Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
On March 25, 2022, Inuvo, Inc. (the "Company") announced the election of (a) Jonathan Bond to the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") as a Class II director, effective March 25, 2022, to serve until the 2022 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is duly elected; and (b) Kenneth Lee to the Company's Board as a Class III director, effective March 25, 2022, to serve until the 2023 annual meeting of shareholders and until his successor is duly elected. Messrs. Bond and Lee were elected to fill vacancies on the Board, which brings the total number of directors on the Board to six.
Mr. Bond is one of the advertising and marketing industry's most recognized thought leaders and entrepreneurs, with over 35 years of experience. He previously was the Co-Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Kirshenbaum Bond Senecal & Partners LLC ("KBP"). Prior to KBP, Mr. Bond served as the Chief Executive Officer of Big Fuel (now part of Publicis), one of the world's largest social media agencies that serves blue chip clients. He helped establish
iballs
, one of the first online media agencies, which sold to Microsoft in the early 2000s. He also co-founded Media Kitchen and Varick under the KBP umbrella. From 2015 to December 2016, Mr. Bond was the founder of Tomorro LLC, an innovation consultancy. From January 2017 to June 2018, Mr. Bond was the Co-Chairman at The Shipyard, a full-service advertising agency focused on data science, which acquired Tomorro LLC. From June 2017 to June 2020, Mr. Bond was the Chairman and director of SITO Mobile, Ltd. He is currently fractional CMO/partner of Blue Bear Protection, Lacure and Halo Collar and a member of the board of directors of Sonobi, Inc. Mr. Bond has had investments and/or board roles at White Ops, Compound (formerly known as Metamorphic Ventures), TZP Group, Victors and Spoils (now part of Havas), Simplifi, Appinions, Data Xu, BlackBook magazine and Klout. Mr. Bond received a Bachelor of Arts from Washington University (St. Louis).
Mr. Lee is a Senior Vice President at Ingalls & Snyder in New York, where he manages and co-manages customized portfolios for private clients, investment partnerships and institutions. Mr. Lee came to Ingalls in 2018 with a group of clients that trace back to Bridgehampton Capital Management LLC, which Mr. Lee founded in 2006, and merged into Tocqueville Asset Management in 2014. Prior to starting his own firm, Mr. Lee joined Salomon Brothers Asset Management (SBAM) in 1998 where he managed over $1 billion in convertible and corporate bonds in a multi-strategy hedge fund setting within SBAM. Prior to SBAM, Mr. Lee worked for Brown Brothers Harriman in sell-side equity research focusing on technology and financial services firms. In addition, he has had multiple leadership roles on non-profit boards and is a member of the board of directors of CCX Network, Inc., a private telecommunications identity startup. Mr. Lee has a B.A. in History from Wesleyan University and an M.B.A. in Finance and Management from the Stern School of Business, New York University.
Neither Mr. Bond nor Mr. Lee have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction with the Company required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. There is no arrangement or understanding between either of Mr. Bond or Mr. Lee and any other person pursuant to which either Mr. Bond or Mr. Lee was selected as a director.
As with each of the Company's independent directors, Messrs. Bond and Lee will each be entitled to receive compensation for service on the Board.  The current annual compensation for independent directors of the Company is $30,000 in cash and 30,000 restricted stock units.
Each of Mr. Bond and Mr. Lee has also entered into the Company's standard indemnification agreement for directors, the form of which was previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.5 to the Company's Form 10-Q for the three month period ended September 30, 2018, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 7, 2018.
A press release announcing the election of Messrs. Bond and Lee is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
