NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 17, 2024

Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Bone Biologics Corporation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 (the “Annual Meeting”), to be held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern Time on Tuesday, September 17, 2024 at Bone Biologics Corporation offices, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803. Stockholders may also listen to the Annual Meeting via telephone at 520-525-8845. Directions to our corporate headquarters are available at www.bonebiologics.com.

The Annual Meeting is being held for the following purposes, which are more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement:

● To elect four directors to our Board of Directors;

● To approve, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation;

● To ratify the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A., as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; and

● To transact any other business as may properly come before the meeting or at any adjournment thereof.

Our Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on July 19, 2024 as the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. Only our stockholders of record at the close of business on that date will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting or any adjournments or postponements thereof.

We are pleased to take advantage of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s “e-proxy” rules that allow public companies to furnish proxy materials to stockholders via the Internet. The “e-proxy” rules remove the requirement for public companies to automatically send stockholders a full, printed copy of proxy materials and allow them instead to deliver to their stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice and Access Card”) and to provide online access to the documents. The Notice and Access Card contains instructions on how to access those documents and to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice and Access Card also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2023 Annual Report. We believe that this process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need on a timelier basis, while reducing the environmental impact and lowering the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials.

We made this proxy statement and our 2023 Annual Report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which includes our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission, available to stockholders on or about August 8, 2024.

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 17, 2024:

The proxy statement, proxy card and 2023 Annual Report to stockholders for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 are available at the following website: www.bonebiologics.com/investor-relation. These documents are also available to any stockholder who wishes to receive a paper copy by calling 866-870-3684, visiting www.investorelections.com/BBLG or emailing paper@investorelections.com.

By Order of the Board of Directors,

/s/ Don Hankey

Don Hankey

Chairman of the Board of Directors

August 8, 2024

YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT REGARDLESS OF THE NUMBER OF SHARES YOU OWN. WHETHER OR NOT YOU PLAN TO ATTEND THE ANNUAL MEETING, YOU ARE URGED TO VOTE ELECTRONICALLY VIA THE INTERNET OR BY COMPLETING, SIGNING, DATING AND RETURNING THE PROXY/VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD. IF GIVEN, YOU MAY REVOKE YOUR PROXY BY FOLLOWING THE INSTRUCTIONS IN THE PROXY STATEMENT AND PROXY/VOTING INSTRUCTION CARD.

Record Date; Shares Entitled To Vote; Vote Required To Approve the Transaction

The Board has fixed the close of business on July 19, 2024 (the “Record Date”), as the date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, 1,315,489 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”) were issued and outstanding, and pursuant to our Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended (the “Bylaws”), each outstanding share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to vote at a meeting of our stockholders.

At least one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented either in person or by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. In the absence of a quorum, the Annual Meeting may be postponed from time to time until stockholders holding the requisite number of shares of our Common Stock are represented in person or by proxy. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be counted towards a quorum at the Annual Meeting.

Solicitation, Voting and Revocation of Proxies

This solicitation of proxies is being made by our Board, and our Company will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communications by directors, officers and employees of our Company, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. We have retained Advantage Proxy, Inc. (“Advantage”) to assist in the proxy solicitation process. We have agreed to pay Advantage $5,000. We also will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to our stockholders.

Shares of our Common Stock represented by a proxy received at or prior to the Annual Meeting, unless properly revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the proxy. If a proxy card is signed and returned without any voting instructions, shares of our Common Stock represented by the proxy card will be voted “FOR” the proposals described in this proxy statement, and in accordance with the determination of the majority of our Board, as to any other matter which may properly come before the Annual Meeting, including any adjournment or postponement thereof. A stockholder may revoke any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation by: (i) submitting a later-dated vote by internet or telephone by 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2024 (only your latest internet or telephone vote will be counted); (ii) delivering to our corporate secretary, at or prior to the Annual Meeting, a duly executed proxy card relating to the same shares and bearing a later date; (iii) delivering to our Corporate Secretary a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy, which must be received no later than September 16, 2024 or (iv) voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, in and of itself, constitute a revocation of a proxy. All written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to the revocation of a proxy should be addressed to:

BONE BIOLOGICS CORPORATION

2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100

Burlington, MA 01803

Attention: Corporate Secretary

Our Board is not aware of any business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting other than consideration of the proposals described herein.

Internet and Telephone Voting

In addition to marking, signing, dating and mailing the enclosed proxy card, you may vote over the Internet or by telephone. Voting via the Internet and telephone is fast, convenient and your vote is immediately confirmed and tabulated. If you choose to vote via the Internet or telephone, instructions to do so are set forth on the Notice and Access Card. If you own your shares in your own name, you can vote via the Internet or telephone in accordance with the instructions provided on the Notice and Access Card. If your shares are held in “street name” by a bank, broker or other nominee, please contact your broker or other organization regarding how to revoke your instructions and change your vote. You may change your vote by submitting a later-dated vote on the internet or by telephone, if offered, or by participating in the Annual Meeting and submitting a later vote during the meeting.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND ANNUAL MEETING

Q:	WHAT IS THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND WHY AM I RECEIVING A NOTICE AND ACCESS CARD?
A:	You are receiving a Notice and Access Card in connection with the Annual Meeting of stockholders called by our Board in connection with soliciting stockholder votes for the purpose of (i) electing four directors to our Board to serve for a term ending on the date of the next Annual Meeting of stockholders following the date such persons are elected as directors, or until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (ii) approve in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation; and (iii) ratifying the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024; in each case, as more fully described in this proxy statement. You have been sent the Notice and Access card because our Board is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of voting on the foregoing matters.
Q:	WHY DID I RECEIVE A NOTICE AND ACCESS CARD INSTEAD OF A FULL SET OF PROXY MATERIALS?
A:	Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), for most stockholders, we are providing access to our proxy materials over the Internet rather than printing and mailing our proxy materials. We believe following this process will expedite the receipt of such materials and will help lower our costs and reduce the environmental impact of our annual meeting materials. Therefore, the Notice and Access Card was mailed to holders of record and beneficial owners of our Common Stock starting on or about August 8, 2024. The Notice and Access Card provides instructions as to how stockholders may access and review our proxy materials, including the Notice of 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement, the proxy card and our 2023 Annual Report, on the website referred to in the Notice and Access Card or, alternatively, how to request that a copy of the proxy materials, including a proxy card, be sent to them by mail. The Notice and Access Card also provides voting instructions. In addition, stockholders of record may request to receive the proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail on an ongoing basis for future stockholder meetings. Please note that, while our proxy materials are available at the website referenced in the Notice and Access Card and our Notice of 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement and our 2023 Annual Report are available on our website. Additionally, upon written request by a stockholder, we will furnish a copy of our 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, including the financial statements and the financial statement schedules, free of charge, except that copies of any exhibit to that report will be furnished once the requesting stockholder has paid our reasonable expenses in furnishing the exhibit. Please direct any written requests to Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803. Stockholders may also view our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 in the Investors section of our website, at www.bonebiologics.com/investor-relation. No other information contained on either website is incorporated by reference in, or considered to be a part of, this proxy statement.
Q:	WHAT INFORMATION IS CONTAINED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT?
A:	The information included in this proxy statement relates to the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, the voting process, compensation of our directors and named executive officers, and certain other required information.
Q:	WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, AND WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSALS?
A:	Only holders of shares of our Common Stock, as of the Record Date, are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of July 19, 2024, the Record Date, there were 1,315,489 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding, and entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. For all matters each outstanding share of our Common Stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter. Pursuant to our Bylaws, at least one-third of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented either in person or by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. The table below shows the vote required to approve each of the proposals described in this proxy statement, assuming the presence of a quorum, in person or by proxy, at the Annual Meeting.

3

Proposal	Description	Vote Required	Effect of Abstentions	Effect of Broker Non-Votes
One	Election of the four directors	Plurality of the votes cast at the Annual Meeting(1)	None	None
Two	Approval, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation	Affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast on the proposal (2)	None	None
Three	To ratify the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A., as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024	Affirmative vote of the majority of votes cast on the proposal (3)	None	N/A because this proposal is a matter on which brokers may vote

(1)	Our stockholders elect directors by a plurality vote, which means that the director nominees receiving the most votes will be elected. A vote to “withhold” will have no effect on the election of director nominees because the nominees who receive the highest number of “for” votes are elected, and since the nominees are running unopposed they only need a single “for” vote to be elected.
(2)	The advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers is not binding upon our Board or the Compensation Committee of our Board. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the outcome of this vote when making future compensation decisions.
(3)	We are presenting the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. to our stockholders for ratification. The Audit Committee of our Board will consider the outcome of this vote in its future discussions regarding the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm.

Q:	WHO COUNTS THE VOTES?
A:	Equiniti Trust Company, LLC has been appointed inspector of election by the Company and will tabulate votes at the Annual Meeting.
Q:	DOES OUR BOARD RECOMMEND VOTING “FOR” THE PROPOSALS?
A:	Yes. Our Board unanimously recommends that our stockholders vote “FOR” each of the four director nominees in this proxy statement, and “FOR” Proposals two and three.
Q:	HOW MAY I VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS IF I OWN SHARES IN MY OWN NAME?
A:	If you own your shares in your own name, you may vote on the proposals presented in this proxy statement in one of the following four ways whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting: (1) by Internet at www.proxypush.com/BBLG, we encourage you to vote this way, (2) by touch tone telephone: call toll-free at 1-866-883-3382, (3) by completing, signing, dating and returning your proxy card, if you requested a printed copy of the proxy materials, and (4) at the Annual Meeting. It is important that you vote your shares whether or not you attend the meeting in person. If you provide no instructions on your proxy card, the shares will be voted “FOR” (i) the election of four nominees listed on the proxy card; (ii) the approval, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation; and (iii) ratifying the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. In the event other business properly comes before the Annual Meeting or at any adjournment or postponement of the meeting, the individuals named in the proxy will vote the shares represented by the proxy in their discretion.

4

Q:	HOW MAY I VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN “STREET NAME” BY MY BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE?
A:	If on the Record Date, your shares of our Common Stock were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer or other similar organization, which we collectively refer to as a broker, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials are being made available to you by that organization along with a voting instruction card. As a beneficial owner, you must vote your shares in the manner prescribed by your broker. Your broker has enclosed or otherwise provided a voting instruction card for you to use in directing the broker how to vote your shares. Your shares will be voted as you indicate. Check the voting instruction card used by that organization to see if it offers internet or telephone voting. If you hold your shares in street name, you will receive instructions from your broker, bank or nominee that you must follow in order to submit your voting instructions and have your shares voted at the Annual Meeting. If you want to vote in person at the Annual Meeting you may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the meeting. Brokerage firms do not have authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions except with respect to the ratification of Weinberg & Company, P.A. which is considered a routine matter. A broker, banker or other nominee no longer has discretion to vote for or against the other proposals in this proxy statement which are considered non-routine matters. Accordingly, we encourage you to provide instructions to your brokerage firm on how to vote your shares. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we recommend that you submit your proxy or voting instructions in advance of the Annual Meeting as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend or are unable to attend the Annual Meeting. You may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the Annual Meeting if you intend to vote shares held in “street name” at the Annual Meeting.
Q:	CAN I CHANGE MY MIND AND REVOKE MY PROXY?
A:	Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote at any time before the polls close at the meeting. You may do this by (i) submitting a later-dated vote by internet or telephone; (ii) delivering to our Corporate Secretary, at or prior to the Annual Meeting, a duly executed proxy card relating to the same shares and bearing a later date; (iii) delivering to our Corporate Secretary a timely written notice that you are revoking your proxy, which must be received no later than September 16, 2024 or (iv) voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting, in and of itself, will not constitute a revocation of a proxy. If you voted by Internet or telephone, you may change your vote at any time up until 11:59 p.m., Eastern Time, on September 16, 2024, by resubmitting a new vote by Internet or telephone. Your last vote will be the one which is used for voting purposes. If you hold your shares in “street name,” you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or other nominee. You may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the Annual Meeting if you intend to vote shares held in “street name” at the Annual Meeting.
Q:	CAN I VOTE MY SHARES IN PERSON?
A:	Yes. The Annual Meeting is open to all holders of our Common Stock as of the Record Date. To vote in person, you will need to attend the meeting and bring with you evidence of your stock ownership. If your shares are registered in your name, you will need to bring a copy of stock certificate(s) together with valid picture identification. If your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee or you received your proxy materials electronically, you will need to bring evidence of your stock ownership, such as your most recent brokerage account statement, and valid picture identification, and may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the Annual Meeting.

5

Q:	HOW CAN I FIND OUT THE VOTING RESULTS OF THE ANNUAL MEETING?
A:	Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K to be filed with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting.
Q:	DO I HAVE DISSENTERS’ RIGHTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSALS?
A:	No. Under Delaware law, “dissenters’ rights” are not available in connection with the proposals presented in this proxy statement.
Q.	HOW MAY I REQUEST A SINGLE SET OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR MY HOUSEHOLD?
A:	If you share an address with another stockholder and have received multiple copies of our proxy materials, you may write us to request delivery of a single copy of these materials. Written requests should be made to Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803.
Q.	WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I RECEIVE MORE THAN ONE SET OF VOTING MATERIALS?
A:	You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you may receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a stockholder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date, and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive.
Q.	WHAT HAPPENS IF ADDITIONAL MATTERS ARE PRESENTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?
A:	Other than the proposals described in this proxy statement, we are not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. If you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxy holders will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting. If for any reason any of our nominees are not available as a candidate for director, the persons named as proxy holders will vote your proxy for such other candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board.
Q.	IS MY VOTE CONFIDENTIAL?
A:	Proxy instructions, ballots and voting tabulations that identify individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your vote will not be disclosed either within the Company or to third parties, except: (1) as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, (2) to allow for the tabulation of votes and certification of the vote, and (3) to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation.
Q.	WHO IS PAYING FOR THIS PROXY SOLICITATION?
A:	Our Board is making this solicitation, and we will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communications by our directors, officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. We will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to stockholders.

PROPOSAL I – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board currently has four directors. The Board proposes that all of the nominees listed below, each of whom currently serves on the Board, be elected as directors to serve for a term ending on the date of the next annual meeting of stockholders following the date such persons are elected as directors, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has approved and recommended for election as directors at the Annual Meeting the nominees described in this proxy statement.

Each of the nominees has consented to serve if elected. If any of them becomes unavailable to serve as a director, the Board may designate a substitute nominee. In that case, the persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute nominee designated by the Board. There are no family relationships between any director, executive officer, or person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer.

Name	Age	Position
Don Hankey	81	Chairman of the Board of Directors
Bruce Stroever	74	Director
Siddhesh Angle	40	Director
Robert Gagnon	50	Director

The biographies and work experience of each of our nominees for directors is set forth below under “Directors and Executive Officers.”

Vote Required and Recommendation of Board

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting is required for the election of directors. A properly executed proxy marked “WITHHELD” with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

The Board Recommends a Vote “For” Each of the Nominees Listed Above.

7

PROPOSAL II – ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to endorse or not endorse our executive pay practices. This vote is intended to provide an overall assessment of our executive compensation program rather than focus on any specific item of compensation. The goal for our executive compensation program is to motivate and retain highly-talented executives who are critical to the successful implementation of our strategic business plan.

At our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, our stockholders approved that we hold this non-binding, advisory vote on executive compensation every year. Our Board subsequently adopted this preference, and we are providing our stockholders with a say-on-pay vote this year.

We invite you to consider the details of our executive compensation program provided in the tables and narrative discussion relating to the program. These will provide you with the individual elements of our compensation program and allow you to view the trends in compensation for the years presented.

We request stockholder approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC’s compensation disclosure rules, which disclosures include the compensation tables and the narrative discussion pertaining to compensation. As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding upon our Board or us. However, we expect that our Compensation Committee, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers. Accordingly, we are asking you to approve the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers of Bone Biologics Corporation, as disclosed in the 2024 Proxy Statement of Bone Biologics Corporation pursuant to Item 402 of SEC Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion, hereby is approved.

The Board unanimously recommends that you vote “FOR” the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. Proxies received will be so voted unless stockholders vote otherwise via the Internet or specify otherwise in their completed and returned proxy cards.

PROPOSAL III – RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

General

The Audit Committee of our Board has appointed Weinberg & Company, P.A. (“Weinberg & Company”) to act as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024, and recommends that our stockholders vote to ratify such appointment. Representatives of Weinberg & Company are not expected to be present at the Annual Meeting.

Stockholder ratification of the selection of Weinberg & Company is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise. However, the Board is submitting the selection of our independent registered accounting firm to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate governance. If the stockholders fail to ratify this appointment, the Audit Committee may, but is not required to, reconsider whether to retain Weinberg & Company. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Legal Proceedings

On July 11, 2019, Dr. Bessie (Chia) Soo and Dr. Kang (Eric) Ting (“Plaintiffs”) filed a complaint (the “Complaint”) in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts against the Company, Bruce Stroever (“Stroever”), John Booth (“Booth”), Stephen LaNeve (“LaNeve”, and together with Stroever and Booth, the “Individual Defendants”), and MTF Biologics (f/k/a The Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Inc.) (“MTF”). The Complaint alleged claims for breach of contract against the Company and tortious interference with contract against the Individual Defendants and MTF arising from the termination of the Professional Service Agreements, dated as of January 8, 2016, between the Company and each of the Plaintiffs. The Individual Defendants were sued for actions taken by them in connection with their service to the Company as directors and/or officers of the Company. As such, we have certain indemnification obligations to the Individual Defendants.

On January 10, 2024 we entered into a Settlement Agreement and Mutual General Release (the “Agreement”) with the Plaintiffs on the one hand, and the Company and LaNeve on the other hand, in settlement of the claims for breach of contract and tortious interference with contract. The Agreement is effective as of January 9, 2024.

Under the Agreement, the Company agreed to pay the plaintiffs $750,000, and on February 7, 2024, the Company paid $414,989, and the Company’s insurance carrier paid $335,011 for the total settlement.

In the normal course of our business, we may periodically become subject to various lawsuits. However, except as noted above, there are currently no legal actions pending against us or, to our knowledge, are any such proceedings contemplated.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Our Board consists of four (4) members: Don Hankey, Bruce Stroever, Sid Angle, and Robert Gagnon. The Board met four times during 2023.

Director Independence

The listing standards of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”) require that a majority of our Board be independent. No director will qualify as independent unless the board affirmatively determines that the director has no relationship with us that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Based upon the Nasdaq listing standards and applicable SEC rules and regulations, our board has determined that each of Sid Angle, Robert Gagnon and Bruce Stroever are independent and that Erick Lucera, who resigned from our board effective January 8, 2024, was independent during his service on the Board of Directors.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board believes it is important to select the Company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in the manner it considers in the best interests of the Company at any given time. The Board has elected a Chairman of the Board who is different from the Company’s Chief Executive Officer.

The Board currently includes three individuals who are independent from the management of the Company. The Board and its committees meet regularly throughout the year to assure that the independent directors are well briefed and informed with regard to the Company’s affairs. Independent directors have unfettered access to any employee within the Company and are encouraged to call upon whatever employee he deems fit to secure the information each director feels is important to their understanding of our Company. In this fashion, we seek to maintain well informed, independent directors who are prepared to make informed decisions regarding our business affairs.

Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while the Board as a whole plays an important role in overseeing the identification, assessment and mitigation of such risks. The Board reviews information regarding the Company’s finances and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. For example, the oversight of financial risk management lies primarily with the Board’s Audit Committee, which is empowered to appoint and oversee our independent auditors, monitor the integrity of our financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls and provide an avenue of communication among our independent auditors, management and the Board. The Company’s Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company’s compensation plans and arrangements. Our Board administers its cybersecurity risk oversight function directly. In fulfilling its risk oversight responsibility, the Board, as a whole and acting through any established committees, regularly consults with management to evaluate and, when appropriate, modify our risk management strategies.

Stockholders may recommend candidates for Nominating and Governance Committee consideration by submitting such recommendation using the method described under “Communications with the Board.” Stockholders may also nominate director candidates in accordance with our Bylaws as described under “2025 Annual Meeting ⸻ Stockholder Nominations of Directors.”

The Indemnification Agreement provides for indemnification against expenses, judgments, fines and penalties actually and reasonably incurred by an indemnitee in connection with threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or other proceedings, subject to certain limitations. The Indemnification Agreement also provides for the advancement of expenses in connection with a proceeding prior to a final, non-appealable judgment or other adjudication, provided that the indemnitee provides an undertaking to repay to us any amounts advanced if the indemnitee is ultimately found not to be entitled to indemnification by us. The Indemnification Agreement sets forth procedures for making and responding to a request for indemnification or advancement of expenses, as well as dispute resolution procedures that will apply to any dispute between us and an indemnitee arising under the Indemnification Agreement.

Code of Conduct and Ethics

The Company adopted a formal code of ethics within the meaning of Item 406 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that applies to our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions and that that establishes, among other things, procedures for handling actual or apparent conflicts of interest.

Analysis of Information Presented in the Pay Verses Performance Table

We are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table, including CAP, as required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K. We are a pre-revenue medical device development stage entity engaged in research and development activities focused the development of a medical device to assist in bone regeneration in spinal fusion. Accordingly, the Compensation Committee does not use total stockholder return or net income (loss) in its compensation programs. However, the Compensation Committee does utilize several other performance measures, including management of research efforts, development and management of intellectual property assets, budget management, and capital raising efforts, to align executive compensation with our performance and business objectives (see “Executive Compensation”).

In 2023, the compensation paid to the PEO decreased by $73,785 compared to 2022. This reduction was influenced by a bonus awarded when the Company fully resumed operations in 2022 after scaling back during most of 2021 due to limited capital resources. Additionally, in 2023, the PEO received a cash bonus of $25,000 and was granted 25,000 stock options. Similarly, the compensation paid to non-PEO NEOs decreased in 2023 compared to 2022, also attributable to the bonus granted during the Company’s full resumption of operations in 2022 after scaling back in 2021 due to limited capital resources.

Compensation actually paid to the PEO increased by $116,750 in 2022 as compared to 2021 due to the Company fully resuming operations in 2022 after scaling back operations during most of 2021 as a result of limited capital resources. In 2022, our PEO was paid a cash bonus of $37,750 and was granted 158 stock options. In 2021, our PEO was not paid a cash bonus and was not granted any stock options. Compensation actually paid to the non-PEO NEOs increased in 2022 as compared to 2021, as Ms. Walsh, our Chief Financial Officer, became a full-time employee in 2022.

The information provided above under the “Pay Versus Performance” heading will not be deemed to be incorporated by reference into any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, whether made before or after the date hereof and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates such information by reference.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

None of the following persons has any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction to which we are a party or in any proposed transaction to which we are proposed to be a party since January 1, 2022:

● Any of our directors or officers;

● Any proposed nominee for election as our director;

● Any relative or spouse of any of the foregoing persons, or any relative of such spouse, who has the same house as such person or who is a director or officer of any parent or subsidiary of our Company.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

Due to the small size of our Company, we do not at this time have a formal written policy regarding the review of related party transactions, and rely on our full Board to review, approve or ratify such transactions and identify and prevent conflicts of interest. Our Board reviews any such transaction in light of the particular affiliation and interest of any involved director, officer or other employee or stockholder and, if applicable, any such person’s affiliates or immediate family members. Management aims to present transactions to our Board for approval before they are entered into or, if that is not possible, for ratification after the transaction has occurred. If our Board finds that a conflict of interest exists, then it will determine the appropriate action or remedial action, if any. Our Board approves or ratifies a transaction if it determines that the transaction is consistent with our best interests and the best interest of our stockholders.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(a) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of the Company’s 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 the Company. 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 during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with except with respect to Messrs. Frelick, Lucera, Angle and Stroever who each filed one late Form 4 each reporting one transaction and Ms. Walsh who filed one late Form 4 reporting one transaction.

Among other things, Rule 14a-8 requires that we receive such proposals not less than 120 days prior to the one-year anniversary of this proxy statement, or April 10, 2025. If the proposal is in compliance with all of the requirements set forth in Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, we will include the stockholder proposal in our proxy statement and place it on the form of proxy issued for the 2025 annual meeting.

Stockholder Proposals for Consideration at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, but not for Inclusion in the Proxy Materials.

Pursuant to our Bylaws, items of business that are proposed outside of the process pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act as described above, may properly be brought before the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders only if we receive notice of such business no earlier than 120 days and no later than 90 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting. Thus, for the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, we must receive notice of business that is not submitted for inclusion in our proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act between May 20, 2025 and June 19, 2025.

Stockholder business that is not submitted for inclusion in our proxy statement pursuant to Rule 14a-8 should be mailed to the following address: Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Suite 100, Burlington, MA 01803. You may obtain a copy of Bylaws by writing to the Corporate Secretary at the address above.

Stockholder Nominations of Directors.

Pursuant to our Bylaws, no nominations for directors shall be acted upon at the annual meeting except for those made by the Board and those made by stockholders of record upon timely notice in writing to our Corporate Secretary. To be considered timely, notice must be received by us no earlier than 120 days and no later than 90 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the previous year’s annual meeting.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice and Access Card or other Annual Meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are Company stockholders will be “householding” the Company’s proxy materials. A single Notice and Access Card will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate Notice and Access Card, please notify your broker or the Company. Direct your written request to Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803 and oral requests may be made by calling the Company at (781) 552-4452 and we will promptly deliver a separate copy. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their brokers.

OTHER MATTERS

Management does not intend to present any other items of business and knows of no other matters that will be brought before the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please sign and date the enclosed proxy card.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

This proxy statement and materials delivered with this proxy statement, including our 2023 Annual Report, contains “forward-looking” statements. All statements other than statements of historical facts included in this proxy statement and materials delivered with this proxy statement, including, without limitation, statements regarding our financial position, business strategy, and plans and objectives of management for future operations and capital expenditures, are forward-looking statements. Although we believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements and the assumptions upon which the forward-looking statements are based are reasonable, we can give no assurance that such expectations and assumptions will prove to have been correct.
