Item 8.01 Other Events.
On July 25, 2023, a stockholder (the “Plaintiff”) filed a Verified Stockholder Derivative and Class Action Complaint captioned Garfield v. Gyani, et al., C.A. No. 2023-0755-JTL (the “Action”) in the Delaware Court of Chancery (“the Court”). Plaintiff alleged that in May 2023, the Compensation and Human Capital Management Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) granted the Company’s Chief Executive Officer certain equity awards that allegedly exceeded annual limits in the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan. Defendants denied any and all allegations that they engaged in any wrongdoing. On September 15, 2023, the Board amended the terms of the awards to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to clarify that any awards exceeding the annual limit were void, thereby mooting the Plaintiff’s claims. The Plaintiff and the Company agreed that the Board’s amendment of the awards rendered the Plaintiff’s claims moot. The Company agreed to pay $180,000 to settle the Plaintiff’s claim to entitlement to an award of attorneys’ fees and reimbursement of expenses. On December 20, 2023, the Court entered a Stipulation and Order of Dismissal in the Action to reflect the settlement.
