Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. 


On August 7, 2017, the Board of Directors (the Board ) of GelTech Solutions, Inc. (the Company ) approved an increase on Mr. Peter Cordani s commissions to 5% of the first $5 million of revenue generated by the Company in each calendar year subject to continued employment during the full calendar year.  Previously, Mr. Cordani’s commission was on the first $2 million of revenue.  


Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.


On August 4, 2017, the Board adopted the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”).  Employees, directors and consultants of the Company are eligible to participate in the Equity Incentive Plan.  The Equity Incentive Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee of the Board or the full Board during such times as no committee is appointed by the Board or during such times as the Board is acting in lieu of the committee (in either case, the “Committee”). The Equity Incentive Plan provides for the grant of equity-based compensation in the form of incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance cash and other share-based awards.


The Committee has the authority to determine the type of award, as well as the amount, terms and conditions of each award, under the Equity Incentive Plan, subject to the limitations and other provisions of the Equity Incentive Plan.  An aggregate of 5,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock are authorized for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan, subject to adjustment for stock splits, dividends, distributions, recapitalizations and other similar transactions or events.  The Equity Incentive Plan replaces the Company’s 2007 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Old Plan”), which expired in January 2017, and no further awards will be made pursuant to such plan.


In connection with the adoption of the Plan, the Board was granted an automatic annual grant of options identical to the automatic grants that were previously issued each year for Board service under the Old Plan.  


The foregoing summary of the Equity Incentive Plan is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Equity Incentive Plan, filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.


Additionally, on August 7, 2017, Mr. Peter Cordani was granted 500,000 fully vested 10-year stock options exercisable at $0.2039 per share.
