HPE adds Robert Calderoni to board under Elliott cooperation agreement

Under the agreement, Robert Calderoni was appointed to the board effective immediately and will chair a newly formed Strategy Committee that will review the company's strategy and opportunities for value creation. The agreement also lets Elliott appoint an employee to the board and includes standstill and voting commitments, which matter to shareholders because they shape board composition and oversight for the next year.
