Item 8.01 Other Events.
Our President, Chief Executive Officer, Interim Chief Financial Officer and Chairman, Marvin S. Hausman, M.D. became the Chief Science Officer of Genesis Biopharma, Inc. pursuant to an Employment Agreement dated March 1, 2011 which has an initial two year term. Under the Employment Agreement Dr. Hausman will perform the duties of a Chief Science Officer in charge of formulating the biotechnology strategy of Genesis Biopharma and other tasks and duties as assigned by the Chief Executive Officer of Genesis Biopharma. Genesis Biopharma states in the agreement that it understands and approves of the fact that Dr. Hausman is engaged in other business activities and will continue to do so during the term of the Employment Agreement. Dr. Hausman estimates that he will work less than seven hours per week for Genesis Biopharma. Under the agreement Dr. Hausman shall receive an annual salary of $78,000 and will have access to medical insurance coverage, will be paid $1,000 per month for office expenses and will be reimbursed for all reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his duties. He was also granted two three year stock options, one to purchase 500,000 shares at $1.25 which vests immediately, and another to purchase 2,000,000 shares of common stock for $1.25, which vests in monthly installments. Genesis Biopharma is a biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development and commercialization of drugs and other clinical solutions for metastatic cancers and lethal infectious diseases.
The board of directors of Total Nutraceutical Solutions, Inc., (“TNS”), other than Dr. Hausman, have considered the terms of Dr. Hausman’s Employment Agreement with Genesis Biopharma and have determined that while Dr. Hausman’s performance of his duties as Chief Science Officer could impact the amount of time that Dr. Hausman will have available for performing his duties as President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of TNS, such impact is unlikely to materially impair Dr. Hausman’s performance at TNS. However, the disinterested members of the board of directors will periodically assess the situation to ensure that Dr. Hausman’s performance at TNS is not impaired and that his compensation and reimbursement for expenses is reasonable and not duplicative.
