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

Election of Directors

 

On June 12, 2019, the stockholders of the Company, based upon the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors, elected two new individuals to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors. In connection with the election, the Board expanded the size of the Board to eight directors. Marc Boroditsky and Marc Zenner (the “New Directors”) joined the Board on June 12, 2019 and participated in the Board’s annual meeting on such date where the Board appointed each of them to serve on the Audit, Compensation, and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committees. Mr. Zenner was also designated as a financial expert on the Audit Committee.

 

There is no agreement or understanding between the New Directors and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed to the Board. Each of the New Directors is not a party to any transaction, or series of transactions, required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

 

As non-employee directors, in accordance with the Company’s Director Compensation Policy, the New Directors will each receive a pro rata portion of the $105,000 annual equity retainer, $60,000 annual cash retainer, and annual fees of $4,000, $3,000 and $3,000 for serving as a member of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee and Corporate Governance and Nominating Committee, respectively. Such director compensation will be based on six and one-half months out of 12 months of service.

 

Compensatory Arrangements

As described under Item 5.07, at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of OneSpan Inc. (the “Company”) held on June 12, 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the OneSpan Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2019 Omnibus Plan”), which the Company’s Board of Directors had adopted, subject to shareholder approval, on February 1, 2019.

 

The 2019 Omnibus Plan permits the Company to grant awards to directors, officers, and other employees of the Company, as well as consultants, independent contractors, and agents in limited circumstances. The 2019 Omnibus Plan permits the issuance of awards in a variety of forms, including (1) nonqualified and incentive stock options for the purchase of Common Stock, (2) stock appreciation rights, (3) deferred stock, (4) other stock-based awards (including restricted stock and performance awards). The Committee may condition the grant or vesting of such awards on the achievement of performance goals or the passage of time. The aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 5,000,000.

 

The description of the 2019 Omnibus Plan is contained in the Company’s definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 26, 2019 in connection with the Company’s 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the “2019 Proxy Statement”), under the caption “Proposal 2 – Approval of the OneSpan Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan”. The above description of the 2019 Omnibus Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the 2019 Omnibus Plan, which is attached as Attachment A to the 2019 Proxy Statement.
