On
October 18, 2019, the board of directors (the “Board”) of CohBar, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed
Misha Petkevich as a member of the Board. Mr. Petkevich was also subsequently appointed to the Audit Committee of the
Board.
Mr. Petkevich, 70, has served as the Chief
Investment Officer of V2M Capital LLC, an investment fund, since 2015, after founding V2M Capital LLC’s predecessor firm,
BladeRock Capital, LLC, in 2005. Prior to founding BladeRock Capital, Mr. Petkevich founded The Petkevich Group, a biotechnology
advisory firm, where he was Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Petkevich has also served as Managing Director, as well as
Head of Healthcare and Investment Banking at Robertson Stephens & Co. Mr. Petkevich began his career at Hambrecht & Quist,
an investment bank, where he served as a Principal, Head of Healthcare Banking and as a biotechnology analyst. Mr. Petkevich also
serves on the board of directors of a private biopharmaceutical company. Mr. Petkevich received his bachelor’s degree
from Harvard University and his DPhil from the University of Oxford. The Board believes that Mr. Petkevich’s financial
and business expertise in the biopharmaceutical industry qualify him to serve as a member of our Board.
In
connection with his appointment as a member of the Board, Mr. Petkevich was granted stock options to purchase 200,000 shares
of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $1.43 per share (the “Option”). The Option will vest
and become exercisable in equal monthly installments over a period of four years based on Mr. Petkevich’s continued
service to the Company during the vesting period. Mr. Petkevich will also receive annual cash compensation of $60,000 in
consideration of his service as a director.
