Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

 

Effective March 19, 2015 our Board of Directors appointed Randal D. Chase, Ph.D. to the Board of Directors.

 

Dr. Chase will participate in our existing non-employee director compensation plan. Accordingly, he has received a grant of options to purchase 26,400 shares on the date he was first appointed as a director and will receive a pro rata portion of the annual retainer for serving on the Board and compensation for Board meetings he attends. The options granted to Mr. Chase have a ten year term and vest in equal amounts over three years beginning on the first anniversary of his appointment. The exercise price is $0.15 per share.

 

Mr. Chase has not been appointed to any committees, nor has the Board made any determination to place him on specific committees. If he is appointed to committees he will be eligible to receive a pro-rated portion of the applicable annual retainers and compensation for meetings he attends. There was no arrangement or understanding between Dr. Chase and any person pursuant to which he was selected as a director. Dr. Chase has not been a party to any transaction with us that we would be obligated to report pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K nor has any such transaction been proposed.

 

On March 23, 2015 the Registrant issued a press release (attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1) announcing the appointment of Dr. Chase to the Board of Directors
