hopTo Inc. (OTCMKTS:HPTO) Files An 8-K Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers

(b) and (c)

On August 2, 2017, Sam M. Auriemma, Ashfaq Munshi, and Jeremy Verba, each a director of hopTo Inc. (the “Company”), resigned from the Board of Directors of the Company effective immediately. The resignations were not because of a disagreement with the Company, known to an executive officer of the Company, on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices. The Company thanks them for their service.

The Company’s reduced operations do not, in the Company’s judgment, require a six member Board of Directors. The remaining directors on the Company’s board are John Cronin, Mike Brochu and Eldad Eilam.

On August 4, 2017, the Board elected Mr. Cronin to be the Chairman of the Board effective immediately.

Also on August 4, 2017, the Company’s interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, Jean-Louis Casabonne, who had previously notified the Company of his resignation effective August 14, 2017, has agreed with the Company to remain in his current office, based on a significantly reduced time commitment, on a month to month basis, at his current compensation rate under his existing employment agreement, but pro-rated for the reduction in his time commitment to the Company.
