EXPLANATORY NOTE

Vaxart, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) previously filed its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 (the “Original Form 10-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 13, 2026. In accordance with General Instruction G(3) of Form 10-K, this Amendment No. 1 to the Original Form 10-K (this “Amendment”) is being filed solely for the purpose of filing the information required by Part III of Form 10-K.

Pursuant to the rules of the SEC, Part IV, Item 15 has also been amended to contain the currently dated certification from the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The certification of the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer are attached to this Amendment as Exhibit 31.1 and Exhibit 31.2, respectively. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certification have been omitted. Additionally, we are not including a currently dated certification under Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

This Amendment does not amend any other information set forth in our Annual Report and we have not updated disclosures included therein to reflect any subsequent events. This Amendment should be read in conjunction with our Annual Report and with our filings with the SEC subsequent to our Annual Report.

Information Regarding the Board of Directors and Corporate Governance

Family Relationships

There are no family relationships among the members of the board of directors and our executive officers.

Independence of the Board of Directors

As required under The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) listing standards, a majority of the members of a listed company’s board of directors must qualify as “independent,” as affirmatively determined by the board of directors. The board of directors consults with our counsel to ensure that its determinations are consistent with relevant securities and other laws and regulations regarding the definition of “independent,” including those set forth in pertinent listing standards of Nasdaq, as in effect from time to time.

Consistent with these considerations, after review of all relevant identified transactions or relationships between each director, or any of his or her family members, and us, our senior management and our independent auditors, the board of directors has affirmatively determined that all of our current directors, other than Mr. Lo due to his positions as our current President and Chief Executive Officer, are independent within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. In making this determination, the board of directors found that none of the independent nominees for director had a material or other disqualifying relationship with Vaxart.

Board Leadership Structure

We currently have separate individuals serving in the roles of Lead Director of the board of directors and Chief Executive Officer in recognition of the differences between the two roles. The board of directors believes that the decision as to whether the positions of Lead Director and Chief Executive Officer should be combined or separated, and whether an executive or an independent director should serve as Lead Director if the roles are split, should be based upon the particular circumstances facing the Company. The board of directors believes that it is important to retain the flexibility to allocate the responsibilities of the offices of Lead Director of the board of directors and Chief Executive Officer in any manner that it determines to be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders. Our Chief Executive Officer is responsible for setting the strategic direction for the Company and the day-to-day leadership of the Company, while the Lead Director of the board of directors provides guidance to the Chief Executive Officer, prepares the agendas for board meetings, determines materials to be distributed to the board of directors, and presides over the meetings of the board of directors. We believe this balance of shared leadership between the two positions is appropriate and is a strength for the Company.

Table of Contents

As discussed above, except for our Chief Executive Officer, our board of directors is comprised of independent directors. The active involvement of these independent directors, combined with the qualifications and significant responsibilities of our Chief Executive Officer, provide balance in the board of directors and promote strong, independent oversight of our management and affairs.

Role of the Board of Directors in Risk Oversight

The board of directors has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of Vaxart’s risks. The board of directors regularly reviews information regarding our credit, liquidity, and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. The Audit Committee’s charter mandates the Audit Committee to review and discuss with management and our independent registered public accounting firm, as appropriate, our major financial risk exposures and the steps taken by management to monitor and control these exposures. In addition, the Audit Committee discusses major financial, information security (including cybersecurity) and data privacy risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Nominating and Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of the board of directors and potential conflicts of interest. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire board of directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks.

Meetings of the Board of Directors

Our board of directors met eleven times during 2025. Each member of the board of directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the board of directors and of the committees on which the member served, held during the portion of 2025 for which the member was a director or committee member.

As required under applicable Nasdaq listing standards, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the Vaxart independent directors met at least twice in regularly scheduled executive sessions at which only independent directors were present. W, Mark Watson, the Lead Director, presided over the executive sessions.

Information Regarding Committees of the Board of Directors

The board of directors has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, and a Nominating and Governance Committee. The Science and Technology Committee was disbanded by the Company on September 30, 2025. The board of directors has adopted a written charter for each committee that is available to stockholders on the Investors section of our website at http://www.vaxart.com.

Committees of the Board of Directors

Below is a description of the Audit Committee, Compensation Committee, and Nominating and Governance Committee of the board of directors. Each of the committees has authority to engage legal counsel or other experts or consultants, as it deems appropriate to carry out its responsibilities.

Audit Committee

The members of our Audit Committee are Mr. Kevin P. Finney, Dr. Heron, and Mr. Watson. Mr. Watson serves as Chair of the Audit Committee. The board of directors reviews the Nasdaq listing standards definition of independence for Audit Committee members on an annual basis and has determined that all members of the Audit Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(c)(2)(A)(i) and (ii) of the Nasdaq listing standards). The Audit Committee held four meetings and acted through written consent in lieu of holding a meeting two times during 2025.

The board of directors determined that Mr. Watson qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert,” as defined in applicable SEC rules. The board of directors made a qualitative assessment of Mr. Watson’s level of knowledge and experience based on a number of factors, including Mr. Watson’s over 40 years of experience in public accounting and auditing and status as a Certified Public Accountant.

The primary purpose of the Audit Committee is to discharge the responsibilities of the board of directors with respect to our accounting, financial, and other reporting and internal control practices and to oversee its independent registered accounting firm. Specific responsibilities of the Audit Committee include:

●	selecting a qualified firm to serve as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements;

●	reviewing cyber risk on a quarterly basis and reporting to the board of directors;

●

obtaining and reviewing a report by the independent registered public accounting firm at least annually, that describes the independent auditor’s internal quality control procedures, any material issues with such procedures, and any steps taken to deal with such issues when required by applicable law, as well as all relationships between the independent auditor and the Company or any of its subsidiaries; and

●	approving (or, as permitted, pre-approving) all audit and all permissible non-audit services, other than de minimis non-audit services, to be performed by the independent registered public accounting firm.

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

The Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2025 with Vaxart’s management. The Audit Committee discussed with Vaxart’s independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the SEC. The Audit Committee also received the written disclosures and the letter from Vaxart’s independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the accounting firm’s independence. Based on the foregoing, the Audit Committee recommended to the board of directors that the audited financial statements be included in Vaxart’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

Respectfully submitted by the members of the Audit Committee:

Compensation Committee Processes and Procedures

Typically, the Compensation Committee will meet at least twice annually and with greater frequency if necessary. The agenda for each meeting is usually developed by the Chair of the Compensation Committee, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee meets regularly in executive session. However, from time to time, various members of management and other employees as well as outside advisors or consultants may be invited by the Compensation Committee to make presentations, to provide financial or other background information or advice, or to otherwise participate in Compensation Committee meetings. Our Chief Executive Officer may not participate in, or be present during, any deliberations or determinations of the Compensation Committee regarding his or her compensation. The charter of the Compensation Committee grants the Compensation Committee full access to all books, records, facilities, and personnel of the Company.

The Compensation Committee charter authorizes the Compensation Committee to delegate authority to one or more members of the Compensation Committee or to one or more executive officers of the Company, and to form and delegate authority to one or more subcommittees and to one or more committees of executive officers of the Company for any purpose that the Compensation Committee deems appropriate, except that the Compensation Committee may not delegate authority to approve compensation for the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or other officers of the Company subject to the reporting requirements under Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act, unless such delegation is to a subcommittee consisting of at least two members of the Compensation Committee.

In addition, under its charter, the Compensation Committee has the authority to obtain, at the expense of the Company, advice and assistance from compensation consultants and internal and external legal, accounting or other advisors and other external resources that the Compensation Committee considers necessary or appropriate in the performance of its duties. During 2025, the Compensation Committee approved the continued engagement of Aon Consulting, Inc. (“Aon”) to provide advisory services on various aspects of the Company’s compensation practices. In fiscal year 2025, the aggregate fees paid to Aon for all services totaled $201,046, of which $153,149 has been expended for insurance brokerage-related services performed at the recommendation of management.

The Compensation Committee has direct responsibility for the oversight of the work of any consultants or advisers engaged for the purpose of advising the Compensation Committee. In particular, the Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain, in its sole discretion, compensation consultants to assist in its evaluation of executive and director compensation, including the authority to approve the consultant’s reasonable fees and other retention terms. Under its charter, the Compensation Committee may select, or receive advice from, a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser to the Compensation Committee, other than in-house legal counsel and certain other types of advisers, only after taking into consideration six factors, prescribed by the SEC and Nasdaq, that bear upon the adviser’s independence; however, there is no requirement that any adviser be independent.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The members of our Nominating and Governance Committee are Mr. Kevin P. Finney, Dr. Heron, and Dr. Wheadon. Dr. Heron serves as Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee. Each of the members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are independent (as independence is currently defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the Nasdaq listing standards). The Nominating and Governance Committee held four meetings and acted by written consent in lieu of holding meetings one time during 2025. Specific responsibilities of the Nominating and Governance Committee include:

●	identifying, evaluating and selecting, or recommending that the board of directors approve, nominees for election to the board of directors;

●	overseeing the annual evaluation of the effectiveness and performance of the board of directors, and periodically conducting an individual evaluation of each director;

●	considering and making recommendations to the board of directors regarding the composition of the committees of the board of directors;

●	reviewing developments in corporate governance practices;

●	evaluating the adequacy of corporate governance practices and reporting;

●	reviewing succession plans for key executive officers;

●	developing and making recommendations to the board of directors regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters;

●	assisting in overseeing and monitoring the Company’s approach and strategy relating to environmental, legal and social responsibility, diversity, and other corporate citizenship and sustainability matters; and

●	overseeing an annual evaluation of the board of directors’ performance.

The Nominating and Governance Committee believes that candidates for director should have certain minimum qualifications, including the ability to read and understand basic financial statements, being over 21 years of age and having the highest personal integrity and ethics. The Nominating and Governance Committee also intends to consider such factors as possessing relevant expertise upon which to be able to offer advice and guidance to management, having sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Company, demonstrated excellence in his or her field, having the ability to exercise sound business judgment and having the commitment to rigorously represent the long-term interests of our stockholders. However, the Nominating and Governance Committee retains the right to modify these qualifications from time to time. Candidates for director nominees are reviewed in the context of the current composition of the board of directors, the operating requirements of the Company and the long-term interests of stockholders. In conducting this assessment, the Nominating and Governance Committee typically considers diversity, age, skills, and such other factors as it deems appropriate, given the current needs of the board and the Company, to maintain a balance of knowledge, experience, and capability.

In the case of incumbent directors whose terms of office are set to expire, the Nominating and Governance Committee reviews these directors’ overall service to Vaxart during their terms, including the number of meetings attended, level of participation, quality of performance and any other relationships and transactions that might impair the directors’ independence. The Nominating and Governance Committee also takes into account the results of the board of directors’ self-evaluation, conducted annually on a group and individual basis. In the case of new director candidates, the Nominating and Governance Committee also determines whether the nominee is independent for Nasdaq purposes, which determination is based upon applicable Nasdaq listing standards, applicable SEC rules and regulations, and the advice of counsel, if necessary. The Nominating and Governance Committee then uses its network of contacts to compile a list of potential candidates, but may also engage, if it deems appropriate, a professional search firm to identify director candidates. The Nominating and Governance Committee conducts any appropriate and necessary inquiries into the backgrounds and qualifications of possible candidates after considering the function and needs of the board of directors. The Nominating and Governance Committee meets to discuss and consider the candidates’ qualifications and then selects a nominee for recommendation to the board of directors by majority vote.

Table of Contents

The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider director candidates recommended by stockholders. The Nominating and Governance Committee does not intend to alter the manner in which it evaluates candidates, including the minimum criteria set forth above, based on whether or not the candidate was recommended by a stockholder. Stockholders who wish to recommend individuals for consideration by the Nominating and Governance Committee to become nominees for election to the board of directors may do so by delivering a written recommendation to the Nominating and Governance Committee at the following address: 310 Utah Avenue, Suite 150, South San Francisco, CA 94080. Submissions must include the full name of the proposed nominee, a description of the proposed nominee’s business experience for at least the previous five years, complete biographical information, a description of the proposed nominee’s qualifications as a director, and a representation that the nominating stockholder is a beneficial or record holder of Vaxart’s stock and has been a holder for at least one year. Any such submission must be accompanied by the written consent of the proposed nominee to be named as a nominee and to serve as a director if elected.

Stockholder Communications with the Board of Directors

Communications addressed to the board of directors will be reviewed by one or more Vaxart executive officers, who will determine whether the communication should be presented to the board of directors. The purpose of this screening is to allow the board of directors to avoid having to consider irrelevant or inappropriate communications (such as advertisements, solicitations, and hostile communications).

Communications to the board of directors must be sent in writing in care of our Corporate Secretary to our headquarters at 310 Utah Avenue, Suite 150, South San Francisco, CA 94080 or delivered via e-mail to ir@vaxart.com. All communications directed to the Audit Committee in accordance with our whistleblower policy that relate to questionable accounting or auditing matters involving Vaxart will be promptly and directly forwarded to the Audit Committee.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a Code of Conduct that applies to all officers, directors, and employees. The Code of Conduct is available on the Investors section of our website at http://www.vaxart.com. If we make any substantive amendments to the Code of Conduct or grant any waiver from a provision of the Code of Conduct to any executive officer or director, we will promptly disclose the nature of the amendment or waiver on our website.

Anti-Hedging/Pledging Policy

Our insider trading policy prohibits our directors, officers, and other employees, as well as consultants, contractors, advisors, and agents of the Company, from engaging in speculative trading activities, including hedging transactions (such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts) or other inherently speculative transactions with respect to our securities, and from pledging our securities as collateral for any loans.

Insider Trading Policies and Procedures

Our insider trading policy also prohibits such persons from purchasing or selling our securities while in possession of material nonpublic information and contains restrictions relating to pre-clearance procedures and blackout periods. Directors and employees are permitted to enter into trading plans that are intended to comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 of the Exchange Act. The insider trading policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and applicable listing standards.

While we have not adopted a formal policy governing transactions by the Company in its securities, we will not engage in transactions in Company securities, or adopt any securities repurchase plans, while in possession of material non-public information relating to the Company or its securities other than in compliance with applicable law, subject to the policies and procedures adopted by the Company.

Table of Contents

Compensation Recovery Policy

We adopted a Compensation Recovery Policy in October 2023, which applies to certain incentive compensation received by an executive officer on or after October 2, 2023 and which complies with the applicable requirements for compensation recovery (or “clawback”) policies adopted by the SEC and The Nasdaq Stock Market. Pursuant to the policy, if the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement of its financial statements due to the Company’s material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under the securities laws, including any required accounting restatement to correct an error in previously issued financial statements that is material to the previously issued financial statements, or that would result in a material misstatement if the error were corrected in the current period or left uncorrected in the current period, the Compensation Committee will cause the Company to recovery reasonably promptly, subject to certain exceptions, any erroneously awarded incentive compensation received by any covered executive officer during the three completed fiscal years immediately preceding the date on which the Company is required to prepare such an accounting restatement. Covered executive officers include both current and former executive officers.

Corporate Governance Guidelines

The board of directors has documented our governance practices by adopting Corporate Governance Principles to assure that the board of directors will have the necessary authority and practices in place to review and evaluate our business operations as needed and to make decisions that are independent of our management. The Corporate Governance Principles are also intended to align the interests of directors and management with those of our stockholders. The Corporate Governance Principles set forth the practices the board of directors intends to follow with respect to board composition and selection, board meetings and involvement of senior management, chief executive officer performance evaluation and succession planning, and board committees and compensation. The Corporate Governance Principles, as well as the charters for each committee of the board of directors, may be viewed on the Investors section of our website at http://www.vaxart.com.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires that our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of common stock and other equity securities of Vaxart. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the year ended December 31, 2025, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors, and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with, except that, each of Kevin Finney and W. Mark Watson filed one late Form 4 with respect to one transaction for each due to administrative oversight.

Elements of Total Direct Compensation

A brief summary of our total direct compensation - consisting of base salary, STI opportunities and LTI opportunities - for our named executive officers is set forth below.

Annual Base Salaries

We provide a base salary to retain and attract key executive talent and to align our compensation with market practices. Base salaries are reviewed and established by the Compensation Committee on a competitive basis each year to better align with market levels.

During the annual performance review process in February 2025, the Compensation Committee approved an 8.3% merit increase for Mr. Lo, a 6.7% merit increase for Dr. Cummings, and a 4.2% merit increase for Dr. Tucker, in each case effective January 1, 2025. These adjustments were intended to recognize each executive’s contributions to the Company and to align their base salary levels with the market data.

Table of Contents

For more information about the 2025 base salaries for each of our named executive officers, please refer to the “Salary” column of the 2025 Summary Compensation Table on page 12.

Short-Term Incentive Compensation

The STI program is designed to motivate our named executive officers to achieve annual business plan objectives and individual goals.

Each year the Compensation Committee establishes a STI award opportunity for our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee did not make any changes to the target STI award opportunities for Dr. Cummings and Dr. Tucker, which remained at 40% of their annual base salary. Mr. Lo’s target STI award opportunity was increased from 50% to 55% of his annual base salary, plus increased STI award payment for 2025 of an additional $49,500, resulted in effective STI award opportunity of 63%.

The 2025 STI payout levels were determined by the Compensation Committee based on an overall assessment of corporate performance and individual contributions. The Compensation Committee approved certain corporate goals and objectives at the beginning of the year that generally focused on deliverables with respect to four primary areas: finance (focus on the Company’s long-term viability), COVID-19 (relating to the partnership with BARDA for execution of the phase 2b trial), advancing the pipeline (generate preclinical and clinical data as well as enhance manufacturing capabilities), and operational excellence (maintain a culture of effectiveness, efficiency, compliance and strategic alignment across the enterprise).

Based on its assessment of overall corporate performance and the individual contributions of each participating executive, and its desire to retain a management team that is essential to our continued success, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the board of directors approved, an overall achievement level of 100% for the 2025 STI program, which funded a bonus pool that was allocated among the named executive officers based on recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer (other than with respect to himself) and final approval by the board of directors. The 2025 STI payouts were as follows: $407,000 for Mr. Lo; $210,000 for Dr. Cummings; and $180,000 for Dr. Tucker.

2024 Trial Launch Bonus Program

In February 2024, the board of directors, upon the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, approved a $1,000,000 bonus pool under a Trial Launch Bonus Program, that would be allocated and payable to each employee selected by the Chief Executive Officer (including Dr. Cummings and Dr. Tucker). Under this program, each of Dr. Cummings and Dr. Tucker were eligible to a pro-rata share of the bonus pool equal to 30% of his annual salary as in effect as of December 31, 2023, if he remained employed through the date that the first 1,000 volunteers in the Phase 2 trial had been dosed, which occurred on June 16, 2025. Dr. Cummings received a payout of $45,498 and Dr. Tucker received a payout of $43,114 under this program.

Spot Bonus

On March 5, 2025, the board of directors approved a spot bonus grant of a stock option to purchase 50,000 shares to Dr. Cummings to recognize his performance that shall vest as to 25% of the underlying shares of common stock on the first anniversary of the grant date and thereafter in thirty-six (36) equal monthly installments.

On December 4, 2025, the board of directors approved a spot bonus for Mr. Lo in the amount of $56,000 to reflect his leadership with respect to the Phase 2 trial and the licensing agreement with Dynavax. In lieu of cash, this spot bonus was paid to Mr. Lo in December 2025= by the issuance of fully vested restricted stock unit grant of 151,351 shares of common stock of equivalent value.

Long-Term Incentives

The Compensation Committee believes that a competitive LTI program is an important component of total direct compensation because it: (i) enhances the retentive value of our compensation; (ii) rewards executives for increasing our stock price and developing long-term value; and (iii) provides executives with an opportunity for stock ownership to align their interests with those of our stockholders.

Table of Contents

During the annual performance review process in 2025, the Compensation Committee, with the help of Aon, its independent compensation consultant, conducted a review of the LTI award opportunities for our officers. The Compensation Committee recommended, and the board of directors approved, a grant to (i) Mr. Lo of a stock option to purchase 2,108,000 shares and a restricted stock unit award covering 1,405,000 shares; (ii) to each of Dr. Cummings and Dr. Tucker, a stock option to purchase 610,000 shares and a restricted stock unit award covering 406,000 shares. Each stock option vests one-fourth on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and thereafter in equal monthly installments over the next three years, and each restricted stock unit award vests in four equal annual installments. In addition, during the annual performance review process in 2025, and as part of an “officer recognition program”, the board of directors approved a one-time recognition award to Dr. Cummings of a stock option to purchase 50,000 shares to recognize his performance in securing the BARDA award, which vests one-fourth on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and thereafter in equal monthly installments over the next three years.

Additional Compensation Arrangements

Severance Benefit Plan

During 2025, each of the named executive officers participated in the Severance Benefit Plan (the “Severance Plan”).

Under the Severance Plan, if a participating named executive officer were terminated other than for cause, death or disability, or resigned for good reason, other than in connection with a change in control, he would be entitled to receive (i) continued payment of base salary for six months (twelve months for Mr. Lo), and (ii) the portion of health insurance premiums paid by the Company, prior to the termination, under our group health insurance plans as provided under COBRA, until the end of the applicable salary continuation period (or, if earlier, such time as the named executive officer is eligible for health insurance coverage with a subsequent employer).

If a participating named executive officer were terminated other than for cause, death or disability, or resigned for good reason, either during the three months before or in the twelve months after a change in control, then he would be entitled to receive (in lieu of the benefits described above): (i) lump sum cash severance equal twelve months of base salary, (ii) the portion of health insurance premiums paid by the Company, prior to the termination, under our group health insurance plans as provided under COBRA, until the end of the applicable salary continuation period (or, if earlier, such time as the named executive officer is eligible for health insurance coverage with a subsequent employer), (iii) full vesting of any unvested time-based equity awards, and (iv) a pro-rated target annual bonus for the year of termination.

In exchange for the severance benefits, the participating named executive officers must agree to comply with the Company’s standard employee invention assignment and confidentiality agreement, return all company property, and sign a release of claims in favor of the Company.

For purposes of the Severance Plan, the term “cause” generally means (i) engaging in willful or gross misconduct or willful or gross neglect; (ii) the commission of a felony or a crime involving any of the following: moral turpitude, dishonesty, breach of trust or unethical business conduct; or the commission of any crime involving the Company or any of its subsidiaries; (iii) fraud, misappropriation or embezzlement; or (iv) the abuse of illegal drugs or other controlled substances or habitual intoxication while providing services for the Company or any of its affiliates.

The term “good reason” generally means the occurrence of any of the following events without the participant’s consent; (i) a material diminution in base salary or target bonus; (ii) a material diminution in authority, duties, or responsibilities; or (iii) a relocation of the principal place of employment or service to a location that increases his or her one-way commute distance by more than 35 miles, subject to applicable notice and cure provisions.

The Severance Plan does not provide a tax gross‐up for named executive officers or any other employees in the event they are subject to golden parachute excise taxes on severance or other payments received in connection with a change in control. The Severance Plan promotes retention incentives for our executives by establishing severance protections for participants that are consistent with market levels, while eliminating the need to negotiate individual severance agreements in connection with an executive’s termination or at the time of hire. The enhanced benefits available upon a change in control increase our retention incentives by reducing the personal uncertainty that arises from the possibility of a future business combination and promoting objectivity in the evaluation of transactions that are in the best interests of our stockholders.

In connection with his appointment as Vice President, Research and Director of Immunology, Dr. Tucker entered into a letter agreement with the Company, dated as of May 20, 2006. The letter agreement provided that, if Dr. Tucker’s employment were terminated without “cause”, or he voluntarily resigned for “good reason”, then one-half of his then outstanding and unvested stock options shall vest and become immediately exercisable, except that if there are fewer than one-half of the option shares unvested at that time, then all remaining unvested option shares would vest and become immediately exercisable. During the term of his employment, Dr. Tucker agreed that he would not render any commercial or professional services of any nature to any person or organization, whether or not for compensation, without the prior written consent of the board of directors. He also agreed not to directly or indirectly engage or participate in any business that is competitive with the Company's business.

Retirement Plan

We maintain a tax-qualified retirement plan that provides eligible employees, including our named executive officers, with an opportunity to save for retirement on a tax-advantaged basis. Eligible employees may defer eligible compensation up to certain tax code limits, which are updated annually. Employees are immediately and fully vested in their own contributions. We make matching contributions to participants in the 401(k) plan annually in arrears in an amount equal to the employee’s deferral up to a maximum of 3% of the employee’s annual eligible earnings, which are immediately and fully vested. As a tax-qualified retirement plan, contributions to the 401(k) plan are deductible by us when made, and contributions and earnings on those amounts are not taxable to the employees until withdrawn or distributed from the 401(k) plan. The named executive officers did not participate in, or otherwise receive any benefits under any pension plan or nonqualified deferred compensation plan.

Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Certain Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information

While we do not have a formal written policy in place with regard to the timing of awards of options in relation to the disclosure of material nonpublic information, our board of directors and the Compensation Committee do not seek to time equity grants to take advantage of information, either positive or negative, about our company that has not been publicly disclosed. Similarly, it is our practice not to time the release of material nonpublic information based on equity award grant dates or for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

During 2025, we did not grant any stock options to a named executive officer in the period beginning four business days before the filing of a periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of a current report on Form 8-K that discloses material nonpublic information, and ending one business day after the filing or furnishing of such a report.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

During 2025, our non-employee directors were compensated in the following manner under our director compensation program.

The Company’s director compensation program is designed to enhance our ability to attract and retain highly qualified directors and to align their interests with the long-term interests of its stockholders. The program includes a cash component, which is intended to compensate non-employee directors for their service on our board of directors and an equity component, which is intended to align the interests of non-employee directors and stockholders. Directors who are employees of the Company receive no additional compensation for their service on our board of directors.

The Compensation Committee annually reviews compensation paid to our non-employee directors and makes recommendations for adjustments, as appropriate, to the full board of directors. As part of this annual review, the Compensation Committee considers the significant time commitment and skill level required by each non-employee director in serving on our board of directors and its various committees. The Compensation Committee seeks to maintain a market competitive director compensation program and, with the assistance of its independent compensation consultant, benchmarks our director compensation program against those maintained by the peer group we use to evaluate our executive compensation program.

Under the director compensation program for 2025, our non-employee directors received the following cash compensation for their service on our board of directors and its committees:

●	$40,000 annual cash retainer;

●	$30,000 for the Chair of the board of directors;

●	$25,000 for the Lead Director of the board of directors;

●	$20,000 for the chair of the Audit Committee and $10,000 for each of its other members;

●	$12,000 for the chair of the Compensation Committee, and $6,000 for each of its other members;

●	$10,000 for the chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee, and $5,000 for each of its other members; and

●	$15,000 for the chair of the Science and Technology Committee, and $7,500 for each of its other members.

Table of Contents

In addition, each non-employee director who is initially elected or appointed to the board after the effective date of the program shall automatically be granted on the day of such first election or appointment: (i) a stock option to purchase 190,800 shares of our shares of common stock, and (ii) a RSU award covering 32,000 shares of our common stock (the “Initial Award”). Each Initial Award shall vest and become exercisable in substantially equal installments on each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, subject to the non-employee director continuing in service on the board through each such vesting date.

A non-employee director who is serving on the board as of the date of any annual meeting after the effective date of the program, and who will continue to serve as a non-employee director immediately following such meeting, shall automatically be granted on the date of such annual meeting: (i) a stock option to purchase 95,400 shares of our common stock, and (ii) a RSU award covering 16,000 shares of our common stock (the “Annual Award”), which amounts are pro-rated for new directors to reflect their service since the last annual meeting. Each Annual Award shall vest and become exercisable on the earlier of (x) the first anniversary of the date of grant, or (y) the date immediately prior to the next annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders following the date of grant, subject to the non-employee director continuing in service on the board through such vesting date.

Upon a change in control, all outstanding equity awards that are held by a non-employee director shall become fully vested and exercisable.

Dr. Wheadon has devoted, and continues to devote, significant time assisting and advising the Company, in his capacity as a member of the board, on regulatory, pipeline optimization, and clinical development strategies and his time commitment on these projects has significantly exceeded, and will continue to exceed, what is reasonably expected of a member of the board. On March 5, 2025, the board of directors compensated Dr. Wheadon for his additional services as a member of the board with an additional one-time cash retainer of $20,000.

Dr. Michael J. Finney retired as a director on September 30, 2025. In connection with Dr. Michael J. Finney’s retirement, and as a special recognition of his prior service and significant contributions, the board of directors (i) accelerated the vesting of Dr. Michael J. Finney’s outstanding stock options and restricted stock units, and (ii) extended the post-termination exercise period for each of Dr. Michael J. Finney’s outstanding and vested stock options until the earlier of the second anniversary of the effective date of his retirement, or the expiration of the stated 10-year term of the stock option.²

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Related-Party Transaction Policy and Procedures

We have adopted a written Related Party Transaction Policy that sets forth our policies and procedures regarding the identification, review, consideration and approval or ratification of “related party transactions.” For purposes of our policy only, a “related party transaction” is a transaction, arrangement or relationship (including indebtedness or a guarantee of indebtedness) or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships in which we and any “related party” are, were or will be participants involving an amount that exceeds $120,000 and in which any “related party” has a direct or indirect material interest. Certain types of related party transactions are deemed to be pre-approved or ratified, as applicable, including: (i) the payment of compensation by us to our executive officers or directors; and (ii) a transaction where the related party’s interest arises solely from the ownership of a class of equity securities of the Company and all holders of that class of equity securities received the same benefit on a pro rata basis. A related party is any executive officer, director, nominee to become a director or more than 5% stockholder of us, including any of their immediate family members, and any entity owned or controlled by such persons. We describe below such transactions or series of similar transactions to which we have been or were a party since January 1, 2024.

Under the policy, where a transaction has been identified as a related party transaction, management must present information regarding the proposed related party transaction to the Audit Committee (or, where Audit Committee approval would be inappropriate, to another independent body of the board of directors) for consideration and approval or ratification. The presentation must include a description of, among other things, the material facts, the interests, direct and indirect, of the related parties, the benefits to us of the transaction and whether any alternative transactions were available. To identify related party transactions in advance, we rely on information supplied by our executive officers, directors and certain significant stockholders. In considering related party transactions, the Audit Committee takes into account the relevant available facts and circumstances including, but not limited to (a) the risks, costs and benefits to us, (b) the impact on a director’s independence in the event the related party is a director, immediate family member of a director or an entity with which a director is affiliated, (c) the terms of the transaction, (d) the availability of other sources for comparable services or products and (e) the terms available to or from, as the case may be, unrelated third parties or to or from employees generally. In the event a director has an interest in the proposed transaction, the director must recuse himself or herself from the deliberations and approval. The policy requires that, in determining whether to approve, ratify or reject a related party transaction, the Audit Committee consider, in light of known circumstances, whether the transaction is in, or is not inconsistent with, the best interests of us and our stockholders, as the Audit Committee determines in the good faith exercise of its discretion.

Certain Related-Person Transactions

Indemnity Agreements

We have entered into indemnity agreements with our executive officers and directors which provide, among other things, that we will indemnify and advance expenses incurred in connection with certain actions, suits or proceedings to such officer or director, under the circumstances and to the extent provided for therein, for expenses, damages, judgments, fines and settlements he or she may be required to pay in actions or proceedings which he or she is or may be made a party by reason of his or her position as a director, officer or other agent of the Company, and otherwise to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law and our Bylaws.

Letter Agreements

We have entered into letter agreements, employment agreements and change in control arrangements with our executive officers. For more information regarding these agreements, see the “Executive Compensation” section of this annual report.

On January 31, 2024, we entered into a Separation Agreement with Mr. Floroiu, our former President and Chief Executive Officer. For a description of Mr. Floroiu’s separation arrangements, see the “Executive Compensation - Additional Compensation Arrangements” section of this annual report.

Equity Grants

We have granted stock options to our executive officers and members of our board of directors. For a description of our executive officers’ options, see the “Executive Compensation - Outstanding Equity Awards as of December 31, 2025” section of this annual report.

(1)

Audit Fees consisted of fees for professional services rendered for the audits of our financial statements, including the audits of our annual financial statements and reviews of our interim quarterly reports, and services provided in connection with SEC filings, including consents and comfort letters.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy and procedures for the pre-approval of audit and non-audit services rendered by our independent registered public accounting firm, WithumSmith+Brown, PC. The policy generally pre-approves specified services in the defined categories of audit services, audit-related services and tax services up to specified amounts. Pre-approval may also be given as part of the Audit Committee’s approval of the scope of the engagement of the independent auditor or on an individual, explicit, case-by-case basis before the independent auditor is engaged to provide each service. The pre-approval of services may be delegated to one or more of the Audit Committee’s members, but the decision must be reported to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of services other than audit services by WithumSmith+Brown, PC is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

All services rendered by WithumSmith+Brown, PC for the year ended December 31, 2025 were pre-approved in accordance with the policies set forth above.
