On September 13, 2016, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Paramount Gold Nevada Corp. (the “Company”) appointed Pierre Pelletier as a director to the Board. It is not yet known to which committee(s) of the Board of Directors Mr. Pelletier will be appointed.
As a non-employee director of the Company, Mr. Pelletier will receive an annual retainer of $10,000 along with equity compensation as determined by the Compensation Committee. On the date of his appointment Mr. Pelletier was granted 50,000 stock options of the Company
at an exercise price of $2.12 per share, which is equal to the closing sales price for our common stock as quoted on the NYSE MKT stock market on September 13, 2016. One third of the stock options vest immediately, one third vest on the first anniversary of the grant and the Company’s share price closing above 35% of the exercise price for ten days and one third on the second anniversary of the grant and the Company’s share price closing above 50% of the exercise price for ten days. The ten days for the unvested options do not have to be consecutive. The term of the stock option grant is five years.
There are no transactions between Mr. Pelletier and the Company that would be required to be reported under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
The Company’s press release announcing the appointment is attached to this Report as Exhibit 99.1.
