On August 5, 2024, the Company entered into a transition agreement (the “Transition Agreement”) and a consulting agreement (the “Consulting Agreement”) with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, Tom Fitzgerald, in order to provide the Company additional time to identify, retain and onboard its next Chief Financial Officer. Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement, Mr. Fitzgerald has agreed to remain employed with the Company through December 31, 2024. Provided that he remains employed with the Company through December 31, 2024, Mr. Fitzgerald will be entitled to receive his 2024 annual cash bonus, payable in accordance with the terms of the Company’s annual bonus plan on the date that bonuses are paid to active employees of the Company.
