Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires a company’s directors, officers and stockholders who beneficially own more than 10% of any class of equity securities of the company registered pursuant to Section 12 of the Exchange Act, collectively referred to herein as the Reporting Persons, to file initial statements of beneficial ownership of securities and statements of changes in beneficial ownership of securities with respect to the company’s equity securities with the SEC. All Reporting Persons are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all reports that such Reporting Persons file with the SEC pursuant to Section 16(a).

Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms received by us and upon written representations of the Reporting Persons received by us, we believe that there has been compliance with all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our Reporting Persons.

Code of Business Ethics and Conduct

On March 17, 2003, our board adopted a Code of Business Ethics and Conduct, which may also be found on our website at www.senesco.com. Our Code of Ethics contains written standards designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:

honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;

full, fair, accurate, timely, and understandable disclosure in reports and documents filed with the SEC and in other public communications made by the Company;

compliance with applicable governmental laws, rules and regulations;

the prompt internal reporting of violations of our Code of Ethics to an appropriate person or persons identified in our Code of Ethics; and

accountability for adherence to our Code of Ethics.

Each of our employees, officers and directors completed a signed certification to document his or her understanding of and compliance with our Code of Ethics.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee was established in July 1999. On March 11, 2011, our board adopted an Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter. The primary responsibilities of our Audit Committee include:

appointing, approving the compensation of, and assessing the independence of our independent registered public accounting firm;

overseeing the work of our independent registered public accounting firm, including through the receipt and consideration of certain reports from our independent registered public accounting firm;

reviewing and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm our annual and quarterly financial statements and related disclosures;

monitoring our internal control over financial reporting, disclosure controls and procedures and code of business conduct and ethics;

discussing our risk management policies;

establishing policies regarding hiring employees from our independent registered public accounting firm and procedures for the receipt and retention of accounting related complaints and concerns;

meeting independently with our independent registered public accounting firm and management; and

preparing the audit committee report required by SEC rules.

Our Audit Committee is currently comprised of John N. Braca, David Rector and Rudolf Stalder. Mr. Braca currently serves as the chairman of the Audit Committee. The NYSE Amex currently requires an Audit Committee comprised solely of independent directors. Messrs. Braca, Rector and Stalder are “independent” members of our board as defined in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, and Section 803 of the NYSE Amex Company Guide. In addition, our board of directors has determined that Mr. Braca satisfies the definition of an audit committee “financial expert” as set forth in Item 407(d) (5) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC. Our Audit Committee held five (5) meetings during Fiscal 2011.

Item 11.

Executive Compensation.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis explains the principles underlying our compensation policies and decisions and the principal elements of compensation paid to our executive officers during Fiscal 2011 and as anticipated for Fiscal 2012. Our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer and all of our other executive officers included in the Summary Compensation Table will be referred to as the “named executive officers” for purposes of this discussion.

Compensation Objectives and Philosophy

The Compensation Committee, also referred to herein as the Committee, of the board is responsible for the following:

annually reviewing and approving, or recommending for approval by our board, the corporate goals and objectives relevant to executive officer compensation;

reviewing and approving, or recommending for approval by our board, the salaries and incentive compensation of our executive officers;

preparing the Compensation Committee report, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis;

administering our 2008 Incentive Compensation Plan, or similar stock plan adopted by our stockholders; and

reviewing and making recommendations to our board with respect to director compensation.

As part of this process, the Committee seeks to accomplish the following objectives with respect to our executive compensation programs:

to motivate, recruit and retain executives capable of meeting our strategic objectives;

to provide incentives to ensure superior executive performance and successful financial results for us; and

to align the interests of executives with the long-term interests of our stockholders.

The Committee seeks to achieve these objectives by:

linking a substantial portion of compensation to our achievement of long-term and short-term financial objectives and the individual’s contribution to the attainment of those objectives;

providing long-term equity-based incentives and encouraging direct share ownership by executives with the intention of providing incentive-based compensation to encourage a long-term focus on company profitability and stockholder value; and

understanding the marketplace and establishing a compensation structure that is adjusted for our position in the marketplace and our current financial condition and limited capital resources.

Setting Executive Compensation

For Fiscal 2011, the Committee’s objective was to target each component of compensation listed below to be competitive with comparable positions at peer group companies, and to target the total annual compensation of each named executive officer at the appropriate level for comparable positions at the competitive peer group companies.

During the compensation review process for Fiscal 2011, the Committee engaged, J. Richard and Co., also referred to herein as J. Richard, a nationally recognized compensation consulting firm, as its compensation consultant, on an as needed basis regarding its proposed programs and approaches to compensation during Fiscal 2011, for which J. Richard was compensated. Other than as described above, J. Richard did not provide any additional services to the Committee or Senesco for Fiscal 2011, and compensation to J. Richard for services rendered in Fiscal 2011 was less than $120,000. In addition, the Committee consulted with J. Richard in connection with its plans for Fiscal 2012.

The Committee elected to identify various companies in the biotech sector it felt were somewhat close in scope of operation to Senesco. It became evident, as in prior years, that due to the key banner points listed above (the breadth of operations in general, executive officers scope of duties and responsibilities, position in the life cycle, financial responsibilities, capitalization and size of management staff) it is very difficult to identify such public entities for comparative purposes. For Fiscal 2011, the companies we elected to evaluate were as follows: Adolor Corporation (ADLR); MDRNA Inc. (MRNA); Anesiva Inc. (ANSV); Santarus Inc. (SNTS); Sequenom, Inc.(SQNM); Cubist (CBST); Lexicon (LXRX); and Targacept, Inc. (TRGT). For Fiscal 2012, the companies we elected to evaluate were as follows: Access Pharma (ACCP.OB); Adventrx (ANX); Poniard (PARD); Cortex (CORX.OB); Callisto (CLSP.OB); RXi Pharmaceuticals (RXII); Titan Pharma (TTNP.OB); Oxigene (OXGN); Entremed (ENMD); and Silence Therapuetics (SLNCF). In selecting companies to survey for such compensation purposes, the Committee considered many factors not directly associated with the stock price performance of those companies, such as geographic location, development stage, organizational structure and market capitalization. For this reason, there is not a meaningful correlation between the companies included within the peer group identified for comparative compensation purposes and the companies included within the RDG Micro Biotechnology Index.

In determining the compensation of each named executive officer, the Committee also considers a number of other factors, including our recent performance and the named executive officer’s individual performance, the Chief Executive Officer’s recommendations and the importance of the executive’s position and role in relation to execution of our strategic plan. There is no pre-established policy for allocation of compensation between cash and non-cash components or between short-term and long-term components. Instead, the Committee determines the mix of compensation for each named executive officer based on its review of the competitive data, its subjective analysis of that individual’s performance and contribution to our financial performance, the financial strength and outlook of Senesco and, most of all, what is considered fair and reasonable based on the scope of operations and responsibilities of the officer. For the Chief Executive Officer, for Fiscal 2011, the Committee set his performance targets and compensation levels based upon the input from the Committee’s analysis and from the Chief Executive Officer. For other named executive officers, the Committee sets performance targets and compensation levels after taking into consideration recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer.

Components of Compensation

For Fiscal 2011, our executive compensation program included the following components:

base salary;

annual short-term equity incentives; and

a continuation of the long-term equity incentive program.

Currently, for Fiscal 2012, our executive compensation program includes the following components:

base salary;

annual short-term equity incentives; and

a continuation of the long-term equity incentive program.

The Committee seeks to align the named executive officers’ and stockholders’ interests in a pay for performance environment. The Committee also reviews the compensation metrics of the CEO versus the other named executive officers. Although certain percentages and allocations may differ, the overall cash and equity compensation package of the CEO is not materially greater than the overall cash and equity compensation package of each other named executive officer. On average, a large portion of an executive officer's total compensation is at risk, with the amount actually paid tied to achievement of pre-established objectives and individual goals.

Base Salary

In General – It is the Committee’s objective to set a competitive rate of annual base salary or consulting fees for each named executive officer. The 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 executive officers with a guaranteed annual component of compensation that is not subject to performance risk. However, the Committee recognizes that we are still a development stage company, with little to no revenue currently and believes that developing too rigid of a compensation structure can become detrimental to our progress.

When compared to comparable positions at the competitive peer group companies, it is the Committee’s objective to target the base compensation level of executive officers below the 50th percentile because of our current financial position. Historically, the compensation level for our executive officers has been below the 25 th percentile of competitive peer group companies. However, in determining the compensation of each executive officer, the Committee also considers a number of other factors, including recent Senesco and individual performance, the officer’s position and responsibilities and the CEO’s recommendations (with respect to officers other than the CEO).

Base Salary for Fiscal 2011 – For Fiscal 2011, after review of the factors discussed above, the following named executive officers’ salaries were increased as follows:

		2011		2010		%
Name	Title	Salary		Salary		Increase

Joel P. Brooks	Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer	$	164,800	$	160,000		3.0	%

Richard Dondero	Vice-President of Research and Development	$	147,300	$	143,000		3.0	%

The Committee did not change the salary of Leslie J. Browne, Ph.D., our President and Chief Executive Officer, due to the fact that Dr. Browne’s compensation was recently determined in connection with his appointment to his current positions in May 2010. Additionally, the Committee did not change the consulting fee for John E. Thompson, Ph.D., our Executive Vice President and Chief Scientific Officer, as such consulting fee will be reviewed and revised, as necessary, by the Committee in connection with the board’s review of our research and development budget for Fiscal 2011.

Base Salary for Fiscal 2012 – For Fiscal 2012, after a review of the factors discussed above, the following named executive officer’s salaries were increased as follows.

		2012			2011			%
Name	Title	Salary			Salary			Increase
Leslie J. Browne, Ph.D.	President and Chief Executive Officer	$	262,500		$	250,000			5.0	%

John E. Thompson, Ph.D.	Executive Vice-President and Chief Scientific Officer	$	67,500	(1)	$	65,000	(1)		3.8	%

Joel P. Brooks	Chief Financial Officer, Secretary and Treasurer	$	170,000		$	164,800			3.0	%

Richard Dondero	Vice-President of Research and Development	$	153,200		$	147,300			4.0	%

(1) Represents consulting fees paid under a consulting agreement.

Annual Bonuses for Fiscal 2011 – There were no bonuses granted for Fiscal 2011.

The Committee wishes to provide additional compensation to all of the named executive officers, including the Chief Executive Officer, through the development of incentive programs based on the named executives performance and attainment of stated objectives that enhance shareholder value in order to (i) link a substantial portion of their compensation to the achievement of short-term and long-term objectives and (ii) to save cash given our limited capital resources.

Annual Bonuses for Fiscal 2012 – Bonuses will be determined at the discretion of the board after the end of the fiscal year based upon the recommendation of the Committee.

Short Term Incentive Equity Awards

In General – A portion of each named executive officer’s compensation is provided in the form of short-term equity awards. It is the Committee’s belief that properly structured equity awards are an effective method of aligning the short-term interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders.

Short-term equity awards were made in the form of incentive stock options, also referred to herein as ISO’s, for tax purposes. The Committee has followed a grant practice of tying equity awards to its annual year-end review of individual performance, its assessment of our performance and our operational results.

Short-Term Incentive Plan for Fiscal 2011 – The Committee, in coordination with our Chief Executive Officer, established our short-term goals and objectives for Fiscal 2011, which included the following:

Contributions relating to the development of our SNS01-T assets:

Submit IND for Phase I/II clinical trial;

Initiate Phase I/II clinical trial;

Plan Phase II clinical trial;

Develop SNS01-T development plan to NDA submission;

Contributions relating to finance objectives:

Maintain sufficient capital resources;

Maintain NYSE Amex compliance;

Increase shareholder communications and enhance investor relations;

Contributions relating to corporate development:

Update corporate strategy; and

Re-align our structure to best implement corporate strategies.

The Committee, working with our Chief Executive Officer, identified additional individual performance goals and objectives for Fiscal 2011 for Messrs. Brooks and Dondero, which primarily included broadening their knowledge base and leadership profile within the scientific and business community of our peers, competitors, clients and customers.

In October 2010, the Committee determined to award the following options to purchase shares of our common stock, par value $0.01, to the following named executive officers in connection with the short-term goals and objectives for Fiscal 2011:

Leslie J. Browne, Ph.D.			725,000
Joel Brooks			425,000
Richard Dondero			425,000
John E. Thompson, Ph.D.			425,000

Such options were granted on November 17, 2010, which was two days after the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2010, and have an exercise price of $0.26, which is equal to the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant. Twenty-five percent (25%) of such options will vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant with the balance vesting at a rate of 1/36 for each month thereafter, unless the Committee has determined that the performance metrics have not been met.

Upon conclusion of Fiscal 2011, the Committee, working with our Chief Executive Officer, evaluated our performance and the performance of our named executive officers against the previously established goals and objectives for Fiscal 2011. Based on such review, the Committee determined that 80% of the Fiscal 2011 goals and objectives were met and 20% of such goals and objectives were not met. The performance level for Fiscal 2011 was considered in connection with the Fiscal 2012 Short-Term Incentive Plan, and the Fiscal 2012 short-term incentive equity awards allocated to each of our named executive officers (as described below) were reduced by 20% of the Fiscal 2011 short-term incentive equity awards granted to each such named executive officer to reflect the unmet goals and objectives for Fiscal 2011.

Short-Term Incentive Plan for Fiscal 2012 – The Committee, in coordination with our Chief Executive Officer, established our short-term goals and objectives for Fiscal 2012, which include the following:

Contributions relating to the development of our SNS01-T assets:

Demonstrate the pre-clinical effects of SNS01-T in combination with certain approved therapeutic products;

Develop an improved SNS01-T formulation;

Complete treatment under the Phase 1b/2a clinical study for SNS01-T in multiple myeloma; and

Plan a clinical study for SNS01-T in B cell cancers in addition to multiple myeloma;

Contributions relating to finance objectives:

Maintain sufficient working capital and plan and execute financing activities; and

Regain and maintain NYSE Amex compliance;

Contributions relating to corporate development:

Expand product portfolio; and

Investigate partnering opportunities.

The foregoing goals and objectives were weighted as follows: 50% for contributions relating to the development of our SNS01-T assets; 25% to contributions relating to finance objectives; and 25% to contributions relating to corporate development. The option awards for each of the foregoing goals and objectives were allotted to the following named executive officers as follows – Dr. Browne: 35%, Mr. Brooks: 20%, Mr. Dondero: 20%, and Dr. Thompson: 20%. Five percent of the option awards allotted for completion of Fiscal 2012 goals and objectives would be allocated at the Committee’s discretion for outstanding performance to assist Senesco in reaching such goals.

The Committee, working with our Chief Executive Officer, identified additional individual performance goals and objectives for Fiscal 2012 for Messrs. Brooks and Dondero. Mr. Brooks’s goals and objectives primarily include raising capital through financings, regaining and maintaining NYSE Amex compliance and increasing Senesco’s trading volume. Mr. Dondero’s goals and objectives primarily include management of Senesco’s clinical trials, initiation of new clinical trials for our SNS01-T assets and expanding our product portfolio. Dr. Thompson’s goals primarily include demonstrating the pre-clinical effects of SNS01-T in combination with certain approved therapeutic products and developing an improved SNS01-T formulation.

In September 2011, the Committee determined to award the following options to purchase shares of our common stock, par value $0.01, to the following named executive officers in connection with the short-term goals and objectives for Fiscal 2012:

Leslie J. Browne, Ph.D.			819,000
Joel Brooks			468,000
Richard Dondero			468,000
John E. Thompson, Ph.D.			468,000

Such options were granted on September 30, 2011, which was two days after the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011, and have an exercise price of $0.23, which is equal to the closing price of the common stock on the date of grant. Twenty-five percent (25%) of such options will vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant with the balance vesting at a rate of 1/36 for each month thereafter, unless the Committee has determined that the performance metrics have not been met.

Long-Term Incentive Equity Awards

In General – A portion of each named executive officer’s compensation is provided in the form of long-term incentive equity awards as set forth in the Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) discussed below. It is the Committee’s belief that properly structured equity awards are an effective method of aligning the long term interests of our named executive officers with those of our stockholders.

Beginning with the LTIP for Fiscal 2008, equity awards have been made in the form of restricted stock units, also referred to herein as RSU’s; however, each executive officer could elect to receive an equity award in the form of stock options. Beginning with Fiscal 2010, equity awards have been made in the form of stock options. Under the LTIP, equity awards are based upon of the completion of certain event milestones (“LTIP Event Milestones”) to be achieved over a period of 3 years as discussed below. Accordingly, any equity awards to the named executive officers under the LTIP were made promptly after the completion of each LTIP Event Milestone based on the level of achievement of the milestones. The Committee has established LTIP grant guidelines for eligible named executive officers based on competitive annual grant data provided by management’s compensation consultant and by J. Richard, the Committee’s compensation consultant.

Long-Term Incentive Plan – For the Fiscal 2008 LTIP period beginning on December 13, 2007 (the “LTIP Effective Date”) and ending on the earlier of (i) the completion of the Third LTIP Event Milestone or (ii) three (3) years from the LTIP Effective Date, LTIP equity grants were to be made to our named executive officers in the form of RSU’s and ISO’s, based on achievement of the LTIP Event Milestones. Each RSU entitled the recipient to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting or upon a designated date or event following such vesting. Each named executive had the option of receiving their RSU grant in the form of RSU’s or ISO’s. If a named executive chose to receive ISO’s in lieu of RSU’s, then such named executive was granted twice as many ISO’s, due to the exercise price of such ISO’s.

The total RSU’s and ISOs in the LTIP pool awarded to our named executive officers was 775,000 shares, which consisted of 225,000 RSU’s and 550,000 ISO’s, representing 3.9% of the outstanding shares as of July 1, 2009.

The LTIP Event Milestones to be achieved, the weighting allocated to each milestone, amount and percentage of the RSU’s and ISOs to be awarded, as adjusted for forfeitures to all the named executive officers as a whole for the completion of each of the three LTIP Event Milestones were as follows:

LTIP Event Milestone	Percentage of LTIP RSU and ISO Award Pool			Total Amount of RSUs and ISO’s Awarded As a Whole to All Named Executive Officers
First LTIP Event Milestone. The Execution of a Research Agreement to Conduct Phase I/II Trials at a Research Facility		20	%		120,000
Second LTIP Event Milestone. The Filing and Acceptance by the U.S. FDA of an investigation new drug application, or IND, by the date set by the Committee		20	%		120,000
Third LTIP Event Milestone. The Successful Completion of Phase I/II Trials Approved by the FDA by the date set by the Committee		60	%		360,000

The LTIP awards for each named executive officer upon the completion of each individual LTIP Event Milestone were to be as follows:

Name	Title	Percentage of Total RSU’s Awarded Upon Completion of a LTIP Event Milestone			Number of RSU’s Awarded upon Completion of First LTIP Event Milestone		Number of RSU’s Awarded upon Completion of Second LTIP Event Milestone		Number of RSU’s Awarded upon Completion of Third LTIP Event Milestone
Joel P. Brooks (1)	Chief Financial Officer, Treasurer and Secretary		10	%		10,000		10,000		30,000
John E. Thompson (2)	Executive Vice-President and Chief Scientific Officer		25	%		50,000		50,000		150,000
Richard Dondero (2)	Vice-President of Research and Development		30	%		60,000		60,000		180,000
Bruce C. Galton(1) (3)	Former President and Chief Executive Officer		25	%		25,000		25,000		75,000
Sascha P. Fedyszyn(1)(4)	Former Vice-President of Corporate Development and Secretary		10	%		10,000		10,000		30,000

(1)

Represents RSU’s.

(2)

Represents ISO’s.

(3)

Mr. Galton resigned from Senesco on November 16, 2009 and, thus his awards set forth above, which were unvested at the time of his resignation, were forfeited.

(4)

Mr. Fedyszyn resigned from Senesco on February 1, 2010 and, thus his awards set forth above, which were unvested at the time of his resignation, were forfeited.

The Committee reviewed the LTIP Event Milestones and determined that the First LTIP Event Milestone had been met and the RSU’s and ISOs related to such event were granted to Messrs. Brooks and Dondero and Dr. Thompson on November 17, 2010, which was two trading days after the filing of our quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2010. Each such option grant had an exercise price of $0.99 per share, the closing selling price of our stock on the grant date. The Committee also determined that none of the remaining LTIP Event Milestones have been met and the RSU’s and Options related to such events expired on December 13, 2010.

Market Timing of Equity Awards

The Compensation Committee does not engage in any market timing of the equity awards made to the executive officers or other award recipients, and accordingly, there is no established practice of timing our awards in advance of the release of favorable financial results or adjusting the award date in connection with the release of unfavorable financial developments affecting our business. In general, we will attempt, when possible, to make equity awards to our executive officers and directors promptly after the release of our financial results. For example, the September 2011 awards were granted on September 30, 2011, which was two trading days after the filing of our annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2011.

Clawback Policy

We are reviewing our current “clawback” policy which provides for recoupment of incentive compensation in certain circumstances in connection with the enactment of recent regulations in that regard and are awaiting final SEC rules and regulations in order to revise our “clawback” policy in compliance with such rules and regulations.

Analysis of Risk Associated with our Compensation Plans

In making decisions regarding compensation program design and pay levels, our Compensation Committee and senior management, working with our Audit Committee, consider many factors, including any potential risks to Senesco and our stockholders. Although a significant portion of our executives’ compensation is performance-based and “at-risk,” we believe our compensation plans are appropriately structured and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on us.

Executive Benefits and Perquisites

In General – The named executive officers are also provided with certain market competitive benefits. They are currently not provided with any perquisites. It is the Committee’s belief that such benefits are necessary for us to remain competitive and to attract and retain top caliber executive officers, since such benefits are typically provided by companies in the biotechnology industry and with other companies with which we compete for executive talent.

Retirement Benefits – The named executive officers may participate in the company-wide 401(k) plan. We do not make any contributions to the 401(k) plan and do not have any additional retirement benefits.

Other Benefits and Perquisites – All administrative employees, including the named executive officers, are eligible to receive standard health, disability, and life insurance. We do not provide any additional benefits and perquisites.

Executive Compensation Agreements

We had previously entered into employment agreements with our executive officers. During Fiscal 2009, the Committee determined that we could in no manner financially support the terms of the various employment agreements in effect. The Committee issued a notice of non-renewal to all named executive officers in effect not renewing the employment agreements moving forward following the various upcoming anniversary dates of each agreement. As such, Mr. Brooks’s employment agreement expired on June 30, 2010, and Mr. Dondero’s employment agreement expired on July 19, 2010. Each of the named executive officers have, following the expiration of their employment agreements, continued as employees on an “at will basis”, meaning that either we or the employees may discontinue their employment with or without notice or cause. The employees’ respective salaries, duties and titles may be adjusted as determined by the Committee. In May 2010, we entered into an employment agreement with Dr. Browne in connection with his appointment as our chief executive officer. Such agreement was entered into with Dr. Browne as part of an inducement to join Senesco and become our President and CEO in May 2010. The terms of the agreement with Dr. Browne provided for six months of severance at his base salary in effect at such time, in the event that Dr. Browne was terminated without cause within the first year of his employment, which would have amounted to $125,000. He would also have been provided with a continuation of his medical benefits for a period of six months from the date of his termination. Such agreement has expired.

IRC Section 162(m) compliance

As a result of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, publicly-traded companies such as us are not allowed a federal income tax deduction for compensation, paid to the Chief Executive Officer and the three other highest paid executive officers, to the extent that such compensation exceeds $1 million per officer in any one year and does not otherwise qualify as performance-based compensation. Currently, our stock option compensation packages are structured so that compensation deemed paid to an executive officer in connection with the exercise of a stock option should qualify as performance-based compensation that is not subject to the $1 million limitation. However, other awards, like RSU’s, made under our stock incentive plans may or may not so qualify. In establishing the cash and equity incentive compensation programs for the executive officers, it is the Committee’s view that the potential deductibility of the compensation payable under those programs should be only one of a number of relevant factors taken into consideration, and not the sole governing factor. For that reason the Committee may deem it appropriate to continue to provide one or more executive officers with the opportunity to earn incentive compensation, including cash bonus programs tied to our financial performance and RSU awards, which may be in excess of the amount deductible by reason of Section 162(m) or other provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. It is the Committee’s belief that cash and equity incentive compensation must be maintained at the requisite level to attract and retain the executive officers essential to our financial success, even if part of that compensation may not be deductible by reason of the Section 162(m) limitation. For Fiscal 2011, none of our executive officer’s compensation reached the $1 million limitation. The Committee will continue to evaluate such $1 million limitation in Fiscal 2012.

Report of the Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed the Compensation, Discussion and Analysis with management, and based on this review and these discussions, the Compensation Committee recommended to the board that the Compensation, Discussion and Analysis be included in Senesco’s Annual Report on Form 10-K/A.

Cash Compensation

Commencing in Fiscal 2009, after review and consultation with the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant, we implemented a new cash compensation plan for our directors pursuant to which we pay each non-employee director cash compensation as consideration for their service on our board for each fiscal year as follows:

Annual (Base) Retainer	$	10,000
Per Scheduled Board Meeting Fee	$	1,500	(1)
Per Committee Meeting Fee	$	750	(2)
Additional Annual Retainer:
Chairman of the Board	$	5,000
Audit Committee Chair	$	3,500
Compensation Committee Chair	$	3,500
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Chair	$	1,500
Non-Chair Committee Member Additional Retainer (All Committees)	$	1,000
Maximum Per Diem For All Meetings	$	2,000

(1)

$750 for telephonic meetings (less than 30 minutes: $375).

(2)

$375 for telephonic meetings.

Such cash compensation is paid in quarterly increments. A director may elect, provided such election is made at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year, to receive, in lieu of such cash payments, either (i) restricted stock units, or RSU’s, covering that number of shares having a fair market value on the grant date equal to such cash award or (ii) options in an amount equal to twice the number of RSU’s that would have been received. Such election to receive (y) cash or (z) equity in the form of RSU’s or options applies for the entire year. The directors have all elected to receive options in lieu of cash for Fiscal 2011 and Fiscal 2012, except for Messrs. Braca and Rector, who have elected to receive their retainer fees in cash and their meeting fees in options, and Mr. Isabelle, who has elected to receive his fees in cash. The RSU’s or options for each quarter are granted effective two (2) days following the filing of our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q for that quarter and are fully vested as of the grant date. The exercise price of the options will be the closing price on the grant date.

We provide reimbursement to directors for reasonable and necessary expenses incurred in connection with attendance at meetings of the board of directors and other Senesco business.

The options have an exercise price of $0.26 per share, $0.29 per share and $0.27 per share, respectively, the fair market value of the common stock on the grant dates (except for the grants to Christopher Forbes, which have exercise prices of $0.29 per share, $0.32 per share and $0.30 per share, respectively (110% of the fair market value of the common stock on the grant date).

Service Agreements

Christopher Forbes, our director, is Vice Chairman of Forbes Media LLC, Vice Chairman of Forbes Family Holdings, Inc. and Vice President of Forbes Management Co., Inc. Mr. Forbes was also Vice Chairman of Forbes Inc. Forbes, Inc. and Forbes Management Company, Inc. have provided and will continue to provide us with introductions to strategic alliance partners and, from time to time, use of its office space. In recognition of these services, during Fiscal 2010, we granted to Forbes, Inc. a warrant to purchase shares of our common stock, and during Fiscal 2011, we granted to Forbes Management Company, Inc. an option to purchase shares of our common stock. The awards to the Forbes entities are described in the table below.

However, effective January 1, 2003, 2006, 2007 and 2011, the agreement was amended to increase the monthly payments from $3,000 to $5,000, from $5,000 to $5,200, from $5,200 to $5,417, and from $5,417 to $5,625, respectively.

Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions

Our Audit Committee Charter requires that our Audit Committee review and approve or ratify transactions involving us and any executive officer, director, director nominee, 5% stockholder and certain of their immediate family members, also referred to herein as a related person. The policy and procedures cover any transaction involving a related person, also referred to herein as a related person transaction, in which the related person has a material interest and which does not fall under an explicitly stated exception set forth in the applicable disclosure rules of the SEC.

A related person transaction will be considered approved or ratified if it is authorized by the Audit Committee after full disclosure of the related person’s interest in the transaction. In considering related person transactions, the Audit Committee will consider any information considered material to investors and the following factors:

the related person’s interest in the transaction;

the approximate dollar value of the transaction;

whether the transaction was undertaken in the ordinary course of our business;

whether the terms of the transaction are no less favorable to us than terms that we could have reached with an unrelated third party; and

the purpose and potential benefit to us of the transaction.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

In accordance with its charter, the Audit Committee is required to approve all audit and non-audit services provided by the independent auditors and shall not engage the independent auditors to perform the specific non-audit services prescribed by law or regulation.

The Audit Committee has adopted policies and procedures relating to the pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services that are to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. This policy generally provides that we will not engage our independent registered public accounting firm to render audit or non-audit services unless the service is specifically approved in advance by the Audit Committee or the engagement is entered into pursuant to one of the pre-approval procedures described below.

From time to time, the Audit Committee may pre-approve specified types of services that are expected to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm during the next 12 months. Any such pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or type of services to be provided and is also generally subject to a maximum dollar amount.

The Audit Committee has also delegated to the chairman of the Audit Committee the authority to approve any audit or non-audit services to be provided to us by our independent registered public accounting firm. Any approval of services by a member of the Audit Committee pursuant to this delegated authority is reported on at the next meeting of the Audit Committee.
