Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On March 10, 2023, the Compensation Committee approved a one-time grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which were granted effective March 10, 2023, to Stephen Tadlock and Steven Bender in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Company’s Long Term Incentive Plan. The RSUs granted to Mr. Tadlock and Mr. Steven Bender have a grant date value of $4,000,000 each and will cliff vest on the fourth anniversary of the grant date, unless the recipient’s employment is terminated by the Company without cause after the second anniversary of the grant date, in which case the RSUs will vest pro rata based on the proportion of the time the RSUs are held prior to such termination and four years. The number of RSUs granted to Mr. Tadlock and Mr. Steven Bender were determined based on a value of $4,000,000 each, taking the average of the closing price of the stock for the twenty business days prior to the grant date. Mr. Tadlock and Mr. Steven Bender have been identified as key executives of the Company and these grants are intended to help retain these key executives.
