Pe
rformance Focus
. We have designed our executive compensation program to have substantial elements that are performance-based. Our cash bonus plan is tied to corporate strategic and financial goals. The plan is broad-based and applies to all employees and executives.
|
•
|
Long-Term Equity Incentives
. In April 2018, our board of directors approved performance option grants to our employees including our named executive officers, to align compensation to the strategic direction of our company. Under the grant agreements, vesting is contingent on our achievement of four long-term goals that are
tied to key company goals over the next three years, which,
if achieved, we believe will maximize shareholder value. We grant equity awards broadly among our employee population on an annual basis to encourage an ownership culture and align management and our employees with our stockholders' interests. Historically, we have used a mix of stock options and restricted stock and our equity awards have had multi-year vesting periods, generally vesting over a four-year period, designed to encourage our employees and executives to focus on the long-term performance of our stock price. In addition to these time-based equity awards, in 2018 we granted options with performance-based vesting, as described above.
|
•
|
Executive and Director Stock Ownership and Share Retention Guidelines
. We have executive stock ownership guidelines that require our chief executive officer to own shares of our common stock with a value equal to 6x his base salary and each other named executive officer to own shares of our common stock with a value equal to 1x his respective base salary, as calculated under our policy. Each named executive officer is required to retain 50% of net after tax shares obtained via the vesting of any full-value stock award until the named executive officer meets our prescribed ownership guidelines. These guidelines are in addition to our non-employee director stock ownership guidelines that require each of our directors to own shares of our common stock with a value equal to 3x the non-employee director annual retainer.
|
•
|
Pay Practices
. We do not use many common pay practices considered to be unfriendly to stockholders. For example, we limit the perquisites that we make available to our named executive officers and we do not have excess parachute payment tax gross-up provisions in any executive compensation arrangements, including our arrangements with our chief executive officer.
|
•
|
Risk Assessment
. Our compensation committee has reviewed our incentive compensation programs and discussed the concept of risk as it relates to our compensation program. We believe that the key features of our programs reflect sound risk management practices and that we have allocated our compensation among base salary and short and long-term compensation target opportunities in such a way as to not encourage excessive risk taking. We use risk mitigating features in our compensation programs, including that our 2018 cash bonus plan included a maximum payout for our executive officers of 150% of target.

In the first quarter of 2018, we reached our enrollment target for the ORION-9, ORION-10, and ORION-11 Phase III clinical trials of inclisiran ahead of schedule by 14 weeks, 10 weeks, and 14 weeks, respectively. These pivotal trials are designed to confirm inclisiran's safety and efficacy, as well as provide data required for New Drug Application and Marketing Authorization Application submissions in the United States and Europe, respectively.
|
•
|
In each of January 2018, March 2018, June 2018, and September 2018, the Independent Data Monitoring Committee (IDMC) for the ongoing inclisiran Phase III clinical trials conducted its planned reviews of un-blinded safety and efficacy data from the trials, and recommended that the trials continue as designed and conducted, without modification. A fifth and sixth
planned review of un-blinded safety and efficacy data from the trials was conducted by the IDMC in January 2019 and April 2019, respectively, with the same recommendation that the trials continue as designed and conducted, without modification.
|
•
|
In January 2018, we announced that we had achieved commercial scale manufacturing for inclisiran.
|
•
|
In October 2018, we, together with Oxford University in the United Kingdom and the TIMI Study Group in the United States, commenced the ORION-4 cardiovascular outcomes trial to assess whether inclisiran, compared to placebo, reduces recurrent major adverse cardiovascular events in approximately 15,000 patients with ASCVD.
|
•
|
In November 2018, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office granted our composition of matter patent for inclisiran. This patent is expected to be the principal U.S. patent covering inclisiran and runs through mid-2034, with potential patent term extension and pediatric exclusivity likely to further extend market exclusivity.
|
•
|
In January 2018, we completed the sale of our infectious disease business unit to Melinta Therapeutics, Inc. (Melinta), significantly strengthening our cash position and substantially reducing our cost structure.
|
•
|
In August 2018 and October 2018, we divested non-core legacy assets Angiomax and pre-clinical infectious disease assets, respectively, and discontinued the regulatory authorizations and related commitments regarding Ionsys.
|
•
|
In December 2018, we announced and subsequently completed our offering of $172.5 million aggregate principal amount of 3.50% convertible senior notes due 2024 (inclusive of the over-allotment option). The net proceeds from the offering (inclusive of the full exercise of the over-allotment option) were $166.7 million, after deducting the commissions and our offering expenses, significantly enhancing the company’s capital position.
|
•
|
Performance Focus.
We have designed our executive compensation program to have substantial elements that are performance-based.
|
◦
|
At-Risk Compensation
. In 2018, approximately 92% of our former chief executive officer's compensation consisted of variable compensation elements dependent on our achievement of corporate performance goals and objectives and our stock price performance. In December 2018, Mark Timney was appointed our chief executive officer and approximately 95% of his compensation package is dependent on our achievement of corporate performance goals and objectives and our stock price performance.
|
◦
|
Annual Cash Compensation
. Our annual cash bonus plan is tied to corporate strategic and financial goals. The plan is broad-based and applies to all employees and executives.
|
◦
|
Equity Incentives
. In April 2018, our board of directors approved performance option grants to our employees, including our named executive officers, to align compensation to the strategic direction of our company. Under the grant agreements, vesting is contingent on our achievement of four long-term goals that are
tied to key company goals over the next three years, which,
if achieved, we believe will maximize shareholder value. In 2018, a significant majority of the equity granted to employees, including our named executive officers, was performance-vesting based.
|
•
|
Executive and Director Stock Ownership and Share Retention Guidelines.
We have adopted executive stock ownership guidelines that require our chief executive officer to own shares of our common stock with a value equal to 6x his base salary and each other named executive officer to own shares of our common stock with a value equal to 1x his respective base salary, as calculated under our policy. Each named executive officer is required to retain 50% of net after tax shares obtained via the vesting of any full-value stock award until the named executive officer meets our prescribed ownership guidelines.
|
•
|
Risk Assessment.
Our compensation committee has reviewed our incentive compensation programs and discussed the concept of risk as it relates to our compensation program.
We believe our approach to goal setting, setting of targets with payouts at multiple levels of performance, and evaluation of performance results assist in mitigating excessive or inappropriate risk-taking. Key features of our programs reflect sound risk management practices. We believe we have allocated our compensation among base salary and short- and long-term compensation target opportunities in such a way as to not encourage excessive risk-taking. Further, with respect to our incentive compensation programs, compensation is generally linked to both corporate performance and individual performance. Our corporate targets are applicable to our executives and employees alike, regardless of business unit. We believe this encourages consistent behavior across the organization, rather than establishing different performance metrics depending on a person's position in the company or their business unit. The mix of equity award instruments used under our long-term incentive
program
includes full value stock awards, which also mitigate risk. Finally, we believe that the multi-year vesting of our equity awards properly account for the time horizon of risk.
|
•
|
Independent Compensation Committee and Consultant.
Our compensation committee, which is composed entirely of independent directors, provides independent oversight of our compensation programs. Our compensation committee uses an independent executive compensation consulting firm that reports directly to the committee and provides no other services for the company.
|
•
|
Stockholder Engagement.
The company is committed to open and regular communication with our stockholders, and takes the opportunity to engage with stockholders to understand their perspectives.
|
•
|
Limited Perquisites.
Our named executive officers receive only limited perquisites.
|
•
|
No Tax Gross-ups.
We do not have excess parachute payment tax or other tax gross-up provisions in our executive compensation arrangements, including our arrangements with our chief executive officer.
|
•
|
No “Single-Trigger" Change-in-Control Protections.
Change-in-control protections for our named executive officers are limited to "double-trigger" arrangements.
|
•
|
No Guaranteed Bonuses.
We do not provide guaranteed bonuses to our named executive officers.
|
•
|
No Hedging or Pledging of Company Stock.
Our insider trading policy expressly bars ownership of financial instruments or participation in investment strategies that hedge the economic risk of owning our stock and prohibits the purchase of our securities on margin, the borrowing against our securities held in a margin account, and the pledge of our securities as collateral for a loan, except in circumstances where the person that wishes to pledge our securities as collateral for a loan clearly demonstrates the financial capacity to repay the loan without resort to the pledged securities and receives the approval of our chief financial officer or general counsel.
|
•
|
attract, retain, and motivate the best possible executive talent;
|
•
|
ensure that executive compensation is aligned with our corporate strategies and business objectives;
|
•
|
promote the achievement of key strategic and financial performance measures by linking cash and equity incentives to the achievement of measurable corporate and individual performance goals; and
|
•
|
align executives' incentives with the creation of long-term stockholder value.
|
•
|
industry focus, with targeted companies operating in the biopharmaceutical industry;
|
•
|
stage of operations, with targeted companies having clinical stage products;
|
•
|
market capitalization targeted from approximately 1/3x to approximately 3x our market value at the time of the compensation committee's evaluation; and
|
•
|
headcount targeted from approximately 1/3x to approximately 3x our headcount at the time of the compensation committee's evaluation.

The value of accelerated restricted stock vesting is calculated by multiplying the number of shares subject to restricted stock awards for which vesting would be accelerated by $19.14, the closing price per share of our common stock on The NASDAQ Global Select Market on December 31, 2018 (or, in the case of Mr. Cox, $27.13, the closing price on March 15, 2019, the date of Mr. Cox’s termination of employment with us). No value is attributable in this column to any accelerated option vesting because all unvested stock options held by named executive officers were underwater on December 31, 2018 (or, in the case of Mr. Cox, on March 15, 2019).

The amount in this column represents an estimate for outplacement services based on rates charged to senior executives by our recommended outplacement vendor. Named executive officers are able to use the vendor of their choice, so actual amounts paid for outplacement services may vary.
|

|
As provided in each of the named executive officer’s severance agreement, in the event any payments to the named executive officers are subject to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, the payments will be subject to a contingent cutback whereby the payments will be automatically reduced so that no portion is subject to the excise tax, unless payment of the full amount taking into account all taxes would be greater than the reduced amount. The figures in the table above do not take account of any potential cutback.

For purposes of identifying the median employee from our employee population, we considered each employee’s “compensation” to consist of the employee’s base salary as of December 31, 2018, actual annual cash bonus paid in 2018 and grant date value of actual equity awards granted in 2018. We selected these compensation elements as our consistently applied compensation measure as they represent the principal forms of compensation paid to most of our employees.
|
•
|
We annualized the compensation of all permanent full-time and part-time employees who were hired in 2018, including Mr. Timney, but did not work for us for the entire fiscal year. We applied an exchange rate as of December 31, 2018, to convert all international currencies into U.S. dollars.
