Item 5.02 |
Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers. |
On August 3, 2021, the Board of Directors of Arcus Biosciences, Inc. appointed Nicole Lambert to the Board as a Class II Director. Ms. Lambert was appointed to a newly created vacancy resulting from an increase in the size of the Board from eleven (11) to twelve (12) directors.
As a non-employee director, Ms. Lambert (a) will receive an annual cash retainer of $40,000, (b) was granted an option to purchase 21,700 shares of the Company’s common stock, which will vest and become exercisable in substantially equal monthly installments over 36 months of continuous service provided by her to the Company, and (c) was granted 4,700 restricted stock units (RSUs), with one-third of the shares subject to the RSU vesting each year, subject to her continuous service to the Company. The equity grants will also become fully vested and exercisable in the event Arcus is subject to a Change in Control (as defined in the company’s Compensation Program for Non-Employee Directors).
Ms. Lambert is not a party to any transaction with Arcus that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K, and there are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Lambert, on the one hand, and any other persons, on the other hand, pursuant to which Ms. Lambert was selected as a director.
