Item 5.02 — Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On June 10, 2009, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Electro-Optical Sciences, Inc. (the “Company”) filled a vacancy on the Company’s Board by the election of Anne Egger as a director.
Prior to her retirement in March of 2009, Ms. Egger served as head of the U.S. Sales and Marketing division of Galderma Laboratories, a joint venture between Nestlé and L’Oréal. Ms. Egger was also an Industry Adjunct member of the American Academy of Dermatology for the past 7 years and a member of the American Society of Dermatologic Surgeons Industry Council for the last 5 years.
In March 2009, Ms. Eggers entered into a consulting agreement with the Company. The agreement was for an initial term of three months and has subsequently been extended for an additional three months. The agreement may be terminated by either party upon 30 days’ written notice. Under the terms of the agreement, Ms. Egger is entitled to receive a consulting fee of $200 per hour. The Board does not believe that Ms. Egger’s consulting agreement would interfere with the exercise of her independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and thus deems her to be an independent director.
Ms. Egger will be provided with the standard compensation package available to all of the Company’s non-employee directors.
