Each such option has an exercise price of $2.50 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of grant, and vests in equal monthly increments over 48 months from September 1, 2017, subject to continued service.  Such option grants are set forth below:

Item 8.01. Other Events

On September 19, 2017 the Board approved cash and equity compensation for non-employee directors, with effect from September 1, 2017, as set forth below:

·

An annual fee of $50,000 in cash payable quarterly (such cash fee was already being paid to the Company’s most recently appointed directors, Brett Shockley and Christine Russell and it was extended to the Company’s other non-employee directors, Gunjan Sinha and Phiroz P. Darukhanavala, with effect from September 1, 2017);

·

An additional annual fee of $10,000 payable quarterly to Mr. Shockley for service as the Lead Independent Director, with effect from September 1, 2017;

·

The grant of options to purchase common stock.  Each option was granted at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the Nasdaq Stock Market on the date of grant, and vests in equal monthly increments over 48 months from September 1, 2017, subject to continued service.  Such option grants are set forth below:

The grants to Ms. Russell and to Mr. Shockley reflect the number of option shares determined by subtracting from 70,000 the number of shares remaining unvested in such director’s original option grant from the Company and, in the case of Mr. Shockley only, an additional 10,000 option shares granted for his service as Lead Independent Director.
