Per the terms of her previously filed Engagement Letter, dated January 31, 2011, Ms. Graves will remain a consultant to the Company during the transition. Further, on May 7, 2012, in recognition of Ms. Graves’ service as Interim Chief Financial Officer for the Company and her continued assistance as a consultant through the transition period, the board of directors (the “Board”) approved the acceleration of the vesting of 33,333 shares of Common Stock under the SAR Agreement (defined below) effective upon the date that is six months following her termination of service as Interim Chief Financial Officer (the “Acceleration Date”), provided that Ms. Graves, individually or through an entity that she controls, remains a consultant to the Company through the Acceleration Date. Pursuant to the terms of the SAR Agreement, any remaining unvested Common Stock Appreciation Rights shall be forfeited upon termination of her engagement as a consultant for the Company. As previously reported on Form 4 filed with the SEC on April 26, 2011, the Board granted Ms. Graves, 100,000 shares of Common Stock Appreciation Rights for the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.0001 pursuant to a Cash-Only Stock Appreciation Right Agreement dated April 26, 2011 (the “SAR Agreement”). Under the Agreement, the SARs were to vest in three annual installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant.
