Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On August 23, 2016, the compensation committee of our board of directors approved an increase in the annual base salaries for each of our named executive officers, effective as of July 3, 2016. For additional information, please see the section captioned “Executive Compensation” of our Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 20, 2016.

 

Name

  

Title

   2016
Base Salary
 
Chris Diorio    Chief Executive Officer    $ 345,000   
Eric Brodersen    President and Chief Operating Officer      315,000   
Walter Palhetas    Senior Vice President, Global Sales      260,000   

The compensation committee also approved increases in the bonus opportunities for Dr. Diorio and Mr. Brodersen. Prior to the change each was eligible to receive a performance-based target bonus under our 2016 Bonus Program of up to 50% of his base salary, with opportunities for over-achievement. The compensation committee increased these percentages for Dr. Diorio and Mr. Brodersen to 70% and 60%, respectively. The performance and over-achievement goals for these officers are related to various corporate objectives, including continued revenue growth. The 2016 bonus opportunity for each executive will reflect the 50% rate as it applied up to July 3, 2016, and the new rate after that date.
