As previously disclosed, the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) appointed Alexander J. Buehler, a member of the Company’s Board, to act as Interim Chief Executive Officer and on March 22, 2022, the compensation committee of the Board approved that Mr. Buehler will be granted on his last day of service as Interim Chief Executive Officer, $17,957 of restricted shares of the Company’s common stock for each week of service (a total of $933,750 annualized), all of which shall vest on January 1, 2023. The number of restricted shares to be granted will be determined on Mr. Buehler’s last day of service as Interim Chief Executive Officer. The number of restricted shares that Mr. Buehler will receive on such date was to be calculated based on the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market on March 29, 2022. On June 23, 2022, the compensation committee of the Board approved an amendment to the terms of this grant, such that the number of restricted shares that Mr. Buehler will receive will be calculated based on the average closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the NASDAQ Stock Market for May 13, 2022 through June 2, 2022.
