Item 5.02(e). Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On August 6, 2012, a committee of the Board of Directors of Organovo Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), granted restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) under the Organovo Holdings, Inc. 2012 Equity Incentive Plan to the following executive officers:

 

Executive

 

Title

 

Vesting Start Date

 

Restricted Stock Units

 

Restricted Stock Units

            (time based)   (performance based)

Keith Murphy

  Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President   February 13, 2012   200,000   200,000

Barry D. Michaels

  Chief Financial Officer   August 23, 2011   200,000   —  

The time-based RSU will vest over four (4) years in equal annual installments with twenty-five percent (25%) vesting after each of the 12th, 24th, 36th, and 48th monthly anniversaries of the Vesting Start Date. The performance-based RSUs will vest upon the achievement of certain performance measures prior to December 31, 2014, including assuring the Company has adequate working capital to support its business plan, the entry into certain commercial arrangements, the satisfaction of all required qualifications for listing the Company’s Common Stock on one of the national stock exchanges and certain analyst coverage of, and reports on, the Company. The actual number of shares that vest may be 0% to 100% of the 200,000 performance-based RSUs granted, depending on the achievement of the performance measures. The unvested portion of the time-based or performance-based RSUs will generally be forfeited upon termination of employment. In the case of a change in control of the Company, if either Messrs. Murphy or Michaels is terminated without cause or terminate their employment for good reason during the 12 month period following the change in control, vesting will be accelerated with respect to both the time-based and performance-based RSUs.

In connection with the issuance of the RSUs, the executive officers were issued an executive incentive award agreement. The executive incentive award agreement provides that the executive officer will be allowed to pay applicable federal and state withholding taxes by returning an equivalent number of shares to the Company for cancellation on the applicable vesting date. If the executive officer returns shares to the Company for cancellation on an annual vesting date to cover his federal and state withholding taxes, the executive officer will automatically be issued on such vesting date a stock option. The number of shares of common stock subject to a stock option will be equal to the number of shares the executive returns to the Company as payment for applicable federal and state withholding taxes and will be fully vested. The exercise price of the stock option will be equal to the closing sale price of the Company’s common stock on the applicable vesting date.

The foregoing summary description of the terms and conditions of the RSUs and the Executive Incentive Agreements does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the forms of Restricted Stock Unit Agreements and the form of Executive Incentive Award Agreement included with Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated by reference herein.
