Item 3.01 Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing
Weis Markets, Inc. (the "Company") was notified on April 27, 2012 by letter from NYSE Regulation, Inc. (the "NYSE"), that it was deficient in meeting the requirements of Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual, which requires the Company to have three independent members on its Audit Committee. On July 10, 2012, the Company's Board of Directors elected Mr. Edward J. Lauth III as an independent director, effective July 10, 2012. Mr. Lauth was also appointed as a member of the Company's Audit Committee. As a result of Mr. Lauth's appointment as a member of the Company's Audit Committee, the Company believes that it has cured its deficiency under Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE Listed Company Manual and is now compliant with that section.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
The information set forth in Item 3.01 above is incorporated herein by reference. Mr. Lauth will be compensated for his service as a director in accordance with the Company's compensation program for non-management independent directors as set forth on page 18 of the Company's 2012 Proxy Statement.
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
