On November 14, 2012 we executed a consulting agreement with professor Camillo Ricordi. Prof. Ricordi has agreed to be appointed to our Board of Advisor’s committee, and we will pay Prof. Ricordi an hourly fee of $300 for attending in person meetings and $200 for attending meetings via conference call. We will also grant Prof. Ricordi 100,000 stock options. The options will be subject to our stock option plan and will have vesting provisions. Prof. Ricordi will also be reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred for carrying out consulting business.
The agreement is for an indefinite period unless terminated by either party with 30 days advance written notice to the other party.
Considered one of the world’s leading experts in cell transplantation, Prof. Ricordi is the Stacy Joy Goodman Professor of Surgery, Distinguished Professor of Medicine, Professor of Biomedical Engineering, and Microbiology and Immunology at the University of Miami Diabetes Research Institute.
