On October 3, 2016, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the implementation of certain cost saving measures which included a reduction in staff of 21 employees, or approximately 38% of the company’s workforce as the result of a comprehensive business review to improve financial performance, increase operational efficiencies and strengthen the Company’s value proposition. The implementation of the staff reduction was started on October 3, 2016 and completed on October 4, 2016. Conditional on the execution of a release of potential claims, all employees whose employment was terminated as part of the workforce reduction were provided with severance pay and benefits. We estimate the staff reductions will result in savings of approximately $2.0 million in cash operating expenses on a going forward basis, with estimated one-time severance and related costs related to the restructuring of approximately $465,000 expected to be recorded in the 4th quarter of 2016.
