Item 8.01
Other Events.
On May 14, 2015, USA Truck, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), entered into an underwriting agreement (the "Underwriting Agreement"), among the Company, certain affiliates of Baker Street Capital Management, LLC and Stone House Capital Management, LLC (the "Selling Stockholders"), and Stephens Inc. and Cowen and Company, LLC as representatives of the underwriters relating to the previously announced secondary public offering of 2,000,000 (including the over-allotment option, which was exercised in full on May 15, 2015) shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Shares"), by the Selling Stockholders.  The price to the public in the offering was $20.00 per share.  The Company will not receive any proceeds from the offering, which is expected to close on or about May 20, 2015, subject to customary closing conditions.
Under the Underwriting Agreement, the Company and the Selling Stockholders agreed to indemnify the underwriters and certain of their controlling persons against certain liabilities, including certain liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and liabilities arising out of the indemnifying party's breach of the Underwriting Agreement, or to contribute to payments the underwriters may be required to make because of any of those liabilities.  In addition, the Company and the Selling Stockholders agreed to pay certain expenses associated with the offering, with the obligations of the Selling Stockholders limited to $60,000 of certain "road show" expenses unless the closing fails to occur for certain reasons related to action or inaction of the Selling Stockholders (in which case the limit would be $200,000 and the expense categories would be broader).  The offering of the Shares is registered under the Securities Act, pursuant to the Company's shelf registration statement on Form S-3, as amended (File No. 333-202601) (the "Registration Statement"), as supplemented by a preliminary prospectus supplement dated May 8, 2015, and a final prospectus supplement dated May 15, 2015.  The foregoing description of the Underwriting Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Underwriting Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1.1 hereto.
In connection with the offering and sale of the Shares, the following exhibits are being filed herewith to be incorporated by reference into the Registration Statement: (i) the Underwriting Agreement (Exhibit 1.1), (ii) the opinion of Scudder Law Firm, P.C., L.L.O., as to the validity of the Shares (Exhibit 5.1), and (iii) the consent of Scudder Law Firm, P.C., L.L.O.
