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

 

(a) Resignation of Dr. Bhupendra Kumar Modi

 

On June 4, 2023, Dr. Bhupendra Kumar Modi stepped down as Chairman of the Board and a director of Organicell.

 

(b) Appointment of New Executive Officers and a New Director

 

On June 6, 2023, our board of directors appointed Harry Leider, M.D., M.B.A., as Chief Executive Officer and a member of the board of directors and Howard J. Golub, M.D., as Executive Vice President and Chief Science Officer. Ian T. Bothwell, who has served as Interim Chief Executive Officer since November 2022, in addition to his position as Chief Financial Officer will continue in his Chief Financial Officer role.

 

The following is a brief description of the background and business experience of Dr. Leider and Dr. Golub.

 

Dr. Harry Leider, 65, has over 25 years of experience as a senior healthcare executive in a variety of innovative high growth healthcare companies. Prior to joining Organicell, he served as the Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of Apos Health from December 2022 to May 2023. From May 2018 to October 2022, Dr. Leider was the Chief Medical Officer and Executive Vice President of Gelesis, Inc., a biotech company that successfully developed an FDA-cleared therapy for obesity and went public in January 2022. Prior thereto, he served from 2013 to 2018 as the Chief Medical Officer and Group Vice President of Walgreens Boots Alliance. He has also previously served as a member of the Boards of Directors of Alivio Therapeutics, TytoCare and Mobile Help. In addition, Dr. Leider has served on the faculty of Harvard Medical School and the John Hopkins Carey School of Business, where he taught healthcare marketing. He received his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, an M.B.A. from the University of Washington where he was a Robert Wood Johnson Clinical Scholar, and his B.A., summa cum laude from Pennsylvania State University.

 

Dr. Howard L. Golub, 70, has been a principal in Care-Safe LLC (a senior clinical development consulting company whose corporate clients included biotech/drug/medical device companies) since 2008. He also currently serves as one of the Clinical Leads for the RADx N.I.H. program (designed to help companies develop and accelerate accurate COVID-19 testing and bring them to market). From 2014 to 2016, he was Vice President of Research and Development at Walgreens Boots Alliance, helping to develop a program that utilized its massive customer database to aid in clinical trial patient recruitment. In 1996, he was one of the founders of CareStat LLC, a 150 person CRO in the Boston area, where he served as Chief Executive Officer until the company was sold in 2008. For 20 years prior thereto, Dr. Golub was a serial entrepreneur, being one of the founders and an executive officer of three healthcare companies, two of which were successfully sold. In addition, from 2003 to 2013 he held an adjunct professorship at the Harvard-M.I.T. joint M.S./M.B.A. program where he taught a course entitled “Clinical Development for Private Enterprise.” Dr. Golub received his Ph.D. in biomedical engineering and an M.D. from a Harvard Medical School-M.I.T. joint program in 1983.

 

Organicell has entered into employment agreements with each of Dr. Leider and Dr. Golub.

 

Dr. Leider’s employment agreement provides for a base salary of $325,000 per year and the grant of an option under Organicell’s Equity Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) to purchase 57,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.012 per share (fair market value on the date of grant) (the “Leider Option”). The Leider Option vests in equal quarterly installments over a three-year period, contingent upon Dr. Leider’s continued employment with the Company and expires five years from the date of grant. The vesting of the Leider Option is accelerated in the event of a change in control of the Company (as described in the employment agreement) or if the Company achieves certain market cap valuations.

Dr. Leider will also receive reimbursement for certain temporary housing expenses in South Florida pending his relocation to South Florida, which is to occur prior to December 31, 2023 and reimbursement for certain moving expenses in connection with such relocation. He also shall be entitled to earn a commission of ten percent (10%) of the net profit (sales less cost of goods sold) generated by the sale of any of the Company’s biologic products sold directly by him solely from sources generated by him alone.

 

Dr. Leider’s employment with the Company is “At Will” meaning that his employment with the Company and his employment agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time, for any reason or for no reason at all and with or without “Cause” (as defined in the Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company terminates Dr. Leider’s employment without Cause or Dr. Leider terminates his employment with the Company for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Agreement), Dr. Leider will be entitled to receive an amount equal to one year’s salary as severance, less the value of the Leider Option as vested on the date of termination, as calculated by subtracting the market price for the shares underlying the option as of the date of termination, less the exercise price for such shares, provided further, that the combined amount of the severance payment and market value of the Leider Option shall not be less than $200,000. In such circumstance he will also be entitled to receive a pro-rated share of any bonus earned for the year in which the termination takes place.

 

Dr. Golub’s employment agreement provides for a base salary of $150,000 per year. Dr. Golub will not be a full-time employee, but rather will devote such amount of his working time as the Company deems reasonably necessary to fulfill his duties thereunder (estimated to be approximately ½ his working time). Dr. Golub will perform his duties remotely from his residence , with travel, as required by his position. He will be permitted to continue serving as a Principal of Care-Safe, LLC.

 

Dr. Golub is also granted an option under the Incentive Plan to purchase 50,000,000 shares of our common stock at a price of $0.012 per share (fair market value on the date of grant) (the “Golub Option”). The Golub Option vests in equal quarterly installments over a one-year period, contingent upon Dr. Golub’s continued employment with the Company and expires five (5) years from the date of grant.

 

Dr. Golub’s employment with the Company is “At Will” meaning that his employment with the Company and his employment agreement may be terminated by the Company at any time, for any reason or for no reason at all and with or without “Cause” (as defined in the Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Company terminates Dr. Golub’s employment without Cause or Dr. Golub terminates his employment with the Company for “Good Reason” (as defined in the Agreement), Dr. Golub will be entitled to receive an amount equal to one year’s base salary as severance. He will also be entitled to receive a pro-rated share of any bonus earned for the year in which the termination takes place.

 

Both employment agreements contain customary confidentiality, non-competition and non-solicitation covenants.
