Item
5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements
of Certain Officers.
On
September 1, 2020, we appointed Susan A. Reyes, M.D. as our Chief Medical Officer. In connection with her appointment, Dr. Reyes
entered into a three-year Employment Agreement with us.
Dr.
Reyes, 57, brings over 29 years of experience as a practicing Internal Medicine physician.
She earned her Doctor of Medicine degree in just six-years and was board certified in Internal Medicine in 1994. Since then, Dr.
Reyes has enjoyed expanding her skill set by working with several groundbreaking companies. In 1997, she worked for Hospital Inpatient
Management Systems, which was the first hospitalist group that transformed the efficiencies of “length of stay” of
patients in the hospital and in skilled nursing facility settings. In 2000, she was the lead physician for MD to You in Tampa,
Florida - the first organization that developed house calls for homebound geriatric patients. In 2009, Dr. Reyes became the first
physician to bring house call services to Knoxville, Tennessee and has grown her company to be the largest mobile medical primary
care practice covering East Tennessee. She has been an advisor and served as Medical Director to several home health and hospice
agencies and assisted living facilities in each community where she has resided.
As
compensation, we agreed to pay her an annual salary of $52,000 and she is entitled to discretionary bonuses as may be awarded
from time to time by our Board of Directors. As additional compensation, we granted her stock options to purchase 1,000,000 shares
of our common stock at an exercise price of $0.40 per share, the closing price of common stock as reported on the OTC Markets
on the date immediately preceding the date of the Employment Agreement, with 150,000 options vesting immediately and the
balance vesting in equal annual installments over a period of three-years commencing on the grant date. The vesting date of any
unvested options accelerates in the event of a Change in Control as defined in the Employment Agreement. Dr. Reyes is also entitled
to paid vacation and sick leave and other programs we may offer. The initial term of the Employment Agreement will automatically
renew for an additional one-year term unless either party provides notice of non-renewal.
The
Employment Agreement terminates upon the death or disability of Dr. Reyes, and may be terminated by us for cause, or by Dr. Reyes
for any reason. If the Employment Agreement is terminated by us for cause, upon her death or disability, at non-renewal or by
Dr. Reyes, she is only entitled to receive her base salary through the date of termination and, in the case of termination due
to death or disability, a pro rata payment of the annual incentive earned for the year of termination. If the Employment Agreement
is terminated by us without cause or by Dr. Reyes for good reason, we are obligated to pay her severance equal to one year’s
base salary and any unpaid incentive compensation. In addition, if at any time during the term of the Employment Agreement Dr.
Reyes’ employment is terminated by us without cause within two years after a Change in Control of our company, or in the
90 days prior the Change in Control at the request of the acquiror, we are obligated to pay her an amount equal to 2.99 times
her annual compensation. “Change in Control” is defined in the Employment Agreement to mean the acquisition by any
person of beneficial ownership of our securities representing greater than 50% of the combined voting power of our then outstanding
voting securities.
The
Employment Agreement contains customary invention assignment, non-compete and non-solicitation provisions. The descriptions of
the terms and conditions of the Employment Agreement with Dr. Reyes and the stock option granted to her therein are qualified
in their entirety by reference to agreements which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this report.
