Material Changes
On March 5, 2015, the Compensation and Stock Option Committee approved a restricted stock bonus award agreement with Jeffrey A. Rogers, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Director. Under the agreement, Mr. Rogers received 10,000 shares of restricted common stock under the 2014 Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks

- 25% (2,500 shares) vested immediately on the grant date.
- The remaining 7,500 shares vest in three equal increments of 2,500 shares on each of the three consecutive anniversary dates of the grant.
- Vesting is subject to Mr. Rogers' continued service with the Company.
The filing does not contain forward-looking guidance, risk factors, or discussion of unusual items beyond the compensation arrangement.
