Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(a) On September 29, 2012, Mr. David Nicholas tendered his resignation as a director of New Frontier Media, Inc. (the “Company”), effective immediately. Mr. Nicholas indicated that he was resigning as a result of a disagreement with decisions made by the special committee of the Company’s board of directors, which solely consists of independent directors. Mr. Nicholas’s resignation follows the decision by the board of directors (based on the recommendation of its nominating committee) not to nominate Mr. Nicholas for re-election and to ask for his resignation. As a result of his resignation, Mr. Nicholas also ceased to be a member of the audit committee of the Company’s board of directors as of such date. A copy of Mr. Nicholas’s resignation letter is attached hereto as Exhibit 17.1.
On October 4, 2012, the Company responded to Mr. Nicholas by means of the letter attached hereto as Exhibit 17.2. In accordance with the requirements of Item 5.02 of Form 8-K, the Company has provided Mr. Nicholas a copy of the disclosures it is making in this report (including the Company letter referenced in the immediately preceding sentence) no later than the day of filing this report with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company has provided Mr. Nicholas with the opportunity to furnish it as promptly as possible with a letter addressed to the Company stating whether he agrees with the statements made by the Company in response to this Item 5.02 and, if not, stating the respects in which he does not agree.
