In January 2014, the CEO, for the benefit of the Company, allowed two Bhang shareholders to act in his stead as designees and exercise 87,456 of his Series B warrants under the agreement described in Note 5 that was ultimately rescinded. In exchange for allowing the Bhang shareholders to exercise his lower priced Series B warrants, Mr. Billingsley was named as designee of 87,456 of the higher priced Series D warrants. In January 2018, the shares of Common Stock held by the Bhang shareholders were returned to and cancelled by Mentor and the warrants from which the shares arose were reinstated, see Notes 5 and 15. On March 17, 2018, the Board approved reallocation of the reinstated 87,456 Series B warrants back to Mr. Billingsley and his holdings of warrants were concurrently decreased by 87,456 Series D warrants (although Mr. Billingsley may be designated as a Series D warrant designee at any time).

 

As provided by Board of Director resolution in 1998, the CEO will be paid an incentive fee and a bonus which are payable in installments at the CEO’s option. The incentive fee is 1% of the increase in market capitalization based on the bid price of the Company’s stock beyond the book value at confirmation of the bankruptcy, which was approximately $260,000. The bonus is 0.5% of the increase in market capitalization for each $1.00 increase in stock price up to a maximum of $8 per share (4%) based on the bid price of the stock beyond the book value at confirmation of the bankruptcy. No incentive fee expense was recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017. The incentive fee expense was $0 and $175,997 for the six months ended June 30, 2018 and 2017, respectively.
