Corporate Governance

Board Composition and Independence

Our Board of Directors currently consists of seven members. Our Board of Directors has undertaken a review of the independence of our directors and has determined that all directors, except Werner Cautreels, Iain Dukes, and Nikolay Savchuk., are independent within the meaning of Section 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). Our Tenth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides that our Board of Directors will consist of not less than three nor more than 11 directors, as such number of directors may from time to time be fixed by our Board of Directors. Each director shall be elected to the Board of Directors to hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders and until his or her successor is elected and qualified.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our Board of Directors recognizes the time, effort and energy that the chief executive officer is required to devote to his position in the current business environment, as well as the commitment required to serve as our chairman, particularly as the Board of Directors’ oversight responsibilities continue to grow. We believe that, at present, separating these positions allows our chief executive officer to focus on our day-to-day business, while allowing our chairman to lead the Board of Directors in its fundamental role of providing advice to, and independent oversight of, management. Our Board of Directors also believes that this structure ensures a greater role for the independent directors in the oversight of our company and active participation of the independent directors in setting agendas and establishing priorities and procedures for the work of our Board of Directors.

While our bylaws do not require that our chairman and chief executive officer positions be separate, our Board of Directors believes that having separate positions is the appropriate leadership structure for us at this time and demonstrates our commitment to good corporate governance.

Risk is inherent with every business, and how well a business manages risk can ultimately determine its success. We face a number of risks, including but not limited to risks relating to limited cash resources, need to raise additional funds, product candidate development, technological uncertainty, dependence on collaborative partners and other third parties, uncertainty regarding patents and proprietary rights, comprehensive government regulations, having no commercial manufacturing experience, marketing or sales capability or experience and dependence on key personnel. Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks we face, while our Board of Directors, as a whole and through its committees, has responsibility for the oversight of risk management. In its risk oversight role, our Board of Directors has the responsibility to satisfy itself that the risk management processes designed and implemented by management are adequate and functioning as designed. The Board of Directors periodically consults with management regarding the Company’s risks.

Our Board of Directors is actively involved in oversight of risks that could affect us. This oversight is conducted primarily through the audit committee of our Board of Directors, but the full Board of Directors has retained responsibility for general oversight of risks.

Board Committees

Our Board of Directors has established three standing committees: the audit committee, the compensation committee and the nominating and corporate governance committee. The current members of our audit committee are James J. Marino, Trafford Clarke and Jack E. Stover, with Jack E. Stover serving as chairperson. The current members of our compensation committee are M. Teresa Shoemaker, James J. Marino and Jack E. Stover with M. Teresa Shoemaker serving as chairperson. The current members of our nominating and corporate governance committee are James J. Marino, M. Teresa Shoemaker and Trafford Clarke, with James J. Marino serving as chairperson.

Our Board of Directors has determined that James J. Marino, Trafford Clarke and Jack E. Stover meet the additional test for independence for audit committee members imposed by Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulations and Section 5605(c)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules and that M. Teresa Shoemaker, James J. Marino and Jack E. Stover meet the additional test for independence for compensation committee members imposed by Section 5605(d)(2)(A) of the NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules.

Audit Committee

The primary purpose of our audit committee is to assist the Board of Directors in the oversight of the integrity of our accounting and financial reporting process, the audits of our consolidated financial statements, and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Our audit committee met four times during fiscal year 2023. The functions of our audit committee include, among other things:

With respect to reviewing and approving related-party transactions, our audit committee reviews related-party transactions for potential conflicts of interests or other improprieties. Under SEC rules, as a smaller reporting company, related-party transactions are those transactions to which we are or may be a party in which the amount involved exceeds the lesser of $120,000 or 1% of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years, and in which any of our directors or executive officers or any other related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, excluding, among other things, compensation arrangements with respect to employment and Board of Directors membership. Our audit committee could approve a related-party transaction if it determines that the transaction is in our best interests. Our directors are required to disclose to this committee or the full Board of Directors any potential conflict of interest, or personal interest in a transaction that our Board of Directors is considering. Our executive officers are required to disclose any related-party transaction to the audit committee. We also poll our directors on an annual basis with respect to related-party transactions and their service as an officer or director of other entities. Any director involved in a related-party transaction that is being reviewed or approved must recuse himself or herself from participation in any related deliberation or decision. Whenever possible, the transaction should be approved in advance and if not approved in advance, must be submitted for ratification as promptly as practical.

The financial literacy requirements of the SEC require that each member of our audit committee be able to read and understand fundamental financial statements. In addition, at least one member of our audit committee must qualify as an audit committee financial expert, as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act, and have financial sophistication in accordance with the NASDAQ Stock Market listing rules. Our Board of Directors has determined that Jack E. Stover qualifies as an audit committee financial expert.

Both our independent registered public accounting firm and management periodically will meet privately with our audit committee.

The Board of Directors has adopted a charter for the audit committee, which is available in the corporate governance section of our website at http://www.trawspharma.com.

Compensation Committee

The primary purpose of our compensation committee is to assist our Board of Directors in exercising its responsibilities relating to compensation of our executive officers and employees and to administer our equity compensation and other benefit plans. In carrying out these responsibilities, this committee reviews all components of executive officer and employee compensation for consistency with its compensation philosophy, as in effect from time to time. Our compensation committee met seven times during fiscal 2023. The functions of our compensation committee include, among other things:

The Board of Directors has adopted a charter for the compensation committee, which is available in the corporate governance section of our website at http://www.trawspharma.com.

The compensation committee has utilized Radford ("Radford"), an Aon Hewitt company, as its executive compensation consultant. Radford reports directly to the compensation committee. The compensation committee may replace Radford or hire additional consultants at any time. Upon request by the compensation committee or its chair, a representative of Radford attends meetings of the compensation committee and is available to discuss compensation issues in between meetings.

In connection with its work for the compensation committee, Radford provided various executive compensation services to the compensation committee pursuant to a written consulting agreement. Generally, these services included advising the compensation committee on the principal aspects of our executive compensation program and evolving industry practices and providing market information and analysis regarding the competitiveness of our program design and our award values in relation to performance.

The compensation committee retains sole authority to hire any compensation consultant, approve such consultant’s compensation, determine the nature and scope of its services, evaluate its performance, and terminate its engagement. We assessed the independence of Radford pursuant to SEC rules and determined that no known conflict of interest existed that would prevent Radford from serving as an independent consultant to the compensation committee.

The compensation committee has reviewed our compensation policies and practices for all employees, including our named executive officers, as they relate to risk management practices and risk-taking incentives, and has determined that there are no risks arising from these policies and practices that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The primary purpose of our nominating and corporate governance committee is to assist our Board of Directors in promoting the best interest of our company and our stockholders through the implementation of sound corporate governance principles and practices. Our nominating and corporate governance committee met one time during fiscal 2023. The functions of our nominating and corporate governance committee include, among other things:

The Board of Directors has adopted a charter for the nominating and corporate governance committee, which is available in the corporate governance section of our website at http://www.trawspharma.com.

Code of Conduct for Employees, Executive Officers and Directors

We have adopted a code of conduct applicable to all of our employees, executive officers and directors. The code of conduct is available in the corporate governance section of our website at http://www.trawspharma.com.

The audit committee of our Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the code of conduct and must approve any waivers of the code of conduct for employees, executive officers or directors.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

The Board of Directors held six meetings during fiscal 2023. During fiscal 2023, each director attended at least 75 percent of the aggregate of the total number of meetings of the Board of Directors and the committees on which such director served.

Directors are encouraged, but not required, to attend the annual meeting of stockholders. All seven of our directors attended the 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

The process followed by our nominating and corporate governance committee to identify and evaluate director candidates includes requests to members of our Board of Directors and others for recommendations, meetings from time to time to evaluate biographical information and background material relating to potential candidates and interviews of selected candidates by members of the nominating and corporate governance committee and the Board of Directors.

In determining whether to recommend any particular candidate for inclusion in the Board of Directors’ slate of recommended director nominees, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers the composition of the Board of Directors with respect to depth of experience, balance of professional interests, required expertise and other factors. The nominating and corporate governance committee considers the value of diversity when recommending candidates. The committee views diversity broadly to include diversity of experience, skills and viewpoint. The nominating and corporate governance committee does not assign specific weights to particular criteria and no particular criterion is a prerequisite for each prospective nominee. Our Board of Directors believe that the backgrounds and qualifications of its directors, considered as a group, should provide a composite mix of experience, knowledge and abilities that will allow it to fulfill its responsibilities.

Stockholders may recommend individuals to our nominating and corporate governance committee for consideration as potential director candidates. The nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate stockholder-recommended candidates by following the same process and applying the same criteria as it follows for candidates submitted by others.

Stockholders may directly nominate a person for election to our Board of Directors by complying with the procedures set forth in Section 2.2(A) of our bylaws, and with the rules and regulations of the SEC. Under our bylaws, only persons nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in the bylaws will be eligible to serve as directors. In order to nominate a candidate for service as a director, you must be a stockholder at the time you give the Board of Directors notice of your nomination, and you must be entitled to vote for the election of directors at the meeting at which your nominee will be considered. In addition, the stockholder must have given timely notice in writing to our Secretary. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the Secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the 90th day, nor earlier than the 120th day, prior to the first anniversary of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders (provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or 60 days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder must be delivered no earlier than the 120th day prior to the annual meeting and no later than the later of the 90th day prior to such annual meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made by us). Your notice must set forth (i) the name, age, business address and, if known, residence address of the nominee, (ii) the principal occupation or employment of the nominee, (iii) the class and number of shares of stock of the Company directly or indirectly, owned beneficially or of record by the nominee, (iv) a description of all arrangements or understandings between you and the nominee and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nomination is to be made by you, and (v) all other information relating to the nominee that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for the election of directors in an election contest, or is otherwise required, in each case, pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. Nominations for director must be accompanied by the nominee’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected.

ITEM 11. EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

Overview of Executive Compensation

The compensation committee of our Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing the compensation of all of our executive officers. In this capacity, our compensation committee annually reviews and approves the compensation of our chief executive officer and other executive officers, including such goals and objectives relevant to the executive officers’ compensation that the committee, in its discretion, determines are appropriate, evaluates their performance in light of those goals and objectives, and sets their compensation based on this evaluation.

2023 Summary Compensation Table

The following table sets forth information for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 concerning compensation of our principal executive officer and the two most highly compensated executive officers during 2023. We refer to these three executive officers as our "named executive officers."

Employment Agreements

We have entered into employment agreements with each of our named executive officers, and the compensation of our named executive officers is determined, in large part, by the terms of those employment agreements. Following are descriptions of the material terms of each named executive officer’s employment agreement.

Steven M. Fruchtman, M.D.

We entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Fruchtman on June 19, 2018, which was amended effective March 18, 2021 (the “Fruchtman Employment Agreement”). The Fruchtman Employment Agreement continues indefinitely, unless terminated in accordance with the terms set forth therein.

The Fruchtman Employment Agreement provides for an initial base salary of $510,000, subject to adjustment upon annual review. Subject to the compensation committee’s sole discretion, Dr. Fruchtman is eligible for an annual bonus, of up to 50% of such base salary (i.e., target bonus) and an annual option grant, in each case, based on the performance of Dr. Fruchtman and the Company. The annual bonus may be paid in the form of cash, stock options, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our compensation committee’s discretion.

Dr. Fruchtman is entitled to participate in all of our employee benefit plans and programs that are made generally available from time to time to our executive officers and is entitled to up to four weeks of vacation each year. The Fruchtman Employment Agreement contains non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment provisions that, among other things, prevent him from competing with us during the term of his employment and for a specified time thereafter. The Company will reimburse Dr. Fruchtman for reasonable business expenses, including certain travel and cell phone expenses.

If Dr. Fruchtman’s employment is terminated for any reason , we will pay to Dr. Fruchtman or his spouse or estate, as applicable, the balance of his accrued and unpaid salary, unreimbursed expenses, and unused accrued vacation time through the termination date.

If Dr. Fruchtman’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by Dr. Fruchtman for “good reason,” other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Dr. Fruchtman will be entitled to receive the sum of (x) his current base salary and (ii) target bonus, payable in installments over 12 months. If the termination is during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Dr. Fruchtman will be entitled to receive one and one-half times the sum of (i) his current base salary and (ii) target bonus, payable in a lump sum. The Company will also reimburse Dr. Fruchtman for the employer’s portion of his medical insurance costs under COBRA for 12 months if Dr. Fruchtman’s termination occurs other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company or for 18 months if Dr. Fruchtman’s termination occurs during the 12 month-period following a change in control of the Company. In addition, all of Dr. Fruchtman’s stock options that are unvested as of the date of such termination will fully vest as of the date of termination and any accrued, approved and unpaid annual bonus for the year prior to the termination date will be paid. As a condition to receive the forgoing severance benefits, Dr. Fruchtman must deliver to the Company an effective release and waiver of claims and continue to comply with the non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment covenants set forth in the Fruchtman Employment Agreement.

Mark P. Guerin

We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Guerin on July 1, 2015, which was amended on June 10, 2022 (the “Guerin Employment Agreement”). The Guerin Employment Agreement continues indefinitely, unless terminated in accordance with the terms set forth therein.

The Guerin Employment Agreement provides for an initial base salary of $475,000. Subject to the compensation committee’s sole discretion, Mr. Guerin is eligible for an annual bonus, of up to 25% of such base salary (i.e., target bonus), based on the performance of Mr. Guerin and the Company. The annual bonus may be paid in the form of cash, stock options, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our compensation committee’s discretion.

Mr. Guerin is entitled to participate in all of our employee benefit plans and programs that are made generally available from time to time to our executive officers and is entitled to up to four weeks of vacation each year. The Guerin Employment Agreement contains non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment provisions that, among other things, prevent him from competing with us during the term of his employment and for a specified time thereafter. The Company will also reimburse Mr. Guerin for reasonable business expenses.

If Mr. Guerin’s employment is terminated for any reason, we will pay to Mr. Guerin or his spouse or estate, as applicable, the balance of his accrued and unpaid salary, unreimbursed expenses, and unused accrued vacation time through the termination date.

If Mr. Guerin’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by Mr. Guerin for “good reason,” other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Guerin will be entitled to receive nine-twelfths of the sum of (x) his current base salary and (y) target bonus, payable in installments over nine months. If the termination is during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Mr. Guerin will be entitled to receive the sum of (i) his current base salary and (ii) target bonus, payable in a lump sum. The Company will also reimburse Mr. Guerin for the employer’s portion of his medical insurance costs under COBRA for nine months if Mr. Guerin’s termination occurs other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company or for 12 months if Mr. Guerin’s termination occurs during the 12-month-period following a change in control of the Company. In addition, all of Mr. Guerin’s stock options that are unvested as of the date of such termination will fully vest as of the date of termination and any accrued, approved and unpaid annual bonus for the year prior to the termination date will be paid. As a condition to receive the forgoing severance benefits, Mr. Guerin must deliver to the Company an effective release and waiver of claims and continue to comply with the non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment covenants set forth in the Guerin Employment Agreement.

Victor Moyo, M.D.

We entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Moyo on October 2, 2023 (the “Moyo Employment Agreement”). The Moyo Employment Agreement continues indefinitely, unless terminated in accordance with the terms of the Moyo Employment Agreement.

The Moyo Employment Agreement provides for an initial base salary of $450,000. Subject to the compensation committee’s sole discretion, Dr. Moyo is eligible for an annual bonus, of up to 40% of such base salary (i.e., target bonus). The annual bonus may be paid in the form of cash, stock options, shares of our common stock, or a combination thereof, at our compensation committee’s discretion. Additionally, Dr. Moyo received a sign-on bonus of $75,000 to be paid as a forgivable loan and treated as compensation on the date of payment. The sign-on bonus must be repaid if Dr. Moyo voluntarily resigns or is terminated for cause from his position as Chief Medical Officer before October 2, 2024. The Moyo Employment Agreement also provides for a nonqualified stock option to purchase 125,000 shares, which will vest over four years from the grant date.

Dr. Moyo is entitled to participate in all of our employee benefit plans and programs that are made generally available from time to time to our executive officers and is entitled to vacation benefits. Dr. Moyo’s employment agreement contains non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment provisions that, among other things, prevented him from competing with us during the term of his employment and for a specified time thereafter.

The Moyo Employment Agreement provides that if Dr. Moyo’s employment is terminated for any reason, we shall pay to Dr. Moyo or his spouse or estate, as applicable, the balance of his accrued and unpaid salary, unreimbursed expenses, and unused accrued vacation time through the termination date.

If, following October 2, 2024, Dr. Moyo’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by Dr. Moyo for “good reason,” other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Dr. Moyo will be entitled to receive nine-twelfths of the sum of (x) his current base salary and (y) target bonus, payable in installments over nine months. If the termination is during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company, Dr. Moyo will be entitled to receive the sum of (i) his current base salary and (ii) target bonus, payable in a lump sum. The Company will also reimburse Dr. Moyo for the employer’s portion of his medical insurance costs under COBRA for nine months if Dr. Moyo’s termination occurs other than during the 12-month period following a change in control of the Company or for 12 months if Dr. Moyo’s termination occurs during the 12-month-period following a change in control of the Company. In addition, all of Dr. Moyo’s stock options that are unvested as of the date of such termination will fully vest as of the date of termination and any accrued, approved and unpaid annual bonus for the year prior to the termination date will be paid. As a condition to receive the forgoing severance benefits, Dr. Moyo must deliver to the Company an effective release and waiver of claims and continue to comply with the non-solicitation, non-competition, confidentiality and inventions assignment covenants set forth in the Moyo Employment Agreement.

On April 12, 2024, Dr. Moyo entered into a new employment agreement in connection with his new title of Chief Medical Officer- Oncology, which included substantially similar terms to the Moyo Employment Agreement, except that the Dr. Moyo is immediately eligible for the severance benefits specified under the Moyo Employment Agreement, regardless of when Dr. Moyo’s employment is terminated by us without “cause” or by Dr. Moyo for “good reason,” and he is not required to repay the sign-on bonus in the event of a termination of employment by the Company for “cause” or by Dr. Moyo without “good reason” prior to October 2, 2024.

Director Compensation

The following table summarizes compensation paid to our non-employee directors in fiscal 2023.

In June 2013, our Board of Directors approved a non-employee director compensation policy, which became effective for all non-employee directors in July 2013. In June 2018, the Board of Directors revised the policy to change the retainer amounts and the number of options members of our Board of Directors would receive, based on a benchmarking study comparing our director compensation to a group of comparable peer companies. In accordance with this policy, each non-employee director receives an annual base retainer of $40,000. In addition, our non-employee directors receive the following cash compensation for board services, as applicable:

All amounts are paid in quarterly installments.

All of our directors were eligible to receive additional discretionary awards under the Onconova 2021 Plan, subject to the annual limit set forth in the Onconova 2021 Plan.

We reimburse each non-employee director for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attending our Board of Directors and committee meetings. Compensation for our directors, including cash and equity compensation, is determined, and remains subject to adjustment, by our Board of Directors.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table summarizes the total number of outstanding awards and shares available for other future issuances of options under all of our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2023. All of the outstanding awards listed below were granted under our 2013 Equity Compensation Plan, 2018 Plan, the Onconova 2021 Plan and the 2021 Plan.

PRINCIPAL STOCKHOLDERS

The following table sets forth certain information regarding the beneficial ownership of common stock as of April 15, 2024 by (a) each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding shares of our common stock, (b) each of our named executive officers identified under the heading, “2023 Summary Compensation Table”, (c) each of our directors, and (d) all of our executive officers and directors as a group.

The percentage of common stock outstanding is based on 25,301,009 shares of common stock outstanding on April 15, 2024. For purposes of the table below, and in accordance with the rules of the SEC, we deem shares of common stock subject to warrants and options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within sixty days of April 15, 2024 to be outstanding and to be beneficially owned by the person holding the warrants and options for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person, but we do not treat them as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. The Series C Preferred Stock is non-voting and non-convertible until stockholder approval is obtained. Due to these conversion limitations on the Series C Preferred Stock, shares of underlying Common Stock have been excluded from beneficial ownership set forth below. Except as otherwise noted, each of the persons or entities in this table has sole voting and investing power with respect to all of the shares of common stock beneficially owned by him, her or it, subject to community property laws, where applicable. Except as otherwise noted below, the street address of each beneficial owner is c/o Traws Pharma, Inc., 12 Penns Trail, Newtown, PA 18940.
