Ms. Devlin-Lebow, age 50, joins the Company from Legends where she served as Chief Accounting Officer from April 2022 to March 2024.

Ms. Devlin-Lebow holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting and a Master of Science in Accounting from Texas A&M University. She is also a certified public accountant in the State of Texas.

In connection with Ms. Devlin-Lebow’s appointment, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Ms. Devlin-Lebow on March 7, 2024 (the “Employment Agreement”). The material terms of the Employment Agreement are as follows: (i) an initial base salary of $300,000 per year; (ii) a one-time sign-on bonus of $50,000 repayable by Ms. Devlin-Lebow if she voluntarily resigns or is terminated for “cause” during the twelve (12) month period following her first day of employment; (iii) eligibility for an annual, performance-based cash bonus with a target bonus percentage of 40% of her base salary, pro-rated for 2024; and (iv) eligibility to participate in the Company’s executive severance plan and other employee benefit, welfare and other plans, as may be maintained by the Company from time to time, on the same basis as generally available to other similarly-situated executives of the Company.
