Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On February 23, 2019, the Company appointed Scott Canute, a member of the Companys Board of Directors (the Board), as the Companys Executive Director. On March 5, 2019, upon recommendation of the Compensation Committee of the Board, the Board approved that Mr. Canute will be paid $16,667 per month for his service as Executive Director and was granted a nonqualified stock option to purchase 79,818 shares of the Companys common stock (the Initial Canute Compensation). On March 8, 2019, the Compensation Committee of the Board determined that in order to reflect the scope of his role and the significant time that Mr. Canute will be devoting to his role as Executive Director, Mr. Canutes cash compensation shall be increased to $21,372 per month and Mr. Canute was granted an additional nonqualified stock option to purchase 22,854 shares of the Companys common stock (the Revised Canute Compensation). The options have a seven-year term and an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Companys common stock based on the closing price of the Companys common stock on each date of grant and will be subject to the terms of a nonqualified stock option agreement (the Canute NQSO Agreement). Such options will vest in full upon the Companys receipt of approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for the Companys Biologics License Application for sacituzumab govitecan for the treatment of patients with metastatic triple-negative breast cancer who have received at least two prior therapies for metastatic disease under the Prescription Drug User Fee Act.
On March 7, 2019, the Company and Mr. Canute entered into a letter agreement (the Canute Letter Agreement) to memorialize his appointment as the Companys Executive Director and the Initial Canute Compensation. The Canute Letter Agreement may be terminated by either party at any time upon written notice to the other party. The Company and Mr. Canute anticipate entering into an amendment to the Canute Letter Agreement to set forth the terms of the Revised Canute Compensation (the Canute Agreement Amendment).
The Company expects to file the form of Canute NQSO Agreement, the Canute Letter Agreement and the Canute Agreement Amendment as exhibits to its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019. The foregoing descriptions are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of the form of Canute NQSO Agreement, the Canute Letter Agreement and the Canute Agreement Amendment when filed.
