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

On January 28, 2014, Stephen Munford was elected to serve as a director of the Company to fill the vacancy created as a result of William Nelson’s passing on December 5, 2013. Mr. Munford will serve, subject to the terms of the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as a Class II director of the Company until the Company’s 2016 annual meeting of stockholders and until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier death, resignation, or removal. Mr. Munford has not been appointed to serve on any committees of the Company’s board of directors at this time.

The Company has had no transaction since the beginning of its last fiscal year, and has no currently proposed transaction, in which Mr. Munford has a direct or indirect material interest.

In connection with Mr. Munford’s election to the Company’s board of directors, the Company granted Mr. Munford an option to purchase 25,000 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant, which option is subject to quarterly vesting over 3 years contingent upon Mr. Munford’s continued service as a director of the Company.
