Meetings of the Board of Directors

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015 (“Fiscal 2015”), the Board of Directors held four meetings. The Audit Committee met four times and the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee met once during Fiscal 2015. No Director attended less than 75% of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and meetings of Committees of which he was a member that were held during Fiscal 2015.

In compliance with requirements of the Corporate Governance Requirements of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. (the “NASD listing standards”), the non-management directors of the Board of Directors met four times in executive session during Fiscal 2015.

Committees of the Board

Currently, the only standing committees of the Board of Directors of the Company are its Audit Committee and the Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee (the “Compensation Committee”).

The Company has a separately designated standing Audit Committee established in accordance with section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Gildea, McBrayer, Miner and Minetti. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” not only under the NASD listing standards but also within the definition contained in a final rule of the SEC. Furthermore, the Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Minetti and Gildea are “audit committee financial experts” within the definition contained in a final rule adopted by the SEC.

The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Gildea, Miner and Minetti. The Compensation Committee is responsible for considering and recommending remuneration arrangements for executive officers and directors to the Board of Directors. The Chief Executive Officer of the Company makes recommendations for compensation of executive officers other than himself to the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee did not employ a compensation consultant during Fiscal 2015 to assist it in evaluating executive compensation. The Compensation Committee however did receive independent third party compensation information for reference. The Compensation Committee also did not set percentage compensation goals against a peer group of companies, or benchmark, our executives’ compensation, though the availability to our executives of alternative employment opportunities is an important consideration in the compensation design process. Rather, the Compensation Committee used its marketplace knowledge, background, experience and market information to make recommendations concerning executive compensation. Such duties and responsibilities are more fully described in the Company’s written Compensation and Corporate Governance Committee Charter which is attached as Exhibit “A” to this Proxy Statement.

Nomination of Directors

The Company does not currently have a standing nominating committee or a formal nominating committee charter. Currently, the independent members of the Board, rather than a nominating committee, approve or recommend to the full Board those persons to be nominated. The Board believes that the current method of nominating directors is appropriate because it allows each independent board member input into the nomination process and does not unnecessarily restrict the input that might be provided from an independent director who could be excluded from a committee. Currently, five of the seven directors are independent. Furthermore, the Board has adopted by resolution a director nomination policy. The purpose of the policy is to describe the process by which candidates for inclusion in the Company’s recommended slate of director nominees are selected. The director nomination policy is administered by the Board. Many of the benefits that would otherwise come from a written committee charter are provided by this policy.

In the ordinary course, absent special circumstances or a change in the criteria for Board membership, the incumbent directors who continue to be qualified for Board service and are willing to continue as directors are re-nominated. If the Board thinks it is in the best interest of the Company to nominate a new individual for director in connection with an annual meeting of shareholders, or if a vacancy occurs between annual shareholder meetings, the Board will seek potential candidates for Board appointments who meet the criteria

for selection as a nominee and have the specific qualities or skills being sought. Director candidates will be selected based on input from members of the Board, senior management of the Company and, if deemed appropriate, a third-party search firm.

Candidates for Board membership must possess the background, skills and expertise to make significant contributions to the Board, to the Company and its shareholders. Desired qualities to be considered include substantial experience in business or administrative activities; breadth of knowledge about issues affecting the Company; and ability and willingness to contribute special competencies to Board activities. The independent members of the Board also consider whether members and potential members are independent under the NASD listing standards. In addition, candidates should possess the following attributes: personal integrity; absence of conflicts of interest that might impede the proper performance of the responsibilities of a director; ability to apply sound and independent business judgment; sufficient time to devote to Board and Company matters; ability to fairly and equally represent all shareholders; reputation and achievement in other areas; independence under rules promulgated by the SEC and the NASD listing standards; and diversity of viewpoints, background and experiences.

The Board of Directors intends to review the director nomination policy from time to time to consider whether modifications to the policy may be advisable as the Company’s needs and circumstances evolve, and as applicable legal or listing standards change. The present process has resulted in the election of two new very qualified directors The Board may amend the director nomination policy at any time.

The Board will consider director candidates recommended by shareholders and will evaluate such director candidates in the same manner in which it evaluates candidates recommended by other sources, as described above. Recommendations must be in writing and mailed to MISONIX, INC., 1938 New Highway, Farmingdale, NY 11735, Attention: Corporate Secretary, and include all information regarding the candidate as would be required to be included in a proxy statement filed pursuant to the proxy rules promulgated by the SEC if the candidate were nominated by the Board of Directors (including such candidate’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected). The shareholder giving notice must provide (i) his or her name and address, as they appear on the Company’s books, and (ii) the number of shares of the Company which are beneficially owned by such shareholder. The Company may require any proposed nominee to furnish such other information it may require to be set forth in a shareholder’s notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee.

Director Compensation For Fiscal 2015

The following chart sets forth the compensation paid to members of the Board for their service as Directors in Fiscal 2015:

Each non-employee director is also reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred while traveling to attend meetings of the Board of Directors or while traveling in furtherance of the business of the Company.

Section 16 (a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance of the Securities Exchange Act

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company’s executive officers, directors and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the Company’s equity securities (“Reporting Persons”) to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership on Forms 3, 4, and 5 with the SEC. These Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish the Company with copies of all Forms 3, 4 and 5 they file with the SEC. Based solely on the Company’s review of the copies of the forms it has received, the Company believes that all Reporting Persons, complied on a timely basis with all filing requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during Fiscal 2015.

Communications with Directors

Shareholders, associates of the Company and other interested parties may communicate directly with the Board of Directors, with the non-management Directors or with a specific Board member, by writing to the Board (or the non-management Directors or a specific Board member) and delivering the communication in person or mailing it to: Board of Directors, Privileged & Confidential, c/o Richard A. Zaremba, Secretary, MISONIX, INC., 1938 New Highway, Farmingdale, New York 11735. Correspondence will be discussed at the next scheduled meeting of the Board of Directors, or as indicated by the urgency of the matter. The non-management Directors are: Messrs. Gildea, McBrayer, Miner, Minetti, Patton and Vizigianakis. From time to time, the Board of Directors may change the process by which shareholders may communicate with the Board of Directors or its members. Any changes in this process will be posted on the Company’s website or otherwise publicly disclosed.

Director Independence

The Company is required to have a Board of Directors a majority of whom are “independent” as defined by the NASD listing standards and to disclose in the proxy statement for each annual meeting those Directors that the Board of Directors has determined to be independent. Based on such definition, the Board of Directors has determined that all Directors other than Mr. McManus, who is an officer of the Company, and Mr. Vizirgianakis, who was an affiliate of the Company’s South African distributor, are independent.

The Company is required to have an audit committee of at least three members composed solely of independent Directors. The Board of Directors is required under the NASD listing standards to affirmatively determine the independence of each Director on the Audit Committee. The Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” not only under the NASD listing standards but also within the definition contained in a final rule of the SEC. Furthermore, the Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Gildea and Minetti are “audit committee financial experts” within the definition contained in a final rule adopted by the SEC.

Corporate Governance

The Company has an ongoing commitment to good governance and business practices. In furtherance of this commitment, we regularly monitor developments in the area of corporate governance and review our policies and procedures in light of such developments. We comply with the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC and the Nasdaq Stock Market, and implement other corporate governance practices we believe are in the best interests of the Company and the shareholders.

Board Leadership and Structure

Michael A. McManus, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer, also serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors. The Board believes that the Company and its shareholders are best served by having the Chief Executive Officer also serve as Chairman of the Board as Mr. McManus possesses extensive experience and in-depth knowledge of our Company and the opportunities and challenges we face. The Board also believes that this structure is appropriate in light of the size of our Company and corresponding size of our Board and the complexity of our business. We believe that Mr. McManus is best positioned to develop agendas that ensure that our Board’s time and attention are focused on the matters that are most critical to us. The Board does not have a specifically designated lead independent Director. However, Guy Minetti, an independent Director and Chair of our Audit Committee, has typically led the executive sessions of the Board and acts as a liaison between the Directors and management.

Risk Oversight

The Board oversees Company functions in an effort to assure that Company assets are properly safeguarded, that appropriate financial and other controls are maintained, and that the Company’s business is conducted prudently and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations and ethical standards.

While the Board is responsible for risk oversight, Company management is responsible for managing risk. The Company has robust internal process and a strong internal control environment to identify and manage risks and to communicate with the Board. The Board monitors and evaluates the effectiveness of the internal controls and the risk management program at least annually. Management communicates routinely with the Board and individual Directors on the significant risks identified and how they are being managed. Directors are free to, and often do, communicate directly with senior management.

The Audit Committee is responsibility for reviewing and overseeing the Company’s financial statements, including the integrity of the Company’s financial and disclosure controls, its legal compliance programs and procedures, and its procedures for identifying, evaluating and controlling material financial, legal and operational risk.

Board Attendance at Annual Meetings of Shareholders

The Company does not currently have a formal policy regarding Director attendance at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders. It is, however, expected that Directors will be in attendance, absent compelling circumstances. All of the members of the Board attended last year’s Annual meeting of Shareholders.

Code of Ethics

The Company has adopted a code of ethics that applies to all of its directors, officers (including its Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller and any person performing similar functions) and employees. The Company has filed a copy of this Code of Ethics as Exhibit 14 to its Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company has also made the Code of Ethics available on its website at www.MISONIX.com.

Audit Committee Report

The Company has a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with section 3(a) (58) (A) of the Exchange Act. The members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Gildea, McBrayer, Miner and Minetti. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is “independent” not only under the Corporate Governance Requirements applicable to Nasdaq-listed companies but also within the definition contained in a final rule of the SEC. Furthermore, the Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Gildea and Minetti are “audit committee financial experts” within the definition contained in a final rule adopted by the SEC.

Management is responsible for the Company’s financial reporting process, including its system of internal control, and for the preparation of consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States. The Company’s independent auditors are responsible for auditing those financial statements. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor and review these processes. It is not the Audit Committee’s duty or responsibility to conduct audit or accounting reviews or procedures. The members of the Audit Committee are not employees of the Company and may not be, and may not represent themselves to be or to serve as, accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting or auditing. Therefore, the Audit Committee has relied, without independent verification, on management’s representation that the financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States and on the representations of the independent registered public accounting firm included in its report on the Company’s financial statements. The Audit Committee’s oversight does not provide it with an independent basis to determine that management has maintained appropriate accounting and financial reporting principles or policies, or appropriate internal controls and procedures designed to assure compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations. Furthermore, the Audit Committee’s considerations and discussions with management and the independent registered public accounting firm do not assure that the Company’s financial statements are presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, that the audit of the Company’s financial statements has been carried out in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or that the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is in fact “independent”.

The Audit Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors is currently composed of four Directors, none of who are officers or employees of the Company. The Board of Directors has determined that (1) all members of the Audit Committee are financially literate and independent under the NASD listing standards, and (2) Messrs. Gildea and Minetti “audit committee financial experts”, as defined under the rules and regulations promulgated by the SEC. The Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee charter is attached as Exhibit B to this Proxy Statement.

In accordance with its written charter, the Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibility to monitor the integrity of the accounting, auditing and financial reporting practices of the Company. Typically, for each fiscal year, the Audit Committee selects the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries and such selection is subsequently presented to the Company’s shareholders for ratification.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015 with our management; has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1. AU section 380) as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board; has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence; and has received the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees).

Based on the review and discussions of the above, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2015 for filing with the SEC.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

Overview of Compensation Program and Philosophy

Our compensation program is intended to:

•

Attract, motivate, retain and reward employees of outstanding ability;

•

Link changes in employee compensation to individual and corporate performance;

•

Align employees’ interests with those of the Company’s shareholders.

The ultimate objective of our compensation program is to increase shareholder value. We seek to achieve these objectives with a total compensation approach which takes into account a competitive base salary, bonus pay based on the annual performance of the Company and individual goals and stock option awards.

Base Salaries

Base salaries paid to executives are intended to attract and retain highly talented individuals. In setting base salaries, individual experience, individual performance, the Company’s performance and job responsibilities during the year are considered. Executive salaries are reconciled by Human Resources and evaluated against local companies of similar size and nature.

Annual Bonus Plan Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board approves annual performance-based compensation. The purpose of the annual bonus-based compensation is to motivate executive officers and key employees. Target bonuses, based upon recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer, are evaluated and approved by the Compensation Committee for all management employees other than the Chief Executive Officer. The bonus recommendations are derived from individual and Company performance but not based on a specific formula and are discretionary. The Chief Executive Officer’s bonus compensation is derived from the recommendation of the Compensation Committee based upon the Chief Executive Officer’s performance and Company performance but is not based on a specific formula and is discretionary.

Stock Option Awards

Stock option awards are intended to attract and retain highly talented executives, to provide an opportunity for significant compensation when overall Company performance is reflected in the stock price and to help align executives’ and shareholders’ interests. Stock options are typically granted at the time of hire to key new employees and annually to a broad group of existing key employees, including executive officers.

Annual option grants to executive officers may be made at the discretion of the Board in the form of incentive stock options (“ISOs”) up to the fullest extent permitted under tax laws, with the balance granted in the form of nonqualified stock options. ISOs have potential income tax advantage for executives if the executive disposes of the acquired shares after satisfying certain holding periods. Tax laws provide that the aggregate grant at date of grant for market value of ISOs that become exercisable for any employee in any year may not exceed $100,000.

Our current standard vesting schedule for all employees is 25% on the first anniversary of the date of grant, 50% on the second anniversary of the date of grant, 75% on the third anniversary of the date of grant and 100% on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant. We have on occasion issued options that have two year vesting to employees

401 (k) Plan

Our Individual Deferred Tax and Savings Plan (the “401 (k) plan”) is a tax qualified retirement savings plan pursuant to which all of the Company’s U.S. employees may defer compensation under Section 401 (k) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). The Company currently contributes an amount equal to 10% of salary contributed under the 401 (k) plan by an eligible employee, up to the maximum allowed under the Code. We do not provide any supplemental retirement benefits to executive officers.

Share Performance Graph

The following graph compares the cumulative total return on the Company’s Common Stock during the last five fiscal years with the NASDAQ Total U.S. and Foreign Return Index and the NASDAQ Medical Devices, Instruments and Supplies Index during the same period. The graph shows the value, at the end of each of the last five fiscal years, of $100 invested in the Common Stock or the indices on June 30, 2010. The graph depicts the change in value of the Company’s Common Stock relative to the noted indices as of the end of each fiscal year and not for any interim period. Historical stock price performance is not necessarily indicative of future stock price performance.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During fiscal 2015, Messrs. Gildea, Miner and Minetti served as members of our Compensation Committee. No Member of our Compensation Committee is or was during fiscal year 2015 an employee or an officer of Misonix or its subsidiaries.

The number of stock options granted in fiscal 2015 to our Named Executive Officers by person, and their estimated fair value, were as follows:


Named Executive Officer	Number of Stock Options Granted		Estimated Fair Value of Awards at Grant Date
Michael A. McManus, Jr.		225,000	$	1,314,695
Robert S. Ludecker		115,000	$	748,751
Richard A. Zaremba		30,000	$	178,374
Dan Voic		35,000	$	208,103

The stock options awarded in September 2014 had an exercise price of $7.67 (which was equal to the average of the opening and closing market price per share of our stock on the date of grant). The stock options awarded on May 14, 2015 to Mr. Ludecker and on May 22, 2015 to Mr. McManus had the average price of $12.77 and $11.88, respectively (which was equal to the average of the opening and closing market price per share of the stock on the date of grant).

Mr. McManus was granted options to purchase 100,000 shares on May 22, 2015 in consideration of his new Employment Agreement. Mr. Ludecker was granted options to purchase 80,000 shares on May 14, 2015 in connection with his promotion to Senior Vice President.

All stock options in the above table, except 100,000 of the options issued to Mr. McManus which has a vesting period of 100% at June 30, 2017, provide for vesting at 25% per year on the first four year anniversary dates of the grant date, with a stated expiration date of ten years after grant.

Other Annual Compensation and Benefits — Although direct compensation, in the form of salary, non-equity incentive awards and long-term equity incentive awards provide most of the compensation to each Executive Officer, we also provide for the following items of additional compensation:

•

Retirement savings are provided by 401 (k) plan, in the same manner to all U.S. employees. This plan includes an employer matching contribution of 10% which is intended to encourage employees (including the Chief Executive Officer) to save for retirement.

•

Health, life and disability benefits are offered the Chief Executive Officer in the same manner to all of our U.S. employees. We provide additional life insurance policies for our Chief Executive Officer and each of our Executive Officers.

Perquisites are provided at levels to Executive Officers, primarily in the form of an automobile allowance except for our Chief Executive Officer. Our Chief Executive Officer has use of a company provided automobile with driver.

SUMMARY OF POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION
OR FOLLOWING A CHANGE-IN-CONTROL

Severance Agreement and Severance Payments

Except for our Chief Executive Officer, we do not have severance agreements with any of our Executive Officers. As described below under “— Employment Agreement,” our Chief Executive Officer’s Employment Agreement requires severance payments in the event that he is terminated. Upon termination payment of two times his total compensation (annual base salary plus bonus) at the highest rate paid him at any time during the aggregate time he has been employed by the Company plus twenty-four (24) months of premiums for medical dental, vision, hospitalization and long term care coverage is required.

Change-in-Control and Change-in-Control Payments

In the event of a change-in-control, we are required to make certain change-in-control payments to Messrs. Zaremba, Ludecker and Voic. The agreements provide for twelve (12) months base salary upon change in control of the Company. These amounts currently represent, $229,000, $260,000 and $177,000, respectively. In addition, unvested options granted to Mr. Zaremba, Mr. Ludecker and Mr. Voic would vest upon a change-in-control. Assuming the change-in-control occurred on June 30, 2015, the value of unvested options is $394,263, $100,200 and $361,055, respectively.

Employment Agreement

On May 22, 2015, the Employment Agreement, dated July 1, 2014, by and between Michael A. McManus, Jr. and the Company was mutually terminated and replaced by a new Employment Agreement whereby Mr. McManus will continue to serve as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer

(the “McManus Agreement”). The McManus Agreement, effective as of May 22, 2015, has an initial term expiring June 30, 2017 and renews for successive one-year periods thereafter unless terminated by either party not less than ninety (90) days prior to the end of the then-current term. The McManus Agreement provides for an annual base salary of (i) $299,000 through June 30, 2015 and (ii) $325,000 commencing July 1, 2015, and an annual bonus based on Mr. McManus’ achievement of annual goals and objectives as determined by the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors. Mr. McManus also received a one-time grant of options to purchase 100,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $11.88 per share (the “McManus Options”). The McManus Options vest in their entirety on June 30, 2017.

Mr. McManus is entitled under the McManus Agreement to participate in any plans and programs made available to the executive employees of the Company generally.

The Company can terminate the McManus Agreement for cause (as defined in the McManus Agreement). Mr. McManus can terminate the McManus Agreement for good reason (as defined in the McManus Agreement). If Mr. McManus terminates the McManus Agreement for good reason, the Company must (i) pay him an amount equal to two times his total compensation (annual base salary plus bonus) at the highest rate paid him at any time during the aggregate time he has been employed by the Company, payable in a lump sum within sixty days of termination of employment, and (ii) pay premiums for medical, dental, vision, hospitalization and long term care coverage under Company plans for a period of twenty-four (24) months.

Mr. McManus is entitled to severance pay and benefits if he terminates his employment with the Company following a Change in Control (as defined in the McManus Agreement), to provide him with an incentive to remain with the Company and consummate a strategic corporate sale or transaction that maximizes shareholder value. Severance pay and benefits are triggered upon (i) his Involuntary Termination without Cause (as defined in the McManus Agreement) for a reason other than death or Disability (as defined in the McManus Agreement) or (ii) as a result of a Constructive Termination (as defined in the McManus Agreement) which in either case occurs: (x) during the period not to exceed twenty-four (24) months after the effective date of a Change in Control, or (y) before the effective date of a Change in Control, but after the first date on which the Board of Directors and/or senior management of the Company has entered into formal negotiations with a potential acquirer that results in the consummation of a Change in Control.

In the event that pay and benefits are so triggered, Mr. McManus (A) is entitled to receive severance pay in an amount equal to two (2) times the sum of (a) his annual base pay and (b) bonus at the highest rate paid him for any fiscal year during the aggregate period of his employment by the Company, payable in cash in a lump sum; the payment of premiums for medical, dental, vision, hospitalization and long term care coverage under Company plans for a period of twenty-four (24) months; (B) has the right, for a period of (i) ninety (90) days for stock options granted under any of the Company’s Employee Stock Option Plans adopted prior to 2005 and (ii) two (2) years for stock options granted under the Company’s 2005 Employee Equity Incentive Plan, 2009 Employee Equity Incentive Plan, 2014 Employee Equity Incentive Plan and any Plan adopted after the effective date of the McManus Agreement, following his Termination Date (as defined in the McManus Agreement) to exercise the options to the extent such options are otherwise vested and exercisable as of the Termination Date under the terms of the applicable stock option agreement(s) and plan(s); and (C) will vest in all unvested stock option grants with respect to options granted after July 1, 2012.

Mr. McManus has also agreed in the McManus Agreement to an eighteen month post-termination covenant not-to-compete, as well as other customary covenants concerning non-solicitation and non-disclosure of confidential information of the Company.

The Company and Mr. McManus had previously entered into two letter agreements (the “Letter Agreements”) providing for the exercise of vested options by Mr. McManus (i) for a ninety (90) day period after his retirement with respect to stock options granted under certain of the Company’s stock option plans and (ii) for two (2) years after Mr. McManus terminates his employment with the Company in the event of a Change-in-Control (as defined in the applicable stock option plans) and he is eligible for the severance benefits provided for by the McManus Agreement. The Company and Mr. McManus have entered into a letter agreement which makes clear that the terms and conditions of the Letter Agreements continue to be in full force and effect and apply to the McManus Agreement.

Assuming a Change in Control occurred on June 30, 2015, Mr. McManus would receive (i) salary and bonus of $830,000; (ii) perquisites of $40,000 and (iii) the value of unvested stock options of $1,267,211.

Tax deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162 (m) of the Code limits to $1,000,000 per person the amount that we may deduct for compensation paid to any of our most highly compensated officers in any year. In fiscal 2015, Michael A. McManus, Jr. and Robert S. Ludecker had executive officer’s compensation that exceeded $1,000,000. No other officer or director exceeded $1,000,000.

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation awarded to, earned by or paid to our named executive officers during the past three fiscal years for services rendered to the Company:

Stock Options
