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

On August 28, 2023, Eugene Robin resigned as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Research Solutions, Inc. (the “Registrant”) and its subsidiaries. Mr. Robin’s resignation results solely from his employment by a new firm whose compliance policy prohibits service on boards of directors generally, and does not relate to any disagreement with the Registrant nor any refusal to stand for re-election to the Board.

Item 8.01 Other Events.

Effective August 21, 2023, the Registrant engaged Jeremy Murphy to act as an adviser to, and to observe meetings of, the Registrant’s Board of Directors. In his role as an adviser and observer Mr. Murphy agreed to maintain the confidentiality of the Registrant’s confidential information, and to refrain from taking any action that would constitute a violation of the Registrant’s insider trading policies or applicable securities laws.

Mr. Murphy currently serves as the Chief Operating Officer & President of ClickTripz, LLC and has over 15 years of experience in the financial and tech industries. The Board intends to nominate Mr. Murphy to fill the seat vacated by Mr. Robin.
