SECTION 1—REGISTRANT’S BUSINESS AND OPERATIONS
Item 1.01. | Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On October 31, 2006, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Auriga Laboratories, Inc. (the “Company”) approved the repricing of options to purchase an aggregate of 2,625,000 shares of common stock previously granted to key employees, including Andrew Shales, our Chief Operating Officer, as well as Christopher S. Walton, Mischelle Hall and Alan Roberts. The repricing resulted in a decrease of the exercise price per share from $2.55 to $1.38, which is equal to the last sale price per share of the Company’s common stock as reported on the OTC Bulletin Board. None of the other terms of the options were changed.
On November 7, 2006, the Company and each of the employees and consultants referred to in the paragraph above agreed to the repricing of their respective options.
The primary purpose of the option repricing is to restore the incentive afforded by options to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock to retain and motivate employees and consultants whose contributions are important to the Company’s future success. The Board believes that options with exercise prices significantly above the market value of the Company’s common stock are less likely to serve their intended purposes.
