Our “Named Executive Officers” for the year ended September 30, 2024 consist of Mr. Mazur, Mr. Holubiak, our Secretary, and Dr. Czuczman, our Chief Medical Officer, who were the two most highly compensated executive officers other than Mr. Mazur serving as executive officers as of September 30, 2024.

General Compensation Process

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the elements and levels of compensation for our Named Executive Officers. In doing so, the Compensation Committee reviews our corporate performance against financial and corporate achievement measures, assesses individual performance and evaluates recommendations of the Chief Executive Officer regarding compensation for other Named Executive Officers. Deliberations of the Compensation Committee may occur within a meeting of the full Board of Directors at which all members of the Compensation Committee are in attendance and the Board may take action in such meetings upon the advice of the Compensation Committee Chair and/or its members.

To assist in its deliberations regarding executive compensation, the Compensation Committee may engage the services of an independent executive compensation advisor. The Company would anticipate that the Compensation Committee may work with such independent executive compensation advisor to develop a peer group of companies within the biotechnology and pharmaceuticals industries.

Components of Compensation

The key components of our executive compensation package are cash compensation (salary) and long-term equity incentive awards. These components are administered with the goal of providing total compensation that recognizes meaningful differences in individual performance, is competitive, varies the opportunity based on individual and corporate performance, and is valued by our Named Executive Officers.

Base Salary

It is the Compensation Committee’s objective to set a competitive rate of annual base salary for each Named Executive Officer. The Compensation Committee believes competitive base salaries are necessary to attract and retain top quality executives, since it is common practice for public companies to provide their named executive officers with a guaranteed annual component of compensation that is not subject to performance risk. The Compensation Committee, on its own or with outside consultants may establish salary ranges for our Named Executive Officers, with minimum to maximum opportunities that cover the normal range of market variability. The actual base salary for each Named Executive Officer is then derived from those salary ranges based on his responsibility, tenure and past performance and market comparability. Annual base salaries for the Named Executive Officers are reviewed and approved by the Compensation Committee. Changes in base salary are based on the scope of an individual’s current job responsibilities, individual performance in the previous performance year, target pay position relative to the peer group, and our salary budget guidelines. The Compensation Committee reviews established goals and objectives and determines an individual’s achievement of those goals and objectives and considers the recommendations provided by the Chief Executive Officer to assist it in determining appropriate salaries for the Named Executive Officers other than the Chief Executive Officer.

The base salary information for our Named Executive Officers for fiscal 2023 and 2024 is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table below.

Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards

We believe that long-term corporate success is achieved with an ownership culture that encourages high performance by our employees through the use of stock-based awards. Our 2023 and 2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plans were each established to provide our employees, including our Named Executive Officers, with incentives to help align employees’ interests with the interests of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of stock-based awards offers the best approach to achieving our compensation goals of incentivizing long-term performance. We have historically elected to use stock options as the primary long-term equity incentive vehicle; however, the Compensation Committee has the ability under our stock plans to grant restricted stock and other equity awards as part of our long-term incentive program, although no such awards have been granted to date. We have selected the Black-Scholes method of valuation for stock-based compensation. The Compensation Committee generally oversees the administration of our stock plans.

Stock Options

Our 2024 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) authorizes us to grant options to purchase shares of common stock to our employees, directors and consultants. Our 2023 Omnibus Stock Incentive Plan (the “2023 Plan”) authorizes us to grant the same. Upon the adoption of the 2024 Plan, we ceased granting awards under the 2023 Plan.

The Compensation Committee reviews and approves stock option awards to Named Executive Officers based upon a review of competitive compensation data, an assessment of individual performance, a review of each Named Executive Officer’s existing long-term incentives, and retention considerations. Periodic stock option grants are made at the discretion of the Compensation Committee to eligible employees and, in appropriate circumstances, after consideration of any recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer.

Stock options granted to employees have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the day of grant, typically vest over a time or upon the achievement of certain performance-based milestones and are based upon continued employment, and generally expire 10 years after the date of grant. The fair value of the options granted to the Named Executive Officers and reflected in the Summary Compensation Table is determined in accordance with the Black-Scholes method of valuation for share-based compensation. Incentive stock options also include certain other terms necessary to ensure compliance with the Code.

We expect to continue to use stock options as a long-term incentive vehicle because:

●

Stock options align the interests of our Named Executive Officers with those of our stockholders, supporting a pay-for performance culture, foster employee stock ownership, and focus the management team on increasing value for our stockholders.

●

Stock options are performance-based. All of the value received by the recipient of a stock option is based on the growth of the stock price. In addition, stock options can be issued with vesting based on the achievement of specified milestones although we have not used such performance-based vesting to date.

●

Stock options help provide balance to the overall executive compensation program as base salary and annual bonuses focus on short-term compensation, while stock options focus on long-term compensation.

●

The vesting period of stock options over time encourages executive retention and is designed to increase stockholder value. In determining the number of stock options to be granted to our Named Executive Officers, we take into account the individual’s position, scope of responsibility, ability to affect profits and stockholder value and the individual’s historic and recent performance and the value of stock options in relation to other elements of the individual Named Executive Officer’s total compensation.

Executive Benefits and Perquisites

Our Named Executive Officers are not currently parties to employment agreements. We will consider entering into employment agreements as necessary and advisable. In addition, consistent with our compensation philosophy, we intend to establish benefits for our Named Executive Officers, including medical, dental and life insurance and the ability to contribute to a 401(k) plan. We would expect these benefits to be comparable to benefit levels for comparable companies.

Pension Benefits

We do not maintain any qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans. As a result, none of our Named Executive Officers participate in or have account balances in qualified or non-qualified defined benefit plans sponsored by us. Our Compensation Committee or Board of Directors may elect to adopt qualified or non-qualified benefit plans in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.

Nonqualified Deferred Compensation

None of our Named Executive Officers participate in or have account balances in nonqualified defined contribution plans or other non-qualified deferred compensation plans maintained by us. Our Compensation Committee or Board of Directors may elect to provide our officers and other employees with non-qualified defined contribution or other non-qualified deferred compensation benefits in the future if it determines that doing so is in our best interests.

Option Repricings

We did not engage in any repricings or other modifications to any of our executive officers’ outstanding options during the year ended September 30, 2024.

Director Compensation

Director Compensation for the Fiscal Year ended September 30, 2024

The Board of Directors has not yet approved a compensation plan for non-employee directors. To assist in its deliberations regarding non-employee compensation, the Compensation Committee may engage the services of an independent compensation advisor. The Company would anticipate that the Compensation Committee may work with such independent compensation advisor to develop a peer group of companies within the biotechnology and pharmaceuticals industries.

Also, as part of the non-employee director compensation plan, we anticipate that non-employee directors would be entitled to receive stock options as part of their annual compensation. In July 2023, our non-employee directors were awarded stock options as directors of Citius Pharma because of the time and commitment they had expended on behalf of the development of LYMPHIR while we were a wholly owned subsidiary of Citius Pharma. At September 30, 2024, the following non-employee directors held the following options to purchase shares of Citius common stock: Mr. Dutia, 150,000; Dr. Holuka 150,000; Mr. McGrath, 150,000; and Ms. Webb, 150,000.

There was no director compensation for the year ended September 30, 2024.

Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence

Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Other than as set forth below, there were no transactions since October 1, 2022 to which the Company was or is a party in which:

●

the amount involved exceeded or exceeds the lesser of (i) $120,000 and (ii) one percent of the average of our total assets at year-end for the last two completed fiscal years; and

●

any of our directors or executive officers, any holder of 5% of our capital stock or any member of their immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Procedures for Review and Approval of Transactions with Related Persons

Pursuant to the Audit and Risk Committee charter, the Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for reviewing and approving all related party transactions as defined under Item 404 of Regulation S-K, after reviewing each such transaction for potential conflicts of interests and other improprieties. Our policies and procedures for review and approval of transactions with related persons are in writing in our Code of Ethics and Business Conduct available under the Governance—Governance Documents section of our website at www.citiusonc.com.

Board of Directors Independence

After review of all relevant transactions or relationships between each nominee for director, or any of his or her family members, and the Company, its senior management and Wolf & Company, P.C., its independent registered public accounting firm, the board of directors has determined that all directors of the Company are independent within the meaning of the applicable Nasdaq listing standards, except Leonard Mazur, the Chief Executive Officer and Chairman, Myron Holubiak, the Secretary, and Joel Mayersohn.

Because Citius Pharma continues to control a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock, the Company qualifies as a “controlled company” within the meaning of the corporate governance standards of the Nasdaq. Under these rules, a listed company of which more than 50% of the voting power is held by an individual, group or another company is a “controlled company” and may elect not to comply with certain corporate governance requirements, including the requirements that (i) a majority of the Board consist of “independent directors” as defined under Nasdaq listing rules, (ii) we have a compensation committee composed entirely of independent directors and (iii) we have a nominating/corporate governance committee composed entirely of independent directors.

The Company does not intend to rely on these exemptions but may opt to utilize these exemptions in the future as long as it remains a controlled company. Accordingly, Company stockholders may not have the same protections afforded to stockholders of companies that are subject to all of the corporate governance requirements of Nasdaq.

If the Company ceases to be a “controlled company” in the future, it will be required to comply with the Nasdaq Listing Rules, which may require replacing a number of its directors and may require development of certain other governance-related policies and practices. These and any other actions necessary to achieve compliance with such rules may increase the Company’s legal and administrative costs, will make some activities more difficult, time-consuming, and costly and may also place additional strain on the Company’s personnel, systems and resources.

Item 14. Principal Accountant Fees and Services

Auditor and Audit Committee Matters

Report of the Audit and Risk Committee

The Audit and Risk Committee has reviewed and discussed with management our audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024, which were audited by Wolf & Company, P.C. (“Wolf”), an independent registered public accounting firm. The Audit and Risk Committee discussed with Wolf the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) and the Commission. The Audit and Risk Committee received the written disclosures and letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit and Risk Committee concerning independence, and discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the independent registered public accounting firm’s independence. The Audit and Risk Committee also considered whether the provision of services other than the audit of our financial statements for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2024 were compatible with maintaining the independence of Wolf.

Based on the review and discussions referred to in the foregoing paragraph, the Audit and Risk Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Original Filing.

Our Audit and Risk Committee is currently composed of the following three directors: Mr. McGrath (Chair), Mr. Dutia, and Mr. Smith. All are independent directors as defined in Rules 5605(a)(2) and 5605(c)(2) of the Nasdaq Listing Rules and Section 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. McGrath and Dutia are each an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5)(ii) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. Our Audit and Risk Committee operates under a written charter adopted by the Board, a copy of which is available under Governance—Governance Documents section of our website at www.citiusonc.com.

Wolf has served as our auditor since we began operations in April 2022 and audited our consolidated financial statements for the years ended September 30, 2022 through September 30, 2024.
