On May 22, 2015, our Board of Directors elected Joseph P. Hagan to our Board of Directors as a Class III director. Mr. Hagan’s term will expire at our 2017 annual meeting of stockholders. Mr. Hagan was also appointed to serve as the chairperson of the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors and as a member of the Compensation Committee and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board of Directors.
In connection with his election to our Board of Directors, we granted to Mr. Hagan a non-statutory stock option to purchase 28,000 shares of our common stock at an exercise price of $9.29 per share, which was the closing price of our common stock on The NASDAQ Capital Market on the date of grant. The stock option vests over four years, with 25% of the option shares vesting on May 22, 2016 and the remaining option shares vesting in equal monthly installments over the following three-year period, so that the stock option is fully vested on May 22, 2019. Mr. Hagan will also receive compensation in accordance with our policy for annual compensation of our independent directors, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2015, with the annual cash retainers payable to Mr. Hagan for 2015 to be pro-rated to reflect the amount of time that Mr. Hagan serves in 2015, and the annual stock option grant to Mr. Hagan to be made in respect of his services as a director for 2016 and subsequent years.
A copy of our press release dated May 27, 2015 announcing the appointment of Mr. Hagan to our Board of Directors is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
