On October 14, 2024, Boundless Bio, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that Jami Rubin, the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, stepped down from her role with the Company. Ms. Rubin’s employment with the Company terminated effective October 11, 2024 (the “Effective Date”).

 

Pursuant to the Company’s Severance and Change in Control Severance Plan (the “Plan”), and subject to the effectiveness of a waiver and release of claims given by Ms. Rubin in favor of the Company in a form reasonably satisfactory to the Company and her compliance with certain restrictive covenants as set forth in the Plan, Ms. Rubin will be entitled to receive the severance benefits associated with a termination of employment other than for Cause (as defined in the Plan) for a “Tier 2 Covered Employee” under the Plan. A description of the terms and conditions of the Plan is in the prospectus dated March 27, 2024 that forms a part of the Company’s registration statement on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No. 333-27769), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on March 27, 2024. The Plan was filed as Exhibit 10.6 to the Company’s quarterly report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended March 31, 2024, filed with the SEC on May 13, 2024 (the “Q1 10-Q”).

 

As of the Effective Date, David Hinkle, the Company’s Senior Vice President, Finance & Controller, was appointed to also serve as the Company’s Treasurer, principal financial officer, and principal accounting officer.

Mr. Hinkle, age 63, joined the Company in June 2021 as Vice President, Finance & Controller and has served in the role of Senior Vice President, Finance & Controller since June 2023. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Hinkle served as Vice President, Finance & Controller at Crinetics Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a publicly-traded clinical stage pharmaceutical company, from July 2018 to May 2021. Prior to that, Mr. Hinkle served in similar capacities at Ignyta, Inc. (acquired by Roche/Genentech), Receptos Inc. (acquired by Celgene Corporation), Somaxon Pharmaceuticals, and Digirad. Mr. Hinkle began his career at Deloitte. Mr. Hinkle earned a Bachelor of Science degree from California State University, Northridge and is a Certified Public Accountant (inactive status) in the State of California.

There was no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Hinkle and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Hinkle was appointed to serve as the Company’s Treasurer, principal financial officer and/or principal accounting officer. There are no family relationships between Mr. Hinkle and any director or executive officer of the Company, and there are no related person transactions involving Mr. Hinkle that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

The Company and Mr. Hinkle entered into an indemnification agreement, effective as of the Effective Date, in substantially the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for directors and executive officers, a copy of which was filed as Exhibit 10.13 to the Q1 10-Q.
