Item 5.02: Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

On October 26, 2012, the Board of Directors of the Company adopted a resolution expanding the board from seven to eight directors, and appointed Scott A. Bartos to serve as an independent director of the Company and a member of the Audit Committee. Each appointment will become effective on December 1, 2012, and Mr. Bartos will stand for re-election as a director at our next annual shareholders’ meeting. Once effective, his appointment as an independent director and Audit Committee member will result in the Company regaining compliance with the New York Stock Exchange’s audit committee composition requirement, as set forth in Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual.

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Bartos and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Bartos was appointed a director of the Company. There are no transactions in which Mr. Bartos has an interest requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Mr. Bartos will receive compensation for his service on the Board of Directors consistent with the Company’s standard compensatory arrangement for non-employee directors. A description of the Company’s non-employee director compensation program can be found under the caption “Directors’ Compensation” in the Company’s proxy statement for its 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 4, 2012.

The Company’s press release dated October 29, 2012, with respect to Mr. Bartos’ appointment, is annexed to this Report as Exhibit 99.1.
