During the years ended June 30, 2012, 2011 and 2010, the Company paid Dr. Gwen Fyfe, a former member of our Board of Directors, approximately $89,000, $490,000 and $97,000, respectively, for consulting services under a Consulting Agreement entered into prior to Dr. Fyfe joining our Board in December 2010. In November 2011, we entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to our Consulting Agreement with Dr. Fyfe. The Amendment provided that Dr. Fyfe would receive a lump sum of $50,000 and that she will continue to provide limited consulting services to us for a period of two years. In addition, the options to purchase 330,000 shares of our common stock previously granted to Dr. Fyfe in connection with her consulting services continued to vest through November 30, 2011 and shall remain exercisable for a period of two years following the date of the Amendment. Dr. Fyfe did not stand for reelection at our December 15, 2011 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Options granted to Dr. Fyfe upon her initial election to the Board continued to vest through December 15, 2011; all such vested options and all additional options received by Dr. Fyfe in connection with her Board service shall remain exercisable for a period of three years from this date. Payment of the $50,000 lump sum occurred in November 2011.

 

In December 2008, we borrowed $5,000,000 and in March 2009, borrowed $1,400,000 from an affiliate of Robert W. Duggan, our Chairman of the Board and CEO, in the form of unsecured loans. The loans bore interest as follows: (i) 1.36% from December 30, 2008 until March 31, 2009, (ii) the rate of interest in effect for such day as publicly announced from time to time by Citibank N.A. as its “prime rate” from April 1, 2009 until the loan was repaid.

 

Total interest expense related to both loans was $43,000 for the year ended June 30, 2010. In accordance with the terms of the loans, both loans plus accrued interest were settled in August 2009 by the issuance of 4,754,870 shares of common stock in our rights offering and the payment of $404,000 in cash.

 

Robert W. Duggan, our Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer, participated in our 2011 and 2010 Registered Direct Offerings for a total of $6,000,000 and $7,000,000, respectively.
