Section 5 - Corporate Governance and Management

 

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

 

On February 16, 2018, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Torotel Inc. (“Torotel”) appointed S. Scott Still to serve as a member of the Board, effective immediately, filling the previously vacant Director Position 1. Although Director Position 1 is in a class that would otherwise be presented for election by shareholders in September 2020, pursuant to Torotel’s bylaws, Mr. Still’s term will extend only until the annual meeting of shareholders scheduled to be held on September 17, 2018, when he will be presented for election by shareholders.

 

Mr. Still will not be appointed to any Committees of the Board until after the annual meeting of shareholders scheduled to be held on September 17, 2018.

 

There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Still and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed as a director.  Additionally, there have been no transactions involving Mr. Still that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, and there is no family relationship between Mr. Still and any director or executive officer of Torotel.

 

Mr. Still will participate in Torotel’s standard director compensation arrangements currently applicable to non-employee directors. Under the terms of those arrangements, Mr. Still will receive a retainer of $16,000 per year for his service on the Board, and he will receive $400 for each Board committee meeting attended.

 

S. Scott Still is founder and principal of Myriad Aerospace Consulting which provides strategic planning and implementation, operational execution, and M&A support. Currently, through Myriad, Scott is serving as CEO of Jet Midwest Aerospace (“JMW”) leading a turnaround/growth effort for the company.  JMW is a full-service commercial aircraft provider offering complete end-of-life and product support solutions. He has over 30 years of leadership experience in the aerospace and defense industry, which includes ten years as CEO and President with Sargent Aerospace and Defense, a global supplier of precision-engineered customized components serving both the Commercial, Military and Defense markets.
