(d) Election of Director.
On June 26, 2024, the Board of Directors of Intrusion Inc. (“Intrusion” or the “Company”) filled a vacant Board seat by appointing Dion Hinchcliffe to serve as a member of the Board of Directors effective as of the close of business on July 1, 2024, until the next annual meeting of stockholders, at which time Mr. Hinchcliffe has been nominated to stand for election.
Mr. Hinchcliffe, age 54, is currently Vice President of CIO Practice at The Futurum Group and an executive fellow at Dartmouth College’s Tuck Center for Digital Strategies. Prior to joining the Futurum Group, Mr. Hinchcliffe was VP and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research from 2017 through May 2024 where he researched and advised clients on the issues of enterprise technology leadership, digital transformation, and stakeholder experience. Mr. Hinchcliffe is a veteran of enterprise IT and several Internet startups and has extensive practical experience with enterprise strategy and operational issues and is a widely followed commentator and industry analyst for ZDNet. Mr. Hinchcliffe is also a frequent keynote speaker and co-author of two books on intersection of technology and business including Web 2.0 Architectures from O'Reilly as well as the bestselling Social Business By Design (John Wiley & Son.)
The Board considers Mr. Hinchcliffe to be an independent director under the Company’s categorical standards of independence and applicable Nasdaq requirements. As a non-management member of the Board, Mr. Hinchcliffe will receive the compensation paid to non-management directors for service on the Board and its committees. Specifically, the cash component of non-management director compensation currently consists of (i) an annual retainer of $30,000, payable in quarterly installments of $7,500; and (ii) an additional annual fee ranging from $7,500 to $18,000 depending on Committee appointment.
Equity awards are another element of non-management director compensation. Each non-management director currently receives annually, if and as approved by the Board, a restricted stock unit award. Under Intrusion’s current compensation program for non-management directors, the annual restricted stock award is not to exceed the number of restricted shares obtained by dividing $70,000 by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. While the Board has the flexibility to determine at the time of each grant the vesting provisions for that grant, historically the stock option awards vest one (1) year following the date of grant.
As Mr. Hinchcliffe was elected within the overall Annual Meeting timeframe, the amount of his annual retainer and restricted stock award is consistent with the amounts to be paid to the other non-management directors for service on the Board and its committees.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Hinchcliffe and any other person pursuant to which he was selected either as a director, and there have been no transactions since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, nor are there any currently proposed transactions, regarding Mr. Hinchcliffe that are required to be disclosed by Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
