Departure of Director
On April 15, 2022, Ms. Brittain Ezzes resigned as a director of FTAC Hera Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”). Ms. Ezzes’ decision to resign was not the result of any dispute or disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operation, policies (including accounting or financial policies) or practices.
Appointment of Director
On the same date, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of the Company appointed Ms. Laura Kohn to serve as a director of the Company effective immediately. Ms. Kohn will serve on the Audit Committee of the Board, which committee will be comprised entirely of independent directors. Ms. Kohn will be entitled to receive the same compensation for service as an independent director as is currently provided to the other independent directors serving on the Board.
The Board determined that Ms. Kohn is an “independent director” as defined by Rule 10A-3 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and by the Nasdaq Stock Market rules. There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Kohn and any other person pursuant to which she was selected as a director, nor are there any transactions, or proposed transactions, to which the Company was or is to be a party and in which Ms. Kohn had or will have a direct or indirect material interest that are required to be disclosed under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, nor are there any family relationships among Ms. Kohn and any other directors or officers of the Company.
