During February and March, we initiated strategic changes to our organisational structure intended to reduce our expenditure on early stage
research projects and general and administrative activities. As a result of these changes, the role of Chief Scientific Officer has been eliminated (made redundant) and Dr. David Gearing, who has served in this role, has left the Company
effective March 10, 2017.
In connection with Dr. Gearings termination of employment, we entered a Deed of Separation
dated March 10, 2017, which defines the terms of his voluntary redundancy, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1.
The Board sincerely
thanks Dr. Gearing for his contribution to the Company and wishes him every success for the future.
The current Officers of Nexvet
are; Dr. Mark Heffernan Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Damian Lismore Chief Financial Officer, Ms. Geraldine Farrell General Counsel & Vice President of Operations and Dr. Juergen Horn Chief
Product Development Officer.
