Under certain circumstances, the Company is obligated to make certain additional payments in the event the value of the stock underlying the RSUs is less than a specified amount on the date of sale by Ms. Flores.
In addition, the Separation Agreement provides that Ms. Flores will provide financial consulting services to the Company beginning on the date of the Agreement through March 31, 2023 for consideration of $225,000, payable in three equal monthly installments.
