Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 2, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of BNB Plus Corp. (the “Company”) appointed James Haft to serve as a director and as a member of the Nominating Committee of the Board, effective February 2, 2026, until his successor has been duly elected and qualified, or until his earlier resignation or removal. At the time of Mr. Haft’s appointment, the Board had a vacancy as the result of Ms. Schmalz Shaheen’s resignation, as previously disclosed.
For Mr. Haft’s services as a director, on February 2, 2026, the Board approved and entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) with Mr. Haft. Pursuant to the terms of the Letter Agreement, Mr. Haft will receive (i) a one-time cash fee of $40,000 to be paid within seven days of his appointment, and (ii) an initial option grant to purchase up to 93,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (“Initial Option Grant”) at a price of $1.31 per share. The Initial Option Grant will vest in four equal installments on May 2, 2026, August 2, 2026, November 2, 2026 and February 2, 2027. The Initial Option Grant will be governed by the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, as amended, and the Company’s form of agreement thereunder. Mr. Haft will also be eligible to receive future options or other equity grants for continued Board service pursuant to the Company’s standard director compensation policy.
Mr. Haft will also enter into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for directors and officers (the “Indemnification Agreement”), the form of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by the Company on September 13, 2012. Pursuant to the terms of the Indemnification Agreement, the Company may be required, among other things, to indemnify Mr. Haft for certain expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, retainers, court costs, transcripts, fees of experts, witness fees, travel expenses, duplicating costs, printing and binding costs, telephone charges, postage, delivery service fees and all other disbursements or expenses incurred by him in any action, proceeding or appeal arising out of his service on the Board or in connection with establishing or enforcing a right to indemnification.
There are no family relationships among Mr. Haft and any of the Company’s directors and executive officers and there are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Haft and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed as director. Except for a $250,000 investment in the Company’s PIPE transaction that closed in October 2025 by Gaia Digital Assets Fund, which was co-founded by Mr. Haft’s son Jacob Haft and of which Jacob Haft is a managing partner, neither Mr. Haft nor any of his immediate family members have been a party to any transaction with the Company, nor is any such transaction currently proposed, that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. Mr. Haft has no involvement in the management of Gaia Digital Assets Fund.
The foregoing description of the Letter Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Letter Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
