Mr. Dargan shall be compensated through the issuance of an option to purchase 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, at a strike price of $0.69 per share which is equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on February 10, 2017, to expire February 10, 2027, and to vest over the term of the engagement with 125,000 shares having vested as of February 10, 2017, and the remaining shares to vest 25,000 shares monthly beginning March 1, 2017, and each month thereafter, so long as this Agreement is in full force and effect.
Mr. Dargan will continue to be reimbursed for business expenses he incurs in connection with the performance of his services as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer.
