Reconstitution of Director Classes

 

On February 18, 2016, solely in order to provide for a nearly equal apportionment of the members of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of GTx, Inc. (the “Company”) among the three classes of the Company’s classified Board, as required by the Company’s charter documents, Marc S. Hanover tendered his resignation from the Board as a director of the class whose term of office expires at the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (a “Class II director”), with such resignation effective immediately, and, with the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, was re-elected to the Board as a Class I director immediately thereafter. After giving effect to Mr. Hanover’s resignation and immediate re-election to the Board, there are now two Class I directors (whose term of office expires at the Company’s 2017 Annual Meeting of Stockholders), two Class II directors (whose term of office expires at the Company’s 2018 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders) and two Class III directors (whose term of office expires at the Company’s 2016 Annual Meeting of the Stockholders). The reallocation of Mr. Hanover from one class of directors to another class of directors had no effect on any aspect of his employment relationship or compensatory arrangements with the Company, and he continues to serve as the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.
