CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

General

Our Board of Directors believes that good corporate governance is important to ensure that Cesca Therapeutics Inc. is managed for the long-term benefit of our stockholders. This section describes key corporate governance guidelines and practices that we have adopted. Complete copies of our corporate governance guidelines, committee charters and code of ethical conduct described below are available under the investor information section of our website at www.cescatherapeutics.com.

Board Operating and Governance Guidelines 

Our Board of Directors has adopted a number of operating and governance guidelines, including the following:

Board Leadership Structure

Craig Moore, an independent director, serves as our Chairman of the Board. The Board has had the same individual serve as Chief Executive Officer and Board chairman in the past, but does not believe that structure to be the most desirable structure for the Company at this time. The Board views independent oversight of management as an important component of an effective board of directors and believes that a separated Chief Executive Officer and Chairman structure provides the Board with the greatest diversity of ideas and experience. The Chairman of the Board is responsible for coordinating the Board’s activities, including the scheduling of meetings of the full Board, scheduling executive sessions of the non-employee directors and setting relevant items on the agenda (in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer as necessary or appropriate). The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for setting the strategic direction for the Company and the day to day leadership and performance of the Company.

Risk Oversight

The Board has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing risk management. The Board regularly reviews information regarding the Company’s liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. The Company’s Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company’s executive compensation plans and arrangements. The Audit Committee oversees management of risks relating to financial reporting, internal controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Governance and Nominating Committee oversees the management of risks associated with corporate governance, the independence of the Board of Directors and potential conflicts of interest. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board of Directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks.

Governance and Nominating Committee

The Governance and Nominating Committee was formed to address general governance and policy oversight; succession planning; to identify qualified individuals to become prospective members of our Board of Directors and make recommendations regarding nominations for the Board of Directors; to advise the Board with respect to appropriate composition of Board committees; to advise the Board about and develop and recommend to the Board appropriate corporate governance documents and assist the Board in implementing guidelines; to oversee the annual evaluation of the Board and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer, and to perform such other functions as the Board may assign to the committee from time to time. The Governance and Nominating Committee has a Charter which is available on our website at www.cescatherapeutics.com. The Governance and Nominating Committee consists of three independent directors: Mr. Moore (Governance and Nominating Committee Chairman), Dr. Rao and Mr. Rhein.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors makes recommendations regarding the retention of the independent registered public accounting firm, reviews the scope of the annual audit undertaken by our independent registered public accounting firm and the progress and results of their work, reviews our financial statements, and oversees the internal controls over financial reporting and corporate programs to ensure compliance with applicable laws. The Audit Committee reviews the services performed by the independent registered public accounting firm and determines whether they are compatible with maintaining the registered public accounting firm's independence. The Audit Committee has a Charter, which is reviewed annually and as may be required due to changes in industry accounting practices or the promulgation of new rules or guidance documents. The Audit Committee Charter is available on the Company’s website at www.cescatherapeutics.com. The Audit Committee consists of three independent directors as determined by NASDAQ rules: Mr. Rhein (Audit Committee Chairman), Mr. Moore and Dr. Rao. Mr. Moore is qualified as an Audit Committee Financial Expert as defined in Regulation S-K Item 407(d)(5)(ii) and applicable NASDAQ rules.

Compensation Committee Report

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviews and approves executive compensation policies and practices, reviews salaries and bonuses for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and other Named Executive Officers (“NEO”) administers the Company’s stock option plans and other benefit plans, and considers other matters as may, from time to time, be referred to them by the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee has a charter which is available on the Company’s website at www.cescatherapeutics.com. The Compensation Committee consists of three independent directors: Dr. Rao (Compensation Committee Chairman), Mr. Moore and Mr. Rhein.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our Compensation Committee served at any time as an officer or employee of ours. In addition, none of our executive officers serves as a member of the compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our Compensation Committee.

Stockholders may send communications to our Board of Directors by mail to the Chairman of our Board of Directors, Cesca Therapeutics Inc., 2711 Citrus Road, Rancho Cordova, California 95742.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act requires our executive officers and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of our common stock, to file reports regarding ownership of, and transactions in, our securities with the Securities and Exchange Commission and to provide us with copies of those filings. Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us we believe that during the year ended June 30, 2016, all filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater that 10% beneficial owners were complied with except for Mr. Bruch, Ms. Ellner, Mr. Moore, Dr. Rao, Dr. Xu and Ms. Yishu Li who each had one late report. Ms. Li is the sole stockholder of Boyalife Hong Kong and the spouse of Dr. Xu.

Code of Ethics

We have adopted a code of ethics that applies to all employees, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Controller or any person performing similar functions. A copy of our code of ethics can be found on our website at www.cescatherapeutics.com. The Company will report any amendment or waiver to the code of ethics on our website within five (5) days.

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control

Our named executive officers have certain change of control rights under employment agreements or current company policy. The Compensation Committee considers these policies to provide the named executive officers with the ability to make appropriate, informed decisions on strategy and direction of the Company that may adversely impact their particular positions, but nevertheless are appropriate for the Company and its stockholders. Our Compensation Committee believes that companies should provide reasonable severance benefits to employees, recognizing that it may be difficult for them to find comparable employment within a short period of time and that severance arrangements may be necessary to attract highly qualified officers in a competitive hiring environment.

The following table describes the potential payments upon a hypothetical termination without cause, resignation for good reason or due to a change in control of the Company on June 30, 2016 for the NEOs. The actual amounts that may be paid upon an executive’s termination of employment can only be determined at the actual time of such termination.

The Company has adopted an Executive Change of Control Policy, applicable to executive officers and vice presidents who do not have employment agreements. Under such policy, a “change of control” means an event involving one transaction or a related series of transactions in which one of the following occurs:
