EXPLANATORY NOTE



Lighting Science Group Corporation, a Delaware corporation (together with its direct and indirect subsidiaries, “Lighting Science Group”, “we”, “us”, “our” or the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A, (this “Amendment”) to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2016, originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), on April 14, 2017 (the “Original Filing”). This Amendment only amends Part III, Items 10 to 14, of the Original Filing. This information was previously omitted from the Original Filing in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which permits the information in the above referenced items to be incorporated into the Form 10-K by reference from our definitive proxy statement if such statement is filed no later than 120 days after our fiscal year-end. We are filing this Amendment to provide the additional information required by Part III of Form 10-K because a definitive proxy statement containing such information may not be filed by the Company within 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by the Original Filing. For the avoidance of doubt, this Amendment does not change the previously reported financial statements or any of the other disclosures contained in Part I or Part II of the Original Filing.



In accordance with Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), Part III, Items 10 through 14 of the Original Filing are hereby amended and restated in their entirety. This Amendment does not amend or otherwise update any other information in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and with our filings with the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing. As required by Rule 12b-15 promulgated under the Exchange Act, new certifications by the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed as exhibits to this Amendment. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in Part III of this Amendment shall have the same meanings assigned to such terms in Parts I and II of the Original Filing.

In April 2015, Mr. Scarpelli led CBRE’s acquisition of Environmental Systems Inc. (CBREIESI), a world class building system integrator and “smart building” network operating center. Mr. Scarpelli received CBRE’s Global Corporate Service Leadership Award in 2012 and Realcomm’s Julie Devine Digital Impact Award in June 2016. Mr. Scarpelli previously worked on demand response and smart grid strategies at Schneider Electric, a global energy management and automation company. In July 2008, Schneider Electric acquired RETX, an electricity demand response firm that Mr. Scarpelli co-founded in April 2000. Mr. Scarpelli holds a B.S. in management with finance emphasis from Purdue University and an M.B.A. from Loyola University Chicago. Pegasus Capital elected Mr. Scarpelli to serve as a director pursuant to its rights set forth in the Series I Certificate of Designation.



Board Appointment Rights



The certificates of designation establishing the terms of our Series H Preferred Stock and Series I Preferred Stock provide that for so long as the applicable Primary Investor (as defined below) continues to beneficially own at least 2,500 shares of Series H Preferred Stock or Series I Preferred Stock, as applicable, such Primary Investor has the right to elect the number of directors to the Board equal to the greater of (a) two (2) directors and (b) the product obtained by multiplying (i) the total number of directors that constitute the whole Board by (ii) the Primary Investor’s pro rata share of our outstanding shares of common stock and securities exercisable, convertible or exchangeable into or for shares of common stock. Pegasus, our largest stockholder, is the “Primary Investor” with respect to the Series H Preferred Stock and the Series I Preferred Stock. Accordingly, as of April 28, 2017, Pegasus had the right to appoint nine directors (the “Series I Directors”). Currently, Messrs. Cogut, Climan, Crane, Davis, Haney, McGill and Scarpelli serve as Series I Directors.



Family relationships



There are no family relationships between any of our executive officers or directors.



Legal Proceedings



There have been no material legal proceedings requiring disclosure under the federal securities laws within the past ten years that are material to an evaluation of the ability or integrity of our directors or executive officers.



Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance



Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors, executive officers and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered class of our equity securities to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and greater-than-10% stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.










To our knowledge, based solely on a review of copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, each of our directors, officers and ten percent stockholders complied with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to them except: Peter Scarpelli (1 late filing/1 late transaction); Craig Cogut (1 late filing/2 late transactions); Pegasus Capital LLC (1 late filing/2 late transactions); Pegasus Investors V (GP), L.L.C. (1 late filing/2 late transactions); Pegasus Investors V, L.P. (1 late filing/2 late transactions); Pegasus Partners V, L.P. (1 late filing/2 late transactions); LSGC Holdings III LLC (1 late filing/2 late transactions); Denis Murphy (2 late filings/1 late transaction); David Crane (1 known failure to file); and Jonathan Rosenbaum (1 known failure to file).



Code of Business Conduct and Ethics



We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our employees, including employees of our subsidiaries, as well as each of our directors and certain persons performing services for us. The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics addresses, among other things, competition and fair dealing, conflicts of interest, financial matters and external reporting, company funds and assets, confidentiality and corporate opportunity requirements and the process for reporting violations of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, employee misconduct, improper conflicts of interest or other violations. Our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on our website at www.lsgc.com in the “Corporate Governance” section. We will make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics on our website.



Audit Committee



Our Board has established an Audit Committee. Our Audit Committee is responsible for, among other matters: (i) appointing, compensating, retaining, evaluating, terminating and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm; (ii) discussing with our independent registered public accounting firm their independence from management; (iii) reviewing with our independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of their audit; (iv) approving all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm; (v) overseeing the financial reporting process and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm the interim and annual financial statements that we file with the SEC; (vi) reviewing and monitoring our accounting principles, accounting policies, financial and accounting controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (vii) establishing procedures for the confidential anonymous submission of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal controls or auditing matters; and (viii) reviewing and monitoring the guidelines and policies governing risk assessment and risk management.



Our Audit Committee consists of Messrs. Harkleroad and Rosenbaum, and Mr. Harkleroad is the chairman of our Audit Committee. Our Board has determined that each of Messrs. Harkleroad and Rosenbaum are independent within the meaning of The NASDAQ Marketplace Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act. Our Board has determined that Mr. Rosenbaum qualifies under the NASDAQ listing standards as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of the rules of the SEC.

Employment Agreements



We have employment agreements with all of our NEOs other than Mr. Murphy, and below is a summary of their material terms.



Employment Agreement with Edward D. Bednarcik



Effective September 8, 2014, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Bednarcik (the “Bednarcik Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Bednarcik agreed to serve as our Chief Executive Officer. The employment period under the Bednarcik Agreement began on September 8, 2014 (the “Bednarcik Effective Date”) and ends on September 8, 2019, but may be terminated by the Company at any time prior to such date for cause (as defined below) or without cause. Pursuant to the Bednarcik Agreement, Mr. Bednarcik is entitled to a base salary of $400,000 and benefits generally available to other senior executives of the Company. Mr. Bednarcik is also eligible to receive a performance bonus with respect to each calendar year (or partial calendar year) based upon a bonus plan to be determined annually by the Board (or the Compensation Committee) and criteria that will be presented by the Board (or the Compensation Committee) to Mr. Bednarcik promptly following the first meeting of the Board during each fiscal year. The level of such performance bonus will be the sum of (x) up to 50% of Mr. Bednarcik’s base salary, based on Mr. Bednarcik’s satisfaction of the criteria specified by the Board, which bonus will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in restricted stock units of common stock (“Restricted Stock Units”), with 50% of such Restricted Stock Units vesting immediately and 50% of such Restricted Stock Units vesting over a two-year period, in two equal increments on the first and second anniversaries of the award date, and (y) up to 100% of Mr. Bednarcik’s base salary, based on the Board’s evaluation, in its sole discretion, of the Company’s operating results during such year as measured against criteria previously presented by the Board, which bonus will be paid 25% in cash and 75% in Restricted Stock Units, with 100% of such Restricted Stock Units vesting over a two-year period, in two equal increments on the first and second anniversaries of the award date. The Bednarcik Agreement provides that, at Mr. Bednarcik’s option, on each Restricted Stock Unit vesting date, he may sell up to one-third of the stock vesting on such date back to the Company, and the Company will purchase such stock at a price equal to the published closing price of the Company’s common stock on such date.

Employment Agreement with Fredric Maxik



On October 20, 2015, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Maxik (the “Maxik Agreement”). The Maxik Agreement provides for a five-year term that commenced on January 1, 2015 and ends on January 1, 2020 (the “Maxik Employment Period”), unless terminated earlier in accordance with the Maxik Agreement. During the Maxik Employment Period, Mr. Maxik is entitled to (a) an annual base salary of $399,000 (the “Maxik Base Salary”), (b) a car allowance of up to $1,200 per month and (c) benefits generally available to other senior executives of the Company.

Pursuant to the Maxik Agreement, we granted Mr. Maxik employee stock options to purchase an aggregate of 13,964,257 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.11 per share (the “Maxik Options”), 3,126,707 of which are governed by the terms of an Employee Incentive Stock Option Agreement (the “Maxik ISO Agreement”) and 10,837,550 of which are governed by the terms of a Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement (the “Maxik NQSO Agreement”). The Maxik Agreement provides that, unless vested or accelerated sooner in accordance with the terms of the Equity Plan, the Maxik Options will vest and become exercisable in six equal tranches over a five-year period, with the first tranche vesting on the grant date, the second tranche vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date, and the remaining tranches vesting annually thereafter, such that the final tranche vests on the fifth anniversary of the grant date. Each Maxik Option is also subject to the terms and conditions of the Equity Plan. Except as described above, the Maxik ISO Agreement and Maxik NQSO Agreement are materially consistent with the form of Employee Incentive Stock Option Agreement and the form of Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement attached as Appendix C and Appendix D, respectively, to the Definitive Information Statement on Schedule 14C filed by the Company on September 11, 2014.



The Maxik Agreement contains customary confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. If Mr. Maxik’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or if he resigns for “good reason,” we would be required to continue to pay him the Maxik Base Salary for a period of one (1) year following the date of termination, subject to Mr. Maxik’s execution of a general release, and the portion of the Maxik Options that would have vested in the year his employment terminates will vest on the date of termination and be exercisable for 90 days thereafter. If Mr. Maxik’s employment is terminated for “cause,” no portion of the Maxik Options will continue to be exercisable as of the date of such termination.



For purposes of the Maxik Agreement, “cause” is defined as one or more of the following: (i) being convicted or pleading guilty or nolo contendere to any felony or other crime involving dishonesty, disloyalty or fraud with respect to the us or any of our subsidiaries or any of our customers or suppliers, or otherwise; (ii) reporting to work under the influence of alcohol (unless related to lawful consumption of alcohol in the ordinary course of the business) or illegal drugs; (iii) the use of illegal drugs (whether or not at the workplace); (iv) improper actions causing us or any of our subsidiaries substantial public disgrace or disrepute or substantial economic harm, (v) substantial and repeated failure to perform duties as reasonably directed by the chief executive officer that causes, or could reasonably be expected to cause, harm to us or our subsidiaries and which Mr. Maxik fails to cure, if curable, within ten (10) business days of receipt of written notice of such event; (vi) any improper act or omission aiding or abetting any of our or our subsidiaries’ competitors, suppliers or customers to our or our subsidiaries’ material disadvantage or detriment; (vii) breach of fiduciary duty, gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to us or any of our subsidiaries; or (viii) any other material breach of the Maxik Agreement or any other written agreement between Mr. Maxik and us or any of our affiliates, or any breach by Mr. Maxik of certain sections of the Maxik Agreement, in each case, if curable, which Mr. Maxik fails to cure within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of such event.



Employment Agreement with Wayne Nesbit



On September 23, 2014, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Nesbit (the “Nesbit Agreement”) pursuant to which Mr. Nesbit agreed to serve as our Chief Operations Officer. The Nesbit Agreement has an employment period that began on September 23, 2014 (the “Nesbit Effective Date”) and ends on September 23, 2019, but may be terminated by the Company at any time prior to such date for cause (as defined below) or without cause. Pursuant to the Nesbit Agreement, Mr. Nesbit is entitled to a base salary of $300,000 and benefits generally available to other employees. Mr. Nesbit is also entitled to relocation assistance of up to $15,000, which includes without limitation temporary lodging while in the process of searching for permanent housing. Mr. Nesbit is also eligible to receive a performance bonus with respect to each calendar year (or partial calendar year) based upon a bonus plan to be determined annually by the Board (or the Compensation Committee) and criteria that will be presented by the Board (or the Compensation Committee) to Mr. Nesbit promptly following the first meeting of the Board during each fiscal year. The level of such performance bonus will be the sum of (x) up to 50% of Mr. Nesbit’s base salary, based on Mr. Nesbit’s satisfaction of the criteria specified by the Board, which bonus will be paid 50% in cash and 50% in Restricted Stock Units, and (y) up to 100% of Mr. Nesbit’s base salary, based on criteria determined by the Board, in its sole discretion related to the Company’s operating results during such year, which bonus will be paid 100% in Restricted Stock Units. The Nesbit Agreement provides thatany Restricted Stock Unit awards will vest in two equal increments on the first and second anniversaries of the award date (but in the event that a vesting according to the above schedule would be after the fifth anniversary of the Nesbit Effective Date, such vesting shall be accelerated to the last business day proceeding the fifth anniversary of the Nesbit Effective Date), and at Mr. Nesbit’s option, on each Restricted Stock Unit vesting date he may sell up to one-third of the stock vesting on such date back to the Company, and the Company will purchase such stock at a price equal to the published closing price of the Company’s common stock on such date.










In connection with his appointment, Mr. Nesbit was also granted options to purchase an aggregate of 12,300,000 shares of common stock on October 7, 2014, at an exercise price of $0.18 per share, subject to the Equity Plan.

For purposes of the Nesbit Agreement, “cause” is defined as:(i) being convicted or pleading guilty or no contest to any felony or other crime involving dishonesty, disloyalty or fraud with respect to us or any of our customers or suppliers, or otherwise, (ii) reporting to work under the influence of alcohol or illegal drugs, (iii) the use of illegal drugs (whether or not at the workplace), (iv) improper actions causing us substantial public disgrace or disrepute or substantial economic harm, (v) substantial and repeated failure to perform duties as reasonably directed by the Chief Executive Officer that causes, or could reasonably be expected to cause, harm to us and which Mr. Nesbit fails to cure, if curable, within ten (10) business days of receipt of written notice of such event, (vi) any improper act or omission aiding or abetting a competitor, supplier or customer of ours to the material disadvantage or detriment of us, (vii) breach of fiduciary duty, gross negligence or willful misconduct with respect to the Company or (viii) any other material breach of the Nesbit Agreement or any other written agreement between Mr. Nesbit and the Company or any of its affiliates, or any breach by Mr. Nesbit of certain sections of the Nesbit Agreement, in either case, if curable, which Mr. Nesbit fails to cure within thirty (30) days of receipt of written notice of such event.



For purposes of the Nesbit Agreement, “good reason“ means if Mr. Nesbit resigns from employment with us prior to the end of the employment period as a result of (i) our reduction of the amount of his base salary, (ii) material diminution in Mr. Nesbit's duties, title or position, or (iii) our material breach of the Nesbit Agreement; provided that (a) written notice of Mr. Nesbit's resignation for good reason must be delivered to us within thirty (30) days after the occurrence of any such event in order for Mr. Nesbit's resignation with good reason to be effective, (b) we shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice during which we may remedy the occurrence giving rise to the claim for good reason termination, if applicable, and, if we cure such occurrence within such thirty (30)-day period, there shall be no good reason and (c) Mr. Nesbit must actually resign within sixty (60) days following the event constituting good reason.



Equity Compensation Plan Information



Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan



We currently have one equity-based compensation plan, the 2012 Amended and Restated Equity-Based Compensation Plan (the “Equity Plan”). Awards granted under the Equity Plan may include incentive stock options, which are qualified under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”), stock options other than incentive stock options, which are not qualified under Section 422 of the Code, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, phantom stock, bonus stock and awards in lieu of obligations, dividend equivalents and other stock-based awards. As of December 31, 2016, there were 155.0 million shares authorized for issuance under the Equity Plan and 90.4 million shares remaining for future grants. Awards may be granted to employees, members of the Board, and consultants. The Equity Plan is generally administered by the Compensation Committee. Vesting periods and terms for awards are determined by the plan administrator. The exercise price of each stock option or stock appreciation right must be equal to or greater than the market price of the Company’s stock on the date of grant and no stock option or stock appreciation right granted may have a term in excess of ten years.










2011 Employee Stock Purchase Plan



On February 10, 2011, the Board adopted the Lighting Science Group Corporation 2011 Employee Stock Purchase Program (the “2011 ESPP”).



All of our employees and any employees of any of our designated subsidiaries are eligible to participate in the 2011 ESPP, subject to certain exceptions. The total number of shares of common stock that may be purchased by eligible employees under the 2011 ESPP is 2.0 million shares, subject to adjustment. The 2011 ESPP is a qualified employee stock purchase plan under Section 423 of the Code and was approved by our stockholders at the annual meeting on August 10, 2011.



The purpose of the 2011 ESPP is to provide our employees and employees of our designated subsidiaries with an opportunity to acquire a proprietary interest in the Company. Accordingly, the 2011 ESPP offers eligible employees the opportunity to purchase shares of our common stock at a discount to the market value through voluntary systematic payroll deductions. The purchase price for each purchase period will be 85% of the fair market value of a share of our common stock on the purchase date, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. Unless sooner terminated by the Board, the 2011 ESPP will remain in effect until December 31, 2020.



The following table sets forth information as of December 31, 2016, with respect to compensation plans under which shares of our common stock could have been issued.

Estimated Benefits and Payments upon Termination of Employment or Change of Control



We have entered into employment agreements with each of our NEOs other than Mr. Murphy, which provide severance benefits in the event the executive officer’s employment is terminated by us without cause or the executive officer is terminated without cause in connection with a change in control, in consideration of a release of potential claims and other customary covenants. These benefits range from 6 months to 12 months of their base salary. In addition, all stock options held by our NEOs provide for full acceleration of unvested stock options upon a change of control of our Company. Our Board and Compensation Committee have determined it appropriate to have these termination-related benefits in place to preserve morale and productivity, and encourage retention in the face of potentially disruptive circumstances that might cause an executive to be concerned that his or her employment is in jeopardy or that might involve an actual or rumored change in control of our Company. We believe that our change of control benefits are generally in line with packages offered to executives in our industry.










The following table describes the potential payments and benefits upon termination of our NEOs’ employment before or after a change in control of our Company as described above, as if each officer’s employment terminated as of December 31, 2016.

Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management and Related Stockholder Matters.



Stock Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management



The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of common stock as of April 26, 2017 by each person known to us to own beneficially 5% or more of the outstanding common stock, each director, named executive officers and the directors and executive officers as a group. The persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock owned by them, unless otherwise noted. Percentage of ownership is based on 217,787,020 shares of common stock issued and outstanding (which excludes 2,505,000 treasury shares) as of April 26, 2017.



Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC. For the purpose of calculating the number of shares beneficially owned by a stockholder and the percentage ownership of that stockholder, shares of common stock subject to options or warrants that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of the Record Date by that stockholder are deemed outstanding.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence.



Parent Company



LSGC Holdings may be deemed to be our “parent” by virtue of its beneficial ownership of our voting securities. As of April 26, 2017, LSGC Holdings directly owned 133,117,333 shares of our common stock and indirectly owned an additional 20,972,495 shares of our common stock by virtue of its voting and dispositive control over shares held by its affiliate, LED Holdings. LSGC Holdings and LED Holdings are affiliates of Pegasus IV and Pegasus Capital, and they collectively hold approximately 92.5% of our common stock as of April 26, 2017 (calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act).



Related Party Transaction Policy



The Board has adopted a written policy with respect to the review, approval or ratification of related party transactions. The policy generally defines a related party transaction as a transaction or series of related transactions or any material amendment to any such transaction of $120,000 or more involving the Company and any executive officer of the Company, any director or director nominee of the Company, persons owning 5% or more of our outstanding stock at the time of the transaction, any immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, or any entity that is owned or controlled by any of the foregoing persons or in which any such person serves as an executive officer or general partner or, together with all of the foregoing persons, owns 10% or more of the equity interests thereof.



The policy requires our Audit Committee to review and approve related party transactions and any material amendments to such related party transactions. In reviewing and approving any related party transaction or any material amendment thereto, the Audit Committee is to (i) satisfy itself that it has been fully informed as to the related party’s relationship and interest and as to the material facts of the proposed related party transaction or the proposed material amendment to such transaction, and (ii) determine that the related party transaction or material amendment thereto is fair to the Company. At each Audit Committee meeting, management is required to recommend any related party transactions and any material amendments thereto, if applicable, to be entered into by us. After review, the Audit Committee must approve or disapprove such transactions and any material amendments to such transactions.



In addition to the above policy, because we have entered into a number of transactions with affiliates of Pegasus Capital, the Board established a Committee of Independent Directors in December 2008 to consider the approval of, and to make recommendations to the Board or any committee thereof regarding, any related-party transactions from time to time between us and Pegasus Capital or its affiliates, our executive officers and/or our directors. On June 8, 2012, the Board adopted a charter for the Committee of Independent Directors in order to expand its authority to negotiate and approve or reject related party transactions between the Company and (i) Pegasus, (ii) our executive officers, (iii) our directors, or (iv) any other person or entity that may be deemed an affiliate or related party.



During fiscal 2016, the Committee of Independent Directors consisted of Messrs. Harkleroad and Rosenbaum.Each of the transactions described below was reviewed and approved by the Committee of Independent Directors except for the payments made to T&M Protection Resources.








Issuances of Preferred Shares



On February 23, 2016, pursuant to the Preferred Stock Subscription and Support Agreement entered into on September 11, 2015 with Holdings III and Pegasus IV (the “Subscription and Support Agreement”), we issued 3,000 Series J Securities to Holdings III for aggregate proceeds of $3.0 million. On July 19, 2016, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to Preferred Stock Subscription and Support Agreement (the “Subscription and Support Agreement Amendment” and the Subscription and Support Agreement, as amended by the Subscription and Support Agreement Amendment, the “Amended Subscription and Support Agreement”) to amend the definition of “Series J Securities Offering” to increase the number of Series J Securities we may issue to approved purchasers from an aggregate of 15,000 Series J Securities to an aggregate of 25,000 Series J Securities. On each of July 19, 2016 and November 21, 2016, pursuant to the Amended Subscription and Support Agreement, we issued 5,000 Series J Securities to Holdings III for aggregate proceeds of $10.0 million. In total, we issued 13,000 Series J Securities for aggregate proceeds of $13.0 million under the Amended Subscription and Support Agreement during 2016.



On January 27, 2017, we entered into a Series J Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement (the “2017 Subscription Agreement”) with Holdings III, pursuant to which we issued 3,000 units of Series J Securities to Holdings III for aggregate consideration of $3.0 million on such date. On February 3, 2017, pursuant to the 2017 Subscription Agreement, we issued 7,000 Series J Securities to Holdings III for aggregate proceeds of $7.0 million. On April 24, 2017, we entered into Amendment No. 1 to Series J Preferred Stock Subscription Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement Amendment” and, the 2017 Subscription Agreement, as amended by the Subscription Agreement Amendment, the “Amended 2017 Subscription Agreement”) to increase the number of Series J Securities we may issue to approved purchasers from an aggregate of 15,000 Series J Securities to an aggregate of 25,000 Series J Securities. On April 24, 2017, we issued 4,400 Series J Securities to Holdings III for aggregate proceeds of $4.4 million. As of April 26, 2017, an aggregate of 14,400 Series J Securities have been issued under the Amended 2017 Subscription Agreement, and we may issue up to an additional 10,600 Series J Securities to approved purchasers between January 27, 2017 and December 31, 2017 under the Amended 2017 Subscription Agreement.

On an annual basis, the Audit Committee pre-approves a list of services that may be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm without obtaining specific pre-approval from the Audit Committee. In addition, the Audit Committee sets pre-approved fee levels for each of the listed services. Any type of service that is not included on the list of pre-approved services must be specifically approved by the Audit Committee or its designee. Any proposed service that is included on the list of pre-approved services but will cause the pre-approved fee level to be exceeded will also require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee or its designee.



The Audit Committee has delegated pre-approval authority to the Audit Committee chairman and any pre-approved actions by the Audit Committee chairman as designee are reported to the Audit Committee for approval at its next scheduled meeting.



All of the services rendered by KPMG LLP in 2016 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
