Amendment No. 2 to the 2014 Plan had been previously approved by the Executive Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board of Directors”), subject to stockholder approval.

That summary and the foregoing description of the amendment are qualified in their entirety by reference to the final text of Amendment No. 2 to the 2014 Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference, and the text of the 2014 Plan, which was filed as Exhibit 10.12 to Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2014 and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 7.01. Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

Potential Reverse Stock Split

 

  As has been previously disclosed, in order for the Company to maintain its listing on The Nasdaq Capital Market, the Company’s stock must close at or above $1.00 per share for 10 consecutive trading days prior to December 28, 2015. While the Company’s stockholders have voted to approve a reverse stock split, as described above, the Company is striving to execute its business strategy in such a way so as to achieve the $1.00 minimum bid mark without effectuating a reverse stock split. The Company’s board of directors will be evaluating the Company’s circumstances during the coming months and will effect a reverse split later this year if necessary to maintain its listing.
