Item 1.02 Termination of a Material Definitive Agreement.
On October 20, 2022, SCYNEXIS, Inc. announced that it is taking a new strategic direction to refocus its resources on the clinical development of ibrexafungerp for severe, hospital-based indications where higher long-term returns are expected, given the promising data generated to date in refractory fungal infections, including
Candida auris,
and the anticipated first approval in the hospital setting in 2024. In connection with this new strategic direction, SCYNEXIS intends to out-license BREXAFEMME
®
for vaginal yeast infections and is actively pursuing a U.S. commercialization partner. During this process, SCYNEXIS will wind down its promotional activities for BREXAFEMME, while keeping BREXAFEMME on the market and available to patients.
With the change in strategic direction,
SCYNEXIS no longer is in need of the commercialization services provided by its contracted commercial sales partner, Amplity Health, and SCYNEXIS is in ongoing discussions to terminate the Master Services Agreement by and between SCYNEXIS and Amplity, Inc. When the parties enter into a final termination agreement, SCYNEXIS will file a Form 8-K announcing the terms.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
Retirement of Chief Executive Officer
On October 14, 2022, Dr. Marco Taglietti announced to SCYNEXIS, Inc. that he plans to retire
and will leave his position as President and Chief Executive Officer of SCYNEXIS, and will step down from the SCYNEXIS Board of Directors, on December 31, 2022. In connection with his retirement, on October 20, 2022, SCYNEXIS and Dr. Taglietti entered into a separation agreement pursuant to which Dr. Taglietti will receive separation benefits consistent with the payment and severance benefits set forth his employment agreement and, in addition, the post-termination exercise period of his stock options to purchase shares of SCYNEXIS common stock has been extended from 90 days to four years. Dr. Taglietti's employment agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.27 to SCYNEXIS's Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2015.
Appointment of New Chief Executive Officer
On October 20, 2022, SCYNEXIS announced that David Angulo, M.D., SCYNEXIS's Chief Medical Officer, will become SCYNEXIS's President and Chief Executive Officer and become a member of the Board of Directors effective January 1, 2023.
In connection with this action, on October 19, 2022 SCYNEXIS and Dr. Angulo entered into an employment
agreement pursuant to which Dr. Angulo will receive an annual base salary of $565,000, a discretionary annual performance bonus of up to 55% of his base salary, a stock option to purchase 165,000 shares of SCYNEXIS common stock at an exercise price equal to the closing price of SCYNEXIS common stock on the date of grant, vesting over four years, and a restricted stock unit award to acquire 110,000 shares of SCYNEXIS common stock vesting over three years. In addition, the employment agreement provides for severance benefits, such that in the event that SCYNEXIS terminates Dr. Angulo's employment agreement other than for "just cause" or Dr. Angulo resigns for "good reason" (each as defined in the agreement), other than within three months prior to, or 12 months after, a change of control of SCYNEXIS, Dr. Angulo will receive as severance 18 months base salary, 18 months accelerated vesting of equity awards, and up to 18 months COBRA benefits.

SCYNEXIS's
Chief Medical Officer since June 2015.
