Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

We review compensation annually for all of our employees, including our executives. In setting executive base salaries and bonuses and granting equity incentive awards, we consider compensation for comparable positions in the market, the historical compensation levels of our executives, individual performance as compared to our expectations and objectives, our desire to motivate our employees to achieve short- and long-term results that are in the best interests of our stockholders, and a long-term commitment to our company. We do not target a specific competitive position or a specific mix of compensation among base salary, bonus or long-term incentives.

Our board of directors has historically determined our executives’ compensation. Our compensation committee typically has reviewed and discussed management’s proposed compensation with the President and Chief Executive Officer for all executives other than our President and Chief Executive Officer. Based on those discussions and its discretion, the compensation committee then has recommended the compensation for each executive officer. Our board of directors, without members of management present, has discussed the compensation committee’s recommendations and ultimately approved the compensation of our executive officers. Our compensation committee is responsible for approving the compensation and benefits of our executive officers.

We have a formal employment agreement with Konstantinos Alataris, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Operating Officer. We also have an executed employment offer letter with Georgia Erbez, our Chief Business Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer and with Donald Kellerman, our Vice President, Clinical Development. We had a formal employment agreement with Vikram Lamba, our former Chief Executive Officer, until Mr. Lamba’s employment with the Company was terminated on January 6, 2016. Dr. Alataris’ employment agreement provides for an initial base salary of $375,000, subject to increase from time to time. In February 2016, we amended Dr. Alataris’ employment agreement to reflect his capacity to serve as our Chief Executive Officer starting January 2016 at a base salary of $450,000. The amended employment agreement provides for a target annual bonus of 50% of his annual base salary for 2016, to be determined by the board of directors in its discretion based on company performance against goals established annually by the compensation committee, as well as the Company’s then prevailing cash position. Ms. Erbez’s employment letter agreement provides for an initial base salary of $350,000, subject to increase from time to time. Ms. Erbez joined the Company on September 7, 2016. Ms. Erbez employment letter agreement provides for a target annual bonus of 40% of her annual base salary, to be determined by the board of directors in its discretion after consideration of a proposal from the CEO based on company performance against goals established annually by the compensation committee, as well as the Company’s then prevailing cash position. Dr. Kellerman’s employment offer letter agreement provides for an initial base salary of $265,000. At the end of 2016, Dr. Kellerman’s annual base salary was $320,000. Dr. Kellerman’s employment offer letter provides for a targeted bonus of 30% of his annual base salary, to be awarded and paid in accordance with the terms of the Company’s bonus program adopted by our Compensation Committee in February 2015 and based on achievement of company performance and individual goals and other factors deemed relevant by our Compensation Committee. Based on the factors described above, the board of directors and the compensation committee awarded Dr. Alataris, Ms. Erbez and Dr. Kellerman 2016 bonuses of $191,250, $41,300 and $90,000, respectively.

If during the one -year period following a change in control of our company, either we terminate Dr. Alataris’s employment without cause or Dr. Alataris resigns due to a constructive termination, he will be entitled to receive (i) continued salary for twenty-four months and a lump sum cash amount equal to 229.56% multiplied by the total cost of the projected premiums for group medical, dental and vision insurance for a period of twenty-four months covering the period from and after the date of termination, (ii) a bonus equal to the amount of the annual bonus awarded to him in respect of the year prior to termination, and (iii) his then outstanding equity awards that were granted after the effective date of the Alataris Employment Agreement and that are subject to time based vesting will accelerate vesting in full.

Pursuant to the terms of Ms. Erbez’s employment agreement, if the Company terminates Ms. Erbez other than for cause, or in the event of her resignation for good reason, then, for the six month period following such termination of her employment, the Company will continue to pay Ms. Erbez her base salary and provide her with group medical, dental and vision insurance. In addition, the vesting schedule for any outstanding stock options held by Ms. Erbez on the date of termination will automatically accelerate so that 25% of the then unvested total option shares will immediately become exercisable upon such termination. If, during the one-year period following a change in control of our Company, either we terminate Ms. Erbez’s employment without cause or Ms. Erbez resigns for good reason, then she shall be entitled to receive a lump sum severance payment equal to twelve months of her base salary and a lump sum payment equal to the total cost of projected premiums for group medical, dental and vision insurance for a period of twelve months.

If within a year after a change of control, as defined in the employment agreement, Mr. Lamba’s employment was terminated without cause or Mr. Lamba resigned for good reason, then Mr. Lamba’s stock option would vest in full. As a result of the termination of Mr. Lamba’s employment without cause, as defined in his employment agreement, effective January 6, 2016, Mr. Lamba received nine months of salary, pro rata bonus payment in respect of those nine months, and acceleration of vesting of all of his outstanding stock options in accordance with his employment agreement.

ITEM 13.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTORS INDEPENDENCE

Related Person Transactions

Since January 1, 2015, we have engaged in the following transactions with our directors, executive officers, holders of more than 5% of our voting securities, and affiliates or immediate family members of our directors, executive officers, and holders of more than 5% of our voting securities. We believe that all of these transactions were on terms as favorable as could have been obtained from unrelated third parties.

Real Property Lease with BMR

We have an operating lease with BMR-34790 Ardentech Court LP, which is an affiliate of BMV Direct SOTRS LP and BMV Direct SO LP, for a 55,000 square foot facility in Fremont, California, where we operate our manufacturing operations and house our engineering, research and development and administrative employees. For the years ended December 31, 2015 and 2016, we recorded rent expense for BMR-34790 Ardentech Court LP in the amount of approximately $0.6 million for each year. In June 2015, we entered into another amendment to the lease, pursuant to which BMR-34790 Ardentech Court LP’s option to recapture a specified portion of the leased premises (comprising approximately 29,348 square feet of the approximate total 55,588 square feet of leased premises) was suspended.

February 2014 Bridge Loan

In February 2014, we issued and sold convertible promissory notes, which we refer to as the February 2014 bridge notes, in the aggregate original principal amount of $2.5 million to our stockholders BMV Direct SOTRS LP, BMV Direct SO LP and New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership. The following is the original principal amount of February 2014 bridge notes that were issued to our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of our voting securities, and their affiliates or immediate family members:

•

BMV Direct SOTRS LP, in the original principal amount of approximately $1.1 million;

•

BMV Direct SO LP, in the original principal amount of approximately $250,000; and

•

New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership, in the original principal amount of approximately $1.2 million.

As consideration for our issuance of the February 2014 bridge notes, each investor paid us an amount equal to the original principal amount of the note issued to the investor. The February 2014 bridge notes matured on September 9, 2014 and accrued simple interest at the annual rate of 8%. As of January 30, 2015, the aggregate outstanding principal and accrued interest under the February 2014 bridge notes was approximately $2.7 million. Upon the closing of our initial public offering of common stock on January 30, 2015, which constituted a qualified financing as defined under the terms of the notes, the principal and all unpaid and accrued interest on each note automatically converted into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $9.35 per share (or 85% of the initial public offering price), resulting in the issuance of 122,882 shares of common stock BMV Direct SOTRS LP, 28,603 shares of common stock to BMV Direct SO LP, and 135,700 shares of common stock to New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership.

December 2014 Bridge Loan

In December 2014, we issued and sold convertible promissory notes, which we refer to as the December 2014 bridge notes, in the aggregate original principal amount of $1.3 million to our stockholders BMV Direct SOTRS LP and New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership. The following is the original principal amount of December 2014 bridge notes that were issued to our directors, executive officers and holders of more than 5% of our voting securities, and their affiliates or immediate family members:

•

BMV Direct SOTRS LP, in the original principal amount of approximately $710,000; and

•

New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership, in the original principal amount of approximately $620,000.

As consideration for our issuance of the December 2014 bridge notes, each investor paid us an amount equal to the original principal amount of the note issued to the investor. The December 2014 bridge notes matured on June 1, 2017 and accrued simple interest at the annual rate of 8%. As of January 30, 2015, the aggregate outstanding principal and accrued interest under the December 2014 bridge notes was approximately $1.4 million. Upon the closing of our initial public offering of common stock on January 30, 2015, which constituted a qualified financing as defined under the terms of the notes, the principal and all unpaid and accrued interest on each note automatically converted into shares of our common stock at a conversion price equal to $9.35 per share (or 85% of the initial public offering price), resulting in the issuance of 76,731 shares of common stock BMV Direct SOTRS LP and 67,679 shares of common stock to New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership.

Private Placement with Eli Lilly and Company

In November 2014, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Eli Lilly and Company, or Lilly, pursuant to which Lilly agreed to purchase up to $15.0 million worth of our common stock in a private placement concurrent with the closing of our initial public offering, at a price per share equal to the initial public offering price. On January 30, 2015, pursuant to the stock purchase agreement and concurrent with the closing of our initial public offering, we issued and sold 1,363,636 shares of our common stock to Lilly at a price per share of $11.00 in a private placement, for an aggregate cash purchase price of $15.0 million. We received net proceeds of approximately $14.5 million from the sale of shares to Lilly in the private placement, after payment by us of a private placement fee to the representatives of the underwriters of our initial public offering. The shares of common stock issued to Lilly under the stock purchase agreement were deemed beneficially owned by Lilly in accordance with Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act upon the parties’ entry into the stock purchase agreement in November 2014, making Lilly a beneficial owner of more than 5% of our voting securities at that time.

Interests of Directors in our Financial Relationships

One of our directors, Bruce D. Steel, may be deemed to have an indirect material interest in our financial relationships with certain of our stockholders based on his association with such stockholders. Mr. Steel is a limited partner with a variable economic interest in each of BMV Direct SOTRS LP and BMV Direct SO LP, which entitles him to a percentage of certain distributions of these entities. Mr. Steel does not have voting or dispositive control of either of these entities. Mr. Steel disclaims beneficial ownership in our securities directly held by these entities except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.

Participation in our Initial Public Offering

BMV Direct SO LP purchased 26,543 shares, or an aggregate amount of $291,973 worth, of our common stock in our initial public offering in January 2015, and New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership purchased 23,457 shares, or an aggregate amount of $258,027 worth, of our common stock in our initial public offering in January 2015, in each case at the initial public offering price of $11.00 per share. The shares purchased by BMV Direct SO LP and New Enterprise Associates 12, Limited Partnership in our initial public offering were subject to lock-up agreements pursuant to which these investors agreed, subject to certain exceptions, not to dispose of or hedge any of their common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable for shares of common stock during the 180-day period following January 26, 2015, except with the prior written consent of the representatives of the underwriters for the initial public offering.

Private Investment in Public Equity (PIPE)

In August 2016, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement, or Purchase Agreement, between the Company and certain purchasers, including members of the Company’s Board of Directors and executive management, pursuant to which the Company sold and issued shares of common stock and warrants to purchase shares of common stock for aggregate gross proceeds of $7.5 million. Costs related to the offering were $0.9 million. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company sold 4,800,000 common shares at $1.32 per common share, the closing price per share on August 15, 2016, for gross proceeds of $6.3 million. Additionally, 9,600,000 warrants were sold, at a price of $0.125 per warrant, for gross proceeds of $1.2 million. Each warrant grants the holder the right to purchase one share of our common stock. The Company granted 4,800,000 Series A warrants and 4,800,000 Series B warrants. Series A warrants and Series B warrants have a per share exercise price of $1.45 and $1.55, respectively, and will expire one year and one week and five years, respectively, from the date of issuance, August 19, 2016. Certain of our directors and executive officers purchased an aggregate of 275,454 shares of common stock and an aggregate of 550,908 warrants in this offering at the same price as the other investors.


Name	Common Stock Purchased in Private Placement		Warrants Purchased in Private Placement		Aggregate Purchase Price
The Alataris Family Trust		127,389		254,778	$	200,001
John Walker		63,700		127,400		100,009

Hayley Lewis		4,775		9,550		7,497
Kleanthis G. Xanthopoulos, Ph.D.		15,920		31,840		24,994

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we agreed to register the resale of the shares of the common stock that we issued and any common stock issuable upon the exercise of the warrants that we issued in the private placement. In connection with the PIPE transaction, we filed a registration statement, Form S-3, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, registering the resale of these shares of common stock and shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. The registration statement was declared effective by the SEC on September 23, 2016.

Indemnification of Officers and Directors

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws provide that we will indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with each of our directors that are broader in scope than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law.

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions

Pursuant to the charter of our audit committee, our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and approving in advance any related person transactions. For the purposes of this policy, a “related person transaction” is any transaction between us or our subsidiary and any (a) of our directors or executive officers, (b) nominee for election as a director, (c) person known to us to own more than five percent of any class of our voting securities, or (d) member of the immediate family of any such person, if the nature of such transaction is such that it would be required to be disclosed under Item 404 of Regulation S-K (or any similar successor provision).

In determining whether to approve a related person transaction, the audit committee will take into account, among other factors it deems appropriate, whether the related person transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third person under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person’s interest in the transaction.

Director Independence

As of the date of this report and based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that each of Jay Hagan, John Walker, Troy Wilson and Kleanthis Xanthopoulos is an “independent director” as defined under Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Listing Rules and Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act, and that Bruce Steel is not an “independent director.” In making this determination, our board of directors considered the relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining the independence of such directors, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director.

Board Committees

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. Each of these committees, which are the only standing committees of our board of directors, operates under a charter that has been approved by our board of directors.

Audit Committee. Reference is made to the disclosure set forth under the caption “Audit Committee” under Item 10 of Part III of the Original Filing, which disclosure is incorporated herein by reference.

Compensation Committee. Our compensation committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. The current members of our compensation committee are Mr. Hagan, Dr. Wilson and Dr. Xanthopoulos, and each of whom is an independent director. The compensation committee:

•

approves the compensation and benefits of our executive officers;

•

reviews and makes recommendations to the board of directors regarding benefit plans and programs for employee compensation; and

•

administers our equity compensation plans.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our nominating and corporate governance committee is comprised entirely of independent directors. The current members of our nominating and corporate governance committee are Mr. Hagan, Dr. Wilson and Dr. Xanthopoulos, and each of whom is an independent director. The nominating and corporate governance committee:

•

identifies individuals qualified to become board members;

•

recommends to the board of directors nominations of persons to be elected to the board; and

•

advises the board regarding appropriate corporate governance policies and assists the board in achieving them.
