The proposed slate includes two of the four independent directors nominated by Lawndale: Dennis Raefield and Gerald LaFlamme; one independent director submitted by Mace: Jack Mallon; and three current board members: Mark Alsentzer, Dr. Constantine Papadakis and Louis Paolino Jr. Lawndale said Mace will expand its board to six directors from five by the end of October and will appoint Raefield as an independent director.
