Dr. Hammond received a cash bonus of $24,371.00 and an incentive stock option to purchase 24,513 shares of our common stock, and Mr. Fenzi received a cash bonus of $25,000.00 and an incentive stock option to purchase 25,146 shares of our common stock. The stock options have a term of 10 years and an exercise price of $4.36, the closing sales price of our common stock on the date of grant, and vest in full on February 16, 2017.
