Item 5.02
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
On January 15, 2020, the board of directors (the “Board”) of the Registrant increased the size of the Board from six to seven members and appointed Jeffrey Sheets to fill the vacancy created by such increase.
 
The Board has determined that Mr. Sheets is independent under the rules of The NASDAQ Stock Market.  There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Sheets and any other person pursuant to which he was selected to serve as a director.  Additionally, there are no related party transactions involving the Registrant and Mr. Sheets that the Registrant would be required to report pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
 
Mr. Sheets has been appointed to serve on the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board.
 
Mr. Sheets will receive compensation for his service as a non-employee director pursuant to the Registrant’s non-employee director compensation policy, as amended.  In accordance with this policy, on January 15, 2020, Mr. Sheets was issued 2,000 unrestricted shares of the Registrant’s common stock.  In addition, he will be paid $12,000 per year, $1,000 for each committee on which he serves as a member, $1,000 for attendance at each Board meeting, and $1,000 for attendance at each committee meeting held separately from the Board meetings.
 
A copy of the news release announcing the Board appointment is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
 
Item 5.07
Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
 
The Registrant held its annual meeting of shareholders on January 15, 2020.  Holders of 23,826,598 shares of common stock outstanding on November 18, 2019, were entitled to vote at the meeting, of which 20,898,160 shares, or approximately 87.70% of those entitled to vote, were present in person or by proxy at the meeting.  The results of the matters voted upon and approved at the meeting are as follows:

Item 8.01
Other Events
 
During the January open trading window for the Registrant, Mr. Mark Harding, President, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, and director of the Registrant, adopted a stock trading plan (the “10b5-1 Plan”) in order to diversify his investment portfolio. The 10b5-1 Plan was adopted in accordance with the guidelines specified in Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the Registrant’s insider trading policies.
 
Rule 10b5-1 permits corporate officers, directors and others to adopt written, pre-arranged stock trading plans when they are not in possession of material, non-public information. Using these plans, insiders may gradually diversify their investment portfolios and spread stock trades over a period of time regardless of any material, non-public information they may receive after adopting their plans.
 
Any transactions under the 10b5-1 Plan will be disclosed publicly through Form 4 filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission when due. The Registrant does not undertake to report 10b5-1 trading plans by other officers or directors of the Registrant in the future, or to report modifications or terminations of any such plans, whether or not the plan was publicly announced, except as may be required by law.
