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

 

On February 16, 2024, Mr. Ronald Vail and Dr. Jose Vargas Lugo each advised the Company’s Board of Directors that they were resigning their seats on the Board to make way for the appointment of Mr. Brent Omland and Dr. Quinton Hennigh. On the same date, the Board accepted Mr. Vail’s and Dr. Vargas Lugo’s resignations and appointed Mr. Omland and Dr. Hennigh to the vacancies created thereby as Class I directors of the Company. Dr. Vargas Lugo will continue to serve as the Company’s Director of Operations – Mexico and President – Mexico Operations.

 

The Board has not determined which committees of the Board Mr. Omland and Dr. Hennigh will be asked to join.

 

Mr. Omland was elected pursuant to the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) dated August 2, 2023, by and between the Company and Ocean Partners Holdings Limited (“Ocean Partners”) filed as Exhibit 10.2 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 10, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference.

 

Mr. Omland is the co-CEO of Ocean Partners, which purchases gold produced by the Company pursuant to that certain Gold Concentrate Purchase Agreement dated February 1, 2021, as amended (the “Offtake Agreement”), by and between the Company’s affiliate, DynaResource de Mexico, SA de CV, and an affiliate of Ocean Partners, MK Metal Trading Mexico SA de CV, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.1 to the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on August 10, 2023, which is incorporated herein by reference. In 2023, Ocean Partners paid the Company $35.3 million under the Offtake Agreement.

 

In addition to ordinary Board compensation, Dr. Hennigh has been awarded options to purchase up to 400,000 shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share, for an exercise price of $5.00 per share, with such options vesting in 25% increments on each of the first four anniversaries of the date of the award.

 

Dr. Hennigh’s stock option award was issued pursuant to the newly adopted DynaResource, Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which the Board of Directors approved on February 19, 2024. The Company intends to submit the Plan for stockholder approval at the 2024 annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to the Plan, the Company may issue various types of equity incentives, including stock options, restricted stock, and stock appreciation rights, to employees, directors, and consultants. The Plan has a term of 10 years and provides for the issuance of no more than an aggregate 2,700,000 shares of Common Stock over the life of the Plan. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.
