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

 

On March 14, 2023, the board of directors (the “Board”) of SRAX, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Alan Urban to replace Michael Malone as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer pursuant to an employment offer letter, which sets forth the terms of Mr. Urban’s services as Chief Financial Officer and his compensation arrangement (the “Offer Letter”). The Offer Letter was entered into as of March 14, 2023 (the “Appointment Date”). Mr. Malone remains a non-officer employee of the Company pursuant to his original employment agreement, dated December 15, 2018.

 

Mr. Urban, age 54, has over 30 years of experience in corporate finance and accounting. Mr. Urban serves on the board of directors of GT Biopharma (NASDAQ:GTBP), and has previously served in numerous senior management positions, including: Chief Financial Officer of Research Solutions (NASDAQ: RSSS) a leader in SaaS workflow solutions for information driven companies, from 2011 through 2021; Chief Financial Officer of ReachLocal (NASDAQ: RLOC) an internet marketing company that ranked #1 on Deloitte’s Tech Fast 500 List, from 2007 to 2009; and CFO of Creek Road Miners (OTCQB:CRKR), a bitcoin mining firm, in 2022. Mr. Urban has also held positions as an audit and tax manager in public accounting, and as an internal auditor. He holds a B.S. in Business, with a concentration in Accounting Theory and Practice, from California State University, Northridge and has been a Certified Public Accountant (currently inactive) since 1998.

 

Pursuant to the Offer Letter, Mr. Urban will receive a yearly base salary of $300,000 (the “Base Salary”). Further, Mr. Urban will be eligible to an annual bonus (pro-rated for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023) of $150,000, subject to the Board’s discretion. Mr. Urban will also receive a stop option to purchase up to 300,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, in accordance with the Company’s equity compensation plan, with an exercise price equal to $0.44, which equals the closing price of the Company’s common stock as of the Appointment Date (the “Option Grant”). The Option Grant is conditioned upon Mr. Urban’s completion of the Company’s delinquent reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), including the Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended June 30, 2022, and September 30, 2022, and the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 (collectively, the “Delinquent Reports”). The Option Grant will vest as follows: 40% to vest upon completion of the Delinquent Reports during the term of Mr. Urban’s employment, and the remaining 60% to vest in equal quarterly installments during the following two (2) year period, subject to the completion of the Delinquent Reports. The Offer Letter also provides for severance benefits equal to six (6) months of Mr. Urban’s then Base Salary if his employment is terminated for any reason other than for Cause (as defined in the Offer Letter).

 

The foregoing description of the Offer Letter does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Offer Letter, which are included as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
