On March 22, 2016, Alarm.com Holdings, Inc. (the Company) filed its proxy statement relating to its 2016 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the Proxy Statement) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, and made the Proxy Statement available on the Internet on that same day. Subsequent to that date, the Board of Directors (the Board) of the Company appointed a new Class III director, Darius G. Nevin, and increased the authorized number of directors of the Company from six (6) to seven (7). These additional materials has been prepared to provide stockholders with information regarding the Companys new director that would have been included in the Proxy Statement had Mr. Nevin been appointed prior to the filing of the Proxy Statement. You are not being asked to vote for or ratify the appointment of Mr. Nevin at the upcoming Annual Meeting, as the Class III directors are not being elected by Company stockholders at this meeting. These additional materials are being provided solely for informational purposes.
Appointment of New Director
Effective April 15, 2016, Darius G. Nevin was appointed as a Class III director of the Company to serve until the Companys 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Mr. Nevin was also appointed to serve as a member of the Companys Audit Committee. The Board has determined that Mr. Nevin is independent within the meaning of the director independence standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Mr. Nevin is a member of G3 Capital Partners, LLC, a consulting company and expert advisor to private equity firms regarding the security industry. He is also a member of G3 Investment Holdings, LLC, an investment company. Prior to co-founding G3 Capital Partners, LLC in October 2010, Mr. Nevin served as chief financial officer of Protection One, Inc., a publicly traded company, from 2001 until June 2010. He has served as a director of WCI Communities, Inc., a publicly traded community developer and luxury homebuilder, since July 2013. Mr. Nevin earned an A.B. from Harvard College and an M.B.A. from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Our Board believes that Mr. Nevins experience and executive management in developing and executing the operating and financing strategies at both publicly and privately held companies and his background in public company financial reporting and internal controls qualifies him to serve on the Board.
