EXPLANATORY NOTE

Interpace Diagnostics Group, Inc. (“Interpace,” the “Company,” “we”, “us” or “our”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 10-K (this “Amendment”) to amend its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, which was originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 31, 2017 (the “Original Filing”).

We are filing this Amendment solely for the purpose of including in Part III the information that was to be incorporated by reference from the Company’s definitive proxy statement for its 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders because the Company’s definitive proxy statement will not be filed with the SEC within 120 days after the end of the Company’s fiscal year ended December 31, 2016. This Amendment amends and restates in its entirety Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III and amends and restates in its entirety Part IV of the Original Filing to include the prior exhibits and additional certifications required of the principal executive officer and principal financial officer under Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Because no financial statements are contained within this Amendment, we are not including new certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

Except as described above, no other changes have been made to the Original Filing and the Original Filing continues to speak as of the date of the Original Filing. Except as expressly set forth herein, this Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the date of the Original Filing or modify or update any of the other disclosures contained therein in any way other than as required to reflect the amendments discussed above.  Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and the Company’s other filings with the SEC.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee is currently comprised of Dr. Keegan (Chairperson) and Mr. Sullivan. The primary purposes of our Audit Committee are to assist the Board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations with respect to matters involving the accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal control, legal compliance and risk management functions of the Company, including, without limitation, assisting the Board’s oversight of: (i) the integrity of our financial statements; (ii) the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting; (iii) our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; (iv) the qualifications and independence of our independent registered public accounting firm; and (v) the performance of our internal audit function and independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit Committee is also responsible for preparing the report of the Audit Committee required by the rules and regulations of the SEC for inclusion in our annual proxy statement.

Our Board has determined that each member of our Audit Committee is independent within the meaning of the rules of NASDAQ and as required by the Audit Committee charter. Our Board has determined that the chairperson of the Audit Committee, Dr. Keegan, is an “audit committee financial expert,” as that term is defined in Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

As previously disclosed in our Current Report on Form 8-K dated October 5, 2016, Heinrich Dreismann, Ph.D, a member of our Board who was also a member of our Audit Committee resigned effective as of September 30, 2016. As a result, we are not currently in compliance with NASDAQ Listing Rule 5605(c)(2)(A), which requires the Audit Committee be comprised of at least three members. We intend to appoint an additional independent director to our Board and to the Audit Committee prior to the end of the applicable cure period which is the sooner of the Company’s annual meeting or October 2, 2017.

Our Audit Committee charter is posted and can be viewed in the “Investor Relations” section of our website at www.interpacediagnostics.com.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than ten percent (10%) of our common stock, to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%) stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

To the best of our knowledge, based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us, or written representations that no other forms were required, we believe that all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent (10%) stockholders were complied with during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016.

Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table

Base Salary

Base salaries are set with regard to the level of the executive officer’s position within the Company and the individual’s current and historical performance. The base salary levels and any changes to those levels for each executive are reviewed each year by the Compensation Committee (and in the case of the Chief Executive Officer, by the full Board), and adjustments may be based on factors such as new roles and/or responsibilities assumed by the executive and the executive’s impact on our strategic goals and financial performance. While our executives’ base salaries are generally targeted to be consistent with median base salaries for similar positions based on competitive market data, there is no specific weighting applied to any one factor in setting the level of salary, and the process ultimately relies on the evaluation of various factors considered by the Compensation Committee with respect to each named executive officer (and the full Board, in the case of the Chief Executive Officer). The Compensation Committee also takes into account additional factors such as historical compensation, the financial condition of the Company in general and the individual’s potential to be a key contributor as well as special recruiting and retention situations.

Upon his appointment as our Interim Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Stover’s annual base salary was set at $300,000, which was not subject of an employment agreement. Mr. Stover entered into an employment agreement with the Company as President & Chief Executive Officer on October 28, 2016. Mr. Miao’s base salary was $420,000 and Mr. Krishnamurti’s base salary was $250,000. Mr. Krishnamurti’s base salary was reduced to $210,000 in March 2016 as part of the Company’s cost-cutting measures. There were no raises issued to any executive officers in 2016.

Annual Cash Incentives

The annual cash incentive program provides our executive officers with an opportunity to receive a cash award at the discretion of the Compensation Committee (and the full Board as to the Chief Executive Officer). Annual cash incentive targets and performance metrics are usually determined by the Compensation Committee (and the full Board, as to the Chief Executive Officer) during the first quarter of each fiscal year, based on competitive market data generally available to the Compensation Committee as well as consideration based upon the financial condition of the Company.

In connection with Mr. Stover’s appointment as Interim Chief Executive Officer, the Board approved a target annual cash bonus of 50% of his annual base salary based principally upon meeting specific financial goals and objectives as recommended by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board in its sole discretion. Mr. Stover had $50,000 paid to him in 2016 for meeting targets regarding the first two quarters of 2016. For the final two quarters of 2016, the Board determined that Mr. Stover met applicable targets and awarded a cash bonus of $77,500, whose payment was made in 2017. The remainder of his 2016 bonus was paid in April 2017. Mr. Miao’s target annual cash incentive was 50% of base salary and Mr. Krishnamurti’s target was 30% of base salary. Because of their respective terminations of employment, neither Mr. Miao nor Mr. Krishnamurti received any bonus for 2016.

Mr. Stover, upon the occurrence of a capital raising “Transaction” (as such term is defined in Mr. Stover’s employment agreement) is eligible to receive non-equity incentive compensation calculated based on 3% of the net transaction proceeds received in connection with such a Transaction.  In order to receive such non-equity incentive compensation, Mr. Stover must remain employed through the closing of the related Transaction.  As a result of our stock offering in December 2016 (which constituted a “Transaction” under his employment agreement), Mr. Stover earned $50,719.  Additionally, the Board awarded Mr. Stover a discretionary bonus of $127,500 (including the $50,000 bonus described in the paragraph above) for 2016, based on the Board’s determination of Mr. Stover’s and the Company’s performance in 2016.

Sign-on bonuses may be granted from time to time at the discretion of our Compensation Committee in connection with new hires at the executive officer level. There were no cash sign-on bonuses for any named executive officer in 2016.

Table of Contents

Long-Term Equity Incentives

Our executives are also eligible to participate in a long-term equity incentive program each year, which is administered under our Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Incentive Plan. The long-term equity incentive component of our compensation program is used to promote alignment with stockholders and to balance the short-term focus of the annual cash incentive component by linking a substantial part of compensation to our long-term stockholder returns. The Compensation Committee believes that long-term stock-based compensation enhances our ability to attract and retain high quality talent and provides the motivation to improve our long-term financial performance and increase stockholder value. In 2016, Mr. Stover was granted 10,000 restricted stock units (“RSUs”), which vest in equal installments over a three-year period. Mr. Stover was also granted 32,636 stock options with an exercise price of $1.60. The options vest in equal monthly installments over a one-year period. Mr. Krishnamurti was granted 6,000 RSUs in 2016 which vest in equal installments over a three-year period. The RSUs were forfeited upon Mr. Krishnamurti’s termination from the Company on September 2, 2016.

Perquisites

As a matter of practice, we provide only limited perquisites to our executive officers that are not generally provided to all employees. Executives are eligible for the standard benefits and programs generally available to all of our employees. The value of special perquisites, as well as additional benefits that are available generally to all of our employees, that were provided to each named executive officer in 2016 are set forth in footnote 3 to the Summary Compensation Table.

Compensation Features Intended to Prevent Excessive Risk Taking 

The Compensation Committee reviewed our compensation policies and practices for all employees, including executive officers, and believes that such policies and practices do not create risks that are reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us. In particular, the Compensation Committee believes that the following factors help mitigate against any such risks: (a) annual cash incentive compensation and long-term equity incentive compensation are based on a mix of our overall performance, business unit performance and individual performance; (b) the annual cash incentive compensation plan has no minimum funding levels, such that employees will not receive any rewards if satisfactory financial performance is not achieved by us; and (c) base salaries are consistent with employees’ responsibilities and general market practices so that they are not motivated to take excessive risks to achieve a reasonable level of financial security.

Outstanding Equity Awards

The following table provides information concerning the number and value of unexercised options, SARs, restricted stock awards and RSUs for the named executive officers outstanding as of the year ended December 31, 2016:

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control 

The following table includes the original estimated amount of compensation payable to Mr. Miao upon termination of his employment in accordance with his employment separation agreements. In general: (i) RSUs vest upon a change of control; and (ii) restricted stock vests upon a change of control. The amounts shown below assume that such termination was effective as of December 31, 2016, and are estimates of the amounts which would be paid out upon termination; however, with respect to Mr. Miao, the amount shown for him is based on his contractual severance at the time of his actual termination of employment. The actual amounts to be paid out can only be determined at the time of separation from the Company.

⁽¹⁾ These amounts are based on the value of RSUs held at December 31, 2016 that would become immediately vested upon retirement or a change of control pursuant to the applicable restricted stock grant agreement. Stock options that would become immediately vested upon a change in control pursuant to the Amended and Restated 2004 Stock Award and Incentive Plan were included. The market value of all equity reflected in the above table is based on the closing stock price of $4.40 on December 30, 2016, the last day of trading in 2016.

⁽²⁾ Mr. Stover’s cash payment would be paid in nine equal monthly installments.

⁽³⁾ Mr. Miao’s employment was terminated on March 1, 2016 and he was entitled to receive the amounts and benefits upon such termination as discussed below. The Company reached agreement with Mr. Miao and four other former executives to accept 35% of their contracted severance amount. The $420,000 lump sum payment for Mr. Miao was subsequently reduced to $147,000 as a result of this agreement and was paid on February 27, 2017.

The amounts shown in the table above do not include payments and benefits to the extent they are provided on a non-discriminatory basis to salaried employees generally upon termination, including accrued vacation pay, distributions of plan balances under the 401(k) plan and payments of amounts under disability insurance policies.

Below is a summary of all employment separation agreements that were in effect during all or a portion of 2015 for our named executive officers.

The offer letter provided that Mr. Miao was entitled to participate in long-term equity incentive awards plans, pursuant to which he is eligible to receive grants of RSUs and SARs with an aggregate grant date value of up to $300,000. All service-based long-term incentive awards would immediately vest upon the occurrence of a change in control.

•     A payment equal to the average cash incentive compensation paid to him based on the three most recent years (or such lesser period of actual employment); and

For purposes of Mr. Miao’s employment separation agreement:

“Cause” generally means: (1) Mr. Miao’s failure to use his best efforts to achieve his goals that is not timely cured; (2) Mr. Miao’s failure to comply with the reasonable instructions of our Board; (3) a material breach by Mr. Miao of the terms of his separation agreement that is not timely cured; (4) Mr. Miao’s failure to adhere to our documented policies and procedures; (5) Mr. Miao’s failure to adhere to moral and ethical business principles; (6) breach by Mr. Miao of the terms of any confidentiality, non-solicitation and/or covenant not to compete agreement; (7) Mr. Miao’s conviction of a criminal offense; (7) any documented act of material dishonesty or fraud by Mr. Miao in the commission of his duties; or (8) misconduct by Mr. Miao that results in a misstatement of our financial statements due to material non-compliance with financial reporting requirements under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

“Good Reason” generally means: (1) the failure to pay Mr. Miao any material amount of compensation that is due and payable; (2) a material reduction in Mr. Miao’s annual base salary; (3) the relocation of Mr. Miao’s principal place of employment to a location more than 50 miles from Mr. Miao’s current principal place of employment; (4) a material adverse alteration of Mr. Miao’s duties and responsibilities; (5) an intentional, material reduction of Mr. Miao’s aggregate target incentive awards under any incentive plans; or (6) in connection with a change in control, the material failure to maintain Mr. Miao’s relative level of coverage under its employee benefit plans.

On March 28, 2016, the Company, in connection with Mr. Miao’s termination of employment, entered into a severance agreement and general release with Mr. Miao which implemented certain terms of the employment separation agreement effective October 20, 2014. This severance agreement and general release provided for certain severance benefits to Mr. Miao, including the following: (a) a lump sum cash severance payment of $420,000 in September 2016, which is equal to 12 months’ base salary and (b) 12 months of continued medical coverage at the Company’s expense. Mr. Miao will be subject to confidentiality, non-solicitation and non-competition obligations. The Company and Mr. Miao also mutually released each other from all claims. As stated above, pursuant to a settlement agreement, Mr. Miao agreed to accept 35% of this $420,000 contracted severance amount. Accordingly, the Company paid Mr. Miao $147,000 in full settlement of this amount on February 27, 2017.

On October 11, 2016, James Early was appointed as Chief Financial Officer for the Company by means of an Engagement Letter Agreement executed between the Company and Early Financial Consulting, LLC. Professional fees under this agreement are charged at the hourly rate of $250 per hour for the first 30 hours per week and $200 per hour for time in excess of 30 hours per week Fees and travel expenses must be invoiced weekly under fifteen day payment terms. Services may be suspended if payments are deemed delinquent, and either party may terminate the agreement upon thirty days written notice. Either party may terminate the agreement (and Mr. Early’s service thereunder) upon 30 days’ notice with no severance or other termination payments due.

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS, AND DIRECTOR INDEPENDENCE

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

We are required to disclose transactions since January 1, 2016, to which we have been a party, in which the amount involved in the transaction exceeds $120,000, and in which any of our directors, executive officers or, to our knowledge, beneficial owners of more than 5% of our capital stock or an affiliate or immediate family member thereof had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, other than employment, compensation, termination and change in control arrangements with our named executive officers, which are described in Item 11 - “Executive Compensation.” We are not a party to a current transaction with a related person, have not been a party to such a transaction since January 1, 2016, and no transaction is currently proposed, in which the amount of the transaction exceeds $120,000 and in which a related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Table of Contents

The Nominating Committee has responsibility for reviewing and approving or disapproving all proposed related person transactions, including all transactions required to be disclosed by applicable SEC disclosure rules. When reviewing and evaluating a related person transaction, the Nominating Committee may consider, among other things, any effect a transaction may have upon a director’s independence, whether the transaction involves terms and conditions that are no less favorable to us than those that could be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated third party, the commercial reasonableness of the transaction, the benefit of the transaction to us and any other matters the Nominating Committee deems appropriate. Our management will notify the Nominating Committee of new proposed related party transactions of which they become aware and any material changes to any previously approved or ratified related party transactions. The Nominating Committee will coordinate with the Audit Committee, which retains responsibility under its charter for the proper disclosure of any such transactions under applicable SEC disclosure rules.

Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services

Under its charter, the Audit Committee must pre-approve all engagements of our independent registered public accounting firm unless an exception to such pre-approval exists under the Exchange Act or the rules of the SEC. Each year, the independent registered public accounting firm’s retention to audit our financial statements and permissible non-audit services, including the associated fees, is approved by the Audit Committee. At the beginning of each fiscal year, the Audit Committee evaluates other known potential engagements of the independent registered public accounting firm, in light of the scope of the work proposed to be performed and the proposed fees, and approves or rejects each service, taking into account whether the services are permissible under applicable law and the possible impact of each non-audit service on the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. At subsequent Audit Committee meetings, the Audit Committee receives updates on the services actually provided by the independent registered public accounting firm, and management may present additional services for approval. Typically, these would be services, such as due diligence for an acquisition, that were not known at the beginning of the year. The Audit Committee has delegated to the Chairperson of the Audit Committee the authority to evaluate and approve engagements on behalf of the Audit Committee in the event that a need arises for pre-approval between committee meetings. If the Chairperson so approves any such engagements, he will report that approval to the full Audit Committee at the next Audit Committee meeting. All of the services and corresponding fees described above were approved by the Audit Committee.
