Item 11. Executive Compensation
Compensation Discussion & Analysis
References herein to our named executive officers refer to:
· David W. Sides, President and Chief Executive Officer;
· Nicholas A. Meeks, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer;
· Randolph W. Salisbury, Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer; and
· Shaun L. Priest, our former Senior Vice President and Chief Growth Officer.
Executive Summary
The Compensation Committee has a conservative pay-for-performance compensation philosophy and endeavors to have executive compensation practices that align executive pay with company performance. In fiscal year 2017, the Compensation Committee took the following actions with respect to the executive compensation program:
· Made only modest increases to base salaries;
· Continued to consider adjusted EBITDA, revenue and sales performance as financial measures for executive bonuses; and
· Continued to award stock options and restricted stock in order to align the interests of our executives with those of our stockholders and provide appropriate performance and retention incentives.
Streamlines financial performance in fiscal year 2017 did not meet all the companys goals. As a result, the Compensation Committee did not award bonuses to the companys executives. The Compensation Committee believes any bonuses awarded should demonstrate strong alignment between executive pay and company performance.
The Compensation Committee has recently made the following decisions with respect to the companys executive compensation in fiscal year 2018:
· The base salaries for certain executive officers have been modestly increased.
Compensation Philosophy
The Compensation Committee believes that executive compensation should be conservative and (i) provide an incentive for Streamlines executives to achieve the companys goals, (ii) reward executives with equity interests in the company and align the interests of executives with stockholder interests to enhance stockholder value and (iii) attract and retain key executives critical to Streamlines long-term success. Under the oversight of the Compensation Committee, the company has developed and implemented a pay-for-performance executive compensation program that rewards senior management for the achievement of certain financial performance objectives. Streamline achieves the philosophies of pay-for-performance and alignment of executive compensation with stockholder value primarily by providing a substantial portion of each executive officers total annual compensation through annual short-term cash bonus opportunities and grants of long-term equity, primarily in the form of stock options and restricted stock. We describe our fiscal year 2017 short-term incentive plan in greater detail below under Cash Bonus Opportunity and describe equity grants in more detail under Long-Term Equity Incentive CompensationStock Options and Restricted Stock.
Say on Pay Results and Consideration of Stockholder Support
At the Annual Meeting of Stockholders on June 1, 2017, over 96% of the votes cast were in favor of the advisory vote to approve executive compensation. The Compensation Committee considered this positive result and concluded that the stockholders continue to support the compensation paid to our executive officers and the companys overall pay practices.
In light of this support, the Compensation Committee decided to retain the core design of our executive compensation program for fiscal year 2017, with an emphasis on short and long-term incentive compensation that rewards our senior executives when they successfully implement our business plan and, in turn, deliver value for our
stockholders.
The committee will continue to monitor best practices, future advisory votes on executive compensation and other stockholder feedback to guide it in evaluating the alignment of the companys executive compensation program with the interests of the company and its stockholders.
Overview of Streamlines Executive Compensation
The Compensation Committee designed the companys compensation program to provide our executive officers with a combination of cash (salary and bonus) and long-term equity incentive compensation to align their interests with those of our stockholders. For fiscal year 2017, our executive officer compensation primarily consisted of the following components:
· base salary;
· cash bonus opportunity; and
· long-term equity incentive awards.
Although the Compensation Committee has not established a policy or formula for the allocation of total compensation among these different elements of total executive officer compensation, the Compensation Committee endeavors to offer an appropriate mix among the different types of compensation:
· to motivate executive officers to deliver superior short-term performance by providing conservative, but competitive, base salaries and cash bonus opportunities;
· to align the interests of our executive officers with the long-term interests of the companys stockholders through the grant of equity incentive awards; and
· to provide an overall compensation package that is conservative, but competitive and, therefore, promotes executive recruitment and retention.
The Compensation Committee Process
The Compensation Committee has the primary authority to determine Streamlines compensation philosophy and to establish compensation for the executive officers. In establishing executive officer compensation, the Compensation Committee uses its subjective evaluation of the executives performance and responsibilities, the companys overall performance and the President and Chief Executive Officers recommendations. The Compensation Committee does not typically use any compensation consultant in setting executive salaries, or in determining other components of executive compensation. Additionally, the Compensation Committee does not typically benchmark the compensation of executive officers against compensation paid by other companies to their executives.
Managements Role in the Compensation-Setting Process
Company management plays a significant role in the compensation-setting process. The most significant aspects of managements role are:
· evaluating associate performance;
· preparing information for Compensation Committee meetings;
· establishing business performance targets and objectives;
· providing information about the companys strategic objectives; and
· recommending salary levels and equity awards.
In the past, the Compensation Committee has authorized the President and Chief Executive Officer to negotiate employment agreements with senior executive officers (other than himself). The negotiated employment agreements are subject to review and approval by the Compensation Committee. Also, in certain circumstances, the Compensation Committee may delegate to one or more of our officers the authority to grant awards, and to make other determinations under the Streamline Health Solutions, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2013 Stock
Incentive Plan (the 2013 Plan) with respect to such awards, to persons who are not directors or officers subject to the provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, and who are not subject to the requirements of covered employees under Section 162(m) of the Code.
Base Salary
The Compensation Committee seeks to provide base salaries for our executive officers that provide guaranteed cash compensation in accordance with their experience, professional status and job responsibilities. Salaries for our named executive officers are generally provided for in their employment agreements, subject to review and adjustment by the Compensation Committee from time to time. The Compensation Committee has not historically retained a compensation consultant to assist it in determining appropriate compensation levels and has not engaged in any formal benchmarking processes. The Compensation Committee has instead relied on the general knowledge, experience and judgment of its members, both with regard to competitive compensation levels and the relative success that has been achieved by the company. In addition, the committee takes into account: years of service; level of experience; individual areas of responsibility; the annual rate of inflation; and the companys operating performance.
The following table sets forth the base salaries for each of our named executive officers in effect as of January 31, 2018:

Benefits
Streamline offers a comprehensive package of employee retirement and welfare benefits (including group life insurance, health and dental care insurance, and long-term disability insurance), in which executive officers may participate on the same basis as other full-time associates.
Streamline currently sponsors a 401(k) Plan for all of our eligible associates. This plan (the 401(k) Plan) is a tax-qualified retirement plan designed to meet the requirements of Sections 401(a) and 401(k) of the Code. Under the 401(k) Plan, participants may elect to make pre-tax savings deferrals from 1 percent to 60 percent of their compensation each year, subject to annual limits on such deferrals (e.g., $18,000 in 2017) imposed by the Code. Participants age 50 and older also may elect to make certain catch-up contributions, subject to a separate annual limit on such contributions (e.g., $6,000 in 2017) imposed by the Code. New participants automatically defer 6% of their compensation unless they make a contrary election. The company matches dollar for dollar the first 4% of each associates income contributed to the 401(k) Plan, including those contributions made by the executive officers.
The company also offers the Amended and Restated 1996 Associate Stock Purchase Plan (the ESPP) to encourage stock ownership by our associates, including our executive officers, at an approximate 15% discount to the market price.
Perquisites
Streamline offers limited perquisites to our executive officers. The perquisites provided to each executive officer in fiscal year 2017 totaled less than $10,000 and less than 10% of total annual salary and bonus reported for each executive officer.
Cash Bonus Opportunity
Each executive officers employment agreement establishes a cash bonus target as a percentage of his base salary. The following table sets forth the target bonuses for each of our named executive officers in effect as of January 31, 2018.

The Compensation Committee believes that cash bonuses should be contingent on performance relative to pre-established targets and objectives. Each cash bonus is determined based on whether these pre-established performance goals are met, upon which, the executives would be eligible to receive a bonus in an amount determined by the Compensation Committee, although the Compensation Committee may elect not to award such bonuses. For the named executive officers to have been eligible for the cash bonus for fiscal year 2017 to be paid at target levels, the company was required to meet financial targets, as determined through an internal planning process, as follows:
· An adjusted EBITDA target of $2.8 million;
· Sales bookings as $7.7 million in annualized contract value; and
· Revenue of $28.1 million.
We calculate adjusted EBITDA as net earnings (loss) plus interest expense, tax expense, depreciation and amortization expense of tangible and intangible assets, stock-based compensation expense, significant non-recurring operating expenses, and transaction-related expenses, including: gains and losses on debt and equity conversions, associate severances and related restructuring expenses, associate inducements, and professional and advisory fees. In awarding any additional cash bonus amounts above target amounts, the Compensation Committee would consider extraordinary company financial performance, as well as personal performance involving executive leadership.
The Compensation Committee determined that not all of the objective financial goals were achieved for fiscal year 2017, and as a result, cash bonuses were not awarded. In awarding cash bonuses to executive officers for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2019, the Compensation Committee will consider multiple potential performance criteria including sales, adjusted EBITDA and revenue targets, as well as successful completion of certain aspects of the companys strategic objectives.
Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation Stock Options and Restricted Stock
Streamline currently grants equity awards under the 2013 Plan. On June 1, 2017, our stockholders approved an amendment to the 2013 Plan to, among other things, increase the number of available shares under the plan by 300,000 shares. Awards can be granted under the 2013 Plan until April 12, 2027 or the earlier termination of the 2013 Plan by the board. The 2013 Plan permits the grant of stock options (both incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options), stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, and other incentive awards. As of January 31, 2018, there were 271,101 shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan.
In fiscal year 2017, long-term incentive compensation to key personnel, including the companys named executive officers, was comprised primarily of stock option awards. The stock options awarded last year vest ratably over a three year period from the date of grant. The Compensation Committee believes that its fiscal year 2017 approach to long-term incentive compensation provided the appropriate long-term incentives from both executive retention and pay-for-performance perspectives. Because an officer will benefit from a stock option award only to the extent the companys stock price appreciates above the exercise price of the stock option, stock options align the interests of management with those of stockholders and ensure that management achieves gains only to the extent that the companys share value appreciates. The Compensation Committee believes that the granting of stock option awards supports the executive retention goal.
Streamline has historically awarded equity grants to executive officers upon the commencement of their employment with the company. In addition, from time to time, the Compensation Committee has considered and approved additional grants to certain associates of the company, including the executive officers, where circumstances make such grants appropriate to the companys incentive and retention goals. In approving equity grants during fiscal year 2017, the Compensation Committee considered a number of factors, including the number of shares available for grant under the 2013 Plan, the grant rate over certain periods (as a percentage of shares of common stock), the amount of stock options to be granted, the performance of the named executive officer and his role, the impact of specific grants on the total compensation of the named executive officer, and the aggregate retention strength of all unvested equity held by such named executive officer and other key personnel. During fiscal year 2017, the Compensation Committee approved grants of equity incentive awards to certain of our associates, including the following equity grants to our named executive officers:
David W. Sides President and Chief Executive Officer. On March 2, 2017, Mr. Sides was granted an option to purchase 100,000 shares of the companys common stock at $1.18 per share, such options vesting in 36 substantially equal monthly installments commencing on April 2, 2017, subject to Mr. Sides continued employment with the company over such period.
Nicholas A. Meeks Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. On March 2, 2017, Mr. Meeks was granted an option to purchase 75,000 shares of the companys common stock at $1.18 per share, such options vesting in 36 substantially equal monthly installments commencing on April 2, 2017, subject to Mr. Meeks continued employment with the company over such period.
Randolph W. Salisbury Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer. On March 2, 2017, Mr. Salisbury was granted an option to purchase 25,000 shares of the companys common stock at $1.18 per share, such options vesting in 36 substantially equal monthly installments commencing on April 2, 2017, subject to Mr. Salisburys continued employment with the company over such period.
Shaun L. Priest Senior Vice President and Chief Growth Officer. On March 2, 2017, Mr. Priest was granted an option to purchase 50,000 shares of the companys common stock at $1.18 per share, such options vesting in 36 substantially equal monthly installments commencing on April 2, 2017, subject to Mr. Priests continued employment with the company over such period.
Risk Considerations in our Compensation Program
The Compensation Committee generally structures the compensation of the executive officers to consist of both fixed and variable compensation. The fixed (or base salary) portion of compensation is designed to provide a steady income so executives do not feel pressured to focus exclusively on short-term gains or annual stock price performance, which may be to the detriment of long-term appreciation and other business metrics. The variable portion of compensation (e.g., cash bonuses and stock option awards) is designed to reward both individual performance and overall company performance. For individual and company performance, any cash bonuses are determined by the Compensation Committee. Stock options will reward the recipient only if improved overall company performance is reflected in the stock price. The Compensation Committee believes that the variable components of compensation are sufficient to motivate executive officers to produce short-term and long-term company results, while the fixed element is also sufficient such that executives are not encouraged to take unnecessary or excessive risks in doing so.
Employment Agreements
Streamline has entered into employment agreements with each of Messrs. Sides, Meeks, Salisbury and Priest. We describe each of these agreements in more detail below.
On September 10, 2014, the company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Sides, when he joined the company. The term of Mr. Sides employment agreement is two years, after which the agreement renews for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew. As amended, Mr. Sides employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $340,000 (subject to increase at the discretion of the Compensation
Committee) and provides that Mr. Sides will be eligible for an annual cash bonus with a target amount of 65% of his annual base salary, based on the achievement of certain performance objectives. Mr. Sides current annual base salary is $357,213. In addition, Mr. Sides employment agreement contains standard non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. Mr. Sides employment agreement further provides for standard expense reimbursement, vacation time, and other standard executive benefits.
On May 22, 2013, the company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Meeks when he was appointed Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the company. The initial term of Mr. Meeks employment agreement was one year, after which it renews for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew. As amended, Mr. Meeks employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $270,000 (subject to increase at the discretion of the Compensation Committee) and provides that Mr. Meeks will be eligible for an annual cash bonus with a target amount of 40% of his annual base salary, based on the achievement of certain performance objectives. Mr. Meeks current annual base salary is $283,669. In addition, Mr. Meeks employment agreement contains standard non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. Mr. Meeks employment agreement further provides for standard expense reimbursement, vacation time, and other standard executive benefits.
On February 3, 2014, the company entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Salisbury when he was appointed Senior Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of the company. The initial term of Mr. Salisburys employment agreement was one year, after which it renews for successive one-year terms unless either party elects not to renew. As amended, Mr. Salisburys employment agreement provides for an annual base salary of $225,000 (subject to increase at the discretion of the Compensation Committee) and provides that Mr. Salisbury will be eligible for an annual cash bonus with a target amount of 50% of his annual base salary, based on the achievement of certain performance objectives. Mr. Salisburys current annual base salary is $232,925. In addition, Mr. Salisburys employment agreement contains standard non-competition and non-solicitation provisions. Mr. Salisburys employment agreement further provides for standard expense reimbursement, vacation time, and other standard executive benefits.
Mr. Priest resigned from his position as our Senior Vice President and Chief Growth Officer effective May 25, 2018. Mr. Priest did not receive any severance in connection with his resignation.
Each of the employment agreements with Streamlines named executive officers provides assurances to the company with regard to the availability of the executives services, provides protection for the Companys confidential information and trade secrets, and restricts the ability of the executive officers to compete with the Company during their employment and for a specified period after its termination. In return, the executive officers are provided assurances with regard to salary, other compensation and benefits, as well as severance benefits if their employment is terminated by the Company other than for good cause. For this purpose, good cause includes the current use of illegal drugs, conviction of any crime which involves moral turpitude, fraud or misrepresentation, commission of any act which would constitute a felony and which adversely impacts the business or reputation of the Company, fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement of company funds or property; wrongful conduct which is materially injurious to the reputation, business or business relationships of the company; material violation or default on any of the provisions of the employment agreement, and the material and continuous failure to meet reasonable performance criteria or reasonable standards of conduct as established from time to time by the board of directors.
In addition, each of our named executive officers is provided additional assurances following a change of control of the company. In such a situation, they would receive enhanced severance benefits, but only if their employment were terminated without good cause or if they chose to terminate their employment for good reason. This additional double trigger change of control protection has been provided to our named executive officers because they are considered vulnerable in a change of control context due to their positions with the company, their relative levels of equity ownership and the stage of their careers.
Executive Stock Ownership Guidelines
Streamline has not adopted any stock ownership guidelines for executives. Executives are eligible to participate in the ESPP, which allows participants to purchase the companys common stock at an approximate 15% discount to the market price.
Stock Holding Periods
Streamline does not have any stock holding period requirements for executive officers beyond option exercise or restricted stock vesting.
Recoupment Policy
Streamline has not adopted a separate recoupment or clawback policy in the event of a financial restatement, but intends to do so once the SEC finalizes the rules on this matter required by the Dodd-Frank Act.
Income Deduction Limitations
Section 162(m) of the Code generally sets a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that the Company may deduct for federal income tax purposes in any given year with respect to the compensation of each of our named executive officers. For years beginning prior to January 1, 2018, the $1 million limitation did not apply to qualified performance-based compensation that satisfied certain requirements, including, among others, approval of the material terms of the plan by the Companys shareholders. Effective for the years beginning on or after January 1, 2018, there is no exception for qualified performance-based compensation from the Section 162(m) limitation, but a transition rule applies to any such qualified performance-based compensation that is provided pursuant to a written binding contract in effect on November 2, 2017, to the extent not materially modified thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the Compensation Committee reserves the right to grant awards under the 2013 Plan that may not be deductible because of Section 162(m) of the Code as the Compensation Committee, in the exercise of its business judgment, determines appropriate to meet the Companys compensation objectives.

Director Compensation
For the 2017 fiscal year, we paid an annual retainer of $20,000 immediately following our 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to each of our then-serving non-employee directors, other than our Chairman of the Board, whom we paid an annual retainer of $45,000. For the 2018 fiscal year, we will pay each of our non-employee directors an annual retainer of $20,000, other than our Chairman of the Board, whom we will pay an annual retainer of $45,000. In order to attract and retain high quality non-employee independent directors, we allow independent directors to accept restricted stock with a one-year vesting period, in equal value to all or a portion of their annual retainers, in lieu of cash. For the 2017 fiscal year, we did not pay our directors additional fees for meeting attendance.
On June 1, 2017, we also granted each then-serving non-employee director whose service on the Board was continuing beyond the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders (other than the Chairman of the Board) $40,000 in restricted stock with a one-year vesting period. We awarded the Chairman of the Board $55,000 in restricted stock with a one-year vesting period on such date. We made these awards pursuant to the 2013 Plan, and the awards were valued at the closing price of our common stock on the grant date. For the 2018 fiscal year, we expect to grant each non-employee director (other than the Chairman of the Board) $40,000 in restricted stock with a one-year vesting period, and we will award the Chairman of the Board $55,000 in restricted stock with a one-year vesting period.
On June 1, 2017, the company granted the following amounts of restricted stock to each of the Companys then-serving non-employee directors whose service on the Board was continuing beyond the 2017 annual meeting of stockholders (other than Mr. Moseley, as discussed below): Michael K. Kaplan, 33,898 shares; Jonathan R. Phillips, 84,745 shares; Judith E. Starkey, 50,847 shares; and Michael G. Valentine, 50,847 shares. These amounts include shares of restricted stock that certain directors agreed to accept in lieu of cash for all or a portion of their annual retainers.
We believe that awarding restricted stock to directors is a necessary component of their total compensation, including their retainer fees, and aligns their interests with those of our stockholders. Our Compensation Committee and board of directors have allowed a limited exception to this policy in connection with Mr. Moseleys service as a director on our board to account for limitations on his ability to accept compensation for service as a director and in recognition that a grant of restricted stock to Noro-Moseley would not satisfy the intent of the boards policy. For so long as Mr. Moseley remains a director on our board, we will pay the $60,000 cash equivalent value to Noro-Moseley instead of issuing restricted stock.
Mr. Sides, as our President and Chief Executive Officer, was not separately compensated for his service on our board of directors. See the Summary Compensation Table under Executive CompensationSummary Compensation for information relating to the compensation paid to Mr. Sides. As a principal of Noro-Moseley, Mr. Moseley is not permitted to accept personal compensation for service on boards of directors of companies in which Noro-Moseley invests. Therefore, the fees relating to Mr. Moseleys service as a director are paid directly to Noro-Moseley. Retainer fees relating to Mr. Kaplans service as a director are paid on his behalf to his company, Altos Health Management. Retainer fees relating to Mr. Lucas service as a director will be paid on his behalf to Harbert Discovery Fund GP, LLC.

(4) Mr. Lucas was elected to the board of directors on January 18, 2018, and agreed to waive any fees relating to his service as a director in fiscal 2017.
(5) This director elected to receive the annual retainer in the form of restricted stock.
(6) As described above, Mr. Moseley is not permitted to accept personal compensation for service on our board. A total of $60,000 was paid to Noro-Moseley Partners VI, LP relating to his service as a director in fiscal 2017.
We also have entered into indemnification agreements with Messrs. Kaplan, Moseley, Phillips, Sides, Valentine, and Ms. Starkey. Each indemnification agreement provides that we will indemnify the covered individual to the full extent permitted by Delaware law. The indemnification agreement also requires that we maintain directors and officers liability insurance coverage substantially equivalent to our current coverage, provided that the costs of maintaining such insurance does not become substantially disproportionate to the coverage obtained and that such insurance is reasonably available to us. We also provide liability insurance for our directors and officers.
Item 12. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management, and Related Shareholder Matters
Equity Compensation Plan Information
We maintain the 2013 Plan, pursuant to which we may grant awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted awards, performance awards, phantom stock awards and other stock-based awards. We also maintain the ESPP, which allows employees to purchase the companys common stock at an approximate 15% discount to the market price.

Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC, which deem a person to beneficially own any shares the person has or shares voting or dispositive power over and any additional shares obtainable within 60 days through the conversion of preferred stock or the exercise of options or other purchase rights. Shares of common stock subject to preferred stock that is currently convertible or convertible within 60 days of May 1, 2018 and options or other rights to purchase that are currently exercisable or are exercisable within 60 days of May 1, 2018 (including shares subject to restrictions that lapse within 60 days of May 1, 2018) are deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of the person holding such preferred stock, options or other rights, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Unless otherwise indicated, each person possesses sole voting and investment power with respect to the shares identified as beneficially owned. The percentages are based on 20,034,446 shares of common stock outstanding as of May 1, 2018. An asterisk indicates beneficial ownership of less than 1% of the common stock outstanding.
