Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan

On September 19, 2022, the Company held a Board of Directors meeting, whereas, the Board of Directors had elected to adopt an Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2022 Plan”), that includes reserving 200,000 shares of common stock eligible for issuance under the 2022 Plan to be registered on a Form S-8 Registration Statement with the SEC. The 2022 Plan is designed to enable the flexibility to grant equity awards to the Company’s officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants and to ensure that it can continue to grant equity awards to eligible recipients at levels determined to be appropriate by the Board and/or the Compensation Committee. The 2022 Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on December 2, 2022.

On April 3, 2023, the Company approved incentive stock awards for the CFO, certain officers and directors and other employees of the Company. The awards are in the form of restricted stock and will vest in two parts: 50% on October 2, 2023 and 50% on October 2, 2024. A total of 185,000 shares were awarded and a corresponding share-based compensation expense of $323,957 was recorded for the 12 months ended December 31, 2023, respectively, based on the amortization of fair value from the date of issuance of April 3, 2023 through December 31, 2023.

On August 21, 2023, the Board adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the Cosmos Health Inc. 2023 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”). The 2023 Plan is designed to enable the flexibility to grant equity awards to our officers, employees, non-employee directors and consultants and to ensure that we can continue to grant equity awards to eligible recipients at levels determined to be appropriate by the Board and/or the Compensation Committee. Subject to certain adjustments (as provided in Section 4.2 of the 2023 Plan) and exception (as provided in Section 5.6(b) of the 2023 Plan), the maximum number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2023 Plan (including incentive share options) is 2,500,000 shares. The 2023 Plan was approved by the Company’s stockholders at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders held on September 18, 2023.

Clawback Policy

On November 28, 2023, the Board of Directors adopted a clawback policy which provides for the recovery of certain executive compensation in the event of an accounting restatement resulting from material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements under the federal securities laws. There have been no accounting restatements to date, nor is there any compensation to be recovered.
