Equity Based Incentive/Retention Bonuses

15. EQUITY BASED INCENTIVE/RETENTION BONUSES

 

On November 2, 2012, the Board of Directors consented to grant equity based bonuses to certain key employees and consultants as an incentive to retain their services. Stock incentive bonuses were to vest, and be paid out on May 2, 2013, contingent upon continued employment or service. The stock bonus price per share was calculated based on last closing price as reported on per the OTCBB prior to the grant date for a total of $75,100. Shares were set aside and reserved for this transaction. The Company accrued operating expense ratably from the time of the awards through May 2, 2013, when vested. Of the 61,852 vested shares, only 5,185 were issued. On April 29, 2016, the Board of Directors determined it was not in the best interest of either the Company or the recipients to pay bonuses based on the current and foreseeable share price and cancelled the bonuses payable.

 

On August 1, 2017, Mikkel Pitzner, was appointed by the Company’s board of directors to serve on the Company’s board of directors, filling a vacancy on the board. Mr. Pitzner shall serve on the board of directors and shall hold office until the next election of directors by stockholders and until his successor is elected and qualified or until his earlier resignation or removal. The Company has agreed to pay Mr. Pitzner an annual fee of $6,000 and has issued Mr. Pitzner 2,000,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $25,000. 

 

On August 1, 2017 the Company entered into six month advisory agreement with Wesley P. Siebenthal to provide certain advisory services to the Company and serve as its Chief Technology Advisor. As compensation for the services, the Company issued him 2,000,000 shares of its common stock valued at $25,000.

 

On August 1, 2017, the Company entered into a six month employment agreement with Blake Carmichael, the son of the Company’s chief executive officer and an electrical engineer, to serve as the Company’s products development manager, electrical engineer and marketing team member. Under the terms of the employment agreement, in addition to a monthly salary of $3,600, the Company issued Mr. Carmichael 2,000,000 shares of common stock valued at $25,000. Mr. Carmichael is also entitled to performance bonuses at the discretion of the board of directors.

 

Effective August 1, 2017, the board of directors issued Mr. Robert Carmichael, the Company’s chief executive officer, chief financial officer and member of the Company’s board of directors, 2,000,000 shares of restricted common stock valued at $25,000 in consideration of serving on the Company’s board of directors.

  

As of September 30, 2017, a total of $66,393 share-based compensation was recorded. The share-based compensation of $50,000 was for the two directors, Robert Carmichael and Mikkel Pitzner. The remaining $16,393 share-based compensation was for two service contracts with an employee and an advisor. Since the Company has six months agreements with each share recipient, a prepaid compensation of $33,607 was recorded as of September 30, 2017.
