Audit Committee
As of April 15, 2014, our Audit Committee is composed of Messrs. Stephen Austin (Chairperson), August Bassani and Peter Kenny. Former directors Paul Finnegan and Jeffrey Abrams served on our Audit Committee during fiscal year 2013 until their resignations from the Board effective October 1, 2013 and September 29, 2013, respectively, and Messrs. Bassani and Kenny were subsequently nominated to replace them on the committee. Our Board has affirmatively determined that (i) each member of the Audit Committee during fiscal 2013 was independent under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2), and satisfied all other qualifications under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5065(e) and the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission and (ii) each current member of the Audit Committee is independent under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(a)(2), and meets all other qualifications under Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 5605(e) and the applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Our Board has also affirmatively determined that Stephen Austin and Peter Kenny each qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933. During 2013, the Audit Committee held four meetings.
The Audit Committee acts pursuant to a written charter, which is available for review on our website at www.imprimispharma.com under the “Investor Relations” tab. The responsibilities of the Audit Committee include overseeing, reviewing and evaluating our financial statements, accounting and financial reporting processes, internal control functions and the audits of our financial statements. The Audit Committee is also responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention, and as necessary, the termination of our independent auditors.
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Such persons are required by SEC regulations to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms filed by such person.
5 |
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and the written representations from certain of the reporting persons that no other reports were required, we believe that during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013, all executive officers, directors and greater than ten-percent beneficial owners complied with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a), except that director Robert Kammer filed a late Form 5 on April 22, 2014 with respect to one transaction that occurred on September 30, 2013 and that was not reported on a Form 4 during the 2013 fiscal year.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our Board has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees.

Each of our directors, employees and officers, including our Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, and all of our other executive officers, are required to comply with the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. There have not been any waivers of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics relating to any of our executive officers or directors in the past year.

(1) | Reflects the dollar amount of the grant date fair value of awards granted during the respective fiscal years, measured in accordance with Topic 718 and without adjustment for estimated forfeitures. For a discussion of the assumptions used to calculate the value of option awards, refer to Note 6 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 included in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2013. For a discussion of the material terms of each stock option award, see the table entitled “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End.” |
(2) | Amounts represent cash awards earned under the Company’s annual incentive plan based on the Company’s performance measured against the corporate objectives established for the named executive officer and actual individual executive officer performance against his individual goals. Such amounts are determined and paid after the end of each fiscal year, but reflect individual and Company performance for the respective fiscal years reflected above. |
(3) | “All Other Compensation” summarized in the table for fiscal 2012 for Mr. Boll consists of fees paid to Mr. Boll for consulting services performed during the fiscal year 2012 prior to his appointment as our Vice President, Accounting and Public Reporting. |
“All Other Compensation” summarized in the table for fiscal 2012 for Mr. Schupp consists of fees paid to an entity beneficially owned by Mr. Schupp for consulting services performed during the fiscal year 2012 prior to his appointment as our Chief Medical Officer. |
6 |
(4) | Represents the fair market value on the date of grant of restricted stock units (RSUs) awarded to Mr. Baum during 2013 under the Company’s Amended and Restated 2007 Incentive Stock and Awards Plan (the “Plan”). Of these RSUs, 200,000 vest on the third anniversary of the grant date contingent on continuous service to the Company through such date, and 1,050,000 RSUs vest three years from the date of grant contingent upon the satisfaction of certain market-based vesting criteria during the three year period. The market-based vesting criteria are separated into five equal tranches and require that the Company achieve and maintain certain stock price targets ranging from $10 per share to $30 per share during the three year period following the grant date. See the discussion under “Compensation Arrangements with Mark L. Baum – Performance Equity Award” below for a more detailed description of these vesting provisions. At the time of the entry into the employment agreement in May 2013, the per person grant limit under the Plan for grants of performance-based restricted stock units was 600,000 shares. As a result, Mr. Baum received 600,000 of the RSUs called for by the employment agreement at that time, and the remaining 450,000 RSUs called for by the employment agreement were deferred until an amendment to the Plan to increase to the number of shares available for grant and the applicable annual per person grant limit became effective on September 27, 2013. Upon receipt of stockholder approval, the remaining 450,000 RSUs were granted. Concurrent with the issuance of the 450,000 RSUs, 120,000 unvested RSUs previously granted to Mr. Baum in July 2012 were cancelled. As a result, the issuance of the 450,000 RSUs has been treated as a modification of the RSU grant made to Mr. Baum in July 2012 for accounting purposes. The amounts represent the aggregate grant date fair value of the awards granted to Mr. Baum computed in accordance with Financial Standards Accounting Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (“Topic 718”). A discussion of the assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the RSUs is set forth in Note 6 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2014. For a discussion of the material terms of Mr. Baum’s equity awards, see the description of Mr. Baum’s employment agreement and the table entitled “Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End.” |
(5) | Represents the aggregate grant date fair value of the RSUs granted to Mr. Baum during 2012 computed in accordance with Topic 718 based upon the probable outcome of such conditions. A discussion of the assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the RSUs is set forth in Note 6 of the Notes to Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013 filed with the SEC on March 28, 2014. As described in (4) above, in September 2013 120,000 unvested RSUs granted in 20112 were forfeited and replaced by a portion of the subsequent RSU grant to Mr. Baum. |
(6) | Represents the fair value of (i) an option to purchase up to 125,000 shares of common stock under the Plan granted on January 25, 2012 for, among other things, his services as Chairman of the Board of Directors which vested monthly over twelve months following the grant date, (ii) an option to purchase up to 25,000 shares of common stock under the Plan, which was granted to each of the Company’s directors on April 1, 2012 for their services as directors and which vested in equal installments of 6,250 shares on each of June 30, 2012, September 30, 2012, December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013 subject to continued service as a director on each such date, and (iii) an option to purchase up to 60,000 shares of common stock under the Plan granted on April 1, 2012 in connection with his appointment as our Chief Executive Officer. These options vested monthly over twenty four months following the grant date. |
(7) | Represents the fair value of (i) an option to purchase up to 225,000 shares of common stock under the Plan granted on January 25, 2012 in connection with his appointment as our President, which options vested monthly over thirty six months following the grant date, and (ii) an option to purchase up to 25,000 shares of common stock under the Plan, which was granted to each of the Company’s directors on April 1, 2012 for their services as directors and which vested in equal installments of 6,250 shares on each of June 30, 2012, September 30, 2012, December 31, 2012 and March 31, 2013 subject to continued service as a director on each such date. On July 25, 2012, Dr. Brar resigned as a director, and as a result of such resignation, the 25,000 unexercised options expired. |

(9) | Effective May 7, 2013, Dr. Balbir Brar resigned from his position with the Company and no longer serves as an executive officer of the Company. |

Compensation Arrangements with Mark L. Baum
Amended and Restated Employment Agreement
On May 2, 2013, we entered into an amended and restated employment agreement with Mark L. Baum, our Chief Executive Officer. The employment agreement has an initial term of three years and will automatically renew thereafter for consecutive one year terms unless earlier terminated by either party. The agreement provides for an initial annual base salary of $329,000 and a target annual incentive bonus of 45% of his annual base salary. In addition, as described more fully below, in connection with the employment agreement, Mr. Baum received the following equity incentive awards: (i) 180,000 options to purchase our common stock; (ii) 200,000 restricted stock units subject to time-based vesting; and (iii) 1,050,000 restricted stock units subject to performance-based vesting.
2013 Performance Equity Award
Under his employment agreement, Mr. Baum was granted a performance-based restricted stock unit award (the “Performance Equity Award”) of 1,050,000 performance-based restricted stock units. The Performance Equity Award vests three years from the date of grant contingent upon the satisfaction of certain performance-based vesting criteria during the three year period. The performance-based vesting criteria are broken into five equal tranches and require that the Company achieves and maintains certain stock price targets ranging from $10 per share to $30 per share during the three year period following the grant date. With certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be employed with the Company on the third anniversary of the grant date in order for the Performance Equity Award to vest. These market-based vesting conditions are set forth below:
Tranche | Number of Shares | Target Share Price | ||
Tranche 1 | 19.05% of the Performance Equity Award granted | $10.00 or greater | ||
Tranche 2 | 19.05% of the Performance Equity Award granted | $15.00 or greater | ||
Tranche 3 | 19.05% of the Performance Equity Award granted | $20.00 or greater | ||
Tranche 4 | 19.05% of the Performance Equity Award granted | $25.00 or greater | ||
Tranche 5 | 23.80% of the Performance Equity Award granted | $30.00 or greater |
The closing sale price of our Common Stock on May 2, 2013, the date the performance equity award was approved, was $8.99. Accordingly, Tranche 1 vesting requires a stock price appreciation of 11% Tranche 2 vesting requires a stock price appreciation of 67% Tranche 3 vesting requires a stock price appreciation of 122% Tranche 4 vesting requires a stock price appreciation of 178% and Tranche 5 vesting requires a stock price appreciation of 234%. For each respective tranche to vest the following conditions must be met: (i) the Company’s common stock must have an official closing price at or above the Target Share Price for the respective tranche (each such date, a “Trigger Date”); (ii) during the period that includes the Trigger Date and the immediately following 19 trading days (the “Measurement Period”), the arithmetic mean of the 20 closing prices of the Company’s common stock during the Measurement Period must be at or above the Target Share Price for such tranche; and (iii) with certain limited exceptions, Mr. Baum must be in continuous service with the Company through the third anniversary of the grant date. Any unvested restricted stock units under the Performance Equity Award will be forfeited on the third anniversary of the grant date. In addition, the Performance Equity Award contains an incentive recoupment (or “clawback”) provision that provides for Mr. Baum’s forfeiture or repayment of the benefits granted under the Performance Equity Award under certain circumstances.
9 |
At the time of initial grant of the Performance Equity Award, (i) the per person grant limit under the Plan for grants of performance-based restricted stock units was 600,000 shares and (ii) insufficient shares were authorized for grant under the Plan to accommodate the Performance Equity Award. As a result, under the terms of the employment agreement with Mr. Baum, the earning and issuance of any shares under the Performance Equity Award that would exceed the number of shares available for grant and/or the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan was subject to approval by our stockholders of an increase in the number of shares available for grant and the applicable annual per person grant limit for performance-based restricted stock units under the Plan. The Board approved such increases on May 2, 2013, and our stockholders approved such increases on September 27, 2013. As a result, 600,000 RSUs under the Performance Equity Award were granted to Mr. Baum effective May 2, 2013 and the remaining 450,000 RSUs were granted to Mr. Baum effective September 27, 2013.
Other Equity Incentive Grants
In July 2012, Mr. Baum was granted 160,000 RSUs with certain performance-based vesting features. Of these, 40,000 RSUs vested upon the closing of our public offering in 2013. Concurrent with the issuance of the 450,000 performance-based RSUs described above in September 2013, Mr. Baum agreed to cancel the remaining 120,000 unvested RSUs previously granted to him in July 2012. As a result, the issuance of the 450,000 RSUs has been treated as a modification of the RSU grant made to Mr. Baum in July 2012 for accounting purposes.
Mr. Baum’s employment agreement also provides for the one-time grant of 180,000 stock options and 200,000 RSUs, both of which were granted on May 2, 2013. The stock options vest on a quarterly basis over three years and have an exercise price of $8.99 per share, the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant, and the RSUs vest on the third anniversary of the agreement, contingent on continuous service to the Company through the applicable vesting date.
In addition, Mr. Baum is eligible for an annual long-term incentive grants at the time grants are generally made to other senior executives.
Termination Provisions
In the event the Company terminates Mr. Baum’s employment without Cause or Mr. Baum terminates his employment for Good Reason (as those terms are defined in Mr. Baum’s employment agreement) (a termination without Cause or for Good Reason a “Qualifying Termination”), Mr. Baum will be entitled to receive: (i) accrued and unpaid base salary through the termination date; (ii) a prorated bonus payment for the year in which the termination occurs; (iii) a severance payment equal to the sum of (A) his annual base salary plus (B) one times his actual bonus payment in the two prior years; and (iv) continued group health plan coverage through COBRA for 18 months.
In the event of a Qualifying Termination, the Performance Equity Award for which the relevant stock price vesting targets have been satisfied at the time of such Qualifying Termination shall vest immediately. In addition, any Performance Equity Awards for which the relevant stock price vesting targets are satisfied within 12 months following the Qualifying Termination will vest on the date of the satisfaction of such vesting criteria. With respect to the Performance Equity Award, in the event of a Qualifying Termination after the first anniversary and prior to the third anniversary of the grant date and within one year of a change of control, all performance stock units subject to the Performance Equity Award that would have vested prior to such date based on the achievement of the associated Company stock price targets will vest and all performance stock units subject to the Performance Equity Award with an associated stock price target at or below the per share consideration in the Change of Control transaction shall vest in full.
Employment Agreement with Andrew R. Boll, CMA
On January 25, 2012, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Boll, effective as of February 1, 2012, with an initial term of three years. Under the terms of the employment agreement, Mr. Boll received an initial base salary of $60,000 per year and was granted an option an option to purchase 15,000 shares of common stock under the Plan to Mr. Boll on February 1, 2012, the date of his employment with the Company. The option has an exercise price of $3.68 per share, has a four year term and vests monthly over a 36 month period following the date of grant. The option vests in full upon a change of control as defined in the Plan. Mr. Boll has agreed to not sell more than 5% of the shares of the Company’s common stock acquired through the exercise of his stock option in any monthly period without the approval of the Board of Directors. On October 1, 2012, Mr. Boll’s salary was increased to $90,000 per year, and on April 1, 2013, Mr. Boll’s salary was increased to $155,000 per year.

In partial consideration for and in connection with the Line of Credit Agreement, on November 21, 2011 we executed a Securities Purchase Agreement with DermaStar, pursuant to which we agreed to issue 10 shares of newly-designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) to DermaStar for an aggregate purchase price of $100,000. The Securities Purchase Agreement, as amended, became effective on December 9, 2011, in connection with the dismissal of the Chapter 11 Case by the Bankruptcy Court. On December 12, 2011, we and DermaStar consummated the transactions contemplated by the Securities Purchase Agreement. The shares of Series A Preferred Stock issued to DermaStar in the offering are convertible into 1,499,700 shares of our common stock.
On June 29, 2012, DermaStar converted the 10 shares of Series A Preferred Stock held by it into 1,499,700 shares of our common stock. In connection with the conversion, we paid to DermaStar $200,000 as partial consideration for the conversion pursuant to a conversion agreement. Immediately following the conversion of the Series A Preferred Stock, all 10 shares were retired to our treasury and cancelled. The conversion agreement was unanimously approved by the Company’s disinterested directors, with Mr. Baum and Dr. Kammer abstaining.
7.5% Convertible Promissory Note
On April 5, 2010, we issued a $1,000,000 7.5% Convertible Promissory Note (the “Convertible Note”) to Alexej Ladonnikov, an existing stockholder of the Company. The Convertible Note had an annual interest rate of 7.5% and all principal and interest were due and payable on its maturity date, April 5, 2012. During January 2012, Mr. Ladonnikov sold 80% of the Convertible Note to DermaStar in a private transaction. Effective as of January 25, 2012, we entered into separate waiver and settlement agreements with DermaStar and Mr. Ladonnikov. Under each of the waiver and settlement agreements, the holders of the Convertible Note agreed to forever waive (i) their rights to accelerate the entire unpaid principal sum of the Convertible Note and all accrued interest pursuant to Section 1 of the Convertible Note, (ii) their rights under Section 7 of the Senior Convertible Note Purchase Agreement dated April 5, 2010, and (iii) certain conversion rights pursuant to Section 3 of the Convertible Note. Under the terms of the waiver and settlement agreement with DermaStar, we and DermaStar agreed to the mandatory conversion of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Convertible Note and $56,087 in current accounts payable of the Company held by DermaStar into our common stock at a conversion price of approximately $0.6668 per share at such time as we had a sufficient number of shares of authorized common stock to effect such conversion. Under the terms of the waiver and settlement agreement with Mr. Ladonnikov, we and Mr. Ladonnikov agreed to the mandatory conversion of the 20% of the principal and accrued and unpaid interest of the Convertible Note held by Mr. Ladonnikov, at such time as we had a sufficient number of authorized common shares to effect such a conversion, into our common stock at a conversion price of $0.60. Mr. Ladonnikov also agreed to make a one-time payment of $50,000 to us at such time as the Convertible Note was converted into common stock.
On February 28, 2012, effective immediately following the effective time of our Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation increasing the number of authorized shares of common stock and implementing the one-for-eight reverse split of our common stock, the entire outstanding balance and all accrued but unpaid interest owing under the Convertible Note and the accounts payable held by DermaStar were converted into 1,835,830 shares of common stock, and the Convertible Note was terminated. At the time of conversion, there was approximately $142,603 in accrued and unpaid interest due under the Convertible Note. Mr. Ladonnikov made the required one-time payment of $50,000 to us at the time of the conversion.

Related-Party Transaction Review and Approval
Our Board has adopted policies and procedures for the review and approval of related-party transactions and has delegated to the Corporate Governance Committee the authority to review and approve the material terms of any proposed related-party transactions. To the extent that a proposed related-party transaction may involve a non-employee director or nominee for election as a director and may be material to a consideration of that person’s independence, the matter may also be considered by the other disinterested directors.
Pursuant to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics and our Corporate Governance Committee Charter, each of our executive officers and directors must disclose related-party transactions to our Corporate Governance Committee. In order to avoid conflicts of interest, our executive officers and directors may not acquire any ownership interest in any supplier, customer or competitor (other than nominal amounts of stock in publicly traded companies), enter into any consulting or employment relationship with any customer, supplier or competitor, or engage in any outside business activity that is competitive with any of our businesses, without first disclosing the proposed transaction. After the proposed transaction has been disclosed, a determination will be made by our Corporate Governance Committee as to what course to follow, depending on the nature or extent of the conflict. Furthermore, our executive officers and directors may not serve on any board of directors of any customer, supplier or competitor unless such board service has been disclosed to us and approved by our Board. Our Corporate Governance Committee has been delegated the task of reviewing other directorships and consulting agreements of Board members for conflicts of interest. All members of our Board are required to report annually all other directorships and consulting agreements.
In determining whether to approve or ratify a related-party transaction, the Corporate Governance Committee may consider, among other factors it deems appropriate, the potential benefits to us, the impact on a director’s or nominee’s independence or an executive officer’s relationship with or service to us, whether the related-party transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related party’s interest in the transaction. In deciding to approve a transaction, the Corporate Governance Committee may, in its sole discretion, impose such conditions as it deems appropriate on us or the related party in connection with its approval of any transaction. Any transactions involving the compensation of executive officers, however, are to be reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee. If a related-party transaction will be ongoing, the Corporate Governance Committee may establish guidelines to be followed in our ongoing dealings with the related party. Thereafter, the Corporate Governance Committee, on at least an annual basis, will review and assess ongoing relationships with the related party to see that they are in compliance with the committee’s guidelines and that the related-party transaction remains appropriate.
Director Independence
Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Austin, Mr. Kenny, and Mr. Bassani would each be considered an “independent director” as defined in Rule 5605(a)(2) of the NASDAQ Rules. Mr. Baum would not be considered independent because he currently serves as our Chief Executive Officer, and Dr. Kammer is not independent because of certain advisory relationships.
