Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Principal Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Principal Officers.
On or prior to November 1, 2021, Dr. Mike Chang, the Chief Executive Officer of the Company informed the Compensation Committee of
the board of directors of the Company that he wishes to voluntarily forego a portion of any cash bonus payment that he may earn pursuant to the Calendar Year 2021 Executive Cash Bonus Plan (“Plan”) previously approved by the Compensation
Committee. Dr. Chang explained to the Compensation Committee that the strong financial performance of the Company in calendar year 2021 is due in large part to the tremendous contribution made by all employees of the Company, therefore Dr.
Chang believes it is appropriate to forgo voluntarily a portion of any such cash bonus he may receive, which the Company may use for general corporate purposes. On November 1, 2021, the Compensation Committee agreed to reduce Dr. Chang’s bonus
payment under the Plan by 50% of the amount (if any) that would otherwise become payable to him under the Plan.
