The Board also established the close of business on November 22, 2019 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. The time and location of the Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company&#8217;s proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, to be filed prior to the annual meeting with the Securities and Exchange Commission (&#8220;SEC&#8221;).</p>

If a stockholder of the Company intends to nominate a person for election to the Board or to propose other business for consideration at the Annual Meeting, including any proposal made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the deadline for submitting the notice of such nomination or stockholder proposal, including any notice on Schedule 14N, is the close of business on October 11, 2019. Any notice should be delivered to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., 265 Turner Drive, Durango, Colorado 81303, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Any stockholder proposal or director nomination received after October 11, 2019 will be considered untimely and will not be included in the Company&#8217;s proxy materials for the Annual Meeting nor will it be considered at the Annual Meeting.

Item 5.08     Shareholder Director Nominations.
Annual Meeting of Stockholders
The Board of Directors (the "Board") of Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), has established Thursday, January 9, 2020 as the date for the next Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company (the "Annual Meeting"). The Board also established the close of business on November 22, 2019 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and at any adjournments or postponements thereof. The time and location of the Annual Meeting will be as set forth in the Company's proxy statement for the Annual Meeting, to be filed prior to the annual meeting with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC").
Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations
Because the Annual Meeting will be held more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the Company's last annual meeting of stockholders, the deadlines for stockholder proposals and director nominations for consideration at the Annual Meeting set forth in the Company's definitive proxy statement filed with the SEC on June 28, 2018 no longer apply. If a stockholder of the Company intends to nominate a person for election to the Board or to propose other business for consideration at the Annual Meeting, including any proposal made pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the deadline for submitting the notice of such nomination or stockholder proposal, including any notice on Schedule 14N, is the close of business on October 11, 2019. Any notice should be delivered to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, Inc., 265 Turner Drive, Durango, Colorado 81303, Attention: Corporate Secretary. Any stockholder proposal or director nomination received after October 11, 2019 will be considered untimely and will not be included in the Company's proxy materials for the Annual Meeting nor will it be considered at the Annual Meeting. Any stockholder proposal or director nomination must also comply with the requirements of Delaware law, the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws, as applicable.
