Litigation and Other

The Company is subject, from time to time, to claims by third parties under various legal disputes. The defense of such claims, or any adverse outcome relating to any such claims, could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and cash flows. At March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company did not have any pending legal actions.

Employment Agreement and Deferred Compensation Plan

On February 1, 2021, the Company entered into an employment agreement with its new Director of Clinical Operations (the “Director”). Per the terms of the agreement and upon the establishment of a bonus program approved by the Board, the Director is entitled to receive a cash bonus with a target amount of no less than 20% of the then-current base salary. The bonus is subject to achievement of annual bonus metrics set by the Board. The term of the agreement will continue in effect until notice is provided for termination by either party. If the termination of the agreement is related to a change of control, the Director is entitled to receive a change of control termination payment equal to 50% of the then-current base salary and 50% of the bonus for the year in which the termination occurs.
