Item 8.01 Other Events.

On July 1, 2015, HealthStream, Inc., a Tennessee corporation (the "Company") announced in a press release that the Company’s chief executive officer, Robert A. Frist, Jr., has contributed approximately $1.5 million of his personally owned shares of Company common stock to the Company, without any consideration paid to Mr. Frist, for the benefit of certain Company employees who are not otherwise eligible to receive equity grants and have at least one year of service with the Company. The press release also announced that the Company has approved the grant of that same number of shares under its 2010 Stock Incentive Plan to eligible employees, which shares will be issued in late August 2015, and will not be subject to any vesting conditions. In addition, the press release announced that Mr. Frist has contributed approximately $150,000 of additional shares to HealthStream, without any consideration paid to Mr. Frist, which amount is equivalent to the estimated Company costs associated with the equity grants, such as administrative expenses and employer payroll taxes which will be associated with the grants. A copy of the press release making this announcement is attached as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
