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

 

Michael Levin (“Levin”) was elected as a member of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of AG&E Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) at the May 12, 2015 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. Prior to being elected to the Board by the shareholders, the Board appointed Levin as of February 11, 2015 to fill a vacancy on the Board.

 

Levin was recommended to the Company and the Board by Perrit Capital Management, Inc. (“Perritt Capital”), an investment adviser to separately managed accounts and registered investment companies.  Based upon information provided to the Company, Perrit Capital currently holds 419,708 shares of common stock in the Company. Pursuant to an agreement (the “Levin Agreement”) between the Company, Levin and Perrit Capital, the Company agreed to appoint Levin to the Board and then submit Levin as a director nominee to be voted on at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2015 and 2016. The Levin Agreement further provides that Levin and Perrit Capital will not nominate or solicit proxies in support of any nominee other than those proposed by the Company for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders in 2015 and 2016. Perritt Capital can designate Levin or another nominee to serve on the Board under certain circumstances. 

 

Levin serves as an independent consultant to Perritt Capital. He receives a fixed, monthly cash payment from Perrit Capital for his services to them and his compensation from Perrit Capital is not dependent upon the performance of any Perrit Capital investments, including its investment in the Company.   Levin does not hold any equity securities in Perritt Capital and does not provide any information or advice to Perritt Capital on its investment in the Company, including any decisions to vote or dispose of such shares. The Company only recently became aware of his compensation arrangement with Perrit Capital.
