Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers

Discretionary 2015 Annual Incentive Bonus

At a meeting of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”) of VirnetX Holding Corporation (the “Company”) held on January 4, 2016, the Compensation Committee reviewed the Company’s performance in 2015 and the contributions that Kendall Larsen, the Company's Chief Executive Officer, President and Chairman, and Richard Nance, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, made to such performance.  Following this review, the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion in determining to pay Mr. Larsen 75% of his 2015 target bonus and to pay Mr. Nance 75% of his 2015 target bonus, in light of the Company’s overall performance for the year and their respective contributions in achieving this performance.  The 2015 target bonus for each of Messrs. Larsen and Nance previously approved by the Compensation Committee was equal to 50% of Mr. Larsen’s and Mr. Nance’s respective base salary.   Accordingly, the Compensation Committee determined to award Mr. Larsen a cash bonus for 2015 equal to $206,342 and Mr. Nance a cash bonus for 2015 equal to $26,545.
