Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Amendment to Consultant Agreement

 

On August 2, 2019, Pure Bioscience, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Amendment (the “Amendment”), effective August 1, 2019, to the Consultant Agreement with Dave Pfanzelter, effective August 13, 2018 (the “Consultant Agreement”). The Company previously entered into the Consultant Agreement in connection with Mr. Pfanzelter’s retirement from the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and his position as Chairman of the Board, which provided for a $5,000 per month consulting fee, among other items. Pursuant to the terms of the Amendment, Mr. Pfanzelter has agreed to a consulting fee of $100 per hour in lieu of the monthly consulting fee, which the Company expects to reduce his consulting fee overall.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Sublease

 

On July 29, 2019, the Company entered into a Sublease Agreement (the “Sublease”) with SwabPlus L.P. (“SwabPlus”), effective July 25, 2019, pursuant to which the Company will sublease certain office and industrial space for its corporate headquarters. The premises are located in Rancho Cucamonga, California. Pursuant to the terms of the Sublease, the Company will pay SwabPlus rent of approximately $2,333 per month, plus additional payments for real property taxes, maintenance and repair and related expenses. The Company expects to transition to the new premises in September 2019. The Company and the landlord under the current lease have agreed to terminate the current lease no later than September 15, 2019. The Company expects the Sublease to reduce the Company’s operating expenses compared to its operating expenses under its current lease.

 

Tom Y. Lee, CPA, the Company’s Chairman of the Board and, effective August 7, 2019, President and Chief Executive Officer, also serves as chairman of the board of directors and chief executive officer of SwabPlus. Mr. Lee also serves as president of Hermosa Property, Inc., the landlord of the premises subject to the Sublease. The Sublease was considered by the Company in accordance with the Company’s Related Party Transaction and Procedures Policy, and approved by the disinterested members of the Board.

 

The foregoing description of the Sublease does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Sublease, which is filed as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated herein by reference.
