Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e)

On April 10, 2015, the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of HealthStream, Inc. (the "Company") approved the Company’s 2015 Cash Incentive Bonus Plan (the "2015 Cash Bonus Plan"). The 2015 Cash Bonus Plan awards tiered cash bonuses as a percentage of base salary for exceeding certain levels of the Company’s non-GAAP operating income for 2015. For purposes of the 2015 Cash Bonus Plan, non-GAAP operating income is defined as our GAAP income from operations, as adjusted for acquisition related expenses incurred during the year and operating income (loss) from acquisitions consummated during the year. The maximum cash bonus award as a percentage of base salary is 30% for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and the other executive officers who qualify as named executive officers under applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules.

Due to their strategic significance, the Company believes that the disclosure of the financial targets for employees of the Company that do not qualify as named executive officers under the SEC rules would cause competitive harm to the Company and therefore are not disclosed.
