CoreLogic to Add Directors

Santa Ana-based CoreLogic Inc. is adding three new members to its board of directors and has announced the eventual retirement of its chairman, resolving a conflict with one of its largest shareholders.

The real estate data and analytics company reached an agreement with Boston-based Highfields Capital Management LP, its largest independent shareholder, regarding changes to its board. CoreLogic will be adding Douglas C. Curling, John C. Dorman and Jaynie Miller Studenmund to its board, which now counts seven members. CoreLogic also announced that Chairman D. Van Skilling will retire at its 2014 annual meeting.

Highfields, which last year proposed a sale of CoreLogic and has called for a shake-up to the company’s executive management, in turn withdrew its own nominees for the board.

“We are pleased that the board has taken steps to ensure that a truly independent majority will be able to hold management accountable for performance and work with management to drive transformative change for the benefit of all shareholders,” Highfields Chief Executive Jonathon Jacobson said in a statement.

CoreLogic was spun off from Santa Ana-based title insurance company First Ameri-can Corp. in 2010. It has a market value of about $1.8 billion.
