Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On March 21, 2025, Elicio Therapeutics, Inc. (the "Company") appointed Preetam Shah, Ph.D., M.B.A., as the Company's Chief Strategy and Financial Officer effective as of March 24, 2025 (the "Effective Date"). Effective April 1, 2025, Dr. Shah will also serve as the Company's Principal Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer.
Dr. Shah, age 53, previously served as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Business Officer of Cidara Therapeutics, Inc., a publicly traded biotechnology company, from September 2021 to August 2024 and Chief Financial Officer and Principal Accounting Officer from August 2024 to February 2025. Prior to that, Dr. Shah served as Executive Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer at Brainstorm Cell Therapeutics, Inc. ("Brainstorm"), a publicly traded biotechnology company, from September 2019 to August 2021. Prior to Brainstorm, Dr. Shah spent over six years as an investment banker advising healthcare companies on equity, debt and M&A transactions; holding senior roles at banks, including Barclays Capital PLC., from June 2016 to September 2019, and Canaccord Genuity Inc., from July 2013 to May 2016. From 2010 to 2013, Dr. Shah founded Saisarva LLC, a healthcare consulting firm. During this period, he also acted as a consultant for healthcare-focused private equity firms and hedge funds. From 2006 to 2009, Dr. Shah served as Vice President, U.S. Operations and Investments at Reliance Capital USA Ventures LLC, an affiliate of Reliance ADA Group Companies, where he was responsible for making early-stage venture investments in healthcare companies. Dr. Shah completed his post-doctoral fellowship in Infectious Diseases from Stanford University School of Medicine. He holds a Ph.D. in Microbiology from the University of Mississippi Medical Center, an M.B.A. in Finance from the Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, and a B.A. in Mathematics and in Biology from McDaniel College.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Dr. Shah and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as an officer of the Company. Dr. Shah does not have any family relationship with any director or other executive officer of the Company and is not party to any related party transactions required to be reported pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
In connection with his appointment, the Company entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Shah, dated March 21, 2025 (the "Shah Employment Agreement"). Pursuant to the Shah Employment Agreement, Dr. Shah will receive an annual base salary of $480,000, which can be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Company's board of directors or a committee thereof (the "Board"). Dr. Shah is also eligible for an annual performance bonus awarded at the discretion of the Board, with his target bonus equal to 40% of his base salary upon achievement of goals to be established by the Board. The Shah Employment Agreement also provides for an initial option grant to Dr. Shah in connection with the commencement of his employment (the "Initial Option Grant"). The Initial Option Grant will be for an amount of shares equal to 1.2% of the total shares of common stock of the Company outstanding as of April 15, 2025, the grant date of the option. Such Initial Option Grant shall vest over four years with 25% vesting on the first anniversary of his starting date of employment and the remainder vesting in 36 equal monthly installments thereafter, subject to Dr. Shah being employed or in continuous service to the Company as provided in the Company's 2024 Inducement Incentive Award Plan through each such vesting date.
