ITEM 1.01 ENTRY INTO A MATERIAL DEFINITIVE AGREEMENT

On December 18, 2013, those members of the Board of Directors who are “independent directors” in accordance with the Nasdaq Stock Market Rules met in executive session and approved an amendment (the “Third Amendment”) to that certain consulting agreement between the Company and Robert N. Wildrick, the Chairman of the Board of Directors, dated September 9, 2008 (the “Consulting Agreement”).  Because Mr. Wildrick is the Chairman of the Board and the Third Amendment constitutes a related party transaction, generally the Audit Committee would have been responsible for evaluating the transaction.  The Board instead met in an executive session of independent directors in order to increase the number of independent directors who participated in the decision.

Under the Third Amendment, the Company has agreed to indemnify Mr. Wildrick in his capacity as a consultant and to obtain reasonable insurance in connection therewith.

The foregoing summary of the Third Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and provisions of the Third Amendment filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
