Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), particularly in the sections captioned “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are based on our management’s beliefs and assumptions and on information currently available to our management. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to significant risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified and some of which are beyond our control. All statements other than present and historical facts and conditions contained in this Report, including statements regarding our future revenues, our ongoing clinical trial and other results of operations and financial position, business strategy, plans and our objectives for future operations, are forward-looking statements. In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “can,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “objective,” “ongoing,” “plan,” “potential,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “in the future” or the negative of these terms or other comparable terminology. Actual events or results may differ from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, and these differences may be significant and adverse. Forward-looking statements include statements regarding, and important factors that could cause actual outcomes to differ materially from those stated or implied in the forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, the matters summarized below:

 

  the sufficiency of our existing cash, cash equivalents, and investments to fund our future operating expenses and capital expenditure requirements, and statements regarding our ability to continue as a going concern despite our current findings to the contrary;
     
  our estimates regarding future revenue, expenses, anticipated capital requirements to fund our future operating expenses, and our need for additional financing;

  projections for the timing for enrollment of our clinical trials and our expectations relating to the timing of the provision of updates on, public announcements (if any) for interim or top line data from, and completion of our clinical trials (notably our ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial);
     
  our continued reliance on third parties to conduct clinical trials of our product candidates and for the manufacture of our product candidates;
     
  the beneficial characteristics, safety, efficacy, and therapeutic effects of our technology, devices and product candidates;
     
  our ability to advance product candidates into and successfully complete clinical trials;
     
  our ability to further develop and expand our therapy platform, both to use different chemotherapeutic agents, to include new indications, or to market our catheter on a standalone basis;
     
  our ability to obtain and maintain regulatory approval of our product candidates and the timing or likelihood of regulatory filings and approvals, including our expectation to seek special designations, such as orphan drug designation, for our product candidates for various diseases;
     
  existing regulations and regulatory developments in the United States and other jurisdictions;

 

 

 

  our plans relating to commercializing our product candidates, if approved, including the geographic areas of focus and our potential and ability to successfully commercialize our product candidates and generate revenue;

We have based the forward-looking statements contained in this Report primarily on our current expectations and projections about future events and trends that we believe may affect our business, financial condition, results of operations, prospects, business strategy and financial needs. The outcome of the events described in these forward-looking statements is subject to significant risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors described in the section titled “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Report, in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 and our other SEC filings and public statements. These risks are not exhaustive. Other sections of this Report include additional factors that could adversely affect our business and financial performance. Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all risks and uncertainties that could have an impact on the forward-looking statements contained in this Report. We cannot assure you that the results, events and circumstances reflected in the forward-looking statements will be achieved or occur, and actual results, events or circumstances could differ materially from those described in the forward-looking statements. In light of the significant uncertainties in these forward-looking statements, you should not regard these statements as a representation or warranty by us or any other person that we will achieve our objectives and plans in any specified time frame or at all.

 

In addition, statements that “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based upon information available to us as of the date of this Report, and while we believe such information forms a reasonable basis for such statements, such information may be limited or incomplete, and our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or review of, all potentially available relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely upon these statements.

 

The forward-looking statements made in this Report relate only to events as of the date on which such statements are made. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statements after the date of this Report or to conform such statements to actual results or revised expectations, except as required by law.

1. Business and Principal Activities

 

Description of Business

 

RenovoRx, Inc. (the “Company”) was incorporated in the state of Delaware in December 2012 and operates from its headquarters in Mountain View, California. The Company is a commercial and clinical stage life sciences company offering RenovoCath®, a novel, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) cleared local drug delivery device, targeting high unmet medical needs with a present focus on difficult to treat cancers.

 

The Company’s clinical stage lead product candidate is a novel drug-device combination product consisting of intra-arterial delivery of the chemotherapy gemcitabine via RenovoCath which the Company refers to as “IAG.” IAG is currently the subject of a Phase III clinical study for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (“LAPC”).

 

The Company is also commercializing RenovoCath as a standalone device for use by interventional radiologists, oncologists, and other medical professionals who can use the device to treat patients within its FDA-cleared fields of use. RenovoCath is indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion.

 

RenovoCath utilizes the patented Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (“TAMP™”) therapy platform, which is designed to ensure targeted therapeutic delivery across the arterial wall near the tumor site to bathe the target tumor, while potentially minimizing a therapy’s toxicities versus systemic intravenous therapy, including chemotherapy. The Company’s novel approach to targeted treatment offers the potential for increased safety, tolerance, and improved efficacy. The Company holds a robust portfolio of 19 issued patents and 11 pending patents covering our TAMP technology.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

From the Company’s inception through September 30, 2025, it has raised an aggregate of $71.4 million, primarily from private placements of convertible preferred stock, convertible debt securities, the issuance of securities in the Company’s August 2021 initial public offering (the “IPO”), registered and unregistered sales of common stock and common stock warrants and the exercise of common stock warrants and common stock options. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, placement agent fees and other offering expenses, the Company’s net proceeds raised since inception were $64.3 million. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $10.0 million. As used herein, the term “common stock” refers to the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

 

The Company has incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since its inception. At September 30, 2025, the Company had an accumulated deficit of approximately $58.4 million. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, the Company reported a net loss of $8.2 million. The Company does not expect to generate positive cash flows from operations unless and until its commercialization activities for RenovoCath as a standalone device (which activities remain in the relatively early stages) generate sufficient revenues. The Company expects to continue to incur significant losses until regulatory approval is granted for its first drug-device combination product candidate, IAG, or until revenues from RenovoCath commercialization increase substantially. Regulatory approval is not guaranteed and may never be obtained, and the Company’s plans to grow RenovoCath revenue may not be achieved at levels anticipated, or at all. The Company may also pursue other revenue-generating strategies such as licensing or collaboration agreements. No assurances can be made that the Company will pursue these strategies, and even if it does, there is a risk that the Company will be unable to generate revenue from such activities.

 

The Company believes it will be able to raise additional capital through debt financings, private or public equity financings, license agreements, collaborative agreements or other arrangements with other companies, or other sources of financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available or will be at terms acceptable to the Company. The inability to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on the Company’s liquidity, financial condition and its ability to pursue its business strategy. The Company will need to generate significant revenue to achieve profitability, and it may never do so.

 

In November 2022, the Company filed an omnibus shelf registration, statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-268302) that provides for the aggregate registered offerings of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s securities subject to various limitations, including limited sales in any twelve-month period while the Company is subject to the “baby-shelf” rules. The Company plans to file for a new omnibus shelf registration in light of the November 21, 2025 expiration of the current shelf registration statement. Such filing will extend the effectiveness of the old shelf registration for an additional 180 days from November 21, 2025. The Company also plans to use its shelf registration statement to establish a customary “at the market” offering program. The Company’s existing shelf registration statement and planned new shelf registration statement are collectively referred to herein as the “Shelf Registration Statement”.

The Company also has filed an effective registration statement on Form S-1 registering the cash exercise of the Company’s outstanding IPO, underwriter and private warrants. Cash exercise of these outstanding warrants is only expected to occur (if at all) when the trading price of the common stock is in excess of the $10.80 per share exercise price of such outstanding warrants.

 

On April 3, 2023, the Company completed a registered direct offering (“RDO”) utilizing its Shelf Registration Statement for the purchase and sale of 1,557,632 shares of common stock (or pre-funded common stock warrants) to a certain institutional investor. In a concurrent private placement, the Company issued to the investor unregistered common warrants to purchase up to 1,947,040 shares of common stock (the “April 2023 Warrant”). The aggregate gross proceeds from this offering were $5.0 million, and the net offering proceeds were $4.3 million after deducting placement agent fees and placement agent’s expenses of $0.4 million and other professional expenses of $0.3 million.

 

On January 26, 2024, the Company completed a private placement to 92 accredited investors with gross proceeds of $6.1 million before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses of approximately $0.7 million. In this private placement, the Company issued 6,133,414 shares of its common stock and common warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 6,133,414 shares of common stock, which expire five years from the issuance date, or January 26, 2029. In connection with such private placement, the Company entered into a placement agent agreement as additional compensation to the placement agent, and issued common warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 511,940 shares of common stock, which warrants expire five years from the issuance date. The significant majority of the warrants issued in this private placement have an exercise price of $0.99 per share. The warrants purchased by directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company in this private placement have an exercise price of $1.22 per share.

 

On April 11, 2024, the Company completed another private placement offering to 172 accredited investors, issuing common stock, pre-funded warrants, Series A warrants, and Series B warrants. The aggregate gross proceeds from this offering were $11.1 million, and the net offering proceeds were $9.6 million after deducting placement agent fees of $1.3 million and other professional expenses of $0.2 million. In conjunction with the issuance of 6,960,864 shares of common stock, the Company bundled the offering with: (i) a pre-funded warrant exercisable for 951,500 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share, with an unlimited term and immediate exercisability upon issuance, subject to specific beneficial ownership limitations; (ii) Series A warrants exercisable for 7,912,364 shares of common stock at $1.22 per share, valid for five years and immediately exercisable subject to customary adjustments and beneficial ownership limitations; (iii) Series B warrants exercisable for 3,956,182 shares of common stock at $1.22 per share, valid for two years and immediately exercisable subject to customary adjustments and beneficial ownership limitations, with the Company retaining the right to call these warrants under certain conditions. Additionally, as compensation to the placement agent, the Company issued warrants on the same date, to purchase up to an aggregate of 701,243 shares of common stock (the “April 2024 PA Warrants”) at $1.69 per share over a 5five-year term, with provisions for cashless exercise if the shares are unregistered or no current prospectus is available for resale. The April 2024 PA Warrants become exercisable on October 11, 2024, subject to specific beneficial ownership limitations and customary adjustments.

 

On February 10, 2025, the Company closed an underwritten public offering of common stock, utilizing its Shelf Registration Statement (the “February 2025 Offering”) and received gross proceeds of approximately $12.1 million. The net proceeds were $10.8 million after deducting underwriting fees of $0.8 million and other professional expenses of $0.5 million. The Company issued an aggregate 11,523,810 shares of its common stock in this offering and issued to the underwriters of this offering underwriter warrants to purchase 576,191 shares of common stock at $1.21 per share over a 5five-year term.

 

The accompanying condensed interim financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern. However, the Company has reviewed the relevant conditions and events surrounding its ability to continue as a going concern including, among others: historical losses, projected future results, negative cash flows from operations, including cash requirements for the upcoming year, funding capacity, net working capital, total stockholders’ equity and future access to capital. Based upon this review and the Company’s current financial condition and operating plans, the Company has concluded that its current cash and cash equivalents will not be sufficient to fund its operations through at least the next 12 months from the issuance of this Report.

 

As a result, and assuming that commercial sales of RenovoCath do not increase significantly during 2026, the Company will require additional funding to support its continuing operations. Until such time, if ever, as the Company can generate product revenue through its commercialization efforts, the Company expects to finance its cash needs through private or public equity financings, debt financings and collaborations, licenses or other similar arrangements.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

 

Basis of Presentation and Unaudited Condensed Interim Financial Information

 

The accompanying unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. As permitted under those rules and regulations, certain footnotes or other financial information normally included in unaudited condensed interim financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted. The unaudited condensed interim financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal, recurring adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results for the interim periods presented. The condensed balance sheet as of December 31, 2024, is derived from the Company’s audited financial statements. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025, or for any other future annual or interim period. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and as amended by Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

 

There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies during the nine months ended September 30, 2025 from those previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024 filed with the SEC on April 1, 2025, other than the accounting policies adopted in connection with the Company’s February 2025 Offering, as well as the inventory policy, as described below.

 

February 2025 Offering

 

The Company evaluated the underwriter warrants Common issued in connection with the February 2025 Offering in accordance with ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity and ASC 815-40, Derivatives and Hedging – Contracts in Entity’s Own Entity and concluded that the underwriter warrants are freestanding financial instruments, meeting ASC Topic 480’s criteria for legal detachment and separate exercisability from the common stock. The underwriter warrants are classified as equity, not liabilities, as they do not embody obligations for cash settlement or issuance of variable shares. The initial recognition involves recording proceeds in Additional Paid-In Capital (“APIC”) with issuance costs as contra-equity. For diluted Earnings Per Share (“EPS”), the treasury stock method applies, as the underwriter warrants are dilutive but not participating securities before exercise, ensuring no impact on basic EPS until shares are issued.

 

Inventories

 

Inventories consist of RenovoCath devices which are finished goods held for sale manufactured under contract by the Company’s third-party RenovoCath manufacturer. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, and are determined using the specific identification method. Net realizable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less reasonably predictable costs of completion, disposal, and transportation. The Company periodically reviews its inventory to identify obsolete, slow-moving, or otherwise unsalable inventories based on ongoing assessments of market conditions, technological advancements, and historical sales patterns, and establishes allowances for situations in which the cost of the inventory is not expected to be recovered. Such impairment charges, if any, are recorded in cost of goods sold, on the statements of operations.

 

Risks and Uncertainties

 

The Company and its business are subject to a number of significant risks associated with clinical-stage and early commercial stage life science companies, including the risks associated with (i) its relatively early stage commercialization efforts for RenovoCath, (ii) the development of IAG or other product candidates that must receive regulatory approval before market launch, (iii) possible failure of current or future preclinical studies or clinical trials, (iv) dependence on key third parties such as device manufacturers and providers of clinical trial administration services; (v) the need to obtain and maintain insurance coding for its products and product candidates, (vi) dependence on key officer and employees, (vii) competition from larger and more established companies, (viii) obtaining and maintaining intellectual property protections, (ix) changes in the Company’s technology or industry, (x) volatility in the public capital markets, (xi) the Company’s ability to obtain adequate financing when needed to support the Company’s business plan, (xii) the ability to attract and retain additional qualified personnel to manage the anticipated growth of the Company and (xiii) general economic and political conditions.

 

Use of Estimates

 

The preparation of condensed interim financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenue, income and expenses as well as the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed interim financial statements during the reporting periods. In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, management has made its best estimates and judgments of certain amounts included in the condensed interim financial statements. Significant estimates and assumptions made in the accompanying condensed interim financial statements include, but are not limited to, accruals of certain liabilities, including clinical trial accruals and other contingences, the valuation of financial instruments, the fair value of the Company’s common stock and the fair value of options granted under the Company’s equity incentive plan. On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates its estimates, including those related to the fair values of assets, stock-based compensation, clinical trial accruals and other contingencies. Management bases its estimates on historical experience or on various other assumptions that it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates.

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

 

The Company is an emerging growth company as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”) and may take advantage of reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable to public companies. Section 107 of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from complying with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies are required to comply with those standards. The Company has elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards. The Company expects to lose its status as an emerging growth company status as of December 31, 2026, the last day of the fiscal year following the fifth anniversary of closing its August 2021 initial public offering.

 

The Company is also a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act. If the Company is a smaller reporting company at the time the Company ceases to be an emerging growth company, the Company may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company, the Company may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K and, like emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

 

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard-setting bodies and adopted by the Company as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on the Company’s financial position or results of operations upon adoption.

 

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

 

In December 2023, FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (ASU 2023-09). ASU 2023-09 modifies the rules on income tax disclosures to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures, particularly in the rate reconciliation table and disclosures about income taxes paid. The amendments are intended to address investors’ requests for income tax disclosures that provide more information to help them better understand an entity’s exposure to potential changes in tax laws and the ensuing risks and opportunities and to assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions. The guidance also eliminates certain existing disclosure requirements related to uncertain tax positions and unrecognized deferred tax liabilities. The guidance is effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2025. All entities should apply the guidance prospectively but have the option to apply it retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the timing of adoption and the potential impacts of ASU 2023-09 on the condensed interim financial statements and related disclosures.

 

In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, Income Statement - Reporting Comprehensive Income - Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40) (ASU 2024-03). ASU 2024-03 modifies the rules on income statement disclosures to enhance the transparency of and include more detailed information about the types of expenses, including purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation, amortization, and depletion, in commonly presented expense captions such as cost of sales, research and development, and selling, general and administrative expenses. The amendments are intended to address investors’ requests for income statement expense disclosures that provide more information to help them better understand the components of an entity’s expenses, make their own judgments about the entity’s performance, and more accurately forecast expenses, and enable investors to better assess an entity’s prospects for future cash flows. It will also provide contextual information for an entity’s presentation and consideration of management’s discussion and analysis of financial position and results of operations. The guidance is effective for all entities for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026. All entities should apply the guidance prospectively but have the option to apply it retrospectively. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is continuing to assess the timing of adoption and the potential impacts of ASU 2024-03 on the condensed interim financial statements and related disclosures.

 

The Company continues to monitor new accounting pronouncements issued by the FASB and does not believe any accounting pronouncements issued through the date of this report will have a material impact on the Company’s condensed interim financial statements.

3. Fair Value Measurements

 

As of September 30, 2025, and December 31, 2024, the Company held cash equivalents of $9.6 million and $7.0 million, respectively, in a money market account.

 

The following tables summarize the Company’s financial assets and liabilities, measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy (in thousands):

 Schedule of Financial Assets and Liabilities at Fair Value on Recurring Basis

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the periods presented. The Company had no other financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

Common Stock Warrants Liability, Changes on Level 3 Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

 

The following table reflects the change in the Company’s Level 3 common stock warrant liability for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 (in thousands):

 Schedule of Level 3 Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis

         
Fair value as of December 31, 2024   $ 1,519  
Change in fair value     (409 )
Fair value as of September 30, 2025   $ 1,110  

 

The Company remeasures the fair value of its common stock warrant liability at each reporting date. The fair value of the common stock warrants was determined using a probability weighted scenario method with a Monte Carlo simulation and Black-Scholes model. The scenario-based method estimates the fair value of the Company’s common stock warrants by considering various outcomes as assessed by the Company. Quantitative elements associated with the inputs impacting the fair value measurement of the common stock warrants include the underlying fair value of common stock, timing of the expected scenarios, risk-free rate, and volatility of the Company’s shares. The risk-free rate is determined by reference to the U.S. Treasury yield curve for the respective time periods based on the remaining contractual term of the warrants. The volatility is based on the historical volatility of the Company’s stock. The Monte Carlo simulation projects the Company’s volume weighted average stock price based on the various fundamental transaction scenarios considered and utilizes a Black-Scholes model to value the warrants within these scenarios.

There were no transfers between Level 1, Level 2 or Level 3 during the periods presented. The Company had no other financial assets or liabilities that were required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

 

4. Inventory

 

Inventory of $272,000 as of September 30, 2025, nil at December 31, 2024, consists of RenovoCath finished goods manufactured under contract by the Company’s third-party RenovoCath manufacturer. Inventory expected to be sold more than twelve months from the balance sheet date is classified as inventory, non-current on the condensed balance sheets. Given the early stages of the Company’s commercialization strategy, there were no reserves for inventory, and no inventory was classified as non-current as of September 30, 2025.

 

5. Property and Equipment, Net

 

Property and equipment, net are as follows (in thousands):

Depreciation is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The useful life for furniture and equipment is seven years.

 

Depreciation expense was less than $1,000 and nil for the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. Depreciation expense was approximately $2,000 and nil for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

7. Leases, Commitments and Contingencies

 

Operating Leases

 

In October 2024, the Company entered into a 36-month non-cancelable operating lease, commencing on December 1, 2024, for approximately 1,900 rentable square feet of office space in Mountain View, California. The lease has a one-time option to renew the term for an extension period of 36 months. The office space lease has a remaining lease term of approximately two years. The option to renew the term was not included for purposes of determining the right-of-use asset and associated lease liabilities as the Company determined that the renewal of the lease is not reasonably certain so only the original lease term was taken into consideration. The accounting lease commencement in accordance with ASC Topic 842, Leases, occurred on December 1, 2024, and the Company recorded a total associated right-of-use asset and corresponding lease liability of $285,000.

 

Classification of the Company’s operating lease on the condensed balance sheets are as follows (in thousands):

 Schedule of Operating Leases

   

September 30,

2025

   

December 31,

2024

 
Assets                
Right-of-use operating asset   $ 213     $ 278

Operating lease liability – current   $ 102     $ 66  
                 
Operating lease liability – noncurrent     134       212  
Total liability   $ 236     $ 278  

 

The current portion of operating lease liability of $102,000 and $66,000 as of September 30, 2025 and December 31, 2024, respectively, is included within accrued expense on the condensed balance sheet, see “Note 6 Accrued Expenses” in Notes to Condensed Interim Financial Statements.

 

Lease expense and cash paid by lease type that was recognized during the three months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024 are as follows (in thousands):

 Schedule of Lease expense

    2025     2024     2025     2024  
    Three Months Ended     Nine Months Ended  
    September 30,     September 30,  
    2025     2024     2025     2024  
Operating lease   $ 27     $ -     $ 81     $ -  
Short-term lease     -       21       -       62  
Total lease expense   $ 27     $ 21     $ 81     $ 62  

 

For three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, short-term leases of $21,000 and $62,000, respectively, were month-to-month lease arrangements where the Company recognized the lease payments as an expense in the period in which the obligation for those payments incurred. The Company made an election policy not to apply the recognition requirements under ASC Topic 842, Leases, for month-to-month lease agreements.

 

The minimum lease payments are expected to be as follows for the years ending December 31, (in thousands):

 Schedule of Lease Payments

         
Remainder of 2025   $ 29  
2026     118  
2027     111  
Total lease payments   $ 258  
Less imputed interest     (22 )
Present value of operating lease liability   $ 236  

 

The interest rate implicit in lease contracts is typically not readily determinable and as such, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate of 7.75% based on the information available at the lease commencement date, which represents an internally developed rate that would be incurred to borrow, on a collateralized basis, over a similar term, an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. As of September 30, 2025, the Company had a remaining lease term of 2.17 years.

Commercial Supply Agreement

 

The Company entered into a Supply Agreement with Medical Murray, Inc., the Company’s primary third-party RenovoCath manufacturer, with an effective date of June 5, 2025. Under the supply agreement, the Company has agreed to purchase certain minimum order quantities of the Company’s RenovoCath device, based on issued purchase orders modified for limited cancellations or delays as provided in the supply agreement. Beginning with the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company recognizes the release of RenovoCath devices from Medical Murray as finished goods and records as inventory.

 

The supply agreement has an initial three-year term, with an automatic one-year renewal unless either party provides written notice of termination at least 30 days prior to the expiration date. The supply agreement may be terminated by either party in the event of a force majeure, bankruptcy or insolvency of the other party, and uncured material breach. The Company may terminate the supply agreement if RenovoCath is withdrawn or suspended by a government authority. In addition, either party may terminate for convenience with one-year written notice. In the event of early termination, the Company is obligated to pay the shortfall commitment as of the date of termination.

 

As of September 30, 2025, the value of the Company’s outstanding non-cancellable purchase commitments associated with the supply agreement is approximately $0.7 million. Approximately $0.2 million in payments were made under the supply agreement during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, the Company may become involved in legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company was not subject to any material legal proceedings during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and no material legal proceedings are subsequently outstanding or pending.

 

Guarantees and Indemnification

 

In the ordinary course of business, the Company enters into agreements that may include indemnification provisions. As permitted under Delaware law and in accordance with its bylaws, the Company indemnifies its officers and directors for certain events or occurrences while the officer or director is or was serving in such capacity. The Company is also party to indemnification agreements with its officers and directors. In some cases, the indemnification will continue after the termination of the agreement. The maximum potential amount of future payments that the Company could be required to make under these provisions is not determinable. The Company has never incurred material costs to defend lawsuits or settle claims related to these indemnification provisions. The Company is not currently aware of any indemnification claims. Accordingly, the Company had not recorded any liabilities for these indemnification rights and agreements as of September 30, 2025.

 

8. Warrants

 

In connection with the Company’s February 2025 Offering, the Company issued to the underwriter warrants to purchase up to 576,191 shares of common at $1.21 per share over a 5 five-year term. All such warrants expire on February 10, 2030.

On July 19, 2021, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) adopted the RenovoRx, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”). The 2021 Plan, which became effective immediately prior to the closing of the IPO, initially reserved 2,185,832 shares of common stock, which included 10,832 shares of common shares reserved but unissued under the Amended and Restated 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2013 Plan”). The Company’s 2013 Plan was terminated immediately prior to the closing of the IPO; however, shares subject to awards granted under the 2013 Plan continued to be governed by the 2013 Plan. In accordance with the terms of the 2021 Plan, on January 1, 2025, the number of shares reserved and available for issuance increased by 721,040 shares.

 

On April 29, 2025, the Board approved the following amendments to the 2021 Plan to be adopted at the Annual Shareholders’ Meeting, (i) the addition of 913,794 shares of common stock to the total number of shares of common stock available under the 2021 Plan and (ii) an increase in in the 2021 Plan’s evergreen provision to increase the size of the 2021 Plan each year from three percent of shares outstanding on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year to five percent. The amendments to the 2021 Plan were adopted at the Annual Shareholder’ Meeting on June 24, 2025.

As of September 30, 2025, there was $1.9 million of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to options granted but not yet amortized, which will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.73 years.

 

For the nine months ended September 30, 2025 and 2024, the Company utilized the Black-Scholes option-pricing model for estimating the fair value of the stock option granted and records compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the vesting period of the awards. The Company estimated the fair value of each option grant on the grant date using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:

 Summary of Weighted-Average Assumptions Used to Calculate Fair Value of Stock Options Granted

      Nine Months Ended September 30,  
      2025       2024  
Expected volatility     115.07%-121.3 %     123.76% – 143.10 %

In June 2025, the Board approved the issuance of 36,000 shares of restricted stock to an entity as consideration for a commercial contract vesting monthly over a one-year period. The shares were issued outside the 2021 Plan and the Company recognized approximately $14,000 and $16,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the restricted stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025.

 

In March 2025, the Board approved the issuance of 30,000 shares of restricted stock to an entity as consideration for a commercial contract, vested immediately, in a private placement. The shares were issued outside the 2021 Plan and the Company recognized $31,000 of stock-based compensation expense for the restricted stock.

10. Income Taxes

 

The Company had no income tax expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024. The Company’s effective income tax rate was 0% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025. During the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company had a net operating loss (“NOL”) for each period that generated deferred tax assets for NOL carryforwards. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the financial statements and income tax carrying values using tax rates in effect for the years such differences are expected to reverse. Due to uncertainties surrounding our ability to generate future taxable income and consequently realize such deferred income tax assets, the Company has determined that it is more likely than not that these deferred tax assets will not be realized. Accordingly, the Company has established a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets as of September 30, 2025.

 

The Company’s policy is to recognize any interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as a component of income tax expense. For the nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company had no accrued interest or penalties related to uncertain tax positions.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, the Company had a net loss and, as such, all outstanding shares of potentially dilutive securities were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share as the inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

 

Potentially dilutive securities not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share because to do so would be antidilutive are as follows (in common stock equivalent shares):

12. Segment Information

 

Operating segments are defined as components of an entity for which separate financial information is available and that is regularly reviewed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), who, for these purposes, is the Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The Company operates as a 1 single reporting segment, focused on developing novel targeted oncology therapies and offering RenovoCath delivery system as stand-alone device targeting high unmet medical needs. The Company’s measure of segment profit or loss is net loss. The CODM is the CEO. The CODM manages and allocates resources to the operations of the Company on a total company basis. Managing and allocating resources on a company basis enables the CEO to assess the overall level of resources available and how to best deploy these resources across functions, clinical, manufacturing and research and development projects that are in line with the Company’s long-term company-wide strategic goals. Consistent with this decision-making process, the CEO uses financial information for purposes of evaluating performance, forecasting future period financial results, allocating resources and setting incentive targets. Operating expenses are used to monitor budget versus actual results. The CODM also uses net loss in competitive analysis by benchmarking to the Company’s peer group. The competitive analysis along with the monitoring of budgeted versus actual results are used in assessing performance of the segment. All the Company’s assets are held in the United States and all the Company’s revenues are derived from the United States.

As used herein, the term “common stock” refers to our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. In addition, capitalized terms used but not defined in the below discussion shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the footnotes to the accompanying condensed interim financial statements.

 

Overview

 

We are a commercial and clinical stage life sciences company offering RenovoCath®, a novel, U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”)-cleared local drug delivery device, targeting high unmet medical needs, with a present focus on difficult to treat cancers. Our mission is to integrate our approach for therapeutic drug-delivery into the standard of care and ultimately improve patient outcomes by offering a more targeted and tolerable treatment option.

 

Our clinical stage lead product candidate is a novel drug-device combination product consisting of intra-arterial delivery of the chemotherapy gemcitabine via RenovoCath — we refer to our lead product candidate herein as “IAG.” IAG is currently the subject of a Phase III clinical study (called the TIGeR-PaC study) for the treatment of locally advanced pancreatic cancer (“LAPC”).

 

At the same time, we are commercializing RenovoCath for standalone use by interventional radiologists, oncologists, and other medical professionals who can use the device to treat patients within its FDA-cleared fields of use.

 

Our RenovoCath device utilizes our patented Trans-Arterial Micro-Perfusion (“TAMP™”) therapy platform, which is designed to ensure targeted therapeutic delivery across the arterial wall near the tumor site to bathe the target tumor. By localizing and targeting delivery of therapeutic agents via the peripheral vascular system, TAMP is designed to optimize drug concentration where it is needed. This targeted approach is designed to minimize systemic exposure and toxicities related to chemotherapy and addresses the longstanding challenge in cancer care of poor blood supply to tumor sites. Our novel approach to targeted treatment offers the potential for increased safety, tolerance, and improved efficacy. RenovoCath is indicated for temporary vessel occlusion in applications including arteriography, preoperative occlusion, and chemotherapeutic drug infusion. We hold a robust portfolio of 19 issued patents and 12 pending patents covering our TAMP technology.

 

The early signs of clinical adoption of RenovoCath are promising. We are seeing interest and adoption from academic medical centers, NCI-designated cancer centers, and large community hospitals. Importantly, physicians who have used TAMP, enabled by RenovoCath, are treating additional patients, validating the utility and safety of our technology.

 

Commercialization of RenovoCath

 

For the past several years, we have focused our efforts on progressing IAG through clinical trials. However, based on organic demand from doctors in the field who have become familiar with our technology, in 2024 we made the decision to launch an effort to commercialize our RenovoCath delivery device as a standalone device within its FDA cleared uses. Commenced in the field in the fourth quarter of 2024, this commercial effort has already begun to achieve positive results, including our first commercial sales revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024. To accommodate increased need for RenovoCath supply, we expanded our relationship with our U.S.-based, primary third-party RenovoCath manufacturer, Medical Murray, Inc.

 

Since launching commercial sales less than a year ago in the fourth quarter of 2024, and without a dedicated sales and marketing team, we have expanded from five centers approved to purchase RenovoCath at the start of 2025 to fourteen leading cancer centers now. Five of these centers have already used the device in patients and made repeat orders, demonstrating both demand and customer satisfaction. Physician feedback continues to underscore, what we view, are the benefits of the targeted drug-delivery that can be achieved with TAMP, including reducing systemic chemotherapy toxicity and improving patient quality of life.

 

As of September 30, 2025, and through the first nine months of 2025, RenovoCath sales totaled approximately $900,000, and we expect that revenue generated from sales of RenovoCath will increase over time.

 

With our small team, we have established a geographically diverse network of clinical institutions using and interested in the TAMP technology, enabled by RenovoCath, spanning throughout the United States. This network represents not only leading academic institutions and NCI-designated cancer centers, but also high-volume community hospitals, giving us confidence in the potential for deep market penetration of our technology. Our focus remains on strategic, data-driven expansion, ensuring each new center is well supported through onboarding, training, and case follow-up. We are also seeing growing physician-to-physician advocacy, one of the strongest indicators of adoption in interventional oncology.

 

To support and expand our commercial efforts, in August 2025, we announced the hiring of Philip Stocton as Senior Director of Sales and Market Development. Mr. Stocton brings more than 25 years of MedTech leadership, including a decade focused on interventional oncology. His expertise will be invaluable as we broaden our footprint across the U.S., while maintaining a lean operating structure. In alignment with our existing budget, we have added two additional regional sales managers and plan to add a marketing director by the end of 2025 to drive physician engagement.

 

We continue to gather important data about our market (such as sales cycles, activation times, individual customer preferences and other commercial matters), as we seek to grow our customer base, fulfill repeat RenovoCath orders and position ourselves for commercial growth over the long term. We plan on applying these learnings into 2026.

 

We are experiencing repeat orders and use with RenovoCath, as well as an expansion of interest among a growing number of approved centers with increasing market awareness and interest across oncology disciplines. As we refine and grow our efforts with a small but dedicated and experienced sales and marketing team, we continue to expect our revenues to grow during 2026 and beyond.

 

We are encouraged by our early adoption curve and believe our commercial growth strategy positions us for long-term success. Our vision is for RenovoCath to address a large unmet need in oncology. Based on our internal assumptions, we continue to estimate that the initial peak U.S. market opportunity of RenovoCath as a standalone device is approximately $400 million annually, and ultimately, a several-billion-dollar opportunity as we expand into other tumor types.

Readers are advised that our RenovoCath commercialization efforts are new and have experienced fluctuations in revenue, and we may not be able to achieve revenue growth for a variety of reasons. Thus, our efforts remain focused on the longer term. Moreover, revenue recognition under generally accepted accounting principles requires subjective judgments to be made by our management and could otherwise be complex and create uncertainties, including uncertainties arising from varying terms of sale we may offer to different customers. We may also be required to defer recognition of revenues until certain conditions are met. See “Components of Our Results of Operations – Revenue” below for further information.

 

Our Ongoing Pivotal Phase III Trial for IAG

 

In parallel to our RenovoCath commercialization efforts, our ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial to investigate IAG for the treatment of LAPC continues to progress, with enrollment expected to be completed in early 2026 and final data anticipated in 2027. TIGeR-PaC is the cornerstone of our clinical development program, validating our mechanism of action and safety profile through rigorous, long-term evaluation. This trial is being conducted under a U.S. Investigational New Drug (“IND”) application that is regulated by the FDA’s 21 CFR 312 pathway. IAG has received Orphan Drug Designation for pancreatic cancer and bile duct cancer, which provides 7 years of market exclusivity upon approval by the FDA.

 

The current protocol and statistical analysis plan for the Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial requires 114 randomized patients, with 86 events (namely, patient deaths) necessary to complete the final analysis.

 

The 52nd event in the TIGeR-PaC trial occurred during the second quarter of 2025, triggering the pre-planned second interim analysis and review by the independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) for the trial, which took place in August 2025. The role of the DMC is to independently review the trial data and make recommendations to our company, mainly whether the data support, from a third-party point of view, continuing the trial to completion.

 

In August of 2025, we reported that the TIGeR-PaC independent DMC completed their review of our second interim analysis and recommended that we continue with the trial. We believe the independent DMC’s recommendation is an expression of confidence in the potential for a positive outcome in the trial overall. The second interim review of data reinforces that the trial should proceed as planned to the final analysis as we seek to potentially demonstrate the safety and superiority of intra-arterial gemcitabine delivered via RenovoCath for the treatment of LAPC as compared to intravenous chemotherapy, the current standard of care. With a view towards preserving the integrity of the TIGeR-PaC trial for FDA purposes, and following our review of general FDA guidance, discussions with the independent DMC, and consultation with our regulatory advisors, we have decided to defer publishing the detailed data from the second interim analysis. We will revisit publishing the actual second interim data, most likely upon completion of the study as is common for pivotal Phase III trials.

 

Recently we strengthened our Scientific Advisory Board to now include recognized surgeon and pancreatic cancer expert, Dr. Timothy Donahue, and internationally renowned interventional oncologist, Dr. Thierry de Baère. Dr. Donahue is Director of UCLA’s Agi Hirshberg Center for Pancreatic Diseases and as Chief of the Division of Surgical Oncology at the David Geffen School of Medicine. He also is the Garry Shandling Chair in Pancreatic Surgery. Professor de Baère is Head of the Interventional Radiology at both Gustave Roussy Cancer Centre and University Paris-Saclay in France.

 

We may also evaluate the safety of RenovoCath for the delivery of therapeutic agents as a potential therapy in other indications.

Launch of the RR5 Multi-Center Post-Marketing Registry Study to Evaluate Chemotherapy Delivered by RenovoCath Device to Solid Tumors

 

In July 2025, we launched our RR5 Post-Marketing Registry Study for RenovoCath (NCT06805461) (which we call the RR5 Study). The RR5 Study is progressing well, generating real-world data on the safety and effectiveness of RenovoCath across a range of solid tumors and demonstrates our commitment to advance our future clinical strategy by evaluating potential expansions of the use of RenovoCath for chemotherapy-delivery in additional high-unmet need oncology indications beyond LAPC.

 

A registry study, sometimes called a post-approval study, is a type of clinical study that involves collecting data on the long-term use and performance of a medical device, in this case RenovoCath, after it has been cleared for market by the FDA. These trials can serve as a critical tool for understanding a product’s safety and effectiveness in a real-world setting and can provide valuable insights into long-term effectiveness, patient outcomes, and additional safety information that may emerge years after implantation or extended use.

 

The RR5 Study is a registry study designed to evaluate long-term safety and survival outcomes for patients diagnosed with solid tumors that are treated using the RenovoCath device for targeted chemotherapy delivery.

 

The RR5 Study aims to enroll adult patients who have been diagnosed with solid tumors and treated using the RenovoCath device. The registry study will capture real-world data on the utilization of RenovoCath and generate additional safety information across a broader range of solid tumors. Additionally, this data is expected to be used to inform future clinical trial designs.

 

In September 2025, we reported that the first patient procedure in the RR5 Study had taken place at the University of Vermont Cancer Center was completed, and Baptist Health Miami Cancer Institute and the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center had joined the registry study as additional sites.

 

In addition, we continue to advance investigator-initiated trials in borderline resectable and oligometastatic pancreatic cancer. These studies are designed to be cost-neutral to our company while providing meaningful data that may further broaden the application of our TAMP therapy platform.

 

Cash Resources, History of Losses and Planned Activities

 

We have incurred significant operating losses and generated negative cash flows from operations since our inception. As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $10.0 million. We reported net losses of $2.9 million and $8.2 million for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, respectively. As of September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of $58.4 million. We expect to continue to incur significant expenses, operating losses and negative cash flows while we seek to grow our revenues from RenovoCath commercial sales. Further, we will not generate revenues from IAG sales unless and until we successfully complete development and obtain regulatory approval for IAG or another product candidate. Given economic and market conditions and timing of regulatory approval for IAG, we expect that our expenses will increase in connection with our ongoing commercial, research and development activities, particularly if and when we decide to:

 

  Advance clinical development of IAG and our platform technology by continuing to enroll patients in our ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial, expand our post marketing RR5 Study, and advance IAG through other preclinical and clinical pipeline indication opportunities beyond LAPC;
     
  Make targeted investments we deem necessary to expand our RenovoCath commercial sales efforts (which we have done in the second half of 2025 as noted above);
     
  Hire additional research, development, sales and marketing, selling, and general and administrative personnel;
     
  Pursue future collaborations, licensing arrangements or other strategic or commercial activities relating to our technology;
     
  Maintain, expand, enforce, defend, and protect our intellectual property portfolio; and
     
  Expand our operational, financial and management systems and increase personnel, including personnel to support our clinical development, manufacturing and commercialization efforts.

 

19

 

In addition to the variables described above, if and when IAG or any of our other potential future product candidates successfully complete development and receive regulatory approval, we will incur substantial additional costs associated with establishing a sales, marketing, medical affairs and distribution infrastructure to commercialize products for which we may obtain marketing approval, regulatory filings, marketing approval, and post-marketing requirements, in addition to other commercial costs. We cannot reasonably estimate these costs at this time.

 

Based on our current plans, our cash on hand is expected to fund both the RenovoCath commercial scale-up and continued progress of our Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial, as well as other activities, into the middle of 2026. Any increase in sales momentum beyond our current expectations could extend this timeline. However, due to our recurring operating losses and the expectation that we will continue to incur net losses in the future, we will be required to raise additional capital to fund our operations through at least the next 12 months from the issuance of this Report, continue the commercialization of RenovoCath and complete the development of and gain regulatory approval for IAG or any other of our future potential product candidates. We have historically financed our operations primarily through private and public sales of our equity (including warrants to purchase common stock). To raise additional capital, we may seek to sell additional equity and/or debt securities, obtain a credit facility or other loan or enter into collaborations, licenses or other similar arrangements, which we may not be able to do on favorable terms, or at all.

 

As we continue to make progress commercially, and as each day we get closer to our final Phase 3 TIGeR-PaC study data readout (anticipated in 2027), we have multiple potential opportunities to strengthen our balance sheet as needed including, but not limited to, debt and/or equity financing (including via our shelf registration statement) as well as our current ongoing licensing and partnerships discussions. All of these financing options should provide our company with the best flexibility as we continue to drive shareholder value. Further, we plan to use our shelf registration statement to establish a customary “at the market” offering program.

 

However, we may not be able to obtain financing on favorable terms when needed, or at all. Our ability to obtain additional financing will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions, fluctuations in interest rates, our operating performance and investor sentiment. If we are unable to raise additional capital when required or on acceptable terms, we may have to significantly delay, scale back or discontinue the development and/or commercialization of our product candidates, restrict or cease our operations or obtain funds by entering into agreements on unfavorable terms. Failure to obtain additional capital on acceptable terms, or at all, would result in a material and adverse impact on our operations.

 

Our condensed interim financial statements as of September 30, 2025 have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern and, despite the Company’s findings to the contrary, do not include any adjustments that may result from the negative outcome of this uncertainty.

 

As a result, we are faced with the risk of requiring significant additional funding to support our continuing operations. Until such time, if ever, as we can generate substantial product revenue, we expect to finance our cash needs through private or public equity financings, debt financings and collaborations, licenses or other similar arrangements. We currently have no credit facility or committed sources of capital. To the extent that we raise additional capital through the future sale of equity or debt, the ownership interests of our stockholders will be diluted, and the terms of these securities may include liquidation or other preferences that adversely affect the rights of our existing common stockholders. If we raise additional funds through the issuance of debt securities, these securities could contain covenants that could restrict our operations. We may require additional capital beyond our currently anticipated amounts and additional capital may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all. If we raise additional funds through collaboration arrangements or other strategic transactions in the future, we may have to relinquish valuable rights to our technologies or future revenue streams or grant licenses on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to raise additional funds through private or public equity financings or debt financings when needed, we may be required to delay, limit, reduce or terminate development or future commercialization efforts, and we may be unable to continue as a going concern. If we are unable to continue as a going concern, we might have to liquidate our assets and the value we receive for our assets in liquidation or dissolution could be significantly lower than the values reflected in our condensed interim financial statements, and our shareholders may lose their entire investment in our common stock.

 

Components of Our Results of Operations

 

Revenue

 

In December of 2024, we began to derive revenue through the sale of our RenovoCath device on a standalone basis directly to end users (i.e., hospitals and cancer treatment centers). We consider customer purchase orders, which in some cases are governed by master sales agreements or standard terms and conditions, to be the contracts with a customer. Our contracts with customers typically contain a single performance obligation, which is the delivery of the RenovoCath device. We recognize revenue from sales of products at the point in time that the customer obtains control, which is typically based upon the terms of delivery. In determining the transaction price, we evaluate whether the price is subject to refund or adjustment to determine the net consideration to which it expects to be entitled. The only type of variable consideration we offer is limited return rights relating primarily to product damage or defects identified upon receipt, and therefore we expect minimal returns. Returns are estimated taking into consideration several factors including these limited product return rights, historical return activity, and other relevant factors. We have not experienced any commercial product returns to date and, accordingly, no allowance for returns was recorded as of September 30, 2025.

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue consist of costs associated with the sales of RenovoCath devices primarily from Medical Murray, Inc. our third-party RenovoCath manufacturer. Prior to the commercialization of RenovoCath, all costs of manufacturing to produce the RenovoCath devices were allocated to our TIGeR-PaC Phase III clinical trial study in prior periods and expensed as research and development. The cost for RenovoCath devices not associated with the TIGeR-PaC study represents primarily third-party manufacturing costs and shipping and handling costs when applicable.

 

Operating Expenses

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses consist of costs related to the research and development of our TAMP technology and our ongoing clinical trial. Clinical trial costs are a significant component of research and development expenses and include costs associated with third-party contractors and consultants. We outsource a substantial portion of our clinical trial activities, utilizing the service of third-party clinical trial sites and several clinical research vendors and consultants to assist us with the execution of our clinical trials. In addition, we have FDA 510(k) clearance for the RenovoCath delivery device, which comprises part of our IAG product candidate. Accordingly, we are able to charge our clinical trial sites for the RenovoCath delivery device. To date, payments from clinical trial sites in consideration for RenovoCath delivery devices have been adequate to cover our direct manufacturing costs. Any payments we receive from clinical trial sites as consideration for use of RenovoCath delivery devices offset our research and development expenses.

 

We expect our research and development expenses to increase for the foreseeable future as we continue the development of our product candidates and enroll subjects in our ongoing Phase III clinical trial, expand our RR5 Study, and pursue regulatory approval of IAG or other product candidates. It is difficult to predict with any certainty the duration and costs of completing our current or future clinical trials of our product candidates or if, when, or to what extent we will achieve regulatory approval. The duration, costs and timing of clinical trials and other development of our product candidates will depend on a variety of factors, including uncertainties in clinical trial enrollment, timing and extent of future clinical trials, development of new product candidates, and significant and changing government regulation. We may never succeed in achieving regulatory approval for any of our product candidates.

 

Our research and development expenses include:

 

  expenses incurred under agreements with clinical trial sites, contract research organizations, and consultants that are involved in conducting our clinical trials;
     
  costs of acquiring and developing clinical trial materials;
     
  personnel costs, including salaries, benefits, bonuses, and stock-based compensation for employees engaged in preclinical and clinical research and development;
     
  costs related to compliance with regulatory requirements;

 

21

 

  third-party vendor costs related to manufacturing materials and testing to develop the next generation of our delivery device, RenovoCath, including additional non-recurring engineering costs;
     
  costs related to preclinical studies and pilot testing;
     
  travel expenses; and
     
  allocated selling, general and administrative expenses which includes facilities and other indirect administrative expenses to support research and development activities.

 

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Costs for certain development activities, such as clinical trials and preclinical studies, are recognized based on evaluation of progress to completion of specific tasks using data such as subject enrollment, clinical site activations or information provided to us by third party vendors.

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of salaries, benefits, and stock-based compensation for personnel in executive, finance, commercial and administrative functions, professional services and associated costs related to accounting, tax, audit, legal, intellectual property and other matters, consulting costs, conferences, travel and allocated expenses for rent, insurance and other general overhead costs. We expect to continue to incur additional expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including costs to comply with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, (“SEC”) and Nasdaq listing standards and increased expenses in the areas of insurance, professional services and investor relations. As a result, we expect our selling, general and administrative expenses to increase in the foreseeable future as we expand our commercialization efforts, due primarily to anticipated hiring of a limited number of additional sales and marketing personnel. Selling, general and administrative expenses are expensed as incurred.

 

Other Income

 

Interest income is earned from cash deposited in our money market account.

 

Change in Fair Value of Warrant Liability

 

Change in fair value of warrant liability represents the gain or loss reported from the change in the fair value of the common stock warrant liability for warrants issued under the registered direct offering. On April 3, 2023, we completed a registered direct offering financing, issuing common shares and common stock warrants. The fair value of the common stock warrant per share was $0.57 and $0.61 on September 30, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The decrease in the fair value of the liability from the prior year was primarily due to the decrease in our stock price combined with a shorter term to expiration.

 

Income Tax Expense

 

We account for income taxes using the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on the estimated future tax effects of differences between the financial statement and income tax basis of existing assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are recorded net and classified as noncurrent on the balance sheets. A valuation allowance is provided against our deferred income tax assets when their realization is more likely than not.

 

We are subject to income taxes in the federal and state jurisdictions. Tax regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to the interpretation of the related tax laws and regulations and require significant judgment to apply. In accordance with the authoritative guidance on accounting for uncertainty in income taxes, we recognize tax liabilities for uncertain tax positions when it is more likely than not that a tax position will not be sustained upon examination and settlement with various taxing authorities. Liabilities for uncertain tax positions are measured based upon the largest amount of benefit that is more-likely-than-not (greater than 50%) of being realized upon settlement. Our policy is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

Revenue

 

We recognized approximately $266,000 of revenue from sales of RenovoCath for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to no revenue for the same period in 2024. The quarter ended September 30, 2025 marked our third consecutive full quarter of revenue generation from RenovoCath sales. We experienced relatively minor fluctuation in sales during the third quarter of 2025 as compared to the second quarter of 2025 given that our commercialization efforts are so new, have been handled by limited staff, and that only a handful of patients can impact revenue at this stage. This was not unexpected, and we continue to expect to grow revenue from RenovoCath over time.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue was approximately $53,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025, compared to no cost of revenue for the same period in 2024. Cost of revenue consists of costs associated with the sales of RenovoCath devices from Medical Murray, our third-party manufacturer.

 

Gross Margin

 

Gross profit was $213,000 for the three months ended September 30, 2025 (resulting in gross profit margin of approximately 80%), compared to no gross profit for the same period in 2024.

 

Prior to the commencement of commercial sales during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, all costs of manufacturing to produce RenovoCath devices were allocated to our TIGeR-PaC clinical trial study in prior periods and expensed as research and development. The cost for RenovoCath devices not associated with the TIGeR-PaC study represents the total costs to manufacture the device based on time and materials to produce the devices from Medical Murray including costs for devices under the commercial supply agreement.

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, and 2024, remaining relatively unchanged. The period-over-period modest increase in research and development expenses is primarily driven by an increase in clinical expenses of $0.2 million and non-recurring engineering costs for the development of our next generation RenovoCath delivery system of $0.1 million to support our commercial effort program. The increase was offset by decreases in personnel expenses and regulatory of $0.2 million and selling, general and administrative expense allocation of approximately $0.1 million each. We expect research and development expenses to increase during 2025 as we continue to develop our next generation for our RenovoCath device, progress our Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial study for IAG and to launch our new RenovoCath Post-Marketing Registry Study called RR5 Study.

 

23

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $1.7 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025 compared to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, an increase of $0.5 million. Professional and consulting expenses increased by $0.2 million compared to the same period last year, primarily due to the implementation of our new enterprise resource planning software and incurred additional outside consultation to advise on adopting policies and controls to remediate the material weakness. Investor and public relations increased by $0.1 million due to an increase in digital marketing expenses including personnel related expenses of $0.1 million and a decrease in selling, general and administrative allocation to research and development of $0.1 million. We anticipate selling, general and administrative expenses to increase during 2025 as we progress with our commercialization activities for our RenovoCath device, due primarily to anticipated hiring of sales and marketing personnel as described above.

 

Other Income, net

 

Other income was approximately $0.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease in other income of approximately $0.1 million compared to other income of $0.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease in other income was primarily due to approximately $0.1 million change in the fair value of the common warrant liability primarily due to an increase in our stock price and shorter term to expiration.

 

Comparison of the Nine Months Ended September 30, 2025 and 2024

 

The following table summarizes the significant components of our results of operations for the periods presented (in thousands, except percentages):

Net loss   $ (8,227 )   $ (5,936 )   $ (2,291 )     (39 )%

 

Revenue

 

We recognized approximately $0.9 million of revenue from sales of RenovoCath for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to no revenue for the same period last year as we launched initial commercial sales activity for RenovoCath during the fourth quarter of 2024. We expect to grow revenue from RenovoCath sales over time as we expand our commercial efforts.

 

Cost of Revenue

 

Cost of revenue was approximately $0.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to no cost of revenue for the same period last year. Cost of revenue consists of costs associated with the sales of RenovoCath devices primarily from Medical Murray, our third-party manufacturer. Prior to the commencement of our RenovoCath commercial sales during the quarter ended December 31, 2024, all costs of manufacturing to produce RenovoCath devices were allocated to our TIGeR-PaC clinical trial study in prior periods and expensed as research and development. The cost for devices not associated with the TIGeR-PaC study represents the total costs to manufacture the device based on time and materials to produce the devices from Medical Murray including costs for devices under the commercial supply agreement.

 

24

 

Research and Development

 

Research and development expenses were approximately $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $4.4 million for the same period last year, an increase of $0.4 million. The period-over-period increase in research and development expenses is primarily due to an increase in non-recurring engineering costs for the development of the next generation of our RenovoCath delivery system by $0.3 million. Clinical increased $0.3 million due to costs associated with our ongoing Phase III clinical trial study TIGeR-PaC and costs for our RR5 Study. Clinical, oncology and interventional radiology conferences and other scientific trade shows activities increased by $0.1 million including the costs of other research activities of $0.1 million. The increases were offset by an increase of payments from clinical trial sites in consideration for RenovoCath delivery devices of $0.2 million and a decrease in selling, general and administration expenses allocated to research and development of $0.2 million. We expect research and development expenses to increase during 2025 as we continue to incur non-recurring engineering activities for the next generation of our RenovoCath device, progress our Phase III TIGeR-PaC clinical trial study for IAG, and to expand our new RR5 Study.

 

Selling, General and Administrative

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses were approximately $4.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, compared to $3.9 million for the same period last year, an increase of approximately $0.9 million. The period-over-period increase in selling, general and administrative expenses is primarily driven by an increase in head count and employee and related benefit costs of $0.2 million, professional and consulting fees of $0.4 million primarily due to the implementation of our new enterprise resource planning software and adopting policies and controls to remediate the material weakness, and an decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses allocated to research and development expenses of $0.2 million compared to the same period last year We anticipate selling, general and administrative expenses to increase during 2025 as we progress and expand our commercialization activities for our RenovoCath delivery system, due primarily to anticipated hiring of sales and marketing personnel.

 

Other Income, net

 

Other income was approximately $0.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, a decrease of approximately $1.6 million compared to approximately $2.4 million for the same period last year. The decrease was primarily due to a $1.7 million decrease in the fair value of the common warrant liability due to an increase in our stock price and shorter term to expiration.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

From our inception through September 30, 2025, we have raised an aggregate of $71.4 million, primarily from private placements of convertible preferred stock, convertible debt securities, the issuance of securities in public and private placement offerings and the exercise of common stock warrants and common stock options. After deducting underwriting discounts and commissions, placement agent fees and other offering expenses, our net proceeds from these offerings were $64.3 million. As of September 30, 2025, we had cash and cash equivalents of approximately $10.0 million. As discussed above under the caption “Cash Resources, History of Losses and Planned Activities”, based on our operational plans, we do not expect that our current cash and cash equivalents as of the date of this Report will be sufficient  to fund our operating, investing and financing needs for at least the next twelve months from the date of this Report. This raises a current substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern.

 

We have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations since our inception. At September 30, 2025, we had an accumulated deficit of approximately $58.4 million. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2025, we reported a net loss of $2.9 million and $8.2 million, respectively. Depending on our commercialization efforts with RenovoCath, we do not expect to generate positive cash flows from operations until we generate sufficient revenues from RenovoCath sales, which we may be unable to achieve. We also expect to incur losses from our clinical activities until regulatory approval is granted for our first product candidate, IAG. Regulatory approval is not guaranteed and may never be obtained. We may also pursue other revenue-generating strategies such as licensing or collaboration agreements or commercializing RenovoCath on a standalone basis. No assurances can be made that we will pursue these strategies, and even if it does, there is a risk that we will be unable to generate revenue from such activities.

 

25

 

We believe we will be able to raise additional required capital when needed through debt financings, private or public equity financings, license agreements, collaborative agreements or other arrangements with other companies, or other sources of financing. There can be no assurance that such financing will be available when needed or will be at terms acceptable to us. The inability to raise capital as and when needed would have a negative impact on our liquidity, financial condition and the ability to pursue our business strategy. We will need to generate significant revenue from commercial sales of RenovoCath or otherwise to achieve positive cash flow or profitability, and we may never do so.

 

Our ability to obtain additional financing we may need in the future will be subject to a number of factors, including market conditions, fluctuations in interest rates, our operating performance and investor sentiment. However, there can be no assurances that such financing will be available or will be at terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to raise capital when needed or on attractive terms, we would be forced to delay, reduce or eliminate our clinical trials, discontinue the development and/or commercialization of our product candidates, restrict or cease our operations or obtain funds by entering into agreements on unfavorable terms. If any of these events occur, our ability to achieve our operational goals would be adversely affected. Our future capital requirements and the adequacy of available funds will depend on many factors, including those described in the section titled “Risk Factors” in this Report and in our 2024 Annual Report. Depending on the severity and direct impact of these factors on us, we may be unable to secure additional financing to meet our operating requirements on commercially acceptable terms favorable to us, or at all.

 

Sources of Liquidity

 

Since our inception, we have been primarily a clinical stage company on our clinical development stage lead product candidate, novel drug-device combination product consists of IAG via RenovoCath for the treatment of LAPC. In 2024, we made the decision to launch an effort to commercialize our RenovoCath device as a standalone product within its FDA-cleared fields of use and upon our initial commercialization launch of RenovoCath, we started to generate revenue in the fourth quarter of 2024. We anticipate continuing to generate revenue from RenovoCath sales and growing such sales over time, which would support our liquidity. However, we have incurred significant operating losses and negative cash flows from operations, and we anticipate that we will continue to incur net losses until our RenovoCath commercial efforts generates meaningful revenues, of which no assurances can be given.

 

Cash Flows

 

Our primary uses of cash are to fund our operations, including research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses. We will continue to incur operating losses in the future and expect that our research and development and selling, general and administrative expenses will continue to increase as we continue our research and development efforts with respect to clinical development of our product candidates, further develop our therapy platform and ensure that we are complying with the requirements of being a public company. The cash used to fund operating expenses is impacted by the timing of when we pay expenses, as reflected in the change in our outstanding accounts payable and accrued expenses.

 

The following table summarizes our cash flows for the periods indicated (in thousands):

 

    Nine Months Ended September 30,  
    2025     2024  
Net cash provided by (used in):                
Operating activities   $ (7,953 )   $ (6,695 )
Investing activities     (2 )     -  
Financing activities     10,845       15,085  
Increase in cash and cash equivalents   $ 2,890     $ 8,390  

 

Net Cash Used in Operating Activities

 

Cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 of $8.0 million reflected a net loss of $8.2 million and a net change in our operating assets and liabilities of $0.4 million, offset by non-cash charges of $0.6 million.

 

Cash used in operating activities of $6.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, reflected a net loss of $5.9 million and non-cash charges of $1.2 million, offset by net change in our operating assets and liabilities of $0.4 million.

 

Cash Used in Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 consisted of $0.2 million for the purchase of property and equipment.

 

Cash Provided by Financing Activities

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2025 was approximately $10.8 million, consisting primarily of net proceeds from the public equity offering.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was $15.1 million, consisting primarily of net proceeds from private placement offerings.

 

26

 

Contractual Obligations and Other Commitments

 

There have been no material changes in our contractual obligations or other commitments since we filed our 2024 Annual Report, other than an increase to certain purchase obligations with our commercial supply agreement of approximately $0.7 million, see Note 7, Leases, Commitments and Contingencies.

 

Critical Accounting Policies and Significant Judgments and Estimates

 

The accompanying management’s discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our unaudited condensed interim financial statements and the related disclosures, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of these unaudited condensed interim financial statements requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments that affect the reported amounts in our unaudited condensed interim financial statements and accompanying notes. We base our estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. To the extent that there are material differences between these estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows will be affected. Our critical accounting policies and estimates are detailed in our 2024 Annual Report.

 

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting policies or significant judgments and estimates for the nine months ended September 30, 2025, from those previously disclosed in our 2024 Annual Report.

 

Convertible Instruments and Embedded Derivatives

 

We evaluate all of our agreements to determine whether such instruments have derivatives or contain features that qualify as embedded derivatives. We account for certain redemption features that are associated with the terms of convertible notes as liabilities at fair value and adjust the instruments to their fair value at the end of each reporting period. For derivative financial instruments that are accounted for as liabilities, the derivative instrument is initially recorded at its fair value and is then re-valued at each reporting date, with changes in the fair value reported in other income (expenses), net in the statements of operations. Derivative instrument liabilities are classified in the balance sheets as current or non-current based on whether or not net-cash settlement of the derivative instrument could be required within 12 months of the balance sheet date.

 

April 2023 Warrants

 

We evaluated pre-funded warrants and the April 2023 Warrant issued in connection with registered direct financing in April 2023 to determine whether such warrants qualify for equity classification, or meet the definition of a derivative instrument, classified as a liability on the condensed balance sheets and measured at fair value at inception and at each reporting date with changes in fair value recognized in the condensed statements of operations in the period of change.

 

Direct Offering Costs

 

Direct offering costs consist principally of commissions, placement fees and legal fees, including other professional expenses incurred. We evaluate the terms under the financing agreement to determine the classification of direct costs in the accompanying condensed statements of operations.

 

Emerging Growth Company and Smaller Reporting Company Status

 

We are an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. Under the JOBS Act, companies have extended transition periods available for complying with new or revised accounting standards. We have elected this exemption to delay adopting new or revised accounting standards. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) December 31, 2026, (2) the last day of the fiscal year in which we have total annual gross revenues of at least $1.235 billion, (3) the date on which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act, or (4) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements and is relieved of certain other significant requirements that are otherwise generally applicable to public companies. As an emerging growth company,

 

  we may present only two years of audited financial statements, plus unaudited interim condensed financial statements for any interim period, and related Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations;

 

27

 

  we may avail ourselves of the exemption from the requirement to obtain an attestation and report from our auditors on the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act;
     
  we may provide reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and
     
  we do not require stockholder non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation or golden parachute arrangements.

 

We have elected to take advantage of certain of the reduced disclosure obligations in this Report on this Form 10-Q and may elect to take advantage of other reduced reporting requirements in future filings. As a result, the information that we provide to our stockholders may be different than what you might receive from other public reporting companies in which you hold equity interests.

 

We are also a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates plus the proposed aggregate amount of gross proceeds to us is less than $700.0 million and our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (1) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250.0 million or (2) our annual revenue is less than $100.0 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700.0 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies. Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K and, like emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

 

Recently Issued and Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

There were no new accounting pronouncements that were issued or became effective since the issuance of our 2024 Annual Report that had, or are expected to have, a material impact on our unaudited condensed balance sheets, unaudited condensed statement of operations or unaudited condensed statement of cash flows.

 

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

 

The disclosures in this Item are not required because we qualify as a smaller reporting company under federal securities laws.

 

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2025. Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer have concluded that, during the period covered by this Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to our previously identified material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting. As a result, we have performed additional analysis as deemed necessary to ensure that our financial statements were prepared in accordance with GAAP. Accordingly, notwithstanding the identified material weaknesses, management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer, believes the condensed interim financial statements included in this Report are fairly presented, in all material respects, in accordance with GAAP.

 

28

 

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in our Exchange Act reports is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated, communicated and discussed with our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Accounting Officer or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can only provide reasonable, not absolute, assurance the desired control objectives will be met. In reaching a reasonable level of assurance, management has weighed the cost of contemplated controls against their intended benefits. The design of any system of controls is based on management’s assumptions about the likelihood of future events. We cannot assure you that our controls will achieve their stated goals under all possible conditions. Changes in future conditions may render our controls inadequate or may cause our degree of compliance with them to deteriorate. Because of the inherent limitations in a cost-effective control system, misstatements due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.

 

Previously Identified Material Weakness

 

As previously disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2024, our management identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting related to our control environment. A material weakness is a deficiency, or combination of significant deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected and corrected on a timely basis.

 

Specifically, we have determined that we have not maintained adequate formal accounting policies, processes and controls related to complex transactions as a result of a lack of finance and accounting staff with the appropriate GAAP technical expertise needed to identify, evaluate and account for complex and non-routine transactions. We have also determined that we have not maintained sufficient staffing or written policies and procedures for accounting and financial reporting, which contributed to the lack of a formalized process or controls for management’s timely review and approval of financial information. More specifically, we have determined that our financial statement close process includes significant control gaps mainly driven by the small size of our accounting and finance staff and, as a result, a significant lack of appropriate segregation of duties. This includes the ability of users to create and post journal entries without adequate compensating review controls as well as review of system rights on the journal entry and financial close process. In addition, we did not have proper information technology general controls related to user access, including the performance of user access reviews, access to edit data in applications was not properly restricted, and formal approval of application access was not documented and retained.

 

The previously identified material weakness has not been remediated but we are in the process of implementing a number of measures to address the material weaknesses that has been identified including: (i) engaging additional accounting and financial reporting personnel with GAAP and SEC reporting experience, (ii) developing, communicating and implementing an accounting policy manual for our accounting and financial reporting personnel for recurring transactions and period-end closing processes, and (iii) establishing effective monitoring and oversight controls for non-recurring and complex transactions to ensure the accuracy and completeness of our financial statements and related disclosures.

 

These additional resources and procedures are designed to enable us to broaden the scope and quality of our internal review of underlying information related to financial reporting and to formalize and enhance our internal control procedures. With the oversight of senior management and our Audit Committee, we have begun taking steps and plan to take additional measures to remediate the underlying causes of the material weaknesses.

 

We intend to complete the implementation of our remediation plan when we have sufficient cash to remediate our material weaknesses. Although we believe that our remediation plan will improve our internal control over financial reporting, additional time may be required to fully implement it and to make conclusions regarding the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. Our management will closely monitor and modify, as appropriate, the remediation plan to eliminate the identified material weaknesses.

 

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

 

Except for the material weaknesses noted above, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting since we filed our 2024 Annual Report.

PART II –OTHER INFORMATION

 

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

 

From time to time, we are engaged in various legal actions, claims and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business, none of which are expected to be material. The Company is not currently engaged in any material legal proceedings.

 

Item 1A. Risk Factors

 

An investment in our securities is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. You should carefully consider the risk factors below, as well as the other information in this Report, including our unaudited interim condensed financial statements and the related notes and the section titled “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” and in our other public filings in evaluating our business, including those risk factors included in our 2024 Annual Report. The occurrence of any of the events or developments described in our 2024 Annual Report, or summarized below or described elsewhere in this Report could harm our business, financial condition, results of operations, growth prospects or stock price. In such an event, the market price of our common stock could decline, and you may lose all or part of your investment. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business operations and the market price of our common stock.

 

Risk Factors Summary

 

The following is a summary of principal factors and uncertainties that make investing in shares of our common stock risky and impact our ability to execute on our business strategy include risks regarding the following. This summary is not exhaustive, and readers are therefore encouraged to review the “Risk Factors” section and the “Risk Factors” section in our 2024 Annual Report in their entirety:

 

  We have no drug/device combination products approved for commercial sale, only limited experience as a company in the commercialization of standalone medical devices, and no operating history as a revenue generating company. These factors make it difficult to evaluate our current business and predict our future success and viability.
     
  We have incurred significant net losses in each period since inception, and we expect to continue to incur net losses until we receive FDA approval for our product candidate or until our commercial strategy for RenovoCath generates sufficient revenues.
     
  We are executing on a commercial strategy for selling our RenovoCath device on a standalone basis, which is a new activity for our company and subject to significant inherent risks. Our revenues from RenovoCath sales may fluctuate over time or may not meet our expectations.
     
  Our estimates of total addressable market, potential revenues and similar metrics related to our commercialization efforts for RenovoCath, as well as our estimates for the timing of completion and data readout from our clinical trials, may prove inaccurate, particularly given that our commercialization efforts are relatively new and are evolving and given the uncertainties associated with clinical trials.
     
  Revenue recognition from our RenovoCath commercialization activities could be complex and uncertain. We may be required to defer recognition of revenues under policies which we develop. Our inability to properly recognize revenue could have a material adverse effect on our estimates of our future revenue performance and on our actual financial results.
     
  Our revenues and results of operations may be difficult to predict and have and may continue to fluctuate from quarter to quarter, which could adversely affect our business and the market price of our common stock.
     
  If the manufacturers upon whom we rely fail to produce RenovoCath or product candidates in the volumes that we require on a timely basis or fail to comply with stringent regulations applicable to life science manufacturers, we may face delays in the development and commercialization of RenovoCath and our product candidates.

 

30

 

  We will need to raise substantial additional capital to both develop and commercialize IAG (assuming FDA approval) and to separately engage in sales and marketing activities for RenovoCath as a standalone device. Our failure to obtain funding when needed may force us to delay, reduce or eliminate our product development programs, commercial efforts or collaboration efforts.
     
  As of the date of this Report, our cash on hand will not be able to fund our planned operations for more the twelve months, and therefore there is a risk that we may be unable to continue as a going concern.
     
  We may consider strategic alternatives in order to maximize stockholder value, including financing, strategic alliances, and licensing arrangements. We may not be able to identify or consummate any suitable strategic alternatives, and any consummated strategic alternatives may not be successful.
     
  Our product candidates’ commercial viability remains subject to current and future preclinical studies, clinical trials (notably our Phase III TIGeR-PaC study), regulatory approvals, and the risks generally inherent in the development of a pharmaceutical product candidate. If we are unable to successfully advance or develop our product candidates, our business will be materially harmed.
     
  As our ongoing Phase III TIGeR-PaC trial is evaluating our most advanced drug-device combination product candidate to date, the failure of the trial to achieve results conducive to progressing the trial or filing and receiving NDA approval could cause our company significant harm.
     
  If we do not achieve our projected development goals in the timeframes we announce and expect, our stock price may decline.
     
  Our product candidates may exhibit undesirable side effects when used alone or in combination with other approved pharmaceutical products or investigational new drugs, which may delay or preclude further development or regulatory approval or limit their use if approved.
     
  If the results of preclinical studies or clinical trials for our product candidates are negative, we could be delayed or precluded from the further development or commercialization of our product candidates, which could materially harm our business.
     
  If we are unable to satisfy regulatory requirements, we may not be able to commercialize our product candidates.
     
  If our product candidates are unable to compete effectively with marketed drugs targeting similar indications as our product candidates, our commercial opportunity will be reduced or eliminated.
     
  We may delay or terminate the development of our product candidates at any time if we believe the perceived market or commercial opportunity does not justify further investment, which could materially harm our business.
     
  Our future success depends on our ability to retain our key personnel and to attract, retain, and motivate qualified personnel, especially in light of an acute workforce shortage and hyper-competitive compensation environment.
     
  If we are unable to protect our intellectual property effectively, we may be unable to prevent third parties from using our technologies, which would impair our competitive advantage.
     
  The patents issued to us may not be broad enough to provide any meaningful protection, one or more of our competitors may develop more effective technologies, designs, or methods without infringing our intellectual property rights and one or more of our competitors may design around our proprietary technologies.

 

31

 

  The market price of our common stock may be volatile and fluctuate substantially, which could result in substantial losses for our investors.
     
  If we fail to maintain compliance with or meet all applicable Nasdaq requirements, we could be delisted from Nasdaq, which would seriously harm the liquidity of our stock and our ability to raise capital.

Exhibit 10.1

 

RENOVORX, INC.

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This Amended and Restated Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between RenovoRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Shaun Bagai (“Executive”), effective as of the Effective Date, as defined in Section 7 below. This Agreement amends and restates the Change in Control and Severance Agreement entered into between the Company and the Executive on November 11, 2021 and amended on August 15, 2023.

 

This Agreement provides certain protections to Executive in connection with an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under the circumstances described in this Agreement, including in connection with a change in control of the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 7 below.

 

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

 

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will continue indefinitely until terminated by written consent of the parties hereto, or if earlier, upon the date that all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

 

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. No payments, benefits, or provisions under this Agreement will confer upon Executive any right to continue Executive’s employment with the Company, nor will they interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or Executive to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

 

3. Severance Benefits.

 

(a) Qualifying Termination Outside of the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs other than during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

 

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive Company-paid group health, dental and vision coverage for Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable (the “COBRA Severance”), following the Qualifying Termination until the earliest of: (A) six (6) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents’, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(b) Qualifying Termination During the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one-hundred and fifty percent (150%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under COBRA and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive COBRA Severance until the earliest of: (A) twelve (12) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(iv) Vesting Acceleration of Service-based Equity Awards. Notwithstanding the terms of the Company equity plan or plans under which the Executive’s Awards are granted or any applicable award agreements, vesting acceleration of one hundred percent (100%) of any Equity Awards that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

 

(c) Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment does not constitute a Qualifying Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits in connection with such termination except for those, if any, as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans or programs.

 

-2-

 

(d) Non-duplication of Payment or Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, vesting acceleration of any Awards, or other severance or separation benefits similar to those provided under this Agreement, by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company is a party other than this Agreement (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to Executive.

 

(e) Death of Executive. In the event of Executive’s death before all payments or benefits Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to Executive’s personal representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4. Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

 

5. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon a Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, including, but not limited to, a general release and other provisions required by the Company (the “Release”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline Date”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline Date, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

 

(b) Payment Timing. Any lump sum cash severance payments under Section 3 relating to base compensation severance and any bonus severance will be provided to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which Executive’s termination occurs), subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below. Any Equity Awards that are restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards (“Full Value Awards”) that accelerate vesting under Section 3(b)(iii) will be settled, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below (or the terms of the Full Value Award agreement or other Company plan, policy, or arrangement governing the settlement timing of the Full Value Award to the extent such terms specifically require any such delay in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, as applicable), on a date within ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable.

 

-3-

 

(c) COBRA Severance Limitations. If the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Severance, if any is otherwise due under the terms of Section 3, without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then in lieu of such COBRA Severance, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below and except as provided by the last sentence of this Section 5(c), the Company will provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment payable on the last day of a given month (provided that no such payments will be made prior to the effectiveness of the Release, and any such payments delayed as a result will be paid, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below, in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of the Qualifying Termination (which amount will be based on the premium rates applicable for the first month of COBRA Severance for Executive and any eligible dependents of Executive) (each, a “COBRA Replacement Payment”), which COBRA Replacement Payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and will end on the earlier of (i) the date upon which Executive obtains other employment, or (ii) the date the Company has paid an amount totaling the number of COBRA Replacement Payments equal to the number of months in the applicable COBRA Severance period set forth in clause (A) of Section 3(a)(iii) or Section 3(b)(ii), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Replacement Payments may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to any applicable withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if the Company determines in its sole discretion at any time that it cannot provide the COBRA Replacement Payments without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Executive will not receive the COBRA Replacement Payments, any further COBRA Severance or any payments or benefits in lieu thereof.

 

(d) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities and ambiguous terms in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payments or benefits to be provided to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A, references to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 

(i) Any payments or benefits paid or provided under this Agreement that satisfy the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), or that qualify as payments made as a result of an involuntary separation from service under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) that is within the limit set forth thereunder, will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of this Section 5(d).

 

(ii) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments payable within the first six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service instead will be payable on the date six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s separation from service; provided that in the event of Executive’s death within such six (6) month period, any payments delayed by this subsection (ii) will be paid to Executive in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death. To the extent that Executive is not a specified employee but Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs at a time during the year whereby the Release Deadline Date will occur in the year immediately following the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments that otherwise would be payable prior to the Release Deadline Date instead will be paid on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the Release Deadline Date.

(iii) The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will Executive have any discretion to choose Executive’s taxable year in which any payments or benefits are provided under this Agreement. In no event will the Company or any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

 

6. Limitation on Payments.

 

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from the Company or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments will be either delivered in full, or delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in Payments is made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the reduction will occur, with respect to the Payments considered parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G, in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and neither the Company nor any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

 

-5-

 

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determinations required under this Section 6 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting or valuation firm (the “Firm”) selected by the Company, whose determinations will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments required to be made to the Firm for the Firm’s services that are rendered in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

 

7. Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Annual Base Compensation” means Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualifying Termination (or, if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in Executive’s annual base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the reduction) or, if Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period and the amount is greater, Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a Change in Control if: (x) its sole purpose is to change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (y) its sole purpose is to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

RENOVORX, INC.

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This Amended and Restated Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between RenovoRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Ramtin Agah (“Executive”), effective as of the Effective Date, as defined in Section 7 below. This Agreement amends and restates the Change in Control and Severance Agreement entered into between the Company and the Executive on November 11, 2021 and amended on August 15, 2023.

 

This Agreement provides certain protections to Executive in connection with an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under the circumstances described in this Agreement, including in connection with a change in control of the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 7 below.

 

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

 

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will continue indefinitely until terminated by written consent of the parties hereto, or if earlier, upon the date that all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

 

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. No payments, benefits, or provisions under this Agreement will confer upon Executive any right to continue Executive’s employment with the Company, nor will they interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or Executive to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

 

3. Severance Benefits.

 

(a) Qualifying Termination Outside of the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs other than during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

 

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive Company-paid group health, dental and vision coverage for Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable (the “COBRA Severance”), following the Qualifying Termination until the earliest of: (A) six (6) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents’, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(b) Qualifying Termination During the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under COBRA and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive COBRA Severance until the earliest of: (A) twelve (12) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(iv) Vesting Acceleration of Service-based Equity Awards. Notwithstanding the terms of the Company equity plan or plans under which the Executive’s Awards are granted or any applicable award agreements, vesting acceleration of one hundred percent (100%) of any Equity Awards that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

 

(c) Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment does not constitute a Qualifying Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits in connection with such termination except for those, if any, as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans or programs.

 

-2-

 

(d) Non-duplication of Payment or Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, vesting acceleration of any Awards, or other severance or separation benefits similar to those provided under this Agreement, by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company is a party other than this Agreement (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to Executive.

 

(e) Death of Executive. In the event of Executive’s death before all payments or benefits Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to Executive’s personal representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4. Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

 

5. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon a Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, including, but not limited to, a general release and other provisions required by the Company (the “Release”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline Date”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline Date, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

 

(b) Payment Timing. Any lump sum cash severance payments under Section 3 relating to base compensation severance and any bonus severance will be provided to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which Executive’s termination occurs), subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below. Any Equity Awards that are restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards (“Full Value Awards”) that accelerate vesting under Section 3(b)(iii) will be settled, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below (or the terms of the Full Value Award agreement or other Company plan, policy, or arrangement governing the settlement timing of the Full Value Award to the extent such terms specifically require any such delay in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, as applicable), on a date within ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable.

 

-3-

 

(c) COBRA Severance Limitations. If the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Severance, if any is otherwise due under the terms of Section 3, without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then in lieu of such COBRA Severance, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below and except as provided by the last sentence of this Section 5(c), the Company will provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment payable on the last day of a given month (provided that no such payments will be made prior to the effectiveness of the Release, and any such payments delayed as a result will be paid, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below, in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of the Qualifying Termination (which amount will be based on the premium rates applicable for the first month of COBRA Severance for Executive and any eligible dependents of Executive) (each, a “COBRA Replacement Payment”), which COBRA Replacement Payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and will end on the earlier of (i) the date upon which Executive obtains other employment, or (ii) the date the Company has paid an amount totaling the number of COBRA Replacement Payments equal to the number of months in the applicable COBRA Severance period set forth in clause (A) of Section 3(a)(iii) or Section 3(b)(ii), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Replacement Payments may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to any applicable withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if the Company determines in its sole discretion at any time that it cannot provide the COBRA Replacement Payments without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Executive will not receive the COBRA Replacement Payments, any further COBRA Severance or any payments or benefits in lieu thereof.

 

(d) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities and ambiguous terms in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payments or benefits to be provided to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A, references to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 

(i) Any payments or benefits paid or provided under this Agreement that satisfy the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), or that qualify as payments made as a result of an involuntary separation from service under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) that is within the limit set forth thereunder, will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of this Section 5(d).

 

(ii) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments payable within the first six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service instead will be payable on the date six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s separation from service; provided that in the event of Executive’s death within such six (6) month period, any payments delayed by this subsection (ii) will be paid to Executive in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death. To the extent that Executive is not a specified employee but Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs at a time during the year whereby the Release Deadline Date will occur in the year immediately following the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments that otherwise would be payable prior to the Release Deadline Date instead will be paid on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the Release Deadline Date.

(iii) The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will Executive have any discretion to choose Executive’s taxable year in which any payments or benefits are provided under this Agreement. In no event will the Company or any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

 

6. Limitation on Payments.

 

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from the Company or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments will be either delivered in full, or delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in Payments is made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the reduction will occur, with respect to the Payments considered parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G, in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and neither the Company nor any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

 

-5-

 

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determinations required under this Section 6 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting or valuation firm (the “Firm”) selected by the Company, whose determinations will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments required to be made to the Firm for the Firm’s services that are rendered in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

 

7. Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Annual Base Compensation” means Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualifying Termination (or, if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in Executive’s annual base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the reduction) or, if Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period and the amount is greater, Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a Change in Control if: (x) its sole purpose is to change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (y) its sole purpose is to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

RENOVORX, INC.

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This Amended and Restated Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between RenovoRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Ron Kocak (“Executive”), effective as of the Effective Date, as defined in Section 7 below. This Agreement amends and restates the Change in Control and Severance Agreement entered into between the Company and the Executive on June 6, 2024.

 

This Agreement provides certain protections to Executive in connection with an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under the circumstances described in this Agreement, including in connection with a change in control of the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 7 below.

 

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

 

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will continue indefinitely until terminated by written consent of the parties hereto, or if earlier, upon the date that all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

 

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. No payments, benefits, or provisions under this Agreement will confer upon Executive any right to continue Executive’s employment with the Company, nor will they interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or Executive to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

 

3. Severance Benefits.

 

(a) Qualifying Termination Outside of the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs other than during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

 

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive Company-paid group health, dental and vision coverage for Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable (the “COBRA Severance”), following the Qualifying Termination until the earliest of: (A) six (6) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents’, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(b) Qualifying Termination During the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under COBRA and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive COBRA Severance until the earliest of: (A) twelve (12) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(iv) Vesting Acceleration of Service-based Equity Awards. Notwithstanding the terms of the Company equity plan or plans under which the Executive’s Awards are granted or any applicable award agreements, vesting acceleration of one hundred percent (100%) of any Equity Awards that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

 

(c) Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment does not constitute a Qualifying Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits in connection with such termination except for those, if any, as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans or programs.

 

(d) Non-duplication of Payment or Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, vesting acceleration of any Awards, or other severance or separation benefits similar to those provided under this Agreement, by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company is a party other than this Agreement (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to Executive.

 

-2-

 

(e) Death of Executive. In the event of Executive’s death before all payments or benefits Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to Executive’s personal representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4. Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

 

5. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon a Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, including, but not limited to, a general release and other provisions required by the Company (the “Release”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline Date”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline Date, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

 

(b) Payment Timing. Any lump sum cash severance payments under Section 3 relating to base compensation severance and any bonus severance will be provided to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which Executive’s termination occurs), subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below. Any Equity Awards that are restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards (“Full Value Awards”) that accelerate vesting under Section 3(b)(iii) will be settled, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below (or the terms of the Full Value Award agreement or other Company plan, policy, or arrangement governing the settlement timing of the Full Value Award to the extent such terms specifically require any such delay in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, as applicable), on a date within ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable.

 

(c) COBRA Severance Limitations. If the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Severance, if any is otherwise due under the terms of Section 3, without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then in lieu of such COBRA Severance, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below and except as provided by the last sentence of this Section 5(c), the Company will provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment payable on the last day of a given month (provided that no such payments will be made prior to the effectiveness of the Release, and any such payments delayed as a result will be paid, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below, in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of the Qualifying Termination (which amount will be based on the premium rates applicable for the first month of COBRA Severance for Executive and any eligible dependents of Executive) (each, a “COBRA Replacement Payment”), which COBRA Replacement Payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and will end on the earlier of (i) the date upon which Executive obtains other employment, or (ii) the date the Company has paid an amount totaling the number of COBRA Replacement Payments equal to the number of months in the applicable COBRA Severance period set forth in clause (A) of Section 3(a)(iii) or Section 3(b)(ii), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Replacement Payments may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to any applicable withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if the Company determines in its sole discretion at any time that it cannot provide the COBRA Replacement Payments without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Executive will not receive the COBRA Replacement Payments, any further COBRA Severance or any payments or benefits in lieu thereof.

(d) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities and ambiguous terms in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payments or benefits to be provided to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A, references to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 

(i) Any payments or benefits paid or provided under this Agreement that satisfy the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), or that qualify as payments made as a result of an involuntary separation from service under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) that is within the limit set forth thereunder, will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of this Section 5(d).

 

(ii) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments payable within the first six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service instead will be payable on the date six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s separation from service; provided that in the event of Executive’s death within such six (6) month period, any payments delayed by this subsection (ii) will be paid to Executive in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death. To the extent that Executive is not a specified employee but Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs at a time during the year whereby the Release Deadline Date will occur in the year immediately following the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments that otherwise would be payable prior to the Release Deadline Date instead will be paid on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the Release Deadline Date.

(iii) The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will Executive have any discretion to choose Executive’s taxable year in which any payments or benefits are provided under this Agreement. In no event will the Company or any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

 

6. Limitation on Payments.

 

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from the Company or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments will be either delivered in full, or delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in Payments is made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the reduction will occur, with respect to the Payments considered parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G, in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and neither the Company nor any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

 

-5-

 

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determinations required under this Section 6 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting or valuation firm (the “Firm”) selected by the Company, whose determinations will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments required to be made to the Firm for the Firm’s services that are rendered in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

 

7. Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Annual Base Compensation” means Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualifying Termination (or, if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in Executive’s annual base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the reduction) or, if Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period and the amount is greater, Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a Change in Control if: (x) its sole purpose is to change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (y) its sole purpose is to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

RENOVORX, INC.

 

AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE IN CONTROL AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENT

 

This Amended and Restated Change in Control and Severance Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made by and between RenovoRx, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Leesa Gentry (“Executive”), effective as of the Effective Date, as defined in Section 7 below. This Agreement amends and restates the Change in Control and Severance Agreement entered into between the Company and the Executive on September 19, 2022.

 

This Agreement provides certain protections to Executive in connection with an involuntary termination of Executive’s employment with the Company under the circumstances described in this Agreement, including in connection with a change in control of the Company. Certain capitalized terms used in this Agreement are defined in Section 7 below.

 

The Company and Executive agree as follows:

 

1. Term of Agreement. This Agreement will continue indefinitely until terminated by written consent of the parties hereto, or if earlier, upon the date that all of the obligations of the parties hereto with respect to this Agreement have been satisfied.

 

2. At-Will Employment. The Company and Executive acknowledge that Executive’s employment is and will continue to be at-will, as defined under applicable law. No payments, benefits, or provisions under this Agreement will confer upon Executive any right to continue Executive’s employment with the Company, nor will they interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or Executive to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by applicable laws.

 

3. Severance Benefits.

 

(a) Qualifying Termination Outside of the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs other than during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to fifty percent (50%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

 

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”) and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive Company-paid group health, dental and vision coverage for Executive and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable (the “COBRA Severance”), following the Qualifying Termination until the earliest of: (A) six (6) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents’, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(b) Qualifying Termination During the Change in Control Period. In the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs during the Change in Control Period, Executive will receive the following payments and benefits from the Company, subject to the requirements of this Agreement:

 

(i) Base Compensation Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of Executive’s Annual Base Compensation.

 

(ii) Bonus Severance. A single, lump sum, cash payment equal to the product of (i) the Executive’s Target Bonus, if any, that the Executive would have earned for the entire fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs; and (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days the Executive was employed by the Company during the fiscal year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs and the denominator of which is the number of days in such fiscal year.

 

(iii) COBRA Severance. Subject to Executive timely electing continuation coverage under COBRA and further subject to Section 5(c), Executive will receive COBRA Severance until the earliest of: (A) twelve (12) months following the date of the Qualifying Termination, (B) the date on which Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents (as applicable) become covered under similar plans, or (C) the expiration of Executive’s (and any of Executive’s eligible dependents, as applicable) eligibility for continuation coverage under COBRA.

 

(iv) Vesting Acceleration of Service-based Equity Awards. Notwithstanding the terms of the Company equity plan or plans under which the Executive’s Awards are granted or any applicable award agreements, vesting acceleration of one hundred percent (100%) of any Equity Awards that are outstanding and unvested as of the date of the Qualifying Termination.

 

(c) Termination Other Than a Qualifying Termination. If the termination of Executive’s employment does not constitute a Qualifying Termination, then Executive will not be entitled to receive any severance or other benefits in connection with such termination except for those, if any, as may then be established under the Company’s then existing severance and benefits plans or programs.

 

(d) Non-duplication of Payment or Benefits. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if Executive is entitled to any cash severance, continued health coverage benefits, vesting acceleration of any Awards, or other severance or separation benefits similar to those provided under this Agreement, by operation of applicable law or under a plan, policy, contract, or arrangement sponsored by or to which the Company is a party other than this Agreement (“Other Benefits”), then the corresponding severance payments and benefits under this Agreement will be reduced by the amount of Other Benefits paid or provided to Executive.

 

-2-

 

(e) Death of Executive. In the event of Executive’s death before all payments or benefits Executive is entitled to receive under this Agreement have been provided, the unpaid amounts will be provided to Executive’s designated beneficiary, if living, or otherwise to Executive’s personal representative in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

4. Accrued Compensation. On any termination of Executive’s employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive all accrued but unpaid vacation, expense reimbursements, wages, and other benefits due to Executive under any Company-provided plans, policies, and arrangements.

 

5. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

 

(a) Separation Agreement and Release of Claims. Executive’s receipt of any severance payments or benefits upon a Qualifying Termination under Section 3 is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form satisfactory to the Company, including, but not limited to, a general release and other provisions required by the Company (the “Release”), which must become effective and irrevocable no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following the date of the Qualifying Termination (the “Release Deadline Date”). If the Release does not become effective and irrevocable by the Release Deadline Date, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under Section 3.

 

(b) Payment Timing. Any lump sum cash severance payments under Section 3 relating to base compensation severance and any bonus severance will be provided to Executive on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable (but no later than March 15 of the calendar year following the year in which Executive’s termination occurs), subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below. Any Equity Awards that are restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units, and/or similar full value awards (“Full Value Awards”) that accelerate vesting under Section 3(b)(iii) will be settled, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below (or the terms of the Full Value Award agreement or other Company plan, policy, or arrangement governing the settlement timing of the Full Value Award to the extent such terms specifically require any such delay in order to comply with the requirements of Section 409A, as applicable), on a date within ten (10) days following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable.

 

(c) COBRA Severance Limitations. If the Company determines in its sole discretion that it cannot provide the COBRA Severance, if any is otherwise due under the terms of Section 3, without potentially violating, or being subject to an excise tax under, applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), then in lieu of such COBRA Severance, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below and except as provided by the last sentence of this Section 5(c), the Company will provide to Executive a taxable monthly payment payable on the last day of a given month (provided that no such payments will be made prior to the effectiveness of the Release, and any such payments delayed as a result will be paid, subject to any delay required by Section 5(d) below, in a lump sum on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the date the Release becomes effective and irrevocable), in an amount equal to the monthly COBRA premium that Executive would be required to pay to continue Executive’s group health coverage in effect on the date of the Qualifying Termination (which amount will be based on the premium rates applicable for the first month of COBRA Severance for Executive and any eligible dependents of Executive) (each, a “COBRA Replacement Payment”), which COBRA Replacement Payments will be made regardless of whether Executive elects COBRA continuation coverage and will end on the earlier of (i) the date upon which Executive obtains other employment, or (ii) the date the Company has paid an amount totaling the number of COBRA Replacement Payments equal to the number of months in the applicable COBRA Severance period set forth in clause (A) of Section 3(a)(iii) or Section 3(b)(ii), as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the COBRA Replacement Payments may be used for any purpose, including, but not limited to continuation coverage under COBRA, and will be subject to any applicable withholdings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary under this Agreement, if the Company determines in its sole discretion at any time that it cannot provide the COBRA Replacement Payments without violating applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 2716 of the Public Health Service Act), Executive will not receive the COBRA Replacement Payments, any further COBRA Severance or any payments or benefits in lieu thereof.

(d) Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the payments or benefits will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities and ambiguous terms in this Agreement will be interpreted in accordance with this intent. No payments or benefits to be provided to Executive, if any, under this Agreement or otherwise, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits that are considered deferred compensation under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. To the extent required to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A, references to the termination of Executive’s employment or similar phrases used in this Agreement will mean Executive’s “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 

(i) Any payments or benefits paid or provided under this Agreement that satisfy the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(4), or that qualify as payments made as a result of an involuntary separation from service under Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) that is within the limit set forth thereunder, will not constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of this Section 5(d).

 

(ii) Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s separation from service (other than due to death), then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments payable within the first six (6) months after Executive’s separation from service instead will be payable on the date six (6) months and one (1) day after Executive’s separation from service; provided that in the event of Executive’s death within such six (6) month period, any payments delayed by this subsection (ii) will be paid to Executive in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death. To the extent that Executive is not a specified employee but Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs at a time during the year whereby the Release Deadline Date will occur in the year immediately following the year in which the Qualifying Termination occurs, then any payments or benefits under this Agreement that constitute Deferred Payments that otherwise would be payable prior to the Release Deadline Date instead will be paid on the first regularly scheduled payroll date of the Company following the Release Deadline Date.

(iii) The Company reserves the right to amend this Agreement as it considers necessary or advisable, in its sole discretion and without the consent of Executive or any other individual, to comply with any provision required to avoid the imposition of the additional tax imposed under Section 409A or to otherwise avoid income recognition under Section 409A prior to the actual payment of any benefits or imposition of any additional tax. Each payment, installment, and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Treasury Regulations Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). In no event will Executive have any discretion to choose Executive’s taxable year in which any payments or benefits are provided under this Agreement. In no event will the Company or any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any taxes, penalties or interest that may be imposed, or other costs that may be incurred, as a result of Section 409A.

 

6. Limitation on Payments.

 

(a) Reduction of Severance Benefits. If any payment or benefit that Executive would receive from the Company or any other party whether in connection with the provisions in this Agreement or otherwise (the “Payments”) would (i) constitute a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments will be either delivered in full, or delivered as to such lesser extent that would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax, whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of Payments, notwithstanding that all or some of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in Payments is made in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the reduction will occur, with respect to the Payments considered parachute payments within the meaning of Code Section 280G, in the following order: (A) reduction of cash payments in reverse chronological order (that is, the cash payment owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first cash payment to be reduced); (B) cancellation of equity awards that were granted “contingent on a change in ownership or control” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); (C) reduction of the accelerated vesting of equity awards in the reverse order of date of grant of the equity awards (that is, the vesting of the most recently granted equity awards will be cancelled first); and (D) reduction of employee benefits in reverse chronological order (that is, the benefit owed on the latest date following the occurrence of the event triggering the Excise Tax will be the first benefit to be reduced). In no event will Executive have any discretion with respect to the ordering of Payment reductions. Executive will be solely responsible for the payment of all personal tax liability that is incurred as a result of the payments and benefits received under this Agreement, and neither the Company nor any parent, subsidiary or other affiliate of the Company have any responsibility, liability or obligation to reimburse, indemnify or hold harmless Executive for any of those payments of personal tax liability.

 

-5-

 

(b) Determination of Excise Tax Liability. Unless the Company and Executive otherwise agree in writing, any determinations required under this Section 6 will be made in writing by a nationally recognized accounting or valuation firm (the “Firm”) selected by the Company, whose determinations will be conclusive and binding upon Executive and the Company for all purposes. For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 6, the Firm may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and Executive will furnish to the Firm such information and documents as the Firm reasonably may request in order to make determinations under this Section 6. The Company will bear the costs and make all payments required to be made to the Firm for the Firm’s services that are rendered in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 6. The Company will have no liability to Executive for the determinations of the Firm.

 

7. Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

 

(a) “Annual Base Compensation” means Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualifying Termination (or, if the termination is due to a resignation for Good Reason based on a material reduction in Executive’s annual base salary, then Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the reduction) or, if Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period and the amount is greater, Executive’s annual base salary in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

 

(b) “Award” means stock options and other equity awards covering shares of Company common stock granted to Executive.

 

(c) “Board” means the Company’s Board of Directors.

 

(d) “Cause” means Executive’s: (i) dishonesty of a material nature; (ii) theft or embezzlement of Company funds or assets; (iii) being convicted of, or guilty plea or no contest plea to, a felony charge or any misdemeanor involving moral turpitude, or the entry of a consent decree with any governmental body; (iv) noncompliance in any material respect with any U.S. or non-U.S. laws or regulations; (v) violation of any express direction or any rule, regulation or policy established by the Company or the Board; (vi) material breach of this Agreement or the Confidentiality Agreement; (vii) breach of any fiduciary duty to the Company; (viii) gross incompetence, neglect, or misconduct in the performance of Executive’s duties; (ix) repeated failure to perform Executive’s duties and responsibilities for the Company or follow the reasonable and lawful instructions of the Company; or (x) the Company’s financial distress, whereby the Company is in the process of winding down its business or ceasing or pausing its operations and Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated in connection with such financial distress-related winding down or ceasing or pausing of operations.

(i) Change in Ownership of the Company. A change in the ownership of the Company which occurs on the date that any one person, or more than one person acting as a group (“Person”), acquires ownership of the stock of the Company that, together with the stock held by such Person, constitutes more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the stock of the Company; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection, the acquisition of additional stock by any one Person, who is considered to own more than fifty percent (50%) of the total voting power of the stock of the Company will not be considered a Change in Control; provided, further, that any change in the ownership of the stock of the Company as a result of a private financing of the Company that is approved by the Board also will not be considered a Change in Control. Further, if the stockholders of the Company immediately before such change in ownership continue to retain immediately after the change in ownership, in substantially the same proportions as their ownership of shares of the Company’s voting stock immediately prior to the change in ownership, direct or indirect beneficial ownership of fifty percent (50%) or more of the total voting power of the stock of the Company or of the ultimate parent entity of the Company, such event shall not be considered a Change in Control under this subsection (i). For this purpose, indirect beneficial ownership shall include, without limitation, an interest resulting from ownership of the voting securities of one or more corporations or other business entities which own the Company, as the case may be, either directly or through one or more subsidiary corporations or other business entities; or

 

(ii) Change in Effective Control of the Company. If the Company has a class of securities registered pursuant to Section 12 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, a change in the effective control of the Company which occurs on the date that a majority of members of the Board is replaced during any twelve (12) month period by Directors whose appointment or election is not endorsed by a majority of the members of the Board prior to the date of the appointment or election. For purposes of this subsection (ii), if any Person is considered to be in effective control of the Company, the acquisition of additional control of the Company by the same Person will not be considered a Change in Control; or

 

(iii) Change in Ownership of a Substantial Portion of the Company’s Assets. A change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets which occurs on the date that any Person acquires (or has acquired during the twelve (12) month period ending on the date of the most recent acquisition by such Person or Persons) assets from the Company that have a total gross fair market value equal to or more than fifty percent (50%) of the total gross fair market value of all of the assets of the Company immediately prior to such acquisition or acquisitions; provided, however, that for purposes of this subsection (iii), the following will not constitute a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the Company’s assets: (A) a transfer to an entity that is controlled by the Company’s stockholders immediately after the transfer, or (B) a transfer of assets by the Company to: (1) a stockholder of the Company (immediately before the asset transfer) in exchange for or with respect to the Company’s stock, (2) an entity, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by the Company, (3) a Person, that owns, directly or indirectly, fifty percent (50%) or more of the total value or voting power of all the outstanding stock of the Company, or (4) an entity, at least fifty percent (50%) of the total value or voting power of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by a Person described in this subsection (iii)(B)(3). For purposes of this subsection (iii), gross fair market value means the value of the assets of the Company, or the value of the assets being disposed of, determined without regard to any liabilities associated with such assets.

 

-7-

 

For purposes of this definition, persons will be considered to be acting as a group if they are owners of a corporation that enters into a merger, consolidation, purchase or acquisition of stock, or similar business transaction with the Company.

 

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction will not be deemed a Change in Control unless the transaction qualifies as a change in control event within the meaning of Section 409A. Further and for the avoidance of doubt, a transaction will not constitute a Change in Control if: (x) its sole purpose is to change the jurisdiction of the Company’s incorporation, or (y) its sole purpose is to create a holding company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction.

 

(f) “Change in Control Period” means the period beginning on the date of a Change in Control and ending on (and inclusive of) the date that is the two (2) year anniversary of a Change in Control.

Reference to a specific section of the Code or regulation thereunder will include such section or regulation, any valid regulation promulgated under such section, and any comparable provision of any future legislation or regulation amending, supplementing or superseding such section or regulation.

 

(h) “Confidentiality Agreement” means Executive’s At-Will Employment, Confidential Information, Invention Assignment, and Arbitration Agreement entered into with the Company in August or September 2022, or any similar agreement entered into with the Company thereafter.

(m) “Good Reason” means Executive’s termination of Executive’s employment with the Company within thirty (30) days following the end of the Company’s Cure Period (as defined below) as a result of the occurrence of any of the following without Executive’s written consent: (i) a material diminution in Executive’s annual base salary; (ii) the assignment to Executive of duties that are materially inconsistent with Executive’s duties that results in a material diminution of Executive’s duties with the Company in effect immediately prior to such assignment (except as caused by or related to the Company’s financial distress, whereby the Company is in the process of winding down or ceasing or pausing its operations); (iii) a material diminution in Executive’s authority, responsibilities, or job title (except as caused by or related to the Company’s financial distress, whereby the Company is in the process of winding down or ceasing or pausing its operations); (iv) a material change in the location of Executive’s primary place of work to a location more than fifty (50) miles from Executive’s primary place of work immediately prior to such change and that is further from Executive’s residence; provided, however, that Executive must provide written notice to the Company of the condition that could constitute a “Good Reason” event within sixty (60) days following the initial existence of such condition and such condition must not have been remedied by the Company within thirty (30) days (the “Cure Period”) of such written notice. To the extent Executive’s primary work location is Executive’s residence due to a shelter-in-place order or similar work-from-home arrangement that applies to Executive, Executive’s primary place of work, from which a change in location under the foregoing clause (iv) will be measured, will be considered the Company’s office location where Executive’s employment with the Company primarily was based immediately prior to the commencement of such shelter-in-place order or similar work-from-home arrangement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any termination of Executive’s employment by Executive caused by or related to the Company’s financial distress, whereby the Company is in the process of winding down its business or ceasing or pausing its operations and Executive terminates Executive’s employment with the Company in connection with such financial distress-related winding down or ceasing or pausing of operations shall not constitute Good Reason.

 

-8-


 

(n) “Qualifying Termination” means a termination of Executive’s employment with the Company either (i) by the Company without Cause and other than due to Executive’s death or Disability, or (ii) by Executive for Good Reason. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or Executive caused by or related to the Company’s financial distress, whereby the Company is in the process of winding down its business or ceasing or pausing its operations and Executive’s employment with the Company is terminated by Company or Executive in connection with such financial distress-related winding down or ceasing or pausing of operations shall not constitute a Qualifying Termination.

 

(o) “Section 409A” means Code Section 409A and the Treasury Regulations and guidance thereunder, and any applicable state law equivalent, as each may be promulgated, amended or modified from time to time.

 

(p) “Target Bonus” means Executive’s annual (or annualized, if applicable) target bonus in effect immediately prior to Executive’s Qualifying Termination or, if Executive’s Qualifying Termination occurs during the Change in Control Period and the amount is greater, Executive’s annual (or annualized, if applicable) target bonus in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control.

 

8. Successors. This Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of (a) the heirs, executors, and legal representatives of Executive upon Executive’s death, and (b) any successor of the Company.

10. Resignation.

This Agreement, together with the Confidentiality Agreement, Executive’s offer letter with the Company dated March 8, 2024, and the Company’s 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan and award agreements thereunder governing Executive’s Awards, constitutes the entire agreement of the parties and supersedes in their entirety all prior representations, understandings, undertakings or agreements (whether oral or written and whether expressed or implied) of the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement, including without limitation, Executive’s offer letter, as amended, with the Company originally dated March 31, 2023.
