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

     (d) Election of a new director.

     On August 5, 2009, our Board voted to elect Mark M. Gambill as a new director to fill the vacancy created by the resignation of Thomas M. Garrott in August 2008. Mr. Gambill’s election is effective immediately. Mr. Gambill will serve as a director for the remainder of the 2009-2010 term and until his respective successor is duly elected and qualified at the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders in 2010.

     Mr. Gambill will serve as a member of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, where he will replace Sherwood H. Smith, Jr. He is a co-founder and current Chairman of Cary Street Partners, a financial advisory and wealth management firm. Mr. Gambill also serves on the Board of Directors of Speedway Motorsports, Inc., where he is Chairman of its audit committee and a member of its compensation committee. He also serves on the Board of Directors of NewMarket Corporation and is a member of its audit committee. Mr. Gambill graduated summa cum laude from Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia.

     Mr. Gambill’s compensation for his services as a director will be consistent with that of the other non-employee directors at the Company, as described in the Company’s definitive proxy statement with respect to its 2009 annual meeting of stockholders filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2009. There are no other arrangements or understandings between Mr. Gambill and any other person pursuant to which he was elected as a director, and Mr. Gambill is not a party to any transaction with the Company that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
