(d) Appointment of New Director
Through action taken by Unanimous Written Consent, effective January 2, 2026, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of The Oncology Institute, Inc. (the “Company”) filled a vacancy on the Board by appointing Mark D. Stolper to the Board. After conducting appropriate due diligence, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board determined that Mr. Stolper was a qualified candidate who meets the independence requirements under Nasdaq listing rules and has the expertise to contribute effectively to the Board. In connection with his appointment, the Board has appointed Mr. Stolper to the Audit Committee where he will serve as the Audit Committee Chairman and has been designated the Audit Committee financial expert. Mr. Stolper’s term as a director will expire at the Company’s next annual meeting of stockholders, at which time it is expected that he will be nominated as part of management’s slate of director nominees.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Stolper and any other person pursuant to which he was selected or appointed a director, nor are there any transactions between Mr. Stolper and the Company that would be reportable under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).
Mr. Stolper will participate in the Company's non-employee director compensation program. A complete description of the Company's non-employee director compensation program is set forth in the Company's proxy statement for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2025 (“2024 Director Compensation”). In line with this non-employee director compensation program, he will receive $75,000 per annum, paid quarterly, and will be granted restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) for service on the Board and as Audit Committee Chairman, which grant will be made at a later date.
