There will be no physical in person meeting. Your proxy is solicited by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Why am I receiving a notice regarding the availability of proxy materials on the Internet?

You are receiving a Notice because, as of the close of business on September 8, 2021, you owned shares of common stock, no par value (“Common Stock”), or series A convertible preferred stock, no par value (“Series A Preferred Stock”), of the Company. We are providing access to our proxy materials over the Internet pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s notice and access rules. The Notice will indicate how to access our proxy statement on the Internet and will include instructions on how you can receive a paper copy of the annual meeting materials, including the notice of annual meeting, proxy statement and proxy card.

When you execute your proxy, you appoint Sean Feeney and Davina Furnish each as your representatives at the annual meeting. Mr. Feeney and/or Ms. Furnish will vote your shares at the meeting as you have instructed them on the proxy card. If an issue comes up for vote at the meeting that is not on the proxy card, Mr. Feeney and/or Ms. Furnish will vote your shares, under your proxy, in accordance with their best judgment.

What am I voting on?

At the Annual Meeting, we will ask holders of our Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock to consider and vote upon the following items:

1.	Election of Directors

The election of nine directors to serve until the 2022 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

2.	Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Ratification of the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022.

3.	Advisory Vote on the Compensation of our Named Executive Officers

A “Say-on-Pay” advisory vote on the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers.

Who is entitled to vote?

Shareholders as of the close of business on September 8, 2021 are entitled to vote. This is referred to as the record date. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote and each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 0.1988 of a vote on all matters to come before the Annual Meeting, with any fractional vote being rounded to the nearest whole number.

How do I vote my shares without attending the meeting?

If you are a shareholder of record as of the record date for the Annual Meeting, you may vote by granting a proxy. For shares held in street name, you may vote by submitting voting instructions to your broker or nominee. In most circumstances, you may vote:

By Internet or Telephone - If you have internet or telephone access, you may submit your proxy by following the voting instructions in the Notice of Annual Meeting no later than 11:59 p.m., New York City Time, on November 9, 2021. If you vote by internet or telephone, you need not return your proxy card.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

By Mail - If you received a paper copy of this proxy statement, you may vote by mail by signing, dating and mailing your proxy card in the envelope provided. You should sign your name exactly as it appears on the proxy card. If you are signing in a representative capacity (for example, as guardian, executor, trustee, custodian, or attorney or an officer of a corporation), you should indicate your name and title or capacity.

How do I vote my shares virtually at the meeting?

If you are a shareholder of record as of the record date for the Annual Meeting, you can participate in the Annual Meeting live online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/CTLP2021. The webcast will start on November 10, 2021 at 11:00 a.m., Eastern Time. You may vote and submit questions while attending the Annual Meeting online. You will need the sixteen-digit control number included on your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials in order to be able to enter the meeting.

Street name shareholders must provide specific instructions on how to vote your shares by completing and returning the voting instruction form provided by your bank, broker, trustee or other nominee. Even if you plan to attend the virtual meeting, we encourage you to vote in advance by internet, telephone or mail so that your vote will be counted in the event you are unable to attend.

Are voting procedures different if I hold my shares in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee?

If your shares are held in “street name” through a broker, bank or other nominee, please refer to the instructions they provide regarding how to vote your shares or to revoke your voting instructions. If you hold your shares in the name of a broker, bank or other nominee, the availability of telephone and Internet voting depends on their voting processes. Street name holders may vote in person only if they have a legal proxy as described above.

How many votes do you need to hold the meeting?

As of September 8, 2021, the record date for the Annual Meeting, there were 70,935,886 shares of Common Stock and 445,063 shares of Series A Preferred Stock of the Company. Only holders of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock of record at the close of business on September 8, 2021 will be entitled to vote. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote and each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled to 0.1988 of a vote on all matters to come before the Annual Meeting, with any fractional vote being rounded to the nearest whole number. The number of votes to which each share of Series A Preferred Stock is entitled is equal to the votes attributable to that number of shares of Common Stock into which each share of Series A Preferred Stock is convertible. A majority of the Company’s outstanding shares as of the record date must be present at the meeting either in person or by proxy in order to hold the meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum.

Your shares will be counted as present at the meeting if you:

•	vote via the Internet or by telephone, if available;

•	properly submit a proxy (even if you do not provide voting instructions); or

•	attend the virtual meeting and vote electronically.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice?

It means that you have multiple accounts at the transfer agent and/or with a broker, bank or other nominee. Please vote all proxies to ensure that all your shares are represented at the meeting. In the future, you may wish to consolidate as many of your transfer agent accounts or accounts with brokers, banks or other nominees as possible under the same name and address for better customer service.

What if I change my mind after I return my proxy?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the polls close at the meeting. You may do this by:

•	sending written notice to the Corporate Secretary at 100 Deerfield Lane, Suite 300, Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355 so that it is received prior to November 8, 2021;

•	voting again over the Internet or via telephone, if available, prior to 11:59 p.m., ET, on November 9, 2021;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•	signing another proxy with a later date and sending it so that it is received prior to November 8, 2021; or

•	attending the virtual meeting and voting electronically.

How are votes counted?

Shares of Common Stock or Series A Preferred Stock represented by properly executed proxy cards, or voted by proxy over the Internet or telephone, and received in time for the Annual Meeting will be voted in accordance with the instructions specified in the proxies. Any proxy not specifying to the contrary will be voted (1) for the nine Board nominees in Proposal 1; (2) in favor of the ratification of Proposal 2; and (3) in favor of the recommendation in Proposal 3. If, for any unforeseen reason, any of our nominees is not available as a candidate for director, the persons named as proxy holders will vote your proxy for another candidate or other candidates nominated by our Board.

How may I vote for the nominees for election of director?

With respect to the election of each nominee for director, you may:

•	vote FOR the election of the nominee for director;

•	vote AGAINST the election of the nominee for director; or

•	ABSTAIN from voting for the election of the nominee for director.

How many votes must the nominees for election of director receive to be elected?

Directors will be elected by a majority of the votes cast by all holders of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock and Series A Preferred Stock voting together (with each share of Common Stock entitled to one vote, and each share of Series A Preferred Stock entitled to 0.1988 of a vote, with any fractional vote being rounded to the nearest whole number). Abstentions will not have any effect on the election of directors. Pursuant to the Company’s Director Majority Voting Policy, any nominee for director in an uncontested election who receives a greater number of votes “against” his or her election than votes “for” such election shall promptly submit to the Board a letter of resignation to the Secretary of the Company.

What happens if a nominee is unable to stand for re-election?

The Board may, by resolution, provide for a lesser number of directors or designate a substitute nominee. In the latter event, shares represented by proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee.

How may I vote for the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants?

With respect to the proposal to ratify the appointment of BDO USA, LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2022, you may:

•	vote FOR ratification;

•	vote AGAINST ratification; or

•	ABSTAIN from voting on the proposal.

How many votes must the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants receive to pass?

The ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants must receive the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting to pass.

How may I vote on the advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers?

With respect to the advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers, you may:

•	vote FOR approval of the compensation;

•	vote AGAINST approval of the compensation; or

•	ABSTAIN from voting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

How many votes must the advisory vote to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers receive to pass?

The proposal to approve the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers must receive the affirmative vote of a majority of shares present or represented by proxy at the meeting to pass.

What happens if I sign and return my proxy card but do not provide voting instructions?

If you return a signed card but do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted FOR the nine named director nominees, FOR the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants, and FOR approval of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers. In addition, your proxy will be voted in the discretion of Mr. Feeney and/or Ms. Furnish with respect to any other business that properly comes before the meeting.

If you mark your voting instructions on the proxy card, your shares will be voted as you instruct.

What if I abstain from voting?

Abstentions with respect to a proposal are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum. If a quorum is present, abstentions have no effect on the outcome of a vote on the election of directors, the ratification of the appointment of the independent registered public accountants or the approval of the compensation of the Company’s named executive officers.

Will my shares be voted if I do not vote my proxy?

If your shares are held in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, your brokerage firm may vote your shares under certain circumstances if you do not provide voting instructions. These circumstances include certain “routine” matters, such as the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accountants. Therefore, if you do not vote your proxy, your brokerage firm may either vote your shares on routine matters or leave your shares unvoted. When a brokerage firm votes its customers’ unvoted shares on routine matters without receiving voting instructions, these shares are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum to conduct business at the meeting and in determining the number of shares voted FOR or AGAINST the routine matter.

Broker non-votes refer to shares of stock held in street name with regard to which the broker or other nominee holding them indicates on a proxy that the broker has not received instructions from the beneficial owner to vote those shares in a particular manner on a proposal for which the broker or other nominee does not have discretion to vote without specific instructions from the beneficial owner. Broker non-votes will be counted as present for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum but would not affect the outcome of the adoption of any proposal or the election of directors.

Where do I find the voting results of the meeting?

We will announce preliminary voting results at the meeting and will publish the final results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed within four business days after the meeting. The report will be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), and you may obtain a copy by contacting the Corporate Secretary at (610) 989-0340 or through our website at www.cantaloupe.com or the SEC’s EDGAR system at www.sec.gov .

Bergeron, Douglas L. Braunstein, Sean Feeney, Jacob Lamm, Michael K. Passilla, Ellen Richey, Anne M. Smalling, and Shannon S. Warren. Directors will be elected to hold office until the 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified.

There are no arrangements or understandings between any nominee and any other person pursuant to which he or she was or is to be selected as a director.

The Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the nine nominees for Director.

The Board annually reviews the Company’s corporate governance policies and practices in light of the requirements of applicable law and the listing standards of Nasdaq. The Company’s Board meets regularly in executive sessions which are comprised of the independent directors. The Board has determined that all of the currently serving members of the Board other than Mr. Feeney are independent in accordance with the applicable listing standards of The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors of the Company and the Board Committees collectively held a total of forty-four (44) meetings during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021. Each member of the Board of Directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board and Board Committees of which he or she was a member. The Company’s policy regarding directors’ attendance at the annual meeting of shareholders, as described in the Company’s Corporate Governance Guidelines, is that all directors are strongly encouraged to attend the Annual Meeting. All of our directors attended the 2021 Annual Meeting.

Board Committees

The Board of Directors has a standing Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Compliance Committee and Finance Committee.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors presently consists of Ms. Warren (Chair), Ms. Richey, and Ms. Smalling. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent as defined under the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC and under Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”).

Our Board of Directors has also determined that Ms. Warren is an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K. Other members of the Audit Committee also may be considered financial experts, but the Board has not so designated them. The Audit Committee engages the Company’s independent accountants, and is primarily responsible for approving the services performed by the Company’s independent accountants, for reviewing and evaluating the Company’s accounting principles, reviewing the independence of independent auditors, reviewing and discussing with management and the Company’s independent auditor the Company’s quarterly financial statements prior to the filing of the Company’s quarterly Form 10-Q filings, discussing with management the Company’s earnings press releases, recommending to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s annual Form 10-K, and for discussing with management and the independent auditor any major issues as to the adequacy of the Company’s internal controls. The Audit Committee met eighteen (18) times during the 2021 fiscal year. The Audit Committee operates pursuant to a charter that was adopted by the Board of Directors on April 11, 2011, amended on March 6, 2020, and further amended on August 6, 2021, a copy of which is accessible on the Company’s website, www.cantaloupe.com.

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors presently consists of Mr. Passilla (Chair), Ms. Baird, and Mr. Braunstein. The Board of Directors has determined that each of the current members of the Compensation Committee is independent in accordance with the applicable listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. The Committee reviews and recommends compensation and compensation changes for the executive officers of the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Company and administers the Company’s incentive stock plans. The Compensation Committee met four (4) times during the 2021 fiscal year. The Compensation Committee operates pursuant to a charter that was adopted by the Board of Directors in September 2007, amended on May 16, 2013, and further amended on August 6, 2021, a copy of which is accessible on the Company’s website, www.cantaloupe.com.

Our Compensation Committee annually reviews and recommends for approval by the Board corporate goals and objectives relevant to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers’ compensation, evaluates the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers’ performance in light of those goals and objectives, and recommends for approval to the Board the Chief Executive Officer’s and other executive officers’ compensation levels based upon this evaluation. The Committee has the authority to retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant or other advisor, and to be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such advisor.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board of Directors presently consists of Ms. Smalling (Chair), Ms. Baird, and Mr. Lamm. The Board of Directors has determined that each of the current members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent in accordance with the applicable listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC. The Committee recommends to the entire Board of Directors for selection any nominees for director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met three (3) times during the 2021 fiscal year. The Nominating and Corporate Committee operates pursuant to a charter that was adopted by the Board of Directors on October 26, 2012, amended on October 8, 2019, and further amended on August 6, 2021, a copy of which is accessible on the Company’s website, www.cantaloupe.com.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for identifying and recommending for selection by the Board nominees for election or re-election to the Board, or to fill any vacancies on the Board. The Committee also reviews and makes recommendations to the Board on the range of skills and expertise and other appropriate criteria that should be represented on the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will generally consider all relevant factors in identifying and recommending candidates to the Board, which may include independence, expertise that is useful to the Company and complementary to the background, skills and experience of the other Board members, a commitment to ethics and integrity, a commitment to personal and organizational accountability, a history of achievement that reflects superior standards for themselves and others, and a willingness to express alternate points of view while, at the same time, being respectful of the opinions of others and working collaboratively as a team player. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider the following qualifications that it believes would be useful in director candidates: transaction processing experience, experience in bringing technology to market, experience in building a growth company, sales leadership experience and diversity of background such as gender and ethnicity. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying director nominees, but the Committee strives to nominate directors with a variety of complementary skills so that, as a group, the Board will possess the appropriate backgrounds, perspectives, talent, skills, experience and expertise to oversee the Company’s business. The directors on the Company’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee use their available network of contacts when compiling a list of potential director candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers potential director candidates recommended by shareholders and other parties, including other directors, and all potential candidates are evaluated based upon the above criteria. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee makes no distinction in its evaluation of candidates based upon whether such candidates are recommended by shareholders or other parties.

Shareholders who wish to propose a potential director candidate may submit a recommendation in writing to the Secretary, Cantaloupe, Inc., 100 Deerfield Lane, Suite 300, Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355, specifying the name of the candidate and stating in detail the qualifications of such person for consideration by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. A written statement from the candidate consenting to be named as a candidate and, if nominated and elected, to serve as a director, should accompany any such recommendation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is also responsible for the following:

•

Reviewing corporate governance policies and systems against applicable laws, regulations, and industry specific standards and practices, if any, including any securities regulatory authority or NASDAQ guidelines applicable to the Company and recommending any changes to the Board. Such review includes reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval any changes to the documents, policies and procedures in the Company’s governing documents, including its articles of incorporation and bylaws;

•	Identifying best practices and developing and recommending to the Board corporate governance principles;

•	In consultation with management, annually reviewing the directors’ and officers’ liability policy, including its coverage and terms;

•	Providing to the Board the Committee’s assessment of which directors should be deemed independent directors under applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC;

•	Establishing procedures for, conducting and administering an annual performance and effectiveness evaluation of the Board and reporting annually to the Board the results of its assessment; and

•	In consultation with the Chair, making recommendations to the Board regarding the composition of the Board Committees, annually reviewing the composition of each Committee and presenting recommendations for Committee memberships to the Board, as needed.

Compliance Committee

The Compliance Committee of the Board presently consists of Ms. Richey (Chair) and Ms. Smalling. The Committee has oversight responsibility for the Company’s compliance functions and supervises the Company’s General Counsel, who leads the Company’s compliance program. The Compliance Committee also reviews and monitors significant compliance risk areas. The Compliance Committee met five (5) times during the 2021 fiscal year. The Compliance Committee operates pursuant to a charter that was adopted by the Board of Directors on December 21, 2018, and amended on August 6, 2021, a copy of which is accessible on the Company’s website, www.cantaloupe.com.

Finance Committee

The Finance Committee presently consists of Mr. Bergeron, Mr. Braunstein, Mr. Lamm (Chair), and Ms. Richey.

The Finance Committee operates pursuant to a charter that was adopted by the Board of Directors on August 6, 2021, a copy of which is accessible on the Company’s website, www.cantaloupe.com.

The Board’s Role in Risk Oversight

Management is responsible for managing the risks that the Company faces. The Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing management’s approach to risk management. Management identifies material risks facing the Company on an ongoing basis and discusses those risks with the Board of Directors or its Committees, as appropriate. While the Board of Directors has ultimate responsibility for overseeing management’s approach to risk management, various Committees of the Board assist it in fulfilling that responsibility. In particular, the Audit Committee assists the Board in its oversight of risk management in the areas of financial reporting, internal audit function, and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements related to financial reporting and auditing matters. The Compliance Committee reviews and monitors significant compliance risk areas and the steps management takes to monitor, control, and report such compliance risk exposures.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board currently separates the offices of Chair of our Board and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) by appointing an independent, non-executive chair. Our Board believes that an independent Board Chair is appropriate at this time because it allows our CEO to focus on managing the business, and the Non-Executive Chair to provide independent leadership for the Board. The arrangement also facilitates our Board’s independent oversight of our executive officers’ management of strategic direction, operational execution, and business risk, thereby better protecting shareholder value. Mr. Bergeron currently serves as our Non-Executive Chair.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The Non-Executive Chair performs the duties and responsibilities set forth in the Charter of the Non-Executive Chair, including the following:

•	Assist each of the Chairs of the Audit, Compensation, Compliance, Nominating And Corporate Governance and Finance Committees to appropriately execute the functions and responsibilities set forth in each of the Committee’s charters;

•	Preside at all meetings of the Board, and at executive sessions of the independent Directors;

•	Coordinate with the CEO to develop an annual schedule for Board meetings, the agenda for each Board meeting, and the distribution of advance meeting materials;

•	Collaborate with Committee Chairs to facilitate updates to the Board on the activities of their respective Committees;

•	Encourage and facilitate free and open communication between all Directors;

•	Coordinate with the CEO to facilitate communications between the executive officers of the Company and the independent Directors, including regular reporting of financial, operational and other performance metrics;

•	Conduct periodic one-on-one discussions with the independent Directors by holding regular one-on-one discussions regarding Board operations and other pertinent issues; and

•	Ensure timely communication to the CEO of appropriate feedback from executive sessions including recommended actions and issues or concerns raised by independent Directors.

The text of the Charter of the Non-Executive Chair, which was adopted on January 13, 2019, and amended on August 6, 2021, is posted on our website at www.cantaloupe.com.

Shareholder Communications with the Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has established a formal process for shareholders to send communications to the Board of Directors or individual directors. Shareholders may send communications to the Board of Directors or individual directors by e-mail at corporatesecretary@cantaloupe.com , or by mail at 100 Deerfield Lane, Suite 300, Malvern, Pennsylvania 19355, Attn: Corporate Secretary.

All communications submitted under this policy will be received and processed by the Secretary of the Company and submitted to the Board or the requisite individual members of the Board, as appropriate, based on the facts and circumstances outlined in the communication. Communications may also be referred to other departments within the Company or to management rather than to the Board or any of its members. The Board of Directors has requested that certain items which are unrelated to the duties and responsibilities of the Board should generally not be furnished to the Board, such as product complaints, product inquiries, new product suggestions, resumes and other forms of job inquiries, surveys, business solicitations or advertisements, or communications which are primarily commercial in nature. In addition, material that is unduly hostile, threatening, illegal or similarly unsuitable will be excluded from distribution to the Board or any of its members. The Secretary will make available to any non-employee member of the Board any communication that is not distributed to the Board in accordance with the process described above at the director’s request.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Board of Directors has adopted the Stock Ownership Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) for directors and executive officers. Pursuant thereto, the Chief Executive Officer is required to own shares of Common Stock with a value of at least three times his base salary, and the Chief Financial Officer and other executive officers are required to own shares of Common Stock with a value of at least one times his or her base salary. The executive officers have five years to attain such level of ownership. Each non-employee director is required to own shares of Common Stock with a value of at least five times the sum of his or her annual cash retainer. Each director has five years to comply following the commencement of his or her service on the Board. As of the date of this proxy statement, each executive officer and director is in compliance with the applicable stock ownership requirements or is in the applicable grace period for compliance. The Guidelines are posted on our website at www.cantaloupe.com.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics (the “Code of Conduct”) that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees. The Code of Conduct is posted on our website at www.cantaloupe.com. The Board of Directors must grant any waiver from a provision of the Code of Conduct to any executive officer or director, and any such waiver will be disclosed as required by law or stock market regulation.

Director Majority Voting Policy

The Board of Directors of the Company has adopted a Director Majority Voting Policy. Pursuant to the policy, any nominee for director in an uncontested election who receives a greater number of votes “against” his or her election than votes “for” such election shall promptly submit to the Board a letter of resignation to the Secretary of the Company. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will promptly consider the resignation and recommend to the Board whether to accept the tendered resignation or reject it. In considering whether to accept or reject the resignation, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee would consider relevant factors such as the underlying reasons for the majority against vote, the length of service and qualifications of the director whose resignation is tendered, the director’s contributions to the Company, and compliance with listing standards. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee would then consider the resignation and make a recommendation to the Board. The Board would then act on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s recommendation, which may include acceptance or rejection of the tendered resignation. The text of the policy is posted on our website at www.cantaloupe.com.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The Corporate Governance Guidelines were adopted by the Board of Directors in May 2013 and amended on August 6, 2021. A copy of the Corporate Governance Guidelines is posted on our website at www.cantaloupe.com. Highlights of our Corporate Governance Guidelines include:

•

Director Functions and Responsibilities. It is the duty of the Board to oversee management’s performance to ensure that the Company operates in an effective, efficient and ethical manner in order to produce value for the Company’s shareholders. The Board selects the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in the manner that it determines to be in the best interests of the Company’s shareholders.

•

Director Qualification Standards. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee identifies and recommends for selection by the Board director candidates for nomination and election (or reelection) at the annual shareholder meeting or for appointment to fill vacancies. The relevant factors that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers are described in this proxy statement under “ Board Committees .” No less than a majority of directors on the Board, as well as all members of the Audit, Compensation, and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees, are independent, as required by The NASDAQ Stock Market LLC. Directors are elected each year, and there are no term limits for serving on the Board, and there is no mandatory retirement age.

•

Board Procedures. Each member of the Board is expected to ensure that other existing and future commitments, including employment responsibilities and service on the boards of other entities, do not materially interfere with the member’s service as a director. No independent director may serve on the Boards of more than four other public companies, and no employee director may serve on the Boards of more than one other public company. Management is encouraged to invite Company personnel to any Board meeting at which their presence and expertise would help the Board have a full understanding of matters being considered.

•	Executive Sessions of Independent Directors. The independent Board members may, if deemed necessary, meet in executive session at regular Board meetings, and at other times as necessary, but no less than twice a year.

•	Director Compensation. The Compensation Committee annually reviews and recommends for approval to the Board the compensation of the directors.

•

Director Orientation and Continuing Education . The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee works with management to provide an orientation for new directors. The Board encourages directors to participate in ongoing education, as well as participation in accredited director education programs.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•

Annual Executive Officer Evaluation. The Compensation Committee annually reviews and recommends for approval to the Board corporate goals relevant to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers’ compensation, evaluates the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers’ performance in light of those goals, and recommends for approval to the Board the Chief Executive Officer’s and other executive officers’ compensation levels.

•	Management Succession. The Chief Executive Officer prepares and the Board reviews, on an annual basis, an emergency short-term succession contingency plan should an unforeseen event, such as death or disability, occur that prevents the Chief Executive Officer from continuing to serve.

•	Annual Performance Evaluation of the Board. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee establishes procedures for, and conducts and administers, an annual performance and effectiveness evaluation of the Board. Each Committee also conducts an annual review of its own performance.

•

Committees. The Board has five standing committees - an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a Finance Committee and a Compliance Committee - each of which consists solely of independent directors. The full Board considers periodic rotation of Committee members and chairs, taking into account the desirability of rotation of Committee members and chairs, the benefits of continuity and experience, and applicable legal, regulatory and stock exchange listing requirements.

•	Review of Corporate Governance Guidelines. The Corporate Governance Guidelines are to be reviewed periodically by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and the Board makes changes when appropriate based on recommendations from the Committee.

Compensation of Non-Employee Directors

Members of the Board who are not employees of the Company receive cash and equity compensation for serving on the Board, as reviewed and recommended by the Compensation Committee, with subsequent approval thereof by the Board.

Director Compensation Program

Under our director compensation program, each non-employee director is paid an annual cash retainer of $50,000. The Chair of the Board is paid an additional annual cash retainer of $35,000, while the Chairs of the following Board committees are entitled to the following additional annual cash retainers: Audit Committee Chair: $15,000; Compensation Committee Chair: $10,000; Compliance Committee Chair: $10,000; Nominating and Governance Committee Chair: $7,500; and Finance Committee Chair: $7,500. No additional cash retainers are provided for non-Chair service on Board committees, and we do not pay our directors meeting attendance fees under the new program. Cash retainers are generally payable monthly in arrears; however, in light of the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, all cash retainers accrued for director service under the new program during calendar year 2020 were deferred and paid in early 2021.

In addition to these cash retainers, and reflective of the Compensation Committee’s and the Board’s belief that equity compensation is key in linking the interests of our non-employee directors and our executives with those of our shareholders, our non-employee directors are eligible to receive an annual grant of RSUs worth approximately $100,000, vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date (but eligible for prorated vesting for each completed calendar quarter of service following the grant date). In accordance with this program, our non-employee directors serving on the Board as of May 14, 2021 were eligible to receive, and did receive, a grant of 9,606 RSUs.

Our non-employee directors serving on the Board as of May 6, 2020 were also granted a one-time initial grant of 120,000 stock options on May 6, 2020, with an exercise price of $6.49 per share, with 25% of such options vesting on the first anniversary of the grant date (but eligible for prorated vesting for each completed calendar quarter of service following the grant date), and the remaining 75% of such options vesting in equal quarterly installments over the three-year period following the first anniversary of the grant date.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

Our Stock Ownership Guidelines provide that each non-employee director should own shares of Common Stock with a value of at least five times his or her annual cash retainer. Each non-employee director has five years to obtain such ownership from commencement of service as a director. As of the date hereof, each of our non-employee directors

TABLE OF CONTENTS

is in compliance with the policy or is within the grace period for compliance. For purposes of these guidelines, “shares” include shares owned by a non-employee director or by such person’s immediate family members residing in the same household (including shares held in trust for the benefit of the foregoing), and include unvested restricted stock awards (but not unexercised stock options).

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following Compensation Discussion and Analysis (“CD&A”) provides information regarding our executive compensation philosophy, the elements of our executive compensation program, and the factors that were considered in the compensation actions and decisions for our named executive officers during fiscal 2021. The CD&A should be read together with the compensation tables and related disclosures set forth elsewhere in this proxy statement.

Our Compensation Committee has been actively restructuring our compensation programs throughout fiscal 2020 and fiscal 2021 to accommodate changes in our management team and to design and implement a program that the Compensation Committee believes aligns with the Company’s long-term strategic plan, reflects our pay-for-performance philosophy, encourages retention of key executives, and increases alignment between the interests of our executives and our shareholders.

Named Executive Officers

During fiscal 2021, our named executive officers (“NEOs”) were as follows:

•	Sean Feeney, our President and Chief Executive Officer;

•	R. Wayne Jackson, our Chief Financial Officer (effective as of August 10, 2020);

•	Anant Agrawal, our current Chief Revenue Officer;

•	Scott Stewart, our current Chief Accounting Officer (effective as of September 15, 2020); and

•	Eugene C. Cavanaugh, our former Interim Chief Financial Officer (from July 1, 2020 through August 10, 2020).

Executive Officer Changes During Fiscal 2021

We appointed an interim Chief Financial Officer, Eugene C. Cavanaugh, effective as of July 1, 2020, and a permanent Chief Financial Officer, R. Wayne Jackson, to succeed Mr. Cavanaugh, effective as of August 10, 2020. In addition, we appointed a permanent Chief Accounting Officer, Scott Stewart, effective as of September 15, 2020.

For information regarding the employment and separation arrangements for our NEOs, please see the below discussions under “ -Executive Employment Agreements ” and “ Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control .”

Our Compensation Process and Philosophy

The Compensation Committee is responsible for annually reviewing and recommending to the Board for approval the corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of the executive officers of the Company, evaluating the executive officers’ performance in light of those goals and objectives, and recommending for approval to the Board the executive officers’ compensation levels based on this evaluation. From time to time, the Compensation Committee may seek input and recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer regarding the compensation of other executive officers; however, the Chief Executive Officer is not present during voting or deliberations on his compensation. The Compensation Committee is empowered to utilize the services of an independent compensation consultant; however, our current Compensation Committee does not retain a compensation consultant. As the Company’s management team and executive compensation programs continue to grow, the Compensation Committee may consider engaging a compensation consultant to assist with market analysis and program structure.

The Company’s compensation philosophy is designed to attract and retain key executives responsible for our success, reflect pay-for-performance, and align management’s interests with the creation of long-term shareholder value. The Compensation Committee believes that these goals are best accomplished by tying a significant portion of compensation to the achievement of performance goals and equity incentives.

In particular, the Compensation Committee believes that equity awards are an essential component of an effective compensation program, because they provide a direct link between our shareholders’ interests and our employees, executive officers, directors, and advisors. The Compensation Committee - and the Board - believe that this link is key to the future success of the Company, and have been working to implement changes in the Company’s compensation programs to emphasize equity compensation. Increased emphasis on equity compensation also enables the Company to conserve cash flow, which has become increasingly important in light of the COVID-19 pandemic

TABLE OF CONTENTS

and its effect worldwide. A more prominent role for equity compensation in our programs also enhances equity ownership in the Company by our employees, executive officers, and directors, which our Compensation Committee and Board believe is essential to increasing shareholder alignment. The Compensation Committee firmly believes that the Company can best attract and retain key talent by providing attractive “upside” growth opportunity if our new leadership succeeds in improving our Company’s past performance, which is directly aligned with our shareholder interests. For further information on our equity award program for our NEOs, please see the below discussion under “ -Equity Awards .”

Other elements of our compensation program include base salary, annual bonuses, and limited perquisites. For more information, please see the below discussion under “ -Elements of Compensation .”

Market Analysis

Although the Compensation Committee may consider the compensation levels of our competitors in establishing executive compensation, in order to ensure that we are offering attractive and competitive opportunities to adequately retain our key employees, market comparison is only one factor in the Compensation Committee’s analysis. For this reason, executive compensation levels are not tied to any specific “benchmark” or other comparative level. The Compensation Committee does not presently maintain a formal, specific peer group of companies against which our compensation programs are compared, but may develop a prescribed peer group (either independently or with the assistance of an independent compensation consultant) as it continues on the path of enhancing our compensation programs.

Say-On-Pay

At the 2021 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 13, 2021, approximately 97% of our shareholders expressed support for the Company’s fiscal 2020 NEO compensation programs through our advisory “say-on-pay” vote. We believe that this strong show of support reflects the evolution of our compensation programs to fit our new go-forward strategy, and our Compensation Committee’s increased emphasis of equity-based compensation to further link our executive compensation programs with shareholder interests and provide attractive equity growth opportunities to continue to attract and retain key talent, all in line with our pay-for-performance philosophy.

As our executive compensation programs continue to evolve, our Compensation Committee values shareholder feedback, and will consider any shareholder suggestions and commentary related to our compensation practices and structures, whether through our annual “say-on-pay” votes or otherwise.

Our Executive Compensation Practices

Our compensation program for our executive officers features many commonly used “best practices” including:

•	Pay-for-performance . We seek to tie a significant amount of executive compensation to the achievement of performance goals and as equity-based awards to link our executives’ long-term incentives with our shareholders’ interests.

•

Stock ownership guidelines . We have significant ownership guidelines. Our Chief Executive Officer is required to hold Common Stock with a value equal to a multiple of three times his base salary and our Chief Financial Officer and other executive officers are required to hold Common Stock with a value equal to his or her base salary (in each case subject to applicable grace periods for new executive officers).

•	No Excise Tax Gross-Up Provisions . Our NEOs are not provided with any excise tax gross-up provisions with respect to payments contingent upon a change of control.

•	Limited perquisites for our executives . Perquisites are not a significant portion of our executive officers’ compensation, and generally consist of health, welfare, and retirement benefits broadly available to our employees.

•	No repricing of underwater options . Our equity incentive plans do not permit repricing or the exchange of underwater stock options without shareholder approval.

•	Clawback Policy . On August 6, 2021, our Board adopted an Amended and Restated Incentive Compensation Clawback Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) which applies to any incentive compensation paid, settled, or awarded to an executive officer, any other employee of the Company with a title of Senior

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Vice President or above, or any non-employee director, in each case after August 6, 2021. The Clawback Policy provides that in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results, the Company can seek return of any overpayment of incentive compensation paid to an executive officer based on such restated results; provided, however, that the executive officer must have engaged in fraud or intentional misconduct that contributed to the need for the restatement. In addition, if a covered individual engages in intentional misconduct or fraud, or knowingly violates any law, regulation, or Company policy (including any code of conduct or employee handbook) in connection with his or her engagement by the Company which results in significant financial or reputational harm to the Company, the Company may seek recovery of any incentive compensation paid to such individual within one year following payment or vesting (and/or determine that any unpaid or unvested incentive compensation has not been earned and must be forfeited).

Elements of Compensation

The components of our NEO compensation program are summarized in the below table, and more detailed discussions of each component follow:

Element	Key Characteristics	Why We Pay this Element	How We Determine
Base Salary	Fixed compensation component payable in cash. Reviewed annually and adjusted when appropriate.	Provide a base level of competitive cash compensation for executive talent.	Experience, job scope, and individual performance.
Annual Bonus	Variable compensation component payable in cash based on performance as compared to Company and/or individual performance goals.	Motivate and reward executives for performance on key operational, financial, and personal measures during the year.	Organizational and individual performance. Discretionary bonuses are based on various factors, including past performance.
Equity Awards	Variable compensation component payable in restricted stock, restricted stock units, and/or stock options.	Alignment of long term interests of management and shareholders and retention of executive talent.	Organizational and individual performance.
Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits	Provides basic competitive health, welfare, and 401(k) benefits.	Provide market-standard benefits programs to our workforce.	Periodic review of benefits provided generally to all employees.

Base Salary

Base salary is the fixed component of our NEOs’ annual cash compensation and is set with the goal of attracting and retaining talented executives and adequately compensating and rewarding them for services rendered during the fiscal year. The Compensation Committee reviews our NEOs’ base salaries on an annual basis. Base salaries are intended to reflect an individual’s level of responsibility and performance; however, the Compensation Committee also considers changes in duties and responsibilities, our business and financial results, and its knowledge of market practices in setting and adjusting base salaries.

Mr. Feeney was hired as our Chief Executive Officer at an initial base salary of $450,000, which salary remained unchanged in fiscal 2021. Under Mr. Jackson’s employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Jackson’s base salary was initially $280,000 per year, which increased to $350,000 per year on January 1, 2021. Mr. Agrawal’s base salary in fiscal 2021 was $340,000, which was unchanged from its fiscal 2020 level. Mr. Stewart was hired as our Chief Accounting Officer at a base salary of $275,000 per year. Mr. Cavanaugh provided his services to us as an independent contractor (and not as an employee), and, as further described below under “ Cavanaugh Interim CFO Arrangements ,” Mr. Cavanaugh’s compensation arrangement with the Company included (i) $15,000 per month in cash, and (ii) 3,000 shares of vested Common Stock per month of service, in each case prorated for any partial month. However, in light of the uncertainty created by the COVID-19 global pandemic, Messrs. Feeney’s, Agrawal’s and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Stewart’s base salaries were reduced by 20% as part of an across-the-board reduction in salaries for members of our senior leadership team (and Mr. Jackson’s base salary of $280,000 in effect from his appointment until January 1, 2021, reflected a 20% reduction to his $350,000 base salary, effective as of January 1, 2021). These reductions remained in effect through December 31, 2020.

Annual Bonus

Performance-based annual cash bonuses based on achievement of pre-established performance goals provide NEOs with an opportunity to receive additional cash compensation based on their individual performance and Company results, including the achievement of pre-determined Company and/or individual performance goals. Although the Compensation Committee intends that our annual bonus program should primarily rely on pre-established performance metrics and goals, the Compensation Committee also retains flexibility to include discretionary elements in our program so that the program may be adapted to adequately suit its retentive purpose and reflect performance that may not be adequately captured in pre-established, objective metrics.

Annual bonuses in respect of fiscal 2021 were awarded based on the achievement of predetermined corporate goals (which were weighted at 90% for Messrs. Feeney, Jackson, Agrawal and Stewart) and the Compensation Committee’s evaluation of each NEO’s individual personal achievement (which was weighted at 10% for Messrs. Feeney, Jackson, Agrawal and Stewart). The corporate goals were based on the Company’s Revenue (40% weight), Adjusted EBITDA (40% weight), and Operating Cash Flow (20% weight), as detailed in the table below:

Metric	Weight	Percent Achieved
Metric	Weight	70%	85%	100%	115%	130%
Revenue ($)	40%	165,000,000	170,000,000	175,000,000	180,000,000	185,000,000
Adjusted EBITDA ($)	40%	2,750,000	3,125,000	3,500,000	3,875,000	4,250,000
Operating Cash Flow ($)	20%	650,000	750,000	850,000	950,000	1,050,000

Achievement below the 70% level as established in the above table would result in a “Percent Achieved” of 0% for the applicable metric, while each metric was capped at a “Percent Achieved” of 130%. Payouts are interpolated on a linear basis for achievement between the levels set forth in the table. The Compensation Committee selected the Revenue, Adjusted EBITDA, and Operating Cash Flow metrics because it believed that these metrics appropriately incentivized our NEOs to achieve sustainable growth in the challenging environment of fiscal 2021 (including in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic), while setting challenging goals that, if achieved, would deliver value to our shareholders. Based on the actual achievement of each metric in fiscal 2021, the Compensation Committee calculated an overall achievement on the fiscal 2021 corporate goals of 108%, as detailed in table below:

Metric	Actual Achievement	Percent Achieved	Weight	Weighted Percent Achieved
Revenue	$166,939,000	76%	40%	30%
Adjusted EBITDA	$ 7,618,000	130%	40%	52%
Operating Cash Flow	$ 8,177,000	130%	20%	26 %
		Total Corporate Percent Achieved		108%

Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before income taxes, depreciation, and amortization) is a non-GAAP financial measure which is not required by or defined under GAAP. We use this non-GAAP financial measure for financial and operational decision-making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information about our operating results, enhances the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects and allows for greater transparency with respect to metrics used by our management in its financial and operational decision making. Additional information on Adjusted EBITDA, including a reconciliation to Net (loss) income, can be found in our filings with the SEC, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 under the heading “Non-GAAP Financial Measures – Adjusted EBITDA”.

The Compensation Committee determined that each NEO’s individual personal achievement was satisfied at a level of 100% for Mr. Jackson, 75% for Mr. Agrawal, and 100% for Mr. Stewart. The individual performance goals for each of our NEOs was primarily focused on continuing the transitions in our management team that began in fiscal 2020 and continued during fiscal 2021.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The individual performance goals for Mr. Jackson included enhancing the Company’s book closing process, reducing reliance on outside service providers, transitioning Sarbanes-Oxley compliance to the finance function, encouraging a “compliance culture” in the finance function and implementing new enterprise software for the finance function.

The individual performance goals for Mr. Agrawal included increasing monthly recurring revenue, reducing the Company’s 3G exposure, expanding into new markets, developing a streamlined deal approval process and forecast system and improving communication among revenue teams.

The individual performance goals for Mr. Stewart included enhancing the Company’s book closing process, reducing reliance on outside service providers and transitioning Sarbanes-Oxley compliance to the finance function.

The Compensation Committee did not rely on pre-established performance metrics and goals for the individual personal achievement portion of Mr. Feeney’s fiscal 2021 annual bonus. The Compensation Committee determined on a discretionary basis that Mr. Feeney’s individual personal achievement was satisfied at a level of 85% for fiscal 2021 based on Mr. Feeney’s contributions to (i) improving the business operations of the Company, (ii) managing the Company through the challenging economic environment and (iii) improving the management team and internal resources of the Company.

Based on the results achieved above, fiscal 2021 bonuses earned by each of our NEOs we calculated as set forth in the below table (and in the “Summary Compensation Table” below).

Equity Awards

As described above, our Compensation Committee believes that equity awards are an essential component of an effective compensation program, because they provide a direct link between our shareholders’ interests and our employees, executive officers, directors, and advisors. Our Compensation Committee is therefore focused on emphasizing the important of equity compensation awards in setting executive compensation. Our equity awards to our NEOs primarily reflect initial awards in connection with hires and promotions, as opposed to awards granted under a general annual program. The Compensation Committee generally targets annual equity awards to our NEOs for each fiscal year in an amount equal to (i) 50% of base salary, for Mr. Feeney, (ii) 30% of base salary, for Messrs. Jackson and Agrawal, and (iii) 20% of base salary, for Mr. Stewart, in each case with awards vesting over a three-year period. The awards granted consisted of stock options, restricted stock, and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and contained various time-based and performance-based vesting restrictions. Each NEO’s outstanding equity awards are described in further detail below:

Sean Feeney

In connection with our hiring of Mr. Feeney as our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Feeney was awarded an initial inducement grant of 1,000,000 stock options on May 8, 2020, with an exercise price of $6.30 per share. Mr. Feeney’s options vest as follows: (i) 50% of the options are eligible to vest based on Mr. Feeney’s continued service in four

TABLE OF CONTENTS

equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date, (ii) 12.5% of the options vested based on Mr. Feeney’s continued service through June 30, 2021, and (iii) an additional 12.5% of the options are eligible to vest on each of June 30, 2022, June 30, 2023, and June 30, 2024, subject in the case of this clause (iii) to the achievement of applicable performance goals for the fiscal year ending on each such date. On January 27, 2021, the Compensation Committee established these performance goals as a price target for the trading price of the Company’s common stock in each applicable fiscal year. The price target is achieved if the average closing price of the common stock during any consecutive 30-trading-day period during the applicable fiscal year meets or exceeds (i) $13.50, in the case of fiscal 2022, (ii) $16.50, in the case of fiscal 2023, and (iii) $19.50, in the case of fiscal 2024.

If at least 80% of the performance goals for an applicable fiscal year are achieved, the Compensation Committee may determine that the portion of the option eligible to vest based on such fiscal year’s performance will vest on a prorated basis. (In so determining, the Compensation Committee will consider the Company’s performance relative to its market competitors and any other considerations deemed relevant by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee’s guideline is generally that, for every percentage point that the highest average closing price of the common stock during any consecutive 30-trading-day period during the applicable fiscal year is below that fiscal year’s price target, the percentage of the performance options eligible to vest in respect of the applicable fiscal year should be reduced by 2%, but the Compensation Committee may vary this formula in its sole discretion.) In addition, any outstanding options are eligible for accelerated vesting upon a “change of control” of the Company, subject to Mr. Feeney’s continued employment with the Company as of immediately prior to the applicable transaction.

Although Mr. Feeney did not receive any equity grants in fiscal 2021, on August 6, 2021, after the close of fiscal 2021, Mr. Feeney was awarded a grant of 21,552 RSUs, which vest in three equal installments on each of anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to Mr. Feeney’s continued employment through each such vesting date.

R. Wayne Jackson

On August 10, 2020, Mr. Jackson was awarded an initial equity grant of 400,000 stock options, with an exercise price of $7.10 per share, which are eligible to vest as follows: (i) 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date, and (ii) the remaining 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal installments on each of June 30, 2021, June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2023, subject to the achievement of performance goals for the fiscal year ending on each such date and in each case subject to Mr. Jackson’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. On January 27, 2021, these goals were established by the Compensation Committee as the same goals applicable to Mr. Feeney’s fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2023 performance options described above (and a price target applicable to Mr. Jackson’s fiscal 2021 performance options of $10.50 (based on average closing price for a consecutive 30-day trading period)). If at least 80% of the performance goals for an applicable fiscal year are achieved, the Compensation Committee may determine that the portion of the option eligible to vest in respect of such fiscal year will vest on a prorated basis, as described above with respect to Mr. Feeney’s performance options. In addition, any of the stock options then-outstanding and unvested will immediately vest upon a “change of control,” subject to Mr. Jackson’s continued employment as of immediately prior to the “change of control.” Mr. Jackson’s performance options eligible to vest on June 30, 2021, vested based on the Company’s share price performance during fiscal 2021.

In addition, on August 6, 2021, after the close of fiscal 2021, Mr. Jackson was awarded a grant of 10,057 RSUs, which vest in three equal installments on each of anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to Mr. Jackson’s continued employment through each such vesting date.

Anant Agrawal

On May 29, 2020, Mr. Agrawal was granted an award of 16,260 RSUs, which vested on December 31, 2020. On July 16, 2020, Mr. Agrawal was awarded a grant of 250,000 stock options, with an exercise price of $7.61 per share, which are eligible to vest as follows: (i) 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the grant date, and (ii) the remaining 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal installments on each of June 30, 2021, June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2023, subject to the achievement of performance goals for the fiscal year ending on each such date and in each case subject to Mr. Agrawal’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. On January 27, 2021, these goals were established by the Compensation Committee as the same goals applicable to Mr. Jackson’s performance-based options described above. Mr. Agrawal’s performance options eligible to vest on June 30, 2021, vested based on the Company’s share price performance during fiscal 2021.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In addition, on August 6, 2021, after the close of fiscal 2021, Mr. Agrawal was awarded a grant of 9,770 RSUs, which vest in three equal installments on each of anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to Mr. Agrawal’s continued employment through each such vesting date.

Scott Stewart

In connection with our hiring of Mr. Stewart as our Chief Accounting Officer, Mr. Stewart was awarded an initial grant of 125,000 stock options on September 17, 2020, with an exercise price of $8.58 per share, which are eligible to vest as follows: (i) 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal annual installments on the first three anniversaries of the September 15, 2020, and (ii) the remaining 50% of the options are eligible to vest in three equal installments on each of September 15, 2021, September 15, 2022, and September 15, 2023, subject to the achievement of performance goals for the fiscal year ending on each such date and in each case subject to Mr. Stewart’s continued employment through the applicable vesting date. On January 27, 2021, these goals were established by the Compensation Committee as the same goals applicable to Mr. Jackson’s performance-based options described above. Mr. Stewart’s performance options eligible to vest on September 15, 2021, vested based on the Company’s share price performance during fiscal 2021.

In addition, on August 6, 2021, after the close of fiscal 2021, Mr. Stewart was awarded a grant of 5,268 RSUs, which vest in three equal installments on each of anniversary of the grant date, generally subject to Mr. Stewart’s continued employment through each such vesting date.

Eugene C. Cavanaugh

As further described below under “ Cavanaugh Interim CFO Arrangements ,” Mr. Cavanaugh was entitled to receive 3,000 shares of vested Common Stock per month of service, prorated for any partial month, during his engagement by the Company (which ended on October 15, 2020, but following which Mr. Cavanaugh provided additional consulting services on an ad hoc basis through March 2021).

Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits

Perquisites do not make up a significant portion of NEO compensation. Our NEOs are generally entitled to participate in the health care coverage, group insurance, and other employee benefits (e.g., 401(k) plan) broadly available to our other employees.

Executive Employment Agreements

Our NEOs who remain employed with us are party to employment agreements or offer letters with us. Certain of these arrangements provide our NEOs with severance protection in the case of a termination without “cause” or, in certain cases, a resignation for “good reason,” which in certain cases is enhanced if such termination occurs in connection with a “change of control.” The Compensation Committee believes that a market level of severance protection allows our NEOs to focus on performing their day-to-day tasks and enhancing value for our shareholders without fearing a loss of financial security as a result of a termination (or constructive termination). These employment arrangements are described in further detail below; for more information, please also see the “Summary Compensation Table” below and the below discussion of “Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control.”

Feeney Employment Agreement

Mr. Feeney entered into an employment agreement with us in connection with his commencement of employment on May 8, 2020. In addition to his base salary of $450,000 per year, the employment agreement provides Mr. Feeney with an annual cash bonus opportunity, commencing with our fiscal 2021 year, with a target of 100% of Mr. Feeney’s base salary and a maximum of 150% of Mr. Feeney’s base salary. For fiscal 2021 only, such bonus will be payable at a minimum of 50% of Mr. Feeney’s base salary.

If Mr. Feeney is terminated by us without “cause,” or resigns his employment for “good reason,” then, subject to his execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with the covenants in his employment agreement, Mr. Feeney is eligible to receive a severance package consisting of 12 months of continued base salary, senior executive-level outplacement support for 12 months, and up to a 12-month COBRA subsidy. However, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a “change of control,” then Mr. Feeney will instead be provided a

TABLE OF CONTENTS

lump sum payment equal to his base salary plus last annual bonus paid in the fiscal year completed prior to such termination. (Under Mr. Feeney’s employment agreement, if Mr. Feeney becomes entitled to receive payments or benefits that would be subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the payments and benefits would be reduced such that the excise tax does not apply, unless Mr. Feeney would be better off on an after-tax basis receiving all of the payments and benefits and paying the applicable excise tax.)

Mr. Feeney’s employment agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual confidentiality, non-disparagement, and intellectual property covenants, as a well as a non-compete, non-solicit of customers and suppliers, and non-solicit of employees (including a no-hire) that each apply during employment and for two years following any termination.

Jackson Employment Agreement

On August 10, 2020, the Company appointed R. Wayne Jackson as the Company’s permanent Chief Financial Officer. Under his employment agreement with the Company, Mr. Jackson’s base salary was initially $280,000 per year, which increased to $350,000 per year on January 1, 2021, and his annual target bonus opportunity is equal to 50% of base salary, with a maximum bonus opportunity of 150% of the target bonus (with a minimum fiscal 2021 bonus of $87,500).

If Mr. Jackson is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, then subject to Mr. Jackson’s execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with the covenants in his employment agreement, Mr. Jackson will be provided a severance package consisting of (i) continued base salary at the monthly rate then in effect during the “Severance Period” (as defined below), (ii) senior executive-level outplacement counseling and support services during the Severance Period, and (iii) a COBRA subsidy during the Severance Period. The “Severance Period” means (x) zero months, if such termination occurs on or prior to January 31, 2021, (y) three months, if such termination occurs between February 1, 2021 and August 10, 2021, or (z) six months, if such termination occurs on or after August 11, 2021. However, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a “change of control,” then Mr. Jackson will instead be provided a lump sum payment equal to the sum of his base salary and last annual bonus paid in the fiscal year completed prior to such termination. (Under Mr. Jackson’s employment agreement, if Mr. Jackson becomes entitled to receive payments or benefits that would be subject to the excise tax under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, the payments and benefits would be reduced such that the excise tax does not apply, unless Mr. Jackson would be better off on an after-tax basis receiving all of the payments and benefits and paying the applicable excise tax.)

Mr. Jackson’s employment agreement contains customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual confidentiality, non-disparagement, and intellectual property covenants, as well as a non-compete, non-solicit of customers and suppliers, and non-solicit of employees (including a no-hire) that each apply during employment and for two years following any termination.

Agrawal Employment Agreement

Upon his commencement of employment with us on November 9, 2017, Mr. Agrawal entered into an employment agreement with an initial term of one year, which is automatically renewed for consecutive one-year periods unless terminated by either Mr. Agrawal or the Company upon at least 90 days’ notice prior to the end of the then-current term. In addition to his base salary, Mr. Agrawal’s employment agreement provides for participation in our annual cash bonus program and annual equity award program.

If Mr. Agrawal’s employment is terminated by us without “cause,” or if Mr. Agrawal resigns for “good reason,” then, in addition to a prorated target annual bonus and prorated annual equity award, Mr. Agrawal would, subject to his execution of a release of claims, be eligible to receive a severance package consisting of (i) 12 months of continued base salary, and (ii) a 12-month COBRA subsidy (plus additional payments to cover taxes applicable to such COBRA subsidy).

Mr. Agrawal’s employment agreement also contains customary restrictive covenants, including perpetual confidentiality, intellectual property, and reciprocal non-disparagement covenants, a three-year non-compete (which expired on November 9, 2020), and a one-year post-employment non-solicit of employees and customers.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Stewart Offer Letter

Mr. Stewart has entered into an offer letter with us, pursuant to which he was appointed as our Chief Accounting Officer effective as of September 15, 2020. The offer letter provides Mr. Stewart with a base salary of $275,000 per year (reduced by 20% through December 31, 2020 as part of the Company’s COVID-19-related executive compensation reductions described above), a target bonus opportunity for fiscal 2021 equal to $125,000 (with a minimum fiscal 2021 bonus of $62,500), and an annual equity award opportunity of up to 20% of his base salary. Mr. Stewart also received a one-time cash signing bonus of $50,000 after he completed his first 30 days of employment with us. Mr. Stewart’s offer letter also contains customary restrictive covenants, including a perpetual confidentiality covenant, as well as a non-compete, non-solicit of customers, and non-solicit of employees that each apply for one year following any termination.

Cavanaugh Interim CFO Arrangements

Mr. Cavanaugh served as our interim Chief Financial Officer, effective as of July 1, 2020. Mr. Cavanaugh’s compensation arrangement with the Company included (i) $15,000 per month in cash, and (ii) 3,000 shares of vested Common Stock per month of service, in each case prorated for any partial month. Mr. Cavanaugh’s engagement with the Company was scheduled to end upon the appointment of our permanent Chief Financial Officer on August 10, 2020, but Mr. Cavanaugh agreed to continue to provide consulting services to the Company’s finance and accounting functions and its executive management under the same compensation terms, until the arrangement ended on October 15, 2020 (but following which Mr. Cavanaugh provided additional consulting services on an ad hoc basis through March 2021).

Stock Ownership Guidelines

As described above, the Compensation Committee believes that equity ownership in the Company by our executive officers is essential to increasing shareholder alignment. The Company’s Stock Ownership Guidelines support this belief by providing that the Chief Executive Officer is required to hold Common Stock with a value equal to a multiple of three times his base salary and our Chief Financial Officer and other executive officers are required to hold Common Stock with a value equal to his or her base salary. Each executive officer has five years to satisfy the applicable guideline following his or her appointment as an executive officer. As of the date hereof, each of our NEOs who remain employed with us are in compliance with the policy or are in the grace period for compliance.

For purposes of these guidelines, “shares” include shares owned by the executive officer or by such person’s immediate family members residing in the same household (including shares held in trust for the benefit of the foregoing), and include unvested restricted stock awards (but not unexercised stock options).

Clawback Policy

As described above, on August 6, 2021, our Board adopted our new Clawback Policy, which applies to any incentive compensation paid, settled, or awarded to an executive officer, any other employee of the Company with a title of Senior Vice President or above, or any non-employee director, in each case after August 6, 2021. The Clawback Policy provides that in the event of a restatement of the Company’s financial results, the Company can seek return of any overpayment of incentive compensation paid to an executive officer based on such restated results; provided, however, that the executive officer must have engaged in fraud or intentional misconduct that contributed to the need for the restatement. In addition, if a covered individual engages in intentional misconduct or fraud, or knowingly violates any law, regulation, or Company policy (including any code of conduct or employee handbook) in connection with his or her engagement by the Company which results in significant financial or reputational harm to the Company, the Company may seek recovery of any incentive compensation paid to such individual within one year following payment or vesting (and/or determine that any unpaid or unvested incentive compensation has not been earned and must be forfeited).

Anti-Hedging Policy

Our Anti-Hedging Policy prohibits our employees, officers, and directors from engaging in any hedging or similar transactions with respect to the Company’s securities, including through the establishment of a short position in the Company’s securities, that are designed to or that may reasonably be expected to have the effect of hedging or offsetting a decrease in the market value of the Company’s securities.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Impact of Taxation and Accounting Considerations on Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee takes into account tax and accounting consequences of our executive compensation program and weighs these factors when setting total compensation and determining the individual elements of any NEO’s compensation package.

In particular, Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue of 1986, as amended, generally precludes a publicly held corporation from a federal income tax deduction for a taxable year of compensation in excess of $1 million paid to its “covered employees,” which generally include its chief executive officer, chief financial officer, its next three most highly compensated executive officers, and any individual who is or was a “covered employee” for any taxable year beginning after December 31, 2016. However, the deductibility of compensation is only one of a myriad of factors that the Compensation Committee takes into account when setting executive compensation, and we and our Compensation Committee firmly believe that it is important for the Company to retain flexibility to pay compensation to our employees (including our NEOs) that appropriately achieves our goals of incentivizing retention, paying for performance, and aligning compensation with shareholder interests, even if the deductibility of that compensation is limited (whether under Section 162(m) or otherwise).

POTENTIAL PAYMENTS UPON TERMINATION OR CHANGE OF CONTROL

Messrs. Feeney, Jackson, Agrawal, and Stewart

Messrs. Feeney, Jackson, Agrawal, and Stewart are entitled to certain severance payments and benefits upon a termination without “cause,” or, where applicable, a resignation for “good reason,” as further described above under “ Executive Employment Agreements .” In addition, under the general terms of our equity award plans, a participating employee is entitled to “double-trigger” accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards if such employee is terminated by us without “cause,” or, to the extent provided in the employee’s award agreement, if the employee resigns for “good reason,” in each case within 18 months following a “change of control.” Mr. Feeney’s and Mr. Jackson’s initial option awards are subject to accelerated vesting upon a “change of control,” each as more fully described above under “ Equity Awards-Sean Feeney ” and “- R. Wayne Jackson ,” respectively. The following table summarizes these potential payments and benefits, with all equity estimates based on the closing price of our Common Stock on June 30, 2021 ($11.86) and assuming that the applicable termination event or “change of control” occurred on the last day of fiscal 2021, June 30, 2021:

Name	Termination without “Cause” or Resignation for “Good Reason” (Absent a “Change of Control”)				“Change of Control” (No Termination)	Termination without “Cause” or Resignation for “Good Reason” (In Connection with a “Change of Control”)

(1)

As further described above under “Executive Employment Agreements-Feeney Employment Agreement,” if Mr. Feeney is terminated by us without “cause,” or resigns his employment for “good reason,” then, subject to his execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with the covenants in his employment agreement, Mr. Feeney is eligible to receive a severance package consisting of 12 months of continued base salary, senior executive-level outplacement support for 12 months, and up to a 12-month COBRA subsidy. However, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a “change of control,” then Mr. Feeney will instead be provided a lump sum payment equal to his base salary plus last annual bonus paid in the fiscal year completed prior to such termination. In addition, as further described above under “Equity Awards-Sean Feeney,” Mr. Feeney’s outstanding options under his initial option award are eligible for accelerated vesting upon a “change of control” of the Company, subject to Mr. Feeney’s continued employment with the Company as of immediately prior to the applicable transaction. Note that the above estimates do not take into account the potential application of any “best-after-tax” cutback that may apply to Mr. Feeney’s severance payments and benefits if such payments and benefits are subject to the excise tax provisions under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as further described above under “-Feeney Employment Agreement.”

(2)

As further described above under “Executive Employment Agreements-Jackson Employment Agreement,” if Mr. Jackson is terminated without “cause” or resigns for “good reason”, then subject to his execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with the covenants in his employment agreement, Mr. Jackson will be provided a severance package consisting of (i) continued base salary at the monthly rate then in effect during the “Severance Period” (as defined below), (ii) senior executive-level outplacement counseling and support services during the Severance Period, and (iii) a COBRA subsidy during the Severance Period. The “Severance Period” means (x) zero months, if such termination occurs on or prior to January 31, 2021, (y) three months, if such termination occurs between February 1, 2021 and August 10, 2021, or (z) six months, if such termination occurs on or after August 11, 2021. However, if such termination occurs within 24 months following a “change of control,” then Mr. Jackson will instead be provided a lump sum payment equal to the sum of his base salary and last annual bonus paid in the fiscal year completed prior to such termination. In addition, as further described above under “Equity Awards-R. Wayne Jackson,” Mr. Jackson’s outstanding options under his initial option award are eligible for accelerated vesting upon a “change of control” of the Company, subject to Mr. Jackson’s continued employment with the Company as of immediately prior to the applicable transaction. Note that the above estimates do not take into account the potential application of any “best-after-tax” cutback that may apply to Mr. Jackson’s severance payments and benefits if such payments and benefits are subject to the excise tax provisions under Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, as further described above under “-Jackson Employment Agreement.”

(3)

As further described above under “Executive Employment Agreements-Agrawal Employment Agreement,” if Mr. Agrawal’s employment is terminated by us without “cause,” or if Mr. Agrawal resigns for “good reason,” then, in addition to a prorated target annual bonus and prorated annual equity award, Mr. Agrawal would, subject to his execution of a release of claims, be eligible to receive a severance package consisting of (i) 12 months of continued base salary, and (ii) a 12-month COBRA subsidy (plus additional payments to cover the taxes associated with such COBRA subsidy).

(4)

Although Mr. Stewart’s offer letter with us does not contain any severance provisions, Mr. Stewart would be entitled to “double-trigger” accelerated vesting of outstanding equity awards upon a termination without “cause” within 18 months following a “change of control” under the general terms of our equity award plans.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Eugene C. Cavanaugh

Mr. Cavanaugh was not provided with a severance or change-in-control arrangement during his service with the Company. Mr. Cavanaugh’s arrangement was terminable at will by either party upon 14 days’ notice, and upon termination, Mr. Cavanaugh was entitled to receive only accrued but unpaid compensation as of the date of termination.

CEO PAY RATIO DISCLOSURE

As required by SEC rules, we are providing the following information about the relationship of the annualized total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Sean Feeney, to that of our median employee. The pay ratio and annual total compensation amount disclosed in this section are reasonable estimates that have been calculated using methodologies and assumptions permitted by SEC rules.

Median Employee Determination

We identified our median employee in fiscal 2021 by calculating the fiscal 2021 cash compensation for all of our employees, excluding our Chief Executive Officer, who were employed by us on June 30, 2021. Cash compensation included all cash salaries, wages, and bonuses paid to each employee during the fiscal year.

Annual Compensation of Median Employee Using Summary Compensation Table Methodology

After identifying the median employee as described above, we calculated annual total compensation for this employee using the same methodology we use in the Summary Compensation Table. The fiscal 2021 compensation for our median employee was $74,996, and the annualized compensation for our Chief Executive Officer was $3,402,145.

2021 Pay Ratio

Based on the above information, the estimated ratio of the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer to the median employee is 45:1. The pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to the pay ratio reported above, due to variances in business mix, proportion of seasonal and part-time employees, distribution of employees across geographies, and the wide range of methodologies that the SEC rules allow companies to adopt in calculating this pay ratio.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

No member of the Compensation Committee was, during fiscal 2021, an officer or employee of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, or was formerly an officer of the Company or any of our subsidiaries, or, except as described herein, had any relationships requiring disclosure by us under Item 404 of Regulation S-K of the General Rules and Regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

During fiscal 2021, none of our executive officers served as: (i) a member of the compensation committee (or other committee of the board of directors performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Compensation Committee; (ii) a director of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on our Compensation Committee; or (iii) a member of the compensation committee (or other committee of the board of directors performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of another entity, one of whose executive officers served as a director on our board of directors.

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE

The Audit Committee’s primary responsibility is to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its responsibility to oversee and review the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and internal controls over financial reporting, and the independent auditor’s qualifications and independence.

Management has the primary responsibility for the preparation of the financial statements and establishing effective internal controls over financial reporting. The Company’s management has represented to the Audit Committee that the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (BDO USA, LLP) is responsible for auditing these consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of the Company’s audited financial statements with generally accepted accounting principles and on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting based on criteria established in 2013 by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

In the performance of its oversight function, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with management and BDO the audited consolidated financial statements contained in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021, including the critical accounting policies applied by the Company in the preparation of these financial statements. The Audit Committee discussed with BDO the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission.

In addition, the Audit Committee received from BDO the written disclosures required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and discussed with such firm its independence from the Company and the Company’s management. At its meetings in fiscal year 2021, the Audit Committee met with the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and other senior members of the Company’s management. The Audit Committee reviewed with BDO the overall scope and plans for their audit in fiscal year 2021. The Audit Committee also received regular updates from the Company’s Chief Financial Officer on internal controls and business risks and from the Company’s General Counsel, who leads the Company’s compliance program, on compliance and ethics issues.

The Audit Committee met with BDO, with and without management present, to discuss their evaluations of the Company’s internal controls and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Audit Committee also met with the Company’s General Counsel, with and without management present, to review and discuss compliance and ethics matters, including compliance with the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics.

On an ongoing basis, the Audit Committee considers the independence, qualifications, compensation and performance of BDO. Such consideration includes reviewing the written disclosures and the letter provided by BDO in accordance with applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and discussing with the BDO their independence.

The Audit Committee is responsible for the approval of audit and audit-related fees, and the Committee reviewed and pre-approved all fees paid to BDO in fiscal year 2021. The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for pre-approval of services to be performed by the independent auditor. Further information on this policy and on the fees paid to BDO in fiscal year 2021 can be found in the section of this proxy statement titled “PRINCIPAL ACCOUNTANT FEES AND SERVICES.” The Audit Committee also monitors the Company’s hiring of former employees of BDO.

The Audit Committee concluded that BDO is independent from the Company and its management, and has retained BDO as the Company’s independent auditor for fiscal year 2022. The Audit Committee and the Board believe that the continued retention of BDO is in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders and have recommended that shareholders ratify the appointment of BDO as the Company’s independent auditor for fiscal year 2022.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OTHER MATTERS

Expenses of Solicitation

All costs of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In addition to solicitations by mail, our directors, officers and employees, without additional remuneration, may solicit proxies by telephone and personal interviews. Brokers, custodians and fiduciaries will be requested to forward proxy soliciting material to the owners of stock held in their names, and we will reimburse them for their related out-of-pocket expenses.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

We have adopted a formal written policy, which is set forth in our Audit Committee Charter, that our Audit Committee review and approve all related-party transactions, defined by, or those transactions required to be disclosed under, Item 404 of Regulation S-K. Executive officers, directors, holders of more than 5% of any class of our voting securities, and any member of the immediate family of, and any entity affiliated with, any of the foregoing persons, are not permitted to enter into a related person transaction with us without the prior consent of our Audit Committee. Any request for us to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, principal shareholder, or any of their immediate family members or affiliates, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000 is considered a “related party transaction” and must first be presented to our Audit Committee for review, consideration and approval. In approving or rejecting any such proposal, our Audit Committee is to consider the relevant facts and circumstances available and deemed relevant to the Audit Committee, including, but not limited to, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.

In addition, under our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, our executive officers and directors have a responsibility to disclose any transaction or relationship that reasonably could be expected to interfere with their exercise of independent judgment or materially impair the performance of their responsibilities to our Board of Directors, which shall be responsible for reviewing such transaction or relationship and determining whether any action needs to be taken.

Participation in Equity Raise

On February 24, 2021, the Company entered into separate subscription agreements in identical form and substance (the “Subscription Agreements”) with institutional accredited investors (the “Purchasers”) relating to a private placement (the “Private Placement”) with respect to the sale of an aggregate of 5,730,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock. The Company received aggregate gross proceeds from the Private Placement of approximately $55 million, before deducting fees to the placement agents and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company, based on the offering price of $9.60 per share (the “Purchase Price”). The financing syndicate included affiliates of Hudson Executive, which purchased 975,000 of the Shares sold in the Private Placement for the same Purchase Price and on the same terms as the other Purchasers. The Purchase Price and other terms of the Private Placement were approved by a special pricing committee of the Company’s board of directors comprised solely of independent and disinterested directors. The Private Placement closed on March 4, 2021. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Private Placement for general corporate purposes. J.P. Morgan Securities LLC acted as lead placement agent and Craig-Hallum Capital Group LLC and Northland Capital Markets acted as joint placement agents in connection with the Private Placement (together, the “Placement Agents”). The Company agreed to pay the Placement Agents an aggregate cash fee of approximately $2.28 million, representing 5% of the gross proceeds of the Private Placement, excluding the gross proceeds received by the Company from Hudson Executive in the Private Placement.

Certain Employees of Hudson Executive Provide Consulting Services to the Company

Two employees of Hudson Executive, a greater than 10% shareholder of the Company, entered into consulting agreements with the Company in August and September of 2020, respectively, under which the consultants are to provide financial and strategic analysis and advisory services to the CEO through July 31, 2021.

In September 2021, the Company extended these consulting agreements through July 31, 2022 and, in connection therewith, the consultants were granted an additional 7,500 and 12,500 restricted stock units, respectively. Hudson Executive is not a party to these agreements and does not receive any compensation for the services provided by the consultants to the CEO.
