A. Sliman, M.D., MPH., its Chief Medical Officer purporting to provide notice of a right to terminate his Employment Agreement,
dated January 17, 2017, with the Company for “good reason”, alleging
a
material reduction in his duties, authorities, and responsibilities as an executive of the Company. The Employment Agreement with
Mr. Sliman was by its terms due to expire in December 2018. The Company is reviewing with legal counsel its rights and remedies
and it disputes certain aspects regarding Mr. Sliman’s attempt to terminate his Employment Agreement. In the interim, while

& Development has agreed to assume Dr. Sliman’s responsibilities.
