On March 14, 2010, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, Lloyd H. Malchow, passed away while on a previously announced medical leave of absence.
At a meeting held on March 15, 2010, our Board of Directors appointed our acting Chief Executive Officer, John T. Buhler, as our new Chief Executive Officer and as a member of our Board of Directors, filling an available Class III director vacancy created by Mr. Malchow’s death. Mr. Buhler will now serve as our Chief Executive Officer, President and Chief Operating Officer. In connection with this appointment and effective immediately, Mr. Buhler’s base annual salary was increased by $36,000 to $332,815, replacing the temporary $3,000 per month special compensation that Mr. Buhler was receiving while serving as acting Chief Executive Officer.
