Pursuant
to that certain Securities Purchase Agreement, dated December 10, 2024, by and among the company and certain investors (as defined therein),
Messrs. Baltsos, Khorassani, and Hancox were appointed to the Board of Directors.
Board
Constitution
Our
Board of Directors currently consists of five members. All directors hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders. At each
annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire are elected to serve from the time of election and
qualification until the next annual meeting following election.
Director
Independence
Our Board of Directors is comprised
of a majority of independent directors, as “independence,” is defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market
and by the SEC. Our Board of Directors has concluded that each of Messrs. Balatsos, Hancox, and Khorassani is “independent”,
having concluded that any relationship between such director and our company, in its opinion, does not interfere with the exercise of
independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Our Board of Directors has concluded that Mr. McCain is not “independent”
due to the amount of fees paid by Hensley Beverage Company to us pursuant that certain Managed Services Agreement, and Mr. Jemmett is
not “independent” because he is an employee director.
Board
Committees
Our
Board of Directors has three standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee, and Governance and Nominating Committee.
Audit
Committee
The
Audit Committee of our Board of Directors was established in accordance with Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The current
members of our Audit Committee are Messrs. Balatsos, Hancox, and Khorassani, with Mr. Khorassani serving as the chair. Each member of the Audit
Committee meets the independence and other requirements to serve on our Audit Committee under The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules and the rules
of the SEC. In addition, our Board of Directors determined that each of Messrs. Balatsos, Hancox, and Khorassani is financially literate
and considered an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in the rules of the SEC.
Former
directors Reid S. Holbrook and Ernest M. (Kiki) VanDeWeghe, III, served on the Audit Committee during fiscal year 2025 until their
resignation in January 2025. Mr. McCain served as chair of the Audit Committee during fiscal 2025.
The
Audit Committee was formed in 2021. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee, a copy of which is
posted in the Investor Resources and Corporate Governance section of our website at www.ciso.inc/investor-relations/charter-of-the-audit-committee.
The principal functions of the Audit Committee are to oversee our accounting and financial reporting processes and the audits of our
consolidated financial statements; oversee our relationship with our independent auditors, including selecting, evaluating, and setting
the compensation of, and approving all audit and non-audit services to be performed by the independent auditors; and facilitate communication
among our independent registered public accounting firm and our financial and senior management.
Additionally,
the Audit Committee reviews related party transactions, manages complaints regarding accounting matters, and reports its findings and
recommendations to the Board of Directors.
Compensation
Committee
We
have a standing Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors. The members of our Compensation Committee are Messrs. Balatsos,
Hancox, and Khorassani, with Mr. Hancox serving as the chair. Each member of the Compensation Committee meets the
independence and other requirements to serve on our Compensation Committee under The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules and the rules of the
SEC.
Former
directors Reid S. Holbrook and Ernest M. (Kiki) VanDeWeghe, III, served on the Compensation Committee during fiscal year 2025 until their
resignation in January 2025. During fiscal 2025, Mr. McCain served on the Compensation Committee and Mr. Khorassani served as chair of the Compensation Committee.
The
Compensation Committee was formed in 2021. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Compensation Committee, a copy
of which is posted in the Investor Resources and Corporate Governance section of our website at www.ciso.inc/investor-relations/charter-of-the-compensation-committee.
The Compensation Committee has responsibilities relating to the performance evaluation and the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer;
the compensation of our executive officers and directors; and our significant compensation arrangements, plans, policies, and programs,
including our stock compensation plans. Certain of our executive officers, our outside counsel, and consultants may occasionally attend
the meetings of the Compensation Committee. However, no officer of our company is present during discussions or deliberations regarding
that officer’s own compensation.
Governance
and Nominating Committee
We
have a standing Governance and Nominating Committee of our Board of Directors. The current members of our Governance and Nominating
Committee are Messrs. Balatsos, Hancox, and Khorassani, with Mr. Khorassani serving as the chair. Each of Messrs. Balatsos, Hancox
and Khorassani meets the independence and other requirements to serve on our Governance and Nominating Committee under
The Nasdaq Stock Market Rules and the rules of the SEC.
Former
directors Reid S. Holbrook, Ret. General Robert C. Oaks, and Ernest M. (Kiki) VanDeWeghe, III, served on the Governance and
Nominating Committee during fiscal year 2025 until their resignation in January 2025. Mr. Hancox served as chair of the Governance
and Nominating Committee during fiscal 2025.
The
Governance and Nominating Committee was formed in 2021. Our Board of Directors has adopted a written charter for the Governance and Nominating
Committee, a copy of which is posted in the Investor Resources and Corporate Governance section of our website at www.ciso.inc/investor-relations/charter-of-the-nominating-and-corporate-governance-committee.
The Governance and Nominating Committee considers the performance of the members of our Board of Directors and nominees for director
positions and evaluates and oversees corporate governance and related issues.
The
goal of the Governance and Nominating Committee is to ensure that our directors possess a variety of perspectives and skills derived
from high-quality business and professional experience. The Governance and Nominating Committee seeks to achieve a balance of knowledge,
experience, and capability on our Board of Directors. To this end, the Governance and Nominating Committee seeks nominees with the highest
professional and personal ethics and values, an understanding of our business and industry, diversity of business experience and expertise,
a high level of education, broad-based business acumen, and the ability to think strategically. Although the Governance and Nominating
Committee uses these and other criteria to evaluate potential nominees to our Board of Directors, it has no stated minimum criteria for
such nominees. The Governance and Nominating Committee does not use different standards to evaluate nominees depending on whether they
are proposed by our directors and management or by our stockholders. To date, we have not paid any third parties to assist us in this
process.
Code
of Ethics
We
have adopted a Code of Ethics and Business Conduct (“Code of Ethics”) that sets forth various policies and procedures to
promote ethical behavior and that applies to all our directors, officers and employees. The Code of Ethics is publicly available in the
Investor Resources and Corporate Governance section of our website at https://www.ciso.inc/investor-relations/code-of-ethics-and-business-conduct.
Amendments to the Code of Ethics and any grant of a waiver from a provision of the Code of Ethics requiring disclosure under applicable
SEC rules will be disclosed on our website.
Delinquent
Section 16(a) Reports
Section
16(a) of the Exchange Act, requires officers and directors of our company and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of a registered
class of our company’s equity securities to file initial statements of beneficial ownership of common stock (Form 3) and statements
of changes in beneficial ownership of common stock (Forms 4 or 5) with the SEC. Officers, directors, and greater than 10% stockholders
are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all such forms they file.
Based
solely on our review of such reports and certain representations from each reporting person, we believe that during 2025, the following
Section 16(a) filing requirements were not satisfied on a timely basis: Form 3 filed by Mohsen Khorassani on December 30, 2025, Form
3 filed by Andrew K McCain on December 30, 2025, Form 4 filed by Andrew K McCain on December 30, 2025, Form 4 filed by David Grant Jemmet
on December 30, 2025, and Form 4/A filed Debra Lou Smith on December 30, 2025.
Inside
Trading Policy Disclosure
We
have adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other disposition of our securities by our directors, officers,
and employees. We believe that our Insider Trading Policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules,
and regulations and the exchange listing standards applicable to us. A copy of our Insider Trading Policy is filed as Exhibit 19.1 to
this Annual Report on Form 10-K.
