Item 5.02

Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

The Company has not renewed the employment agreements of Dr. Harry Leider, its Chief Executive Officer and Dr. Howard Golub, its Chief Science Officer and has given them notice of non-renewal in accordance with the terms of the employment agreements. Accordingly, the employment agreements expired and the employment of Drs. Leider and Golub by the Company ended on May 31, 2024. In addition, as a result of the non-renewal of his employment agreement, Dr. Leider no longer serves as a director of ZEO, as provided for therein.

Effective June 1, 2024, our board of directors appointed Ian T. Bothwell, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer to serve in the additional position of Interim Chief Executive Officer, while the board undertakes its process to identify suitable candidates to fill the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Science Officer positions.

Dr. Leider has advised that he may seek severance from the Company. We believe that he is not entitled to severance, as it is not provided for in the case of a non-renewal of the term of the employment agreement.
