Chesapeake Energy Corp. CEO Aubrey McClendon informed employees of his pending retirement in an email Tuesday:

Dear CHK'ers: By now you all should have received the press release announcing that the Board and I have mutually agreed to my resignation as CEO as of April 1, 2013. Although this is due to certain philosophical differences that exist between the Board and me, the separation will be amicable and smooth.
