Material Changes
On February 23, 2018, independent director Robin Richards resigned from the Board of Directors for personal reasons. This resignation resulted in the Company no longer meeting the Nasdaq requirement to have a majority of independent directors on the Board (Listing Rule 5605(b)(1)). Consequently, the Company notified Nasdaq of this non-compliance on March 5, 2018.
Outlook, Risks, and Management Commentary
Nasdaq granted the Company a cure period to regain compliance. The deadline to restore a majority of independent directors is the earlier of the Company's next annual shareholders' meeting or February 23, 2019. However, if the next annual shareholders' meeting is held before August 22, 2018, the Company must evidence compliance no later than August 22, 2018. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is currently identifying and evaluating candidates to fill the vacancy. Management stated the resignation was not due to any disagreements regarding operations, policies, or practices.
