Item 1.01     Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On January 22, 2015, Natural Health Trends Corp. (the “Company”) entered into a Stock Repurchase Agreement with George K. Broady (“Broady”), the Company’s largest stockholder and a member of its board of directors (the “Stock Repurchase Agreement”). The Stock Repurchase Agreement provides for the Company’s purchase from Broady in off-the-market, private transactions of a total of 91,817 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will be purchased at the rate of 5,000 shares each trading day following the date of the Stock Repurchase Agreement until all of such shares are purchased. The shares will be purchased each trading day at a per share price equal to the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the preceding trading day, as reported on the primary market in which the Company’s common stock is publicly traded.

 

The foregoing summary description is subject in all respects to the complete copy of the Stock Repurchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.

 

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

 

On January 20, 2015 the Company’s board of directors granted 27,832 and 8,454 shares of restricted common stock (the “Restricted Stock”) to each of Chris T. Sharng and Timothy S. Davidson, respectively. The shares of Restricted Stock granted to Messrs. Sharng and Davidson vest on a quarterly basis over the next three years and are subject to forfeiture in the event of their termination of service to the Company under specified circumstances.

 

Item 8.01     Other Events

 

The stock repurchase program previously announced by the Company on November 5, 2014 was completed on December 17, 2014. The stock repurchase program, which included both open market purchases and the purchase of shares from Broady, resulted in the Company purchasing a total of 359,840 shares of its common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $4.5 million, plus transaction costs. The shares of common stock to be purchased under the Stock Repurchase Agreement referenced in Item 1.01 of this report are in addition to the shares purchased pursuant to the stock repurchase program completed on December 17, 2014.
