Elements of Compensation
Our executive compensation program consisted of the following components of compensation in 2025 and 2024:
Base Salary
Each of our executive officers receives a base salary for the expertise, skills, knowledge and experience he or she offers to our management team. The base salary of each of our executive officers is re-evaluated annually, and may be adjusted to reflect:
| ● | the nature, responsibilities, and duties of the officer’s position; |
| ● | the officer’s expertise, demonstrated leadership ability, and prior performance; |
| ● | the officer’s salary history and total compensation, including annual equity incentive awards; and |
| ● | the competitiveness of the officer’s base salary. |
Equity Incentive Awards
Moving forward, we believe that to attract and retain management, key employees and non-management directors, the compensation paid to these persons should include, in addition to base salary, annual equity incentives. Our Compensation committee will determine the amount and terms of equity-based compensation granted to each individual. In determining whether to grant certain equity awards to our executive officers, the Compensation Committee will assess the level of the executive officer’s achievement of meeting individual goals, as well as the executive officer’s contribution towards goals of the Company. Whenever possible, equity incentive awards will be granted under our equity incentive plan, described below. Since the Company does not currently grant equity awards, it has not yet adopted a policy or practice regarding granting equity awards.
Employment Agreements and Potential Payments upon Termination or Change of Control
On June 1, 2022, Taehoon Kim entered into an employment agreement to serve as Chief Technology Officer and Vice President. He was subsequently appointed Interim Chief Executive Officer on February 26, 2024 and later formally appointed Chief Executive Officer on March 26, 2026 by the Board of Directors respectively. Effective April 1, 2024, he received an annual base salary of $58,600 under an initial one-year term commencing March 1, 2024, and continued serving in such capacity after the expiration of the initial term.
On May 3, 2021, Juhyon Shin entered into an employment agreement to serve as Chief Financial Officer. Effective April 1, 2024, he received an annual base salary of $44,000 under an initial one-year term beginning April 1, 2024, and continued serving in such capacity after the expiration of the initial term. On December 22, 2025, Mr. Shin submitted his resignation, which was accepted by the Company in March 2026 and disclosed in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed on March 19, 2026.
None of the aforementioned employment agreements require any payments beyond salary already earned in the event of the executive’s termination or a change in control.
Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year-End
There were no outstanding stock option awards, or other equity-based awards, held by any of the Named Executive Officers as of December 31, 2025.
Director Compensation
Each of our non-employee directors are entitled to receive a monthly retainer of $3,000 for serving on the Board, which fee may be paid either in cash, options or shares of common stock. As of December 31, 2025, we have paid no compensation to non-employee directors.
