Item 5.02 | Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
Effective March 12, 2018, in connection with Ms. Jones’ commencement of employment, Ms. Jones was granted two “employee inducement awards” (as defined in New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) Rule 303A.08) as follows:
| |
• | An employment inducement award, consisting of a non-qualified stock option to purchase 500,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $1.03, which option shall vest approximately 1/36th each month, if Ms. Jones remains employed through each of the vesting dates; and |
| |
• | An employment inducement award, consisting of a grant of 250,000 shares of time-based restricted stock of the Company’s Common Stock, which shall vest approximately 1/36th each month, if Ms. Jones remains employed through each of the vesting dates. |
In each case, vesting under these stock awards will be accelerated in the event of a change in control, as defined in the applicable stock option agreement and time-based restricted stock agreement.
The foregoing summary of the stock awards is qualified in its entirety by reference to the non-qualified stock option agreement and time-based restricted stock agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K/A and incorporated herein by reference.
