In addition, pursuant to the anti-dilution terms of the Series B and Series D Preferred, which shares were held by certain of the Golsen Holders, the conversion ratio of the Series B Preferred increased to 43.3333 to 1 from 33.3333 to 1 and the Series D Preferred increased to 0.325 to 1 from 0.25 to 1. See Note 12 for the discussion regarding the conversion of the Series B and Series D Preferred into our common stock and the payment of the accumulated dividends on these securities. As of December 31, 2021, we have three separate outstanding financing arrangements by an affiliate of LSB Funding as discussed in footnotes (C), (D) and (E) of Note 7. In addition, an affiliate of LSB Funding held $50 million of our Old Notes, which Old Notes were redeemed with the proceeds from the New Notes as discussed in footnote (B) of Note 7. An affiliate of LSB Funding holds $30 million of the New Notes. Pursuant to the terms of the Board Representation and Standstill Agreement, as amended, our Board includes two directors that are employees of affiliates of LSB Funding. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, we incurred director fees associated with these directors totaling approximately $0.3 million for each respective year. During 2021, 2020 and 2019, we incurred director fees associated with Barry H. Golsen totaling approximately $0.1 million for each respective year. As the result of J. Golsen informing the Board of his election to retire as Executive Chairman effective December 31, 2017, we determined not to extend the employment agreement with J. Golsen beyond its then current term that expired on December 31, 2017 (the “Retirement Date”) and, in accordance with the terms his employment agreement, delivered a notice of non-renewal to J. Golsen. Following the Retirement Date, J. Golsen serves as Chairman Emeritus of our Board. During 2017, we entered into a transition agreement (the “Transition Agreement”) with J. Golsen that commenced on January 1, 2018 and ends upon the earlier of his death or a change in control as defined in the agreement. During the term, J. Golsen will receive an annual cash retainer of $480,000 and an additional monthly amount of $4,400 to cover certain expenses. In accordance with the terms of the Transition Agreement, we will also reimburse J. Golsen for his cost of certain medical insurance coverage until his death. Effective as of the Retirement Date, the severance agreement that was in force with J. Golsen was terminated. In consideration for his services, including as Chairman Emeritus, we will pay J. Golsen a one-time payment equal to $2,320,000 upon the consummation of a change in control, as defined in the agreement, should one occur prior to his death.
