FOR THE 2019 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

PROXY AND VOTING

IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING THE AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS:

The notice of annual meeting of stockholders, the proxy statement and the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2019 are available electronically to the Company’s stockholders of record as of the close of business on January 13, 2020 at https://www.cstproxy.com/ibioinc/2018.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND VOTING

Q.

Why am I receiving this proxy statement?

​

A.

We have made this proxy statement available to you because the Board of Directors of iBio is soliciting your proxy to vote at the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held on February 10, 2020 (the “Annual Meeting”). You are invited to attend the Annual Meeting to vote on the proposals described in this proxy statement. However, you do not need to attend the Annual Meeting to vote your shares. Instead, you may vote by proxy by completing and returning the enclosed proxy card.

​

Q.

Who can vote at the Annual Meeting?

​

A.

Only stockholders of record at the close of business on January 13, 2020, the record date for the Annual Meeting (the “Record Date”), will be entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, there were [59,327,455] shares of common stock, $0.001 par value per share, outstanding and entitled to vote at the annual meeting. On the Record Date there was one share of the Company’s iBio CMO Preferred Tracking Stock, par value, $0.001 per share (“Preferred Tracking Stock”) outstanding, [12] shares of the Company’s Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series A Convertible Preferred Stock”), outstanding, [5,785] shares of the Company’s Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Series B Convertible Preferred Stock”) outstanding and [20] shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock outstanding. The Preferred Tracking Stock, Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock are not entitled to vote on the proposals described in this proxy statement.

​

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name — If on the Record Date your shares of common stock were registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company, then you are a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or vote by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by returning the enclosed proxy card to ensure your vote is counted.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker or Bank — If on the Record Date your shares of common stock were held in an account at a brokerage firm, bank, dealer, or other similar organization, then you are the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by that organization. The organization holding your account is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other agent regarding how to vote the shares in your account. You are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. However, since you are not the stockholder of record, you may not vote your shares in person at the Annual Meeting unless you request and obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other agent.

Q.

What is a proxy card?

​

A.

The proxy card enables you to appoint Robert B. Kay, our executive chairman, and Robert Erwin, our president, or either of them, as your representatives at the Annual Meeting. By completing and returning the proxy card, you are authorizing Messrs. Kay and Erwin to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting as you have instructed on the proxy card. If you do not specify on the proxy card how your shares should be voted, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board of Directors. By returning the proxy card to us, you can vote your shares whether or not you attend the Annual Meeting.

​

Q.

How many votes do I have?

​

A.

On each matter to be voted upon, you have one vote for each share of common stock you own as of the Record Date.

​

Q.

What is the quorum requirement?

​

A.

A quorum will be present if stockholders holding a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock on the Record Date are present at the Annual Meeting in person or represented by proxy. On the Record Date, there were [59,327,455] shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

​

Your shares will be counted towards the quorum only if you submit a valid proxy vote or vote at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted towards the quorum requirement. If there is no quorum, the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting may adjourn the meeting to another date.

Q.

What am I voting on?

​

A.

There are six matters scheduled for a vote:

​

1.

To elect two directors each to serve as Class II directors for a three-year term expiring at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders or until successors have been duly elected and qualified;

​

2.

To ratify the selection of CohnReznick LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the current fiscal year ending June 30, 2020;

​

3.

To approve an advisory vote on executive compensation;

​

4.

To hold an advisory vote on the frequency of future executive compensation advisory votes;

​

5.

To approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to effect a reverse stock split of our Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a ratio not less than one-for-five (1:5) and not greater than one-for-twenty-five (1:25), with the exact ratio to be publicly announced and set within that range at the discretion of our Board of Directors before filing of the amendment effecting the proposed reverse stock split without further approval or authorization of our stockholders; and

​

6.

To approve an amendment to our 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan to increase the number of shares of our common stock authorized for issuance thereunder from 3.5 million shares to 6.5 million shares and to incorporate changes to include restricted stock units and performance-based awards as grant types issuable under the 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

​

As of the date of this proxy statement, we are not aware of any business expected to come before or be transacted at the Annual Meeting other than the matters described above.

5

Q.

How do I vote?

​

A.

For Proposal 1, you may either vote “FOR” all the nominees for director or you may abstain from voting for any nominee you specify. For Proposals 2, 3, and 5 you may vote “FOR” or “AGAINST” or you may abstain from voting. For Proposal 4, you may vote for a frequency of one year, two years or three years or you may abstain from voting. The procedures for voting are fairly simple:

​

Stockholder of Record: Shares Registered in Your Name — If you are a stockholder of record, you may vote in person at the Annual Meeting or you can vote by returning the enclosed proxy card. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote in person even if you have already voted by proxy.

Beneficial Owner: Shares Registered in the Name of a Broker, Bank or other Agent — If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of your broker, bank, or other agent, you should have received this proxy statement from that organization rather than from iBio. Simply follow the voting instructions provided by that organization. To vote in person at the Annual Meeting, you must obtain a valid proxy from your broker, bank or other agent. Follow the instructions from your broker, bank or other agent included with these proxy materials, or contact your broker, bank or other agent to request a proxy form.

Q.

What if I return a proxy card but do not make specific choices?

​

A.

If you properly submit your proxy and do not revoke it, the proxy holders will vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If your properly completed proxy gives no instructions, and you are a shareholder of record, then the persons named as proxy holders will vote your shares in the manner recommended by our Board of Directors on all matters presented in this Proxy Statement and as the proxy holders may determine in their discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote at the Annual Meeting. If you are a beneficial owner of shares registered in the name of a broker, bank or other agent and do not provide the organization that holds your shares with specific voting instructions then, under applicable rules, the organization that holds your shares may generally vote on “routine” matters but cannot vote on “non-routine” matters. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matters that organization will inform the inspector of election that it does not have the authority to vote on this matter with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.”

​

Q.

How may I change or revoke my vote after submitting my proxy?

​

A.

You may change or revoke your proxy at any time before the Annual Meeting. You may revoke your proxy in any one of three ways:

​

•

You may submit another properly completed proxy with a later date. Only the most recently dated proxy will be counted.

​

•

You may send written notice in time for receipt by us prior to the Annual Meeting that you are revoking your proxy. Such notice should be sent us c/o of our

​

Secretary, iBio, Inc.,
600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601,
New York, NY 10022.

•

You may attend the Annual Meeting, request that your proxy be revoked and vote in person as instructed above. Simply attending the meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy. You must specifically request such revocation.

​

Q.

What does it mean if I receive more than one notice of Annual Meeting?

​

A.

If you receive more than one notice of Annual Meeting, your shares are registered in more than one name or are registered in different accounts. You should submit a proxy for each name and account to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

​

6

Q.

What are broker non-votes?

​

A.

Broker non-votes occur when a beneficial owner of shares held in “street name” does not give instructions as to how to vote to the broker or nominee holding the shares. If the beneficial owner does not provide voting instructions, the broker or nominee can vote the shares with respect to matters that are “discretionary” items but cannot vote the shares with respect to “nondiscretionary” items (resulting in a “broker non-vote”).

​

If your shares are held by your broker as your nominee (that is, in “street name”), you will need to obtain a proxy form from the institution that holds your shares and follow the instructions included on that form regarding how to instruct your broker to vote your shares. If you do not give instructions to your broker, your broker can vote your shares with respect to “discretionary” items, but not with respect to “non-discretionary” items. On non-discretionary items for which you do not give your broker instructions, the shares will be treated as broker non-votes (such proposals being commonly referred to as “non-routine” matters). The ratification of the selection of CohnReznick LLP is a “discretionary” item, and therefore no broker non-votes are expected in connection with this proposal. All the other matters being acted upon and put to a vote at the Annual Meeting are “non-discretionary” items, and therefore broker non-votes may exist in connection with these other proposals. If you do not give your broker or nominee specific instructions with respect to each of the proposals other than the ratification of the selection of CohnReznick LLP, your shares will not be voted on those matters and will not be counted as a vote cast in determining the number of votes necessary for approval of those matters. Therefore, we strongly encourage you to submit your voting instructions promptly and to exercise your right to vote as a stockholder.

Q.

How many votes are needed to approve each proposal?

​

A.

If a quorum is present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting, the vote required to approve each of these proposals is as follows:

​

For the approval of Proposal 1 (the election of directors), the two nominees receiving the most “FOR” votes from the holders of shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on the election of directors will be elected, regardless of whether that number represents a majority of the votes cast. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the election of directors.

With respect to Proposals 2,3 and 6 (ratifying the selection of CohnReznick LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020, approving the Say-On-Pay Proposal and approving an amendment to our 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan) each proposal must receive “FOR” votes from the holders of a majority of shares present or represented at the Annual Meeting and voting on the matter, either in person or by proxy. Broker non-votes will have no effect on determining whether the affirmative votes for Proposals 2,3 and 6 constitute a majority of the shares present or represented by proxy and voting at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions shall have the same effect as a negative vote on these proposals.

If you vote to abstain on Proposal 4 (advisory vote on frequency of future “say on pay” advisory votes), your shares will not be voted in favor or against this proposal and will also not be counted as votes cast or shares voting on the proposal. As a result, voting to abstain will have no effect on Proposal 4. If none of the three frequency options receives the majority of the votes cast, we will consider the frequency option (one year, two years or three years) that receives the highest number of votes cast to be the frequency that has been recommended by stockholders. However, as described in more detail in Proposal 4, because this proposal is non-binding, our board of directors may decide that it is in the best interests of our stockholders and iBio to hold future executive compensation votes more or less frequently.

The approval of Proposal 5 (the reverse stock split proposal) must receive “FOR” votes from a majority of the outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote on such matter, in person or by proxy. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote against Proposal 5, because the proposal requires an affirmative vote by a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote.

7

Q.

Am I entitled to dissenter’s rights?

​

A.

No. Delaware General Corporation Law does not provide for dissenter’s rights in connection with the proposals being voted on at the Annual Meeting.

​

Q.

Where may I find the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

​

A.

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K within four business days following the Annual Meeting.

​

Q.

Who is paying for this proxy solicitation?

​

A.

Our Board of Directors is soliciting the proxy accompanying this proxy statement. The Company will bear the cost of soliciting proxies. Such cost will include charges by brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for forwarding proxies and proxy materials to the beneficial owners of our common stock. Solicitation may also be made personally by telephone or by email by the Company’s directors, officers and regular employees without additional compensation.

​

PROPOSAL 1 — ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Company’s Board of Directors is currently composed of seven (7) directors divided into three classes of directors, Class I, II and III, with each class serving staggered 3-year terms. The current term of office for each Class II director expires at the Annual Meeting. The class and current term of each director is as follows:

At our annual meeting, our stockholders will consider and vote upon the re-election of Glenn Chang and Philip K Russell, M.D. to serve as Class II directors. If re-elected, these nominees will serve for a three-year term that will expire at the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders. Our Board of Directors believes that all of our current directors, including the two nominees for election, possess personal and professional integrity, good judgment, a high level of ability and business acumen. Our Board of Directors also believes that Mr. Chang and Dr. Russell have performed exceptionally well in their respective time served as directors.

Each nominee has agreed to serve if elected and we have no reason to believe that any nominee will be unable to serve. If any nominee becomes unavailable for election as a result of an unexpected occurrence, proxies will be voted for the election of a substitute nominee proposed by our Board of Directors or for election of only the remaining nominees.

Unless authority to do so is withheld, shares represented by executed proxies will be voted for the election of Mr. Chang and Dr. Russell. Proxies cannot be voted for a greater number of persons than the number of nominees standing for election. Since two directors are to be elected at the annual meeting, the two nominees for director who receive the highest number of affirmative votes for election will be elected as Class II directors.

Information with respect to the number of shares of common stock beneficially owned by each nominee for election as a Class II director and each of our other directors appears under the heading “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management”.

9

The name, age, years of service on our Board of Directors, principal occupation and business experience and certain other information for each Class II director nominee is set forth below.

The Board of Directors believes that approval of the election of each nominee director named above is in the best interests of our stockholders and therefore recommends a vote “FOR” each nominee.

10

OTHER DIRECTORS OF THE COMPANY SERVING AS CLASS I AND CLASS III DIRECTORS

The name, age, years of service on our Board of Directors, principal occupation and business experience and certain other information for each our Class I and Class III directors who will continue to serve on the Board of Directors and who are not standing for election at this annual meeting is set forth below:

INFORMATION REGARDING THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Director Compensation

Compensation for our non-employee directors had historically consisted of a grant of stock options vesting over a three-year period and additional cash compensation. In 2019, we granted stock options vesting over a three-year period. We do not have a fixed policy with respect to this compensation, but the compensation is generally equal for each non-employee director except in cases where a director assumes additional responsibilities above and beyond standard board service. Directors who are also our employees receive no additional compensation for their services as directors.

Effective as of April 1, 2019, Arthur Y. Elliott, Ph.D. resigned from his position as a member of the Board of Directors. Dr. Elliott did not advise the Company of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices. Also, effective as of April 1, 2019, Tom Isett was appointed as a member of the Board to serve as a Class I director. His term as a Class I director will expire at the Corporation’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders.

Effective as of May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Statement of Work (the “May 1, 2019 SOW”) pursuant to a Consulting Agreement, dated as of February 22, 2019, between the Company and i.e.Advising, LLC (the “Consultant”). Thomas Isett, a director of the Company, is the Managing Director and sole owner of i.e. Advising, LLC. The Consultant has been retained by the Company as a strategy and management consultant, with services to be provided pursuant to statements of work that may be entered into between the Company and Consultant from time to time. The May 1, 2019 SOW has a term from May 1, 2019 to August 31, 2019. The May 1, 2019 SOW was amended to extend the term to October 31, 2019. The engagement under the May 1, 2019 SOW is being conducted on a retainer basis for Thomas Isett, as the primary engagement resource, at a rate of  $40,000 per month, and on a time and materials basis for all other engagement resources provided by Consultant, which are billable at the rate of  $85 to $450 per hour. The Consultant and the Company entered into an additional Statement of Work on December 1, 2019, which provides that the Consultant is entitled to a bonus of 3% to 4.5% of the transaction value if the Company or any of its assets are sold during the term of the Statement of Work, which ends on December 31, 2020 (together with the May 1, 2019 SOW the “SOWs”).

Director Compensation Table

The following table sets forth summary information concerning the total compensation paid to our non-employee directors for services to the Company during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019:

​

​

(5)

Effective as of April 1, 2019, Arthur Y. Elliott, Ph.D. resigned from his position as a member of the Board of Directors.

​

Director Independence

Our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Chang, Flug, and McKey, Dr. Russell and General Hill are each “independent directors” as such term is defined in Section 803 of the NYSE American Company Guide. Based on Mr. Isett’s services provided to the Company pursuant to the Consulting Agreement and related SOWs between the Company and Consultant, the board of directors has not determined that Mr. Isett is an “independent director”.

Board Committees

Our board of directors has the authority to appoint committees to perform certain management and administrative functions. Our board of directors has constituted audit, compensation and nominating committees.

Nominating Committee and Nomination Process

The Nominating Committee was formed to address general governance and policy oversight; succession planning; to identify qualified individuals to become prospective board members and make recommendations regarding nominations for our board of directors; to advise the board with respect to appropriate composition of board committees; to advise the board about and develop and recommend to the board appropriate corporate governance documents and assist the board in implementing guidelines; to oversee the annual evaluation of the board and our chief executive officer, and to perform such other functions as the board may assign to the committee from time to time. The Nominating Committee has a charter which is available on our website at www.ibioinc.com. The Nominating Committee currently consists of two independent directors: Glenn Chang (Nominating Committee Chairman) and General James T. Hill.

Our directors take a critical role in guiding our strategic direction and oversee the management of our company. Board candidates are considered based upon various criteria, such as their broad-based business and professional skills and experiences, a global business and social perspective, concern for the long-term interests of our stockholders and personal integrity and judgment. In addition, directors must have time available to devote to board activities and to enhance their knowledge of the life sciences industry. Accordingly, we seek to attract and retain highly qualified directors who have sufficient time to attend to their substantial duties and responsibilities.

Our board of directors believes given the diverse skills and experience required to grow our company that the input of all members of the Nominating Committee is important for considering the qualifications of individuals to serve as directors but does not have a diversity policy. Further, the Nominating Committee believes that the minimum qualifications for serving as our director are that a nominee demonstrate, by significant accomplishment in his or her field, an ability to make a meaningful contribution to the board’s oversight of our business and affairs and have an impeccable record and reputation for honest and ethical conduct in both his or her professional and personal activities. Whenever a new seat or a vacated seat on the board is being filled, candidates that appear to best fit the needs of the board and our company are identified and unless such individuals are well known to the board, they are interviewed and further evaluated by the Nominating Committee. Candidates selected by the Nominating Committee are then recommended to the full board for their nomination to stockholders. The Nominating Committee recommends a slate of directors for election at the annual meeting. In accordance with NYSE American rules, the slate of nominees is approved by a majority of the independent directors.

14

In carrying out its responsibilities, our board will consider candidates suggested by stockholders. If a stockholder wishes to formally place a candidate’s name in nomination, however, he or she must do so in accordance with the provisions of our First Amended and Restated Bylaws. Suggestions for candidates to be evaluated by the Nominating Committee must be sent to Secretary, iBio, Inc., 600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601, New York, NY 10022.

Audit Committee

The Audit Committee of the board of directors makes recommendations regarding the retention of the independent registered public accounting firm, reviews the scope of the annual audit undertaken by our independent registered public accounting firm and the progress and results of their work, reviews our financial statements, and oversees the internal controls over financial reporting and corporate programs to ensure compliance with applicable laws and regulations. The Audit Committee reviews all services performed for us by the independent registered public accounting firm and determines whether they are compatible with maintaining the registered public accounting firm’s independence. The Audit Committee has a charter, which is reviewed annually and as may be required due to changes in industry accounting practices or the promulgation of new rules or guidance documents. The Audit Committee charter is available on our website at www.ibioinc.com. The Audit Committee consists of two independent directors as determined by NYSE American listing standards: Glenn Chang (Audit Committee Chairman) and Seymour Flug. Mr. Chang and Mr. Flug are each qualified as an Audit Committee Financial Expert as defined in Regulation S-K Item 407(d)(5)(ii).

Compensation Committee

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors reviews and approves executive compensation policies and practices, reviews salaries and bonuses for our senior executive officers, administers our equity incentive plan and other benefit plans, and considers other matters as may, from time to time, be referred to them by our board of directors. The Compensation Committee has a charter which is available on our website at www.ibioinc.com. The members of the Compensation Committee are General James T. Hill (Compensation Committee Chairman) and Philip K. Russell, M.D.

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

Our chief executive officer also serves as the executive chairman of our board of directors. We do not have a lead independent director. Our executive chairman, when present, presides over all meetings of our board. We believe this leadership structure is appropriate for our Company at this time because (1) of our size, (2) of the size of our board, (3) our chief executive officer is responsible for our day-to-day operation and implementing our strategy, and (4) discussion of developments in our business and financial condition and results of operations are important parts of the discussion at meetings of our board of directors and it makes sense for our chief executive officer to chair those discussions.

Our board of directors oversees our risk management. This oversight is administered primarily through the following:

•

Our board’s review and approval of our business strategy, including the projected opportunities and challenges facing our business;

​

•

At least quarterly review of our business developments and financial results;

​

•

Our Audit Committee’s oversight of our internal controls over financial reporting and its discussions with management and the independent registered public accountants regarding the quality and adequacy of our internal controls and financial reporting; and

​

•

Our board’s review and recommendations regarding our executive officer compensation and its relationship to our business objectives and goals.

​

15

two occasions, and no meetings in person or by telephone were held by the Nominating Committee. The Compensation Committee acted by unanimous written consent on one occasion, and no meetings in person or by telephone were held by the Compensation Committee. Between meetings, members of the board of the directors are provided with information regarding our operations and are consulted on an informal basis with respect to pending business.

On August 12, 2008, the Company adopted the iBioPharma 2008 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan for employees, officers, directors and external service providers. Stock options granted under the 2008 Plan could be either incentive stock options (as defined by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) or non-qualified stock options at the discretion of the Board of Directors. Vesting of service awards occurred ratably on the anniversary of the grant date over the service period, generally three or five years, as determined at the time of grant. Vesting of performance awards occurred when the performance criteria had been satisfied. The Company used historical data to estimate forfeiture rates. The 2008 Plan had a term of ten (10) years and, as a result, the 2008 Plan expired by its terms on August 12, 2018.

iBio, Inc. 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”)

On November 9, 2018, the Board adopted, subject to stockholder approval, the 2018 Plan, and on December 18, 2018, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2018 Plan. The total number of shares of common stock reserved under the 2018 Plan is 3.5 million. Stock options granted under the 2018 Plan may be either incentive stock options (as defined by Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended), non-qualified stock options, or restricted stock and determined at the discretion of the Board of Directors.

Vesting of service awards will be determined by the Board of Directors and stated in the award agreements. In general, vesting will occur ratably on the anniversary of the grant date over the service period, generally three or five years, as determined at the time of grant. Vesting of performance awards will occur when the performance criteria has been satisfied. The Company uses historical data to estimate forfeiture rates. The 2018 Plan has a term of ten (10) years and expires by its terms on November 9, 2028.

In addition, on December 18, 2018, the Company’s stockholders also approved an amendment to the Company’s 2008 Plan to allow the Company to permit a one-time option exchange program under which the Company would offer eligible employees and non-employee directors the opportunity to exchange certain outstanding options on a four-for- three basis for new stock options exercisable at a lower price under the 2018 Plan (the “Option Exchange”).

On January 22, 2019, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO defining the terms and conditions of the Option Exchange, whereby the Company was offering eligible employees and non-employee directors (“Eligible Option Holders”) the opportunity to exchange for new options covering a lesser number of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Replacement Options”), at a ratio of four-for-three (the “Exchange Ratio”), any options issued by the Company prior to January 22, 2019 that were outstanding under its 2008 Plan that had an exercise price greater than the closing price per share of iBio’s common stock on the NYSE American on the grant date of the Replacement Options (“Eligible Exchange Options”), so that for each four shares of common stock

18

subject to an Eligible Exchange Option, the option holder would receive a Replacement Option to purchase three shares under the 2018 Plan. On February 20, 2019, the completion date of the Option Exchange (the “Replacement Option Grant Date”), the Company canceled the options accepted for exchange and granted 874,310 Replacement Options in exchange for 1,165,750 options issued under the 2008 Plan.

The Replacement Options:

•

have a per-share exercise price of  $0.93, which was equal to the closing price per share of the Company’s common stock on the Replacement Option Grant Date;

​

•

have a five-year term beginning on February 20, 2019 and vest one year later on February 20, 2020. Generally, the Underwater Options had been scheduled to vest over four years following the recipient’s employment start date or the date of grant. As of November 19, 2018, approximately 94% of the shares covered by the Underwater Options already were vested. All other terms and conditions of the new stock options will generally be consistent with the terms and conditions of iBio’s standard time-vesting stock option grants;

​

•

are of the same type of options as the surrendered options. Eligible Option Holders holding nonqualified stock options received Replacement Options in the form of nonqualified stock options and Eligible Option Holders holding incentive stock options received Replacement Options in the form of incentive stock options; and

​

•

have the terms and be subject to the conditions as provided for in the 2018 Plan and option award agreement.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Director Independence

Our board of directors has determined that Messrs. Chang, Flug, and McKey, Dr. Russell and General Hill are each “independent directors” as such term is defined in Section 803 of the NYSE American Company Guide. Based on Mr. Isett’s services provided to the Company pursuant to the Consulting Agreement and related SOWs between the Company and Consultant, the board of directors has not determined that Mr. Isett is an “independent director”.

Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions

The policy our board of directors is to review with management and our independent registered public accounting firm any related party transactions brought to the board’s attention which could reasonably be expected to have a material impact on our financial statements. The Company’s practice is for management to present to the board of directors each proposed related party transaction, including all relevant facts and circumstances relating thereto, and to update the board of directors as to any material changes to any approved related party transaction. In connection with this requirement, each of the transactions or relationships disclosed below were disclosed to and approved by our board of directors. In addition, transactions involving our directors and their affiliated entities were disclosed and reviewed by our board of directors in its assessment of our directors’ independence requirements.

Transactions with Eastern Capital Limited and its Affiliates

On January 13, 2016, we entered into a share purchase agreement with Eastern, which was amended as of February 25, 2016 (as amended, the “6.5M Purchase Agreement”). Pursuant to the 6.5M Purchase Agreement, Eastern agreed to purchase 650,000 shares of our common stock (the “Eastern Shares”), for a purchase price of  $6.22 per share (adjusted for the Company’s one-for-ten reverse stock split effective June 8, 2018), subject to the approval of our stockholders. Our stockholders approved the issuance of such shares at our 2015 Annual Meeting.

On the same day that we entered into the 6.5M Purchase Agreement, we also entered into a separate share purchase agreement pursuant to which Eastern agreed to purchase 350,000 shares of our common stock (the “3.5M Purchase Agreement”) for a purchase price of  $6.22 per share (adjusted for the Company’s one-for-ten reverse stock split effective June 8, 2018) (the “3.5M Purchase Agreement”) (together with the 6.5M Purchase Agreement, the “Eastern Purchase Agreements”). Stockholder approval was not required for the issuance of the 350,000 shares of our common stock pursuant to the 3.5M Purchase Agreement and the sale of those shares was completed on January 25, 2016.

Simultaneously with the issuance of shares under the 3.5M Purchase Agreement, Eastern exercised warrants, dated April 26, 2013, which Eastern acquired previously, to purchase 178,400 shares of common stock for a purchase price of  $5.30 per share.

Concurrently with the execution of the Eastern Purchase Agreements, we entered into a contract manufacturing joint venture with affiliates of Eastern to develop and manufacture plant-made pharmaceuticals through iBio’s recently formed subsidiary, iBio CDMO. Bryan Capital Investors LLC (“Bryan Capital Investors”), an affiliate of Eastern, contributed $15.0 million in cash to iBio CDMO, for a 30% interest in iBio CDMO. iBio granted to iBio CDMO a royalty bearing, non-exclusive license to use our proprietary technologies for research purposes and an exclusive U.S. license for manufacturing purposes, and retained a 70% equity interest in iBio CDMO. iBio retains all other rights in its intellectual property, including the rights to commercialize products based on our proprietary technology.

On February 23, 2017, we entered into an Exchange Agreement with Bryan Capital Investors, the Eastern Affiliate, pursuant to which we acquired substantially all of the interest in iBio CDMO held by the Eastern Affiliate and issued to Bryan Capital Investors one share of our newly created iBio CMO Preferred Tracking Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Preferred Tracking Stock”), in exchange for 29,990,000 units of limited liability company interests of iBio CDMO held by Bryan Capital Investors at an original issue price of $13 million. After giving effect to the transactions contemplated in the Exchange Agreement, we own 99.99%

22

of iBio CDMO and Bryan Capital Investors owns 0.01% of iBio CDMO. iBio has the right to appoint a majority of the members of the Board of Managers that manages the iBio CDMO joint venture. Specified material actions by the joint venture require the consent of iBio and Bryan Capital Investors.

As part of the transactions between Eastern and the Company, Eastern entered into a three-year standstill agreement (the “Standstill Agreement”) that restricts additional acquisitions of our common stock by Eastern and its controlled affiliates to limit its beneficial ownership of our outstanding shares of common stock to a maximum of 38% (the “Eastern Beneficial Ownership Limitation”), absent approval by a majority of our Board of Directors. With respect to the Standstill Agreement, our Board of Directors, acting unanimously, invited Bryan Capital Investors to enter into the Exchange Agreement described above and approved the issuance of one share of our Preferred Tracking Stock to Bryan Capital Investors.

On November 27, 2017, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to invite Eastern to purchase shares in the November 2017 public offering described above, provided that such purchase did not result in Eastern being the beneficial owner of more than 40% of the aggregate number of shares the Company’s outstanding common stock rather than the limit of 38% set forth in the Standstill Agreement.

On June 26, 2018, the Company closed its previously announced public offering (the “Offering”) of (i) 4,350,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at a public offering price of  $0.90 per Share, (ii) 6,300 shares (the “Series A Preferred Shares”) of the Company’s newly designated Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Series A Preferred Stock”) at the public offering price of  $1,000 per Series A Preferred Share, and (iii) 5,785 shares (the “Series B Preferred Shares”) of the Company’s newly designated Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) at the public offering price of  $1,000 per Series B Preferred Share.

In connection with the Offering, on June 26, 2018, the Company entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the 6.5M Purchase Agreement, dated January 13, 2016, with Eastern. The Amendment increases the Eastern Beneficial Ownership Limitation to 48% and extends the restrictions under the Standstill Provision until June 26, 2020. In accordance with the terms of the Standstill Provision, as amended, the Company’s Board of Directors duly authorized the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to offer Eastern to purchase shares in the Offering, provided that, when taken together with all other equity securities of the Company beneficially owned by Eastern and its controlled affiliates following consummation of the Offering, Eastern and its controlled affiliates would not beneficially own more than 48% of the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding as of the closing of the Offering, including all shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of all outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock and Series B Preferred Stock, and provided, further, that Eastern agreed to extend the standstill restrictions for two (2) additional years beginning with the date of Eastern’s or its controlled affiliate’s purchase of securities in the Offering.

As of the date of the filing of this report, Eastern beneficially owned approximately 48% of our outstanding shares of common stock.

Eastern does not have a right to appoint a director designee or any other special rights with respect to our management and affairs aside from its ability to vote the shares of common stock that it owns as it determines. Eastern has not been granted any board, management or special voting rights in connection with the transactions contemplated in the Purchase Agreements.

Capital Lease with Largest Stockholder

In connection with the joint venture, an affiliate of Eastern (the “Sublandord”) granted iBio CDMO a 34-year capital lease of a 139,000-square foot Class A life sciences building in Bryan, Texas located on land owned by the Texas A&M system, designed and equipped for plant-made manufacture of biopharmaceuticals. iBio CDMO began operations at the facility on December 22, 2015 pursuant to agreements between iBio CDMO and the Sublandlord granting iBio CDMO temporary rights to access the facility. These temporary agreements were superseded by a capital lease agreement entitled the Sublease Agreement, dated January 13, 2016, between iBio CDMO and the Sublandlord (the “Sublease”). The 34-year term of the Sublease may be extended by iBio CDMO for a ten-year period, so long as iBio CDMO is not in default under the Sublease.

23

Under the Sublease, iBio CDMO is required to pay base rent at an annual rate of  $2,100,000, paid in equal quarterly installments on the first day of each February, May, August and November. The base rent is subject to increase annually in accordance with increases in the Consumer Price Index. The base rent under the Sublandlord’s ground lease for the property is subject to adjustment, based on an appraisal of the property, in 2030 and upon any extension of the ground lease. The base rent under the Sublease will be increased by any increase in the base rent under the ground lease as a result of such adjustments. In addition to the base rent, iBio CDMO is required to pay, for each calendar year during the term, a portion of the total gross sales for products manufactured or processed at the facility, equal to 7% of the first $5,000,000 of gross sales, 6% of gross sales between $5,000,001 and $25,000,000, 5% of gross sales between $25,000,001 and $50,000,000, 4% of gross sales between $50,000,001 and $100,000,000, and 3% of gross sales between $100,000,001 and $500,000,000. However, if for any calendar year period from January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2019, iBio CDMO’s applicable gross sales are less than $5,000,000, or for any calendar year period from and after January 1, 2020, its applicable gross sales are less than $10,000,000, then iBio CDMO is required to pay the amount that would have been payable if it had achieved such minimum gross sales and shall pay no less than the applicable percentage for the minimum gross sales for each subsequent calendar year. iBio CDMO is responsible for all costs and expenses in connection with the ownership, management, operation, replacement, maintenance and repair of the property under the Sublease. General and administrative expenses related to the Sublease were approximately $1,051,000 and $852,000 for 2019 and 2018, respectively. Interest expense incurred under the capital lease obligation amounted to $1,900,000 and $1,915,000 for 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Director Consulting Agreement

Effective as of May 1, 2019, the Company entered into a Statement of Work (the “May 1 2019 SOW”) pursuant to a Consulting Agreement, dated as of February 20, 2019, between the Company and i.e.Advising, LLC (the “Consultant”). Mr. Isett is the Managing Director and sole owner of the Consultant. The Consultant has been retained by the Company as a strategy and management consultant, with services to be provided pursuant to statements of work that may be entered into between the Company and Consultant from time to time. The May 1, 2019 SOW has a term from May 1, 2019 to August 31, 2019. The May 1 2019 SOW was amended to extend the term to October 31, 2019. The engagement under the May 1, 2019 SOW is being conducted on a retainer basis for Mr. Isett, as the primary engagement resource, at a rate of  $40,000 per month, and on a time and materials basis for all other engagement resources provided by Consultant, which are billable at the rate of  $85.00 to $450 per hour. Consulting expenses totaled $168,348 in 2019. The Consultant and the Company entered into an additional Statement of Work on December 1, 2019, which provides that the Consultant is entitled to a bonus of 3% to 4.5% of the transaction value if the Company or any of its assets are sold during the term of the Statement of Work, which ends on December 31, 2020 (together with the May 1 2019 SOW, the “SOWs”).

On April 1, 2019, the Company appointed Mr. Isett to its Board of Directors.

Research and Development Services Vendor

In January 2012, the Company entered into an agreement with Novici in which iBio’s President is a minority stockholder. Novici performs technology development services for iBio, including laboratory feasibility analyses of gene expression, protein purification and preparation of research samples. The accounts payable balance includes amounts due to Novici of approximately $65,000 and $181,000 at June 30, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Research and development expenses related to Novici were approximately $954,000 and $877,000 for 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Limitation of Liability of Officers and Directors and Indemnification

Our certificate of incorporation, as amended, provides for indemnification of our officers and directors to the extent permitted by Delaware law, which generally permits indemnification for actions taken by officers or directors as our representatives if the officer or director acted in good faith and in a manner he or she reasonably believed to be in the best interest of the corporation.

As permitted under Delaware law, the by-laws contain a provision indemnifying directors against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with an action, suit or proceeding if they acted in good faith and

24

in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of our Company, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful.

Historical Relationship with Integrated BioPharma

We were a subsidiary of Integrated BioPharma from February 21, 2003 until August 18, 2008. On that date, Integrated BioPharma spun off iBio in a transaction that was intended to be a tax-free distribution to Integrated BioPharma and its U.S. stockholders. As part of that transaction, we entered into a number of agreements with Integrated BioPharma including an indemnification and insurance matters agreement and a tax responsibility allocation agreement. The agreements are described below.

Indemnification.   In general, under the indemnification and insurance matters agreement, we agreed to indemnify Integrated BioPharma, its affiliates and each of its and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives from all liabilities that arise from:

​

•

any of our liabilities reflected on our consolidated balance sheets included in the information statement relating to the spin-off;

​

•

our assets or businesses;

​

•

the management or conduct of our assets or businesses;

​

the liabilities allocated to or assumed by us under the separation and distribution agreement, the indemnification and insurance matters agreement or any of the other ancillary agreements;

various on-going litigation matters in which we are named defendant, including any new claims asserted in connection with those litigations, and any other past or future actions or claims based on similar claims, facts, circumstances or events, whether involving the same parties or similar parties, subject to specific exceptions;

​

•

claims that are based on any violations or alleged violations of U.S. or foreign securities laws in connection with transactions arising after the distribution relating to our securities and the disclosure of financial and other information and data by us or the disclosure by Integrated BioPharma as part of the distribution of our financial information or our confidential information; or

​

•

any actions or claims based on violations or alleged violations of securities or other laws by us or our directors, officers, employees, agents or representatives, or breaches or alleged breaches of fiduciary duty by our board of directors, any committee of our board or any of its members, or any of our officers or employees.

​

Integrated BioPharma agreed to indemnify us and our affiliates and our directors, officers, employees, agents and representatives from all liabilities that arise from:

•

any breach by Integrated BioPharma of the separation and distribution agreement or any ancillary agreement;

​

•

any liabilities allocated to or to be retained or assumed by Integrated BioPharma under the separation and distribution agreement, the indemnification and insurance matters agreement or any other ancillary agreement;

​

•

liabilities incurred by Integrated BioPharma in connection with the management or conduct of Integrated BioPharma’s businesses; and

​

•

various ongoing litigation matters to which we are not a party.

​

Integrated BioPharma is not obligated to indemnify us against any liability for which we are also obligated to indemnify Integrated BioPharma. Recoveries by Integrated BioPharma under insurance policies will reduce the amount of indemnification due from us to Integrated BioPharma only if the recoveries are under insurance policies Integrated BioPharma maintains for our benefit. Recoveries by us will in all cases reduce the amount of any indemnification due from Integrated BioPharma to us.

25

Under the indemnification and insurance matters agreement, a party has the right to control the defense of third-party claims for which it is obligated to provide indemnification, except that Integrated BioPharma has the right to control the defense of any third-party claim or series of related third-party claims in which it is named as a party whether or not it is obligated to provide indemnification in connection with the claim and any third-party claim for which Integrated BioPharma and we may both be obligated to provide indemnification. We may not assume the control of the defense of any claim unless we acknowledge that if the claim is adversely determined, we will indemnify Integrated BioPharma in respect of all liabilities relating to that claim. The indemnification and insurance matters agreement does not apply to taxes covered by the tax responsibility allocation agreement.

Offset.   Integrated BioPharma is permitted to reduce amounts it owes us under any of our agreements with Integrated BioPharma, by amounts we may owe to Integrated BioPharma under those agreements.

Assignment.   We may not assign or transfer any part of the indemnification and insurance agreement without Integrated BioPharma’s prior written consent. Nothing contained in the agreement restricts the transfer of the agreement by Integrated BioPharma.

Tax Responsibility Allocation Agreement

In order to allocate our responsibilities for taxes and certain other tax matters, we and Integrated BioPharma entered into a tax responsibility allocation agreement prior to the date of the distribution. Under the terms of the agreement, with respect to consolidated federal income taxes, and consolidated, combined and unitary state income taxes, Integrated BioPharma will be responsible for, and will indemnify and hold us harmless from, any liability for income taxes with respect to taxable periods or portions of periods ending prior to the date of distribution to the extent these amounts exceed the amounts we have paid to Integrated BioPharma prior to the distribution or in connection with the filing of relevant tax returns. Integrated BioPharma is also responsible for, and will indemnify and hold us harmless from, any liability for income taxes of Integrated BioPharma or any member of the Integrated BioPharma group (other than us) by reason of our being severally liable for those taxes under U.S. Treasury regulations or analogous state or local provisions. Under the terms of the agreement, with respect to consolidated federal income taxes, and consolidated, combined and unitary state income taxes, we are responsible for, and will indemnify and hold Integrated BioPharma harmless from, any liability for our income taxes for all taxable periods, whether before or after the distribution date. With respect to separate state income taxes, we are also responsible for, and will indemnify and hold Integrated BioPharma harmless from, any liability for income taxes with respect to taxable periods or portions of periods beginning on or after the distribution date. We are also responsible for, and will indemnify and hold Integrated BioPharma harmless from, any liability for our non-income taxes and our breach of any obligation or covenant under the terms of the tax responsibility allocation agreement, and in certain other circumstances as provided therein. In addition to the allocation of liability for our taxes, the terms of the agreement also provide for other tax matters, including tax refunds, returns and audits.

PROPOSAL 2 — RATIFICATION OF SELECTION OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has selected CohnReznick LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020 and has further directed that management submit the selection of the independent registered public accounting firm for ratification by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting. CohnReznick LLP was engaged as our principal accounting firm in October 2009. Representatives of CohnReznick LLP are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting. They will have an opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Neither our Bylaws nor other governing documents or law require stockholder ratification of the selection of CohnReznick LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm. However, the Audit Committee of the Board is submitting the selection of CohnReznick LLP to the stockholders for ratification as a matter of good corporate practice. If the stockholders fail to ratify the selection, the Audit Committee of the Board will reconsider whether or not to retain that firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee of the Board in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if they determine that such a change would be in our company’s and our stockholders’ best interests.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote on this proposal at the Annual Meeting will be required to ratify the selection of CohnReznick LLP.

The Board of Directors believes that the selection of CohnReznick LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2020 is in our best interest and the best interests of our stockholders and therefore recommends a vote “FOR” this proposal.

27

REPORT OF THE AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS*

The Audit Committee has prepared the following report on its activities with respect to our audited financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2019.

Our management is responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of our financial statements and is also responsible for maintaining appropriate accounting and financial reporting practices and policies. Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal controls and procedures designed to provide reasonable assurance that we are in compliance with accounting standards and applicable laws and regulations.

CohnReznick LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended June 30, 2019, is responsible for expressing opinions on the conformity of our audited financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 with our management. The Audit Committee has discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, as amended (AICPA, Professional Standards, Vol. 1. AU section 380), as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) in Rule 3200T. The Audit Committee has also received the written disclosures and the letter from our independent registered public accounting firm required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1 (Independence Discussions with Audit Committees), as adopted by the PCAOB in Rule 3600T and has discussed with our independent registered public accounting firm the firm’s independence.

The following table represents aggregate fees billed to us by CohnReznick:

In the above table, in accordance with the SEC’s definitions and rules, “audit fees” are fees we paid CohnReznick for professional services for the audit of our financial statements included in our Annual Reports on Form 10-K, review of our financial statements included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and services normally provided in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements, consents and assistance with and review of our documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee’s policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is generally detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. The independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the Audit Committee regarding the extent of services provided by the independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date. The Audit Committee may also pre-approve particular services on a case-by-case basis. The Audit Committee has determined that the rendering of the services other than audit services by CohnReznick is compatible with maintaining the principal accountant’s independence.

PROPOSAL 3 — ADVISORY VOTE ON COMPENSATION OF
EXECUTIVE OFFICERS (“SAY-ON-PAY”)

Background of Proposal

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) and related SEC rules require that we provide our stockholders with the opportunity to vote to approve, on a nonbinding, advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement.

As previously reported, in an advisory vote on the frequency of the advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers held at our 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on December 17, 2013, 23,434,027 shares voted for one year, 175,679 shares voted for two years, 14,494,461 shares voted for three years, and there were 61,561 abstentions and 17,653,046 broker non-votes.

SEC regulations state that we must hold these votes on frequency at least once every six years. In light of these voting results and other factors, our Board of Directors decided that we will hold an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers. We will continue to hold annual advisory votes unless the Board of Directors modifies its policy following the next non-binding, advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes (which is being voted on by our stockholders at this year’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders — see Item 4 of this Proxy Statement for additional information).

Our executive compensation program is designed to align the interests of our stockholders and our executive officers. We use our executive compensation programs to attract, motivate, and retain our executive officers and to ensure that their efforts focus on the long-term performance of iBio. These officers are critical to the achievement of our current and longer term strategic and financial performance goals and objectives.

Our executive compensation program is comprised of cash compensation, in the form of fixed salary, and equity-based compensation. In addition, we provide our executive officers with benefits that are generally available to our salaried employees. We believe that offering our executive officers differing forms of compensation allows us to achieve varied objectives.

Cash compensation, for example, provides our executive officers with a guaranteed minimum base salary. We fix the base salary of each of our executive officers at a level that we believe enables us to hire and retain individuals in a competitive environment and reward individual performance and contribution to our overall business goals.

Our equity-based compensation is effected through a stock option program. This is the primary means of linking our named executive officers’ compensation and the long-term performance of iBio. The stock option program encourages a long-term focus from our executives by using a multi-year minimum vesting requirement for stock options and creates an ownership culture that helps unify the interests of our executives and stockholders.

As noted above, we view the components of our executive officer compensation as related but distinct. Although our Board of Directors does review total compensation, it does not believe that compensation derived from one component of compensation should negate or reduce compensation from other components. Neither our Board of Directors nor our Compensation Committee has adopted any formal or informal policies or guidelines for allocating compensation between long-term and currently paid out compensation, between cash and equity-based compensation, or among different forms of compensation. This is due to the small size of our executive officer team and the need to tailor each executive officer’s award to attract and retain that executive officer.

Additional details about our executive compensation program, including information about compensation for our named executive officers for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, are described under the “Executive Compensation” section of this proxy statement.

We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our executive officer compensation as described in this proxy statement. This proposal, commonly known as a “say-on-pay” proposal, gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our executive officers. This vote

29

is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather to evaluate the overall compensation of our executive officers and the philosophy, policies and practices described in this proxy statement. Accordingly, the following resolution is submitted for a vote by our stockholders at the annual meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the stockholders of iBio, Inc. hereby APPROVE, on an advisory basis, the compensation paid to its named executive officers, as disclosed in the Proxy Statement for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Stockholders pursuant to the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC, including the compensation tables and the narrative discussion that accompany the compensation tables.”

This say-on-pay vote is advisory, and therefore not binding on us, the Compensation Committee or our Board of Directors. However, our Board and our Compensation Committee value the opinion of our stockholders and will consider our stockholders’ opinion when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers.

Our Board of Directors recommends that stockholders vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers by voting “FOR” this proposal.

30

PROPOSAL 4 — DVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF
FUTURE “SAY-ON-PAY” ADVISORY VOTES

Background of Proposal

In addition to requiring a “say-on-pay” vote, the Dodd-Frank Act and applicable SEC rules also require that, at least once every six years, stockholders be given the opportunity to vote on the advisory resolution set forth immediately above regarding the frequency of future say-on-pay votes (“say-on-frequency”). Stockholders may vote to recommend that future “say-on-pay” votes be held every year, every two years or every three years. We last held an advisory “say on frequency” vote at our 2013 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and the majority of the votes cast by our stockholders were in favor of holding a say-on-pay vote every year. Accordingly, we have held advisory votes on the compensation of named executive officers on an annual basis since 2013.

After careful consideration, the Board of Directors recommends that future advisory votes on the compensation of our named executive officers occur every year (annually). Our Board of Directors believes that holding a vote every year is the most appropriate option because it would enable our stockholders to continue to provide us with input regarding the compensation of our named executive officers on a timely basis.

Based on the factors discussed above, the Board has determined to recommend that future advisory votes on executive compensation occur every year until the next “say on frequency” advisory vote. The next advisory vote on the frequency of holding a say-on-pay vote (after this year’s vote) will occur no later than the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Stockholders will be able to specify one of four choices for this proposal on the proxy card: one year, two years, three years or abstain. Stockholders are not voting to approve or disapprove the Board’s recommendation, but rather to indicate their choice among these frequency options. Although the Board intends to consider the results of this advisory vote on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes held by the Company, the voting results are non-binding on the Board. Notwithstanding the Board’s recommendation and the outcome of the stockholder vote, the Board may in the future decide to conduct advisory votes on a more or less frequent basis and may vary its practice based on factors such as discussions with stockholders and the adoption of material changes to compensation programs.

In order for any of the three alternative frequencies to be approved, it must receive a majority of the votes cast on this proposal. In the event that no option receives a majority of the votes cast, we will consider the option that receives the most votes to be the option selected by the stockholders.

Our board of directors is asking stockholders to vote, on a non-binding advisory basis, on the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the option of once every one, two or three years that receives the highest number of votes cast will be considered to be the preferred frequency of the stockholders with which iBio is to hold future non-binding stockholder advisory votes on executive compensation.”

Our board of directors believes that holding the executive compensation advisory vote every year is in the best interests of iBio and its stockholders and recommends voting for a frequency of every “ONE YEAR”.

PROPOSAL 5 — APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT OF THE COMPANY’S AMENDED CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION TO EFFECT A REVERSE STOCK SPLIT OF COMMON STOCK AT A SPECIFIC RATIO WITHIN A RANGE FROM ONE-FOR-FIVE (1:5) TO ONE-FOR-TWENTY-FIVE (1:25)

General

Our Board of Directors has adopted and is recommending that our stockholders approve an amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and thereby authorize the Board of Directors to effect a reverse stock split of our outstanding shares of common stock. Our stockholders are being asked to approve the proposal that Article IV of our Certificate of Incorporation be amended to effect a reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock within a range of one share of common stock for every two shares of common stock to one share of common stock for every ten shares of common stock, with the exact reverse split ratio to be decided and publicly announced by the Board prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split amendment. Pursuant to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, our state of incorporation, the Board of Directors must adopt any amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation and submit the amendment to stockholders for their approval. The form of amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to effect the reverse stock split (“Reverse Split Amendment”) is attached as Appendix A to this proxy statement.

If the stockholders approve this Proposal 5, the Board will have the authority to decide, at any time prior to twelve months after the approval at the Annual Meeting, whether to implement the reverse stock split and the precise ratio of the reverse stock split within a range of one-for-five (1:5) shares of our common stock to one-for-twenty-five (1:25) shares of our common stock. If the Board decides to implement the reverse stock split, the reverse stock split will become effective upon the filing of the Reverse Split Amendment.

The Board of Directors reserves the right, even after stockholder approval, to abandon or postpone the filing of the Reverse Split Amendment if the Board of Directors determines that it is not in the best interests of the Company and the stockholders. If the Reverse Split Amendment is not filed by the Company within twelve months after the approval at the Annual Meeting, the proposal will be deemed abandoned, without any further effect. In that case, the Board of Directors may again seek stockholder approval at a future date for a reverse stock split if it deems a reverse stock split to be advisable at that time.

The reverse stock split would reduce the number of shares of common stock outstanding without reducing the total number of authorized shares of common stock. As a result, we would have a larger number of authorized but unissued shares from which to issue additional shares of common stock, or securities convertible or exercisable into shares of common stock, in equity financing transactions. The reverse stock split will not change the number of authorized shares of preferred stock, or the par value of common stock or preferred stock.

Purpose and Background of the Reverse Stock Split

The Board of Directors believes that a reverse stock split is desirable and should be approved by stockholders for a number of reasons. The primary objective in proposing the reverse stock split is to maintain our listing on the NYSE AMERICAN LLC (“NYSE American”) exchange. In addition, our Board believes that effecting the reverse stock split would, among other things, better enable us to raise funds to finance our operations by making more shares of our authorized common stock available for future issuance.

Our common stock is listed on the NYSE American exchange. Section 1003 of the NYSE American exchange listing rules provides that the NYSE American exchange will consider suspending from trading or delisting a common stock of a Company if minimum shareholders’ equity, stock price and number of stockholders standards are not met by that Company. On December 9, 2019, the Company received notification from the NYSE American pursuant to Section 1003(f)(v) of the NYSE American’s Company Guide that, due to the Company’s current low selling share price, the Company’s continued listing on the NYSE American exchange is predicated on the Company effecting a reverse stock split or otherwise demonstrating sustained improvement in its share price within a reasonable period of time, which NYSE American has determined to be no later than June 9, 2020.

32

In the event that NYSE American determines that the Company has not timely cured the foregoing deficiency, NYSE American most likely will initiate procedures to delist our Common Stock from the NYSE American exchange. The Company’s common stock will continue to be listed on the NYSE American exchange while it attempts to regain compliance with the listing standards noted, subject to the Company’s compliance with other continued listing requirements. The Company’s common stock will continue to trade under the symbol “IBIO,” but will have an added designation of  “.BC” to indicate that the Company is not in compliance with NYSE American’s listing standards.

Our Board of Directors has determined that the continued listing of our common stock on the NYSE American exchange is beneficial for our stockholders. If our common stock were delisted from the NYSE American exchange, the Board of Directors believes that the trading market for our common stock could become significantly less liquid, which could reduce the trading price of our common stock and increase the transaction costs of trading in shares of our common stock. Therefore, the Board has deemed it appropriate to effect a reverse stock split that would be intended to cure the price condition deficiency and restore the Company to compliance under the continued listing criteria set forth in the NYSE American’s Company Guide.

The closing sale price of our common stock on January 9, 2020 was $0.26 per share. Our Board has considered the potential harm to the Company of a delisting from the NYSE American exchange and believes that a reverse stock split would help us maintain compliance with the NYSE American exchange listing rules. Our Board believes it is necessary to retain discretion whether to implement, and if implemented, to determine the exact ratio of the reverse split within the range of one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-twenty-five (1:25) as the Board deems it to be in the best interests of the Company. Accordingly, the Board has approved a proposed amendment to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, that would effect a reverse stock split of our Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share, at a ratio not less than one-for-five (1:5) and not greater than one-for-twenty-five (1:25), with the exact ratio to be publicly announced and determined by our Board at a later date without further approval or authorization of our stockholders.

Since our spin-off from Integrated BioPharma, Inc. (“Integrated BioPharma”) in August 2008, we have incurred significant losses and negative cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2019, the Company’s accumulated deficit was $105.8 million. For the year ended June 30, 2019, the Company’s net loss was approximately $17.6 million and it had cash used in operating activities of  $14.0 million. We expect our existing cash on hand as of January 9, 2020, in the amount of approximately $4.6 million, together with proceeds realized in connection with license and collaboration arrangements and the operation of our subsidiary, iBio CDMO will be sufficient to meet our projected operating requirements through March 15, 2020. Based on our projections, the Company plans to fund its future business operations using cash on hand, through proceeds from the sale of additional equity or other securities, and through proceeds realized in connection with the commercialization of its technologies and proprietary products, license and collaboration arrangements and the operation of iBio CDMO.

We are entitled under our certificate of incorporation to issue up to 275 million shares of common stock. As of the Record Date, we had issued and outstanding [59,327,455] shares of common stock, options to purchase approximately [1.3 million] shares of common stock, approximately [2.2 million] shares of common stock reserved for future issuance of additional option grants under our 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, [42.1 million] shares of common stock reserved for issuance on conversion of outstanding warrants, and [28.9 million] shares of common stock reserved for issuance upon conversion of outstanding shares of our preferred stock. Accordingly, as of the Record Date, we have approximately [141.2 million] authorized shares of common stock available for future issuance. We anticipate seeking equity financing in the near future and we believe that the reverse stock split will help ensure that the Company has sufficient authorized shares available for issuance to allow it to pursue equity financing if the Board determines that it would be in the best interests of the Company based on the Company’s working capital needs and prevailing market conditions. To the extent that the Company raises additional funds by issuing additional shares of common stock, its stockholders may experience significant dilution.

In addition, a reverse stock split could allow a broader range of institutions to invest in the Company’s stock (namely, funds that are prohibited from buying stocks with a price below a certain threshold), potentially increasing trading volume and liquidity. A reverse stock split may also help increase analyst and

33

broker interest in the Company’s stock, since their policies can discourage them from following or recommending companies with lower stock prices. Because of the trading volatility often associated with lower-priced stocks, many brokerage houses and institutional investors have adopted internal policies and practices that either prohibit or discourage them from investing in such stocks or recommending them to their customers. Some of those policies and practices may also function to make the processing of trades in lower-priced stocks economically unattractive to brokers. Additionally, because brokers’ commissions on transactions in lower-priced stocks generally represent a higher percentage of the stock price than commissions on higher-priced stocks, the current average price per share of the Company’s common stock can result in individual stockholders paying transaction costs representing a higher percentage of their total share value than would be the case if the share price were substantially higher.

The purpose of seeking stockholder approval of a range of exchange ratios from one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-twenty-five (1:25), rather than a fixed exchange ratio, is to provide us with the flexibility to achieve the desired results of the reverse stock split. If our stockholders approve this proposal, our Board of Directors or a committee thereof would effect a reverse stock split only upon the Board or committee’s determination that a reverse stock split would be in the best interests of the Company at that time. If our Board were to effect a reverse stock split, the Board would set the timing for such a split and select the specific ratio within the range of one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-twenty-five (1:25). No further action on the part of stockholders would be required to either implement or abandon the reverse stock split.

If our stockholders approve the proposal, and the Board or a committee of the Board determines to effect the reverse stock split, we would communicate to the public, prior to the effective date of the reverse stock split, additional details regarding the reverse stock split, including the specific ratio selected by the Board or committee. If our Board or a committee thereof does not implement the reverse stock split within twelve months after the approval at the Annual Meeting, the authority granted in this proposal to implement the reverse stock split will terminate. Our Board reserves its right to elect not to proceed with the reverse stock split if it determines, in its sole discretion, that this proposal is no longer in the best interests of the Company.

Determination of Reverse Stock Split Ratio

The Board of Directors believes that stockholder approval of an amendment that would allow the Board to determine the exact reverse stock split ratio within a specified range of one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-twenty-five (1:25) (rather than stockholder approval of a fixed reverse stock split ratio) provides the flexibility to achieve the desired results of the reverse stock split.

In determining the range of reverse stock split ratios to be submitted for stockholder approval, the Board considered numerous factors, including:

•

the projected impact of the reverse stock split ratio on the trading liquidity in our common stock and the Company’s ability to continue our common stock’s listing on the NYSE American exchange;

​

•

the potential devaluation of the Company’s market capitalization as a result of a reverse stock split;

​

•

the historical and projected performance of our common stock and volume level before and after the reverse stock split;

​

•

prevailing market conditions;

​

•

general economic and other related conditions prevailing in the Company’s industry and in the marketplace generally;

​

•

the Company’s capitalization (including the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding);

​

•

the prevailing trading prices for our common stock and its trading volume;

​

•

discussions with and information provided by the Company’s financial advisor; and

​

•

feedback from investors and potential investors on the ranges of acceptable reverse stock splits.

​

34

The Board will consider the conditions, information and circumstances existing at the time when it determines whether to implement a reverse stock split and, if it decides to implement a reverse stock split, the precise reverse stock split ratio.

Principal Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

If the stockholders approve the proposal to authorize the Board of Directors to implement the reverse stock split and the Board of Directors implements the reverse stock split, we will amend Article IV of our Certificate of Incorporation (which sets forth our authorized capital), to read as set forth in Appendix A.

The reverse stock split will be effected simultaneously for all issued and outstanding shares of common stock. The reverse stock split will affect all of our common stockholders uniformly and will not affect any stockholder’s percentage ownership interests in the Company, except to the extent that the reverse stock split results in any of our stockholders owning a fractional share. After the reverse stock split, the shares of our common stock and preferred stock will have the same proportional voting rights and rights to dividends and distributions and will be identical in all other respects to our common stock and preferred stock now authorized. The reverse stock split will not affect the Company continuing to be subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The reverse stock split is not intended to be, and will not have the effect of, a “going private transaction” covered by Rule 13e-3 under the Exchange Act.

The reverse stock split may result in some stockholders owning “odd-lots” of less than 100 shares of our common stock. Brokerage commissions and other costs of transactions in odd-lots are generally higher than the costs of transactions in “round-lots” of even multiples of 100 shares.

Procedure for Effecting Reverse Stock Split and Exchange of Stock Certificates, if Applicable

If the certificate of amendment effecting the reverse stock split is approved by the Company’s stockholders, and if at such time the Board of Directors still believes that a reverse stock split is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders, the Company will file the certificate of amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware at such time as the Board of Directors deems appropriate to effect the reverse stock split. The Board of Directors may delay effecting the reverse stock split for up to 12 months after the Annual Meeting without re-soliciting stockholder approval.

Beginning on the effective date of the split, each certificate representing pre-split shares will be deemed for all corporate purposes to evidence ownership of post-split shares. We intend to treat stockholders holding shares of our common stock in “street name” (that is, held through a bank, broker or other nominee) in the same manner as registered stockholders whose shares are registered in their names. Banks, brokers or other nominees will be instructed to effect the reverse stock split for their beneficial holders holding shares of our common stock in “street name;” however, these banks, brokers or other nominees may apply their own specific procedures for processing the reverse stock split. If you hold your shares of common stock with a bank, broker or other nominee, and if you have any questions in this regard, we encourage you to contact your nominee.

As soon as practicable after the effective date of the split, stockholders will be notified that the reverse stock split has been effected. If you hold shares of our stock in a book-entry form, you will receive a transmittal letter from the Company’s transfer agent as soon as practicable after the effective time of the reverse stock split with instructions on how to exchange your shares. After you submit your completed transmittal letter, if you are entitled to post-split shares of our common stock, a transaction statement will be sent to your address of record as soon as practicable after the effective date of the split indicating the number of shares of common stock you hold. If you are entitled to a payment in lieu of any fractional share interest, payment will be made as described below under “Fractional Shares.”

Some stockholders hold their shares of common stock in certificate form or a combination of certificate and book-entry forms. We expect that our transfer agent will act as exchange agent for purposes of implementing the exchange of stock certificates, if applicable. If you are a stockholder holding pre-split shares in certificate form, you will receive a transmittal letter from the Company’s transfer agent as soon as practicable after the effective time of the reverse stock split. The transmittal letter will be accompanied by instructions specifying how you can exchange your certificate representing the pre-split shares for a

35

statement of holding, together with any payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares to which you are entitled. When you submit your certificate representing the pre-split shares, your post-split shares will be held electronically in book-entry form. This means that, instead of receiving a new stock certificate, you will receive a statement of holding that indicates the number of post-split shares you own in book-entry form. We will no longer issue physical stock certificates unless you make a specific request for a share certificate representing your post-split ownership interest.

STOCKHOLDERS SHOULD NOT DESTROY ANY STOCK CERTIFICATE(S) AND SHOULD NOT SUBMIT ANY CERTIFICATE(S) UNTIL REQUESTED TO DO SO.

If you are entitled to a payment in lieu of any fractional share interest, payment will be made as described below under “Fractional Shares.”

Principal Effects of the Reverse Stock Split

Currently, we are authorized to issue up to a total of 275,000,000 shares of common stock, of which [59,327,455] shares were issued and outstanding as of the Record Date. The proposed reverse stock split will not alter the relative rights and preferences of existing stockholders, subject to the payment of cash in lieu of fractional shares, or the number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance. The number of stockholders of record will not be affected by the reverse stock split, except to the extent that any stockholder would hold only a fractional share interest and receives cash for that interest after the reverse stock split. The reverse stock split will increase the number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock available for future issuance in proportion to the number of issued and outstanding shares.

Based on our [59,327,455] shares of common stock outstanding as of the Record Date, the principal effect of the Reverse Stock Split will be that the number of shares of our common stock issued and outstanding will be reduced from [59,327,455] shares as of the Record Date to a range of [11,865,491] (if a one-for-five (1:5) ratio is chosen) to [2,373,098] shares (if a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) ratio is chosen), depending on the exact exchange ratio chosen by the Board.

The principal effects of the reverse stock split will be as follows:

•

each five (5) to twenty-five (25) shares of common stock, inclusive, as determined in the sole discretion of our Board, will be combined into one new share of common stock, with any fractional shares that would otherwise be issuable as a result of the split being paid a cash payment in lieu thereof in an amount equal to the fraction to which such holder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the NYSE American exchange immediately prior to the Effective Time;

​

•

the number of shares of common stock issued and outstanding will be reduced accordingly;

​

•

proportionate adjustments will be made to the per share exercise prices and/or the number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise or conversion of options, warrants, preferred stock and any other convertible or exchangeable securities, entitling the holders to purchase, exchange for, or convert into, shares of common stock, which will result in approximately the same aggregate price being required to be paid for such securities upon exercise or conversion as had been payable immediately preceding the reverse stock split;

​

•

the number of shares reserved for issuance or under the securities described immediately above will be reduced proportionately; and

​

•

the number of shares of common stock available for future issuance will increase accordingly.

​

Effect on Authorized Preferred Stock

As of the Record Date, there were one million shares of preferred stock authorized with [one] share of our iBio CMO Preferred Tracking Stock, [12] shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, [5,785] shares of Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and [20] shares of Series C Convertible Preferred Stock issued and outstanding. The total number of authorized shares of preferred stock and the total outstanding shares of preferred stock will not be affected by the reverse stock split.

36

Shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, Series B Convertible Preferred Stock and Series C Convertible Preferred Stock are convertible into common stock at the holder’s option at a conversion price of  $0.20. Upon effectiveness of the reverse stock split, the conversion price of the Series A Preferred Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and Series C Preferred Stock will be adjusted by multiplying the conversion price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately before the reverse stock split and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after the reverse stock split.

Effect on Stock Plans

The proposed reverse stock split will reduce the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Company’s equity incentive plan in proportion to the reverse stock split ratio designated by the Board (rounding any fractional shares up to the nearest whole share), and the exercise price per share would be a corresponding multiple of the previous exercise price (rounded down to the nearest cent). For example, if the Company effects a one-for-five (1:5) reverse stock split, a pre-split option for 15,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of  $1.00 per share would be converted post-split into an option to purchase 3,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of  $5.00 per share; if the Company effects a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) reverse stock split, the same option would be converted post-split into an option to purchase 600 shares of common stock with an exercise price of  $25.00 per share. Further, the number of shares of common stock authorized and reserved for issuance under the plans will be reduced in proportion to the exchange ratio of the reverse stock split.

As of the Record Date, the Company had reserved or authorized for issuance approximately 1.3 million shares of common stock pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plan. If the reverse stock split is effected, the amount of common stock reserved or authorized for issuance pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plan will be reduced to a range of approximately [260,000] (if a one-for-five (1:5) ratio is chosen) to approximately [52,000] shares (if a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) ratio is chosen), depending on the exact exchange ratio chosen by the Board.

Effect on Warrants and Convertible Notes

As of the Record Date, the Company has outstanding [17.2 million] Series A Warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of  $0.22 per share and [24.9 million] Series B Warrants to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of  $0.22 per share. Upon effectiveness of the reverse stock split, the exercise price under the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants will be adjusted by multiplying the exercise price by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately before the reverse stock split and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of common stock outstanding immediately after the reverse stock split. Simultaneously with the adjustment to the exercise price, the number of shares of common stock that may be purchased upon exercise of the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants will be decreased proportionately, so that after such adjustment the aggregate exercise price payable under the warrants for the adjusted number of shares of common stock issuable upon exercise shall be the same as the aggregate exercise price in effect immediately prior to such adjustment.

There are no convertible notes convertible into common stock outstanding as of the Record Date.

Fractional Shares

No fractional shares will be issued in connection with the reverse stock split. Stockholders of record who otherwise would be entitled to receive fractional shares, because they hold a number of pre-split shares not evenly divisible by the number of pre-split shares for which each post-split share is to be exchanged, will be entitled, upon the submission of a transmission letter by a stockholder holding the shares in book-entry form and, where shares are held in certificated form, upon surrender to the exchange agent of certificates representing such shares, to a cash payment in lieu thereof. All shares of common stock (including fractions thereof) held by a holder immediately prior to the reverse stock split shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the reverse stock split would result in the issuance of a fractional share. Any fractional share resulting from such aggregation of common stock upon the reverse stock split shall be converted into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the fraction to which such holder would

37

otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of a share of common stock on the NYSE American exchange immediately prior to the effective time of the reverse stock split. The ownership of a fractional interest will not give the holder thereof any voting, dividend, or other rights except to receive payment therefor as described herein.

Stockholders should be aware that, under the escheat laws of the various jurisdictions where stockholders reside, where the Company is domiciled, and where the funds will be deposited, sums due for fractional interests that are not timely claimed after the effective date of the split may be required to be paid to the designated agent for each such jurisdiction, unless correspondence has been received by the Company or the exchange agent concerning ownership of such funds within the time permitted in such jurisdiction. Thereafter, stockholders otherwise entitled to receive such funds will have to seek to obtain them directly from the state to which they were paid. No transaction costs will be assessed to stockholders for the cash payment in lieu of fractional shares. Stockholders will not be entitled to receive interest for the period of time between the effective date of the reverse stock split and the date payment is made for fractional shares.

Accounting Matters

The reverse stock split will not affect the par value per share of our common stock, which will remain unchanged. As a result, as of the effective time of the reverse stock split, the stated capital attributable to our common stock on the Company’s balance sheet (which consists of the par value per share of our common stock multiplied by the aggregate number of the issued shares of common stock) will be reduced proportionately based on the reverse stock split ratio selected by the Board, and the additional paid-in capital account (which consists of the difference between the Company’s stated capital and the aggregate amount paid to us upon the issuance of all currently issued shares of common stock) will be credited with the amount by which the stated capital is reduced. The per-share net income or loss and net book value of our common stock will be increased as a result of the reverse stock split because there will be fewer shares of common stock outstanding.

No Dissenters’ Rights

Under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, the Company’s stockholders will not be entitled to dissenters’ rights with respect to the reverse stock split, and we do not intend to independently provide stockholders with any such right.

Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split

The following discussion describes the material United States Federal income tax consequences to “U.S. holders” (as defined below) of Company common stock relating to the reverse stock split. This discussion is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), Treasury Regulations, judicial authorities, published positions of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), and other applicable authorities, all as currently in effect and all of which are subject to change or differing interpretations (possibly with retroactive effect). We have not obtained a ruling from the IRS or an opinion of legal or tax counsel with respect to the tax consequences of the reverse stock split. The following discussion is for informational purposes only and is not intended as tax or legal advice. Each holder should seek advice based on the holder’s particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

For purposes of this discussion, the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of Company common stock that is for United States Federal income tax purposes:

•

an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

​

•

a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. Federal income tax purposes) organized under the laws of the United States, any state, or the District of Columbia;

​

•

an estate with income subject to United States Federal income tax regardless of its source; or

​

•

a trust that (a) is subject to primary supervision by a United States court and for which United States persons control all substantial decisions or (b) has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a United States person.

​

38

This discussion assumes that a U.S. holder holds Company common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Code Section 1221. This discussion does not address all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular Company stockholder or to Company stockholders that are subject to special treatment under United States Federal income tax laws including, but not limited to, banks, financial institutions, tax-exempt organizations, insurance companies, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, persons that are broker-dealers, traders in securities who elect the mark-to-market method of accounting for their securities, certain former citizens or long-term residents of the U.S., or Company stockholders holding their shares of Company common stock as part of a “straddle,” “hedge,” “conversion transaction,” or other integrated transaction. This discussion also does not address the tax consequences to the Company, or to Company stockholders that own 5% or more of the Company’s common stock, are affiliates of the Company, or are not U.S. holders. In addition, this discussion does not address other United States Federal taxes (such as gift or estate taxes or alternative minimum taxes), the tax consequences of the reverse stock split under state, local, or foreign tax laws or certain tax reporting requirements that may be applicable with respect to the reverse stock split. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences set forth below.

If a partnership (or other entity treated as a partnership for United States Federal income tax purposes) is a Company stockholder, the tax treatment of a partner in the partnership, or any equity owner of such other entity will generally depend upon the status of the person and the activities of the partnership or other entity treated as a partnership for United States Federal income tax purposes.

Tax Consequences of the Reverse Stock Split Generally

We believe that the reverse stock split will qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a)(1)(E) of the Code, with the following consequences:

•

A U.S. holder will not recognize any gain or loss as a result of the reverse stock split (except to the extent of cash received in lieu of a fractional share).

​

•

A U.S. holder’s aggregate tax basis the U.S. holder’s post-reverse stock split shares will be equal to the aggregate tax basis in the pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged therefor, reduced by the amount of the adjusted basis of any pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged for such post-reverse stock split shares that is allocated to any fractional share for which cash is received.

​

•

A U.S. holder’s holding period for the post-reverse stock split shares will include the period during which such stockholder held the pre-reverse stock split shares surrendered in the reverse stock split.

​

Cash Received Instead of a Fractional Share

A U.S. holder who receives cash instead of a fractional share of post-reverse stock split shares will be treated as having received the fractional share of post-reverse stock split shares pursuant to the reverse stock split and then as having exchanged the fractional share of post-reverse stock split shares for cash in a transaction treated as a sale of the shares. Gain or loss generally will be recognized based on the difference between the amount of cash received and the portion of the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis of the pre-reverse stock split shares exchanged in the reverse stock split which is allocable to such fractional share. Such gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for such pre-reverse stock split shares is more than one year as of the effective date of the reverse stock split, and otherwise will be short-term capital gain or loss.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Cash payments received by a U.S. holder of Company common stock pursuant to the reverse stock split are subject to information reporting, and may be subject to backup withholding at the applicable rate specified by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service if the holder fails to provide a valid taxpayer identification number and comply with certain certification procedures or otherwise establish an exemption from backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional United States Federal income tax. Rather, the U.S.

39

Federal income tax liability of the person subject to backup withholding will be reduced by the amount of the tax withheld. If backup withholding results in an overpayment of taxes, a refund may be obtained provided that the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

Vote Required and Board of Directors Recommendation

Approval of the Reverse Stock Split Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote on this matter. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have the same effect as a vote “Against” the Reverse Stock Split Proposal, because the proposal requires an affirmative vote by a majority of the shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote. Unless otherwise indicated, properly executed proxies will be voted in favor of this Reverse Stock Split Proposal.

Therefore, the Board unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” approval of the amendment of the Company’s Amended Certificate of Incorporation to effect a reverse stock split of Common Stock at a specific ratio within a range from one-for-five (1:5) to one-for-twenty-five (1:25).

PROPOSAL 6 — APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT TO OUR 2018 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE THEREUNDER FROM 3.5 MILLION SHARES TO 6.5 MILLION SHARES AND TO INCORPORATE CHANGES TO INCLUDE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS AND PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS AS GRANT TYPES ISSUABLE UNDER THE 2018 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

On December 18, 2018, the Company adopted the iBioPharma 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) for employees, officers, directors and external service providers. Under the provisions of the Plan, the Company may grant options to purchase stock and/or make awards of restricted stock up to an aggregate amount of 3.5 million shares. Stock options granted under the Plan may be either incentive stock options (as defined by Section 422 of the internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended) or non-qualified stock options at the discretion of the board of directors. Vesting of awards occurs ratably on the anniversary of the grant date over the service period as determined at the time of grant.

Our Board believes that stock options, restricted stock awards and other equity incentive awards play an important role in the success of our Company by encouraging and enabling our employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors upon whose judgment, initiative and efforts we largely depend for the successful conduct of our business to acquire a proprietary interest in our Company. Our board of directors believes that providing such persons with a direct stake in the Company will effect a closer identification of the interests of such individuals with those of the Company and our stockholders, thereby stimulating their efforts on our behalf and strengthening their desire to remain with the Company.

At September 30, 2019, we had approximately 1.3 million options to purchase shares of common stock outstanding and approximately 2.2 million shares of common stock reserved for future issuance of additional option grants under our Plan. The weighted average remaining contractual life for options outstanding at September 30, 2019 was 5.9 years and the weighted average exercise price for such options was $1.45.

As described under Proposal 5 — “Principal Effects of the Reverse Stock Split — Effect on Stock Plans” if the proposed reverse stock split is approved and implemented, the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan will be reduced in proportion to the reverse stock split ratio designated by the Board. For example, if the Company effects a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) reverse stock split, a pre-split option for 15,000 shares of common stock with an exercise price of  $1.00 per share would be converted post-split into an option to purchase 600 shares of common stock with an exercise price of $25.00 per share. Further, the number of shares of common stock authorized and reserved for issuance under the Plan will be reduced in proportion to the exchange ratio of the reverse stock split. For example, if the proposed increase to the Plan is not approved and the Company effects a one-for-twenty-five (1:25) reverse stock split, the total shares authorized under the Plan would be reduced to 140,000.

Our Board believes that without an increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the Plan, the Plan will be unlikely to have the desired effect of enabling the Company to recruit and retain employees necessary for the Company’s success while diminishing the Company’s working capital if required for recruitment and retention. Further, our Board believes that by including restricted stock units and performance-based awards the Company will greater flexibility in structuring compensation to recruit and retain employees.

Our board of directors is submitting the Plan, as amended, for approval by our stockholders and has specifically conditioned the effectiveness of the amendment on such approval. If our stockholders do not approve the Plan, as amended, the existing Plan, as amended, excluding the proposed increase in shares available for issuance thereunder and the inclusion of restricted stock units and performance-based awards, will remain in effect. In such event, our board of directors will consider whether to adopt alternative arrangements based on its assessment of our needs.

Summary of Material Features of the Plan, as Amended under this Proposal

The material features of the Plan, as amended under this proposal, are:

•

The maximum number of shares of common stock to be issued under the Plan is 6.5 million (if Proposal 5 is approved and the Board effects a reverse stock split, the maximum number of shares of common stock to be issued under the Plan will be adjusted to reflect to the reverse stock split);

​

41

•

The award of stock options (both incentive and non-qualified options), restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance-based awards is permitted; and

​

•

Any material amendment to the Plan, to the extent required by applicable law, regulations and rules, is subject to approval by our stockholders.

​

Based solely on the closing price of our common stock as reported by the NYSE American on January 9, 2020, the maximum aggregate market value of the additional 3 million shares of common stock that could potentially be issued under the Plan pursuant to the amendment is $780,000. The shares we issue under the Plan will be authorized but unissued shares or treasury shares. The shares of common stock underlying any awards that expire or are terminated, surrendered or canceled without having been fully exercised or are forfeited in whole or in part are added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance under the Plan.

Summary of the Plan, as Amended under this Proposal

The following description of certain features of the Plan, as amended under this proposal, is intended to be a summary only. The summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Plan, as amended, that is attached as Appendix B to the electronic copy of this proxy statement filed with the SEC and may be accessed from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov. In addition, a copy of the Plan, as amended, may be obtained by making a written request to: iBio, Inc., Attention: Secretary, 600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601, New York, NY 10022.

Summary of 2018 Plan Features

Purpose

The purpose of the 2018 Plan is to promote the success and enhance the value of the Company by linking the personal interests of the participants to those of the Company’s shareholders, and by providing participants with an incentive for outstanding performance. The 2018 Plan is further intended to provide flexibility to the Company in its ability to attract, motivate and retain the services of participants upon whose judgment, interest and special effort the success of the Company is substantially dependent.

Administration

The 2018 Plan will be administered by our board of directors. To the extent consistent with our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and applicable law, our board of directors has the authority to grant awards and adopt, amend and repeal the administrative rules, guidelines and practices relating to the 2018 Plan and to interpret the provisions of the 2018 Plan. Pursuant to the terms of the 2018 Plan, our board of directors may delegate its authority under the 2018 Plan to one or more committees, each consisting of one more members of the board of directors.

Stock Subject to 2018 Plan

If the amendment to the 2018 Plan is approved, the total number of shares of common stock reserved under the 2018 Plan will be 6.5 million, all of which will be available for issuance as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code. Subject to the express provisions of the 2018 Plan, if any award granted under the 2018 Plan terminates, expires, or lapses for any reason, or is paid in cash, any stock subject to or surrendered for such award will again be stock available for the grant of an award under the 2018 Plan. In the event that any shares are tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price of an option (for example, through a broker-assisted “cashless” exercise of an option), then the shares so tendered or withheld shall be added to the shares available for grant under the 2018 Plan. In the event that any shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy a tax withholding obligation arising in connection with an award, then the shares so tendered or withheld shall be added to the shares available for grant under the 2018 Plan.

Eligibility and Participation

All employees, officers, non-employee directors of, and certain consultants to, the Company or an affiliate, as determined by the board of directors, are eligible to participate in the 2018 Plan. In addition, prospective employees, consultants and non-employee directors are eligible to participate in the 2018 Plan

42

but no portion of any such award will vest, become exercisable, be settled or become effective prior to the date on which such individual begins providing services to the Company.

Types of Awards Available Under the 2018 Plan

The following types of awards may be granted pursuant to the 2018 Plan: incentive stock options, nonqualified stock options, and restricted stock.

Stock Options.   The 2018 Plan permits the granting of  (1) options to purchase common stock intended to qualify as incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code and (2) options that do not so qualify. Options granted under the Plan will be non-qualified options if they fail to qualify as incentive options or exceed the annual limit on incentive stock options. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees of the Company and its subsidiaries. The option exercise price of each incentive stock option will be determined by our board of directors but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant (110% of fair market value for employees who are also 10% shareholders). Non-qualified options may be granted to any persons eligible to receive incentive options and to non-employee directors, consultants and advisors. The option exercise price of each non-qualified stock option will be determined by our board of directors but may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant fair market value for these purposes is the closing price (for the primary trading session) of our common stock on the NYSE American on the date of grant.

The term of each option will be fixed by our board of directors and may not exceed ten years from the date of grant. Our board of directors will determine at what time or times each option may be exercised. Options may be made exercisable in installments and the exercisability of options may be accelerated by our board of directors. In general, unless otherwise permitted by our board of directors, no option granted under the Plan is transferable by the optionee other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and options may be exercised during the optionee’s lifetime only by the optionee, or by the optionee’s legal representative or guardian in the case of the optionee’s incapacity.

Upon exercise of options, the option exercise price must be paid in full either in cash or by cash equivalents acceptable to our board of directors. To the extent permitted under applicable law and provided for in the applicable option agreement or approved by our board of directors, in its sole discretion, the exercise price may be paid by delivery (or attestation to the ownership) of shares of common stock that are beneficially owned by the optionee. Additionally, to the extent provided in the applicable option agreement or approved by our board of directors, the exercise price may also be delivered to the Company (1) by a broker pursuant to irrevocable instructions to the broker from the optionee or by delivery to the Company of a full recourse promissory note with such other terms and conditions as determined by our board of directors or (2) by using a net exercise feature which reduces the number of shares issued to the optionee by the number of shares with a fair market value equal to the exercise price.

To qualify as incentive options, options must meet additional federal tax requirements, including a $100,000 limit on the value of shares subject to incentive options that first become exercisable by a participant in any one calendar year.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.   The 2018 Plan permits our board of directors to award shares of common stock and restricted stock units to participants subject to such conditions and restrictions as our board of directors may determine. These conditions and restrictions may include the achievement of certain performance goals and/or continued service to iBio through a specified restricted period.

Performance-Based Awards.    At the time of grant, the committee may designate any incentive award as a performance compensation award, and establish performance conditions for the grant, vesting or settlement therefor.

Restrictions

The board of directors may impose such restrictions on any awards under the 2018 Plan as it may deem advisable, including restrictions under applicable federal securities law, under the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Company’s common stock is then listed and under any blue sky or state securities law applicable to the awards.

43

Change in Control

To the extent that a change of control occurs in connection with a reorganization and the acquiring or succeeding company fails to assume or substitute substantially equivalent awards, all outstanding shares of restricted stock will either vest and all restrictions on such shares will lapse immediately prior to the occurrence of the change of control or such awards will be cancelled and in lieu thereof the per share price paid to holders of common stock in the reorganization will be paid to the 2018 Plan participants with cancelled restricted stock awards. With respect to outstanding options in the case of a reorganization that constitutes a “change in control,” our board of directors may take either of the following two actions. Not less than 15 days prior to the occurrence of the reorganization event, our board of directors may accelerate the vesting of all options which will remain exercisable for a 15 day period. Alternatively, our board of directors may, in its sole discretion cancel the outstanding options and pay or deliver in lieu thereof cash or securities having a value equal to the excess, if any, of  (A) the per share price to be paid to holders of common stock in the reorganization event multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to the participant’s awards over (B) the aggregate exercise price of all such outstanding awards and any applicable tax withholdings, in exchange for the termination of such awards.

Non-Transferability

Unless otherwise determined by the board of directors, no award granted under the 2018 Plan may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution or, if authorized by the board of directors, to certain family members in a not-for-value transfer, or, if applicable, until the termination of any restricted or performance period as determined by the board of directors.

Adjustment Provisions

Except to the extent provided in an award agreement or otherwise agreed by the participant, the 2018 Plan requires that our board of directors make appropriate adjustments to the number of shares of common stock that are subject to the 2018 Plan and to any outstanding awards to reflect stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, recapitalizations, reclassifications, combination of shares, exchange of shares or other increases or decreases in the iBio common stock that is effected without receipt of consideration by iBio, including a reorganization, consolidation or merger. Any adjustment to an incentive stock option shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 424 of the Code. Further, any adjustments made shall be made consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code.

Clawback

Every award granted under the 2018 Plan is subject to potential forfeiture or recovery to the fullest extent called for by law, any applicable listing standard, or any clawback policy that may be adopted by the Company from time to time, including, without limitation, any clawback policy adopted to comply with the final rules issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and any listing standards to adopted by the NYSE American pursuant to Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act.

Amendment, Modification and Termination of 2018 Plan

Our board of directors may at any time amend, suspend or terminate the Plan. No amendment, suspension or termination of the 2018 Plan shall alter or impair the rights or obligations arising under any award previously made under the 2018 Plan unless the consent of the participant has been obtained. An amendment to the 2018 Plan shall be contingent upon approval by the Company’s stockholders only to the extent required by applicable law, regulation or rule. As required under the rules of the NYSE American, any amendments that materially change the terms of the 2018 Plan will be subject to approval by our stockholders.

Tax Withholding

Participants in the 2018 Plan are responsible for the payment of any federal, state or local taxes that the Company is required by law to withhold upon the exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock

44

awards. iBio has the right to deduct from any payments due to a participant any federal state or local taxes that are due upon exercise of options or vesting of restricted stock awards. With the prior approval of our board of directors, a participant may satisfy the amounts required to be withheld by making payment of such amounts, delivering to the Company shares of common stock that have a fair market value equal to amounts required to be withheld or by authorizing the Company to withhold shares of stock otherwise payable to the participant pursuant to the exercise or vesting.

Federal Income Tax Information

The following is a brief summary of certain of the federal income tax consequences of certain transactions under the 2018 Plan based on federal income tax laws in effect on January 9, 2020. This summary is not intended to be exhaustive and does not describe state or local tax consequences. As a general rule, a participant will not recognize taxable income with respect to any award at the time of grant except in the case of a participant who receives a restricted stock grant and makes the timely election permitted by Section 83(b) of the Code.

Upon exercise of a nonqualified stock option, the lapse of restrictions on restricted stock (where no 83(b) election is made), the participant will recognize ordinary taxable income in an amount equal to the difference between the amount paid for the award, if any, and the fair market value of the stock or amount received on the date of exercise, lapse of restriction or payment. Subject to the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code, the Company will be entitled to a concurrent income tax deduction equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant.

A participant who is granted an incentive stock option will not recognize taxable income at the time of exercise. However, the excess of the stock’s fair market value over the exercise price could be subject to the alternative minimum tax in the year of exercise (assuming the stock received is not subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture or is transferable). If stock acquired upon exercise of an incentive stock option is held for a minimum of two years from the date of grant and one year from the date of exercise, the gain or loss (in an amount equal to the difference between the sales price and the exercise price) upon disposition of the stock will be treated as a long-term capital gain or loss, and the Company will not be entitled to any income tax deduction. If the holding period requirements are not met, the incentive stock option will not meet the requirements of the Code and the tax consequences described for nonqualified stock options will apply.

If certain awards fail to comply with Section 409A, a participant must include in ordinary income all deferred compensation conferred by the award, pay interest from the date of the deferral and pay an additional 20% tax. The award agreement for any award that is subject to Section 409A may include provisions necessary for compliance as determined by our board of directors. The Company intends (but cannot and does not guarantee) that awards granted under the 2018 Plan will comply with the requirements of Section 409A or an exception thereto and intends to administer and interpret the 2018 Plan in such a manner.

Tax Consequences to the Company or Its Affiliates

To the extent that an grantee recognizes ordinary income in the circumstances described above, the Company or the affiliate for which the employee performs services will, subject to the deduction limitations of Section 162(m) of the Code, be entitled to a corresponding deduction provided that, among other things, the income meets the test of reasonableness, is an ordinary and necessary business expense, is not an “excess parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code.

Effective Date of Amendment.   Our board of directors approved the proposed amendment to the Plan on January [  ], 2020. The amendment to increase the number of authorized shares under the Plan will become effective on the date it is approved by stockholders. If the Plan, as proposed to be amended, is not approved by stockholders, the Plan will continue in effect until it expires, and awards may be granted thereunder, in accordance with its terms.

New Plan Benefits

Since the grant of awards under the Plan is within the discretion of our board of directors, we cannot determine the dollar value or number of shares of common stock that will in the future be received by or allocated to any participant in the Plan. In lieu of providing information regarding benefits that will be

45

received under the Plan, the following table provides information concerning the stock option awards that were received by the following persons and groups during fiscal year 2019: each named executive officer; all current executive officers, as a group; all current directors who are not executive officers, as a group; and all employees who are not executive officers, as a group. No person received any award of restricted stock during fiscal year 2019.

Our Board of Directors believes that our future success depends, in large part, upon our ability to maintain a competitive position in attracting, retaining and motivating key personnel. Accordingly, our Board believes that the approval of the amendment to the Plan, as amended, is in the best interests of iBio and our stockholders and recommends a vote “FOR” this proposal.

OTHER INFORMATION

Other Matters

Our Board of Directors knows of no other matters that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the meeting, it is the intention of the persons named in the accompanying proxy to vote, or otherwise act, on such matters in accordance with their judgment.

Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

Section 16(a) of the 1934 Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership of our common stock and other equity securities. Officers, directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

To our knowledge, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners were complied with, except the following reports were not filed on a timely basis: (1) Statements of Changes in Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 reporting grants of stock options made on April 1, 2019 to purchase 50,000 shares of our common stock made to each of Robert B. Kay, Glenn Chang, General James T. Hill, John D. McKey, Jr., Philip K Russell, M.D., Arthur Y. Elliott, Ph.D., Seymour Flug and Thomas F. Isett 3rd, which were filed on May 31, 2019, and (2) Statements of Changes in Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 filed on May 13, 2019 by each of Robert B. Kay, Glenn Chang, General James T. Hill, John D. McKey, Jr., Philip K Russell, M.D., Seymour Flug, Robert L. Erwin, James P. Mullaney and Terence Ryan, Ph.D., and a Statement of Changes in Beneficial Ownership on Form 4 filed on May 31, 2019 by Arthur Y. Elliott, Ph.D., reporting grants of stock options under the Company’s 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan made to each such person on February 20, 2019 in exchange for options granted to such parties pursuant to the Company’s 2008 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, pursuant to a one time stock option exchange program approved by the Company’s stockholders on December 18, 2018.

Stockholder Proposals for the 2020 Annual Meeting

Rules of the SEC require that we receive any proposal by our stockholders for inclusion in our proxy materials for the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders no later than 120 days prior to the anniversary of this year’s proxy materials were released to stockholders, which date shall be [                 ]. Proposals must be submitted in writing to us c/o Secretary, iBio, Inc., 600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601, New York, NY 10022, and you must comply with other requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the 1934 Exchange Act. However, if the 2020 annual meeting date changes by more than 30 days from the date of the 2019 annual meeting date, then the proposal must be submitted a reasonable time before we begin to print and send our proxy materials for the 2020 annual meeting.

In addition, our First Amended and Restated Bylaws have an advance notice procedure for stockholders to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders. The advance notice procedure requires that a stockholder interested in presenting a proposal for action at the 2020 annual meeting of stockholders must deliver a written notice of the proposal, together with specific information relating to such stockholder’s proposal, nominee, stock ownership and identity, to our corporate secretary no later than the close of business on November 12, 2020, and no earlier than the close of business on October 13, 2020. You are advised to review our bylaws, which contain additional requirements about advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. You must comply with these bylaws requirements in connection with a stockholder proposal or director nomination outside the Rule 14a-8 context.

Householding of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders

47

sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are our stockholders will be “householding” our proxy materials. A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent.

If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, please notify your broker, direct your written request to iBio, Inc., Attention: Secretary, 600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601, New York, NY 10022 or contact our Corporate Secretary at (302) 355-0650. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the proxy statement at their address and would like to request “householding” of their communications should contact their broker.

January 9, 2020

A copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, as amended, for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019 is available without charge upon written request to: Corporate Secretary, iBio, Inc., 600 Madison Avenue, Suite 1601, New York, NY 10022. Copies may also be obtained without charge through the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

3. This Certificate of Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation was duly approved by the Corporation’s Board of Directors and duly adopted by the stockholders of the Corporation at a meeting in accordance with the applicable provisions of Section 242 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “GCL”).

4. Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation is hereby amended by adding the following paragraph to succeed the second paragraph of such article:

“Upon the filing and effectiveness (the “Effective Time”), pursuant to the GCL, of this Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation, as amended, each [•] ([•]) shares of Common Stock either issued and outstanding or held by the Corporation in its treasury immediately prior to the Effective Time shall, automatically and without any action on the part of the respective holders thereof, be combined and converted into one (1) share of Common Stock (the “Reverse Stock Split”). No fractional shares shall be issued in connection with the Reverse Stock Split. All shares of Common Stock (including fractions thereof) held by a holder immediately prior to the Reverse Stock Split shall be aggregated for purposes of determining whether the Reverse Stock Split would result in the issuance of a fractional share. Any fractional share resulting from such aggregation of Common Stock upon the Reverse Stock Split shall be converted into the right to receive a cash payment in an amount equal to the fraction to which such holder would otherwise be entitled multiplied by the closing price of a share of Common Stock on the NYSE American exchange immediately prior to the Effective Time. The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of Common Stock outstanding as a result of the Reverse Stock Split unless and until the certificates evidencing the shares held by a holder prior to the Reverse Stock Split are either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent, or the holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such certificates have been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such certificates. Each stock certificate that, immediately prior to the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, represented shares of old Common Stock shall, from and after the effective time of the Reverse Stock Split, automatically and without the necessity of presenting the same for exchange, represent that number of whole shares of new Common Stock into which the shares of old Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified (as well as the right to receive cash in lieu of any fractional shares of new Common Stock as set forth above), provided, however, that each holder of record of a certificate that represented shares of old Common Stock shall receive, upon surrender of such certificate, a new

certificate representing the number of whole shares of new Common Stock into which the shares of old Common Stock represented by such certificate shall have been reclassified, as well as any cash in lieu of fractional shares of new Common Stock to which such holder may be entitled as set forth above.”

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Corporation has caused this Certificate of Amendment of the Certificate of Incorporation to be executed this [•] day of  [•] 2020.

IBIO, INC.
2018 OMNIBUS EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

As Amended and Restated as of  [DATE] 2020

iBio, Inc. (the “Company”), sets forth herein the terms of its 2018 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) as follows:

1.   PURPOSE

The Plan is intended to enhance the Company’s and its Affiliates’ (as defined herein) ability to attract and retain highly qualified officers, directors, key employees, and other persons, and to motivate such officers, directors, key employees, and other persons to serve the Company and its Affiliates and to expend maximum effort to improve the business results and earnings of the Company, by providing to such officers, directors, key employees and other persons an opportunity to acquire or increase a direct proprietary interest in the operations and future success of the Company. To this end, the Plan provides for the grant of stock options and restricted stock in accordance with the terms hereof. Stock options granted under the Plan may be nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options, as provided herein.

It is intended that all awarded restricted stock provided for under this Plan be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) because it is believed that the Plan does not provide for a deferral of compensation and accordingly that the Plan does not constitute a nonqualified deferred compensation plan within the meaning of Section 409A. The provisions of this Plan shall be interpreted in a manner consistent with this intention, and the provisions of this Plan may be amended, adjusted, assumed or substituted for, converted or otherwise modified if the Plan Administrator determines, in its sole unfettered discretion, that such amendment, adjustment, assumption or substitution, conversion or modification would be required so that the terms and conditions of the restricted stock awarded hereunder do not violate the requirements of Section 409A.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not make any representation to the Participant that the stock options and restricted stock awarded pursuant to this Plan are exempt from, or satisfy, the requirements of Section 409A, and the Company shall have no liability or other obligation to indemnify or hold harmless the Participant or any beneficiary for any tax, additional tax, interest or penalties that the Participant or any beneficiary may incur in the event that any provision of this Plan, or any amendment or modification thereof, or any other action taken with respect thereto, the Plan Administrator determines should not result in a violation of Section 409A, is deemed to violate any of the requirements of Section 409A.

No member of the Board or of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan or any Grant or Award Agreement.

4.   STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN

Subject to adjustment under Section 15, the number of shares of Stock available for issuance under the Plan as Options or as Restricted Stock shall be six million five hundred thousand (6,500,000) shares (the “Share Reserve”). All shares in the Share Reserve are eligible to be issued pursuant to Incentive Stock Options. Stock issued or to be issued under the Plan shall be authorized but unissued shares or, to the extent permitted by applicable law, issued shares that have been reacquired by the Company. If any shares covered by a Grant are not purchased or are forfeited, or if a Grant otherwise terminates without delivery of any Stock subject thereto, then the number of shares of Stock counted against the aggregate number of shares available under the Plan with respect to such Grant shall, to the extent of any such forfeiture or termination, again be available for making Grants under the Plan. If any shares covered by a Grant are tendered or withheld to pay the exercise price of an Option, or if any shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy a tax withholding obligation arising in connection with an Award, then the shares so tendered or withheld shall be added to the shares available for grant under the Plan.

5.   GRANT ELIGIBILITY

5.1   Employees and Other Service Providers.

Grants (including Grants of Incentive Stock Options, subject to Section 5.3) may be made under the Plan to any employee, officer or director of, or other Service Provider providing, or who has provided, services to, the Company or any Affiliate. To the extent required by applicable state law, Grants within certain states may be limited to employees and officers or employees, officers and directors. In addition, prospective employees, consultants and non-employee directors are eligible to participate in the 2018 Plan but no portion of any such award will vest, become exercisable, be settled or become effective prior to the date on which such individual begins providing services to the Company or an Affiliate.

5.2   Successive Grants.

An eligible person may receive more than one Grant, subject to such restrictions as are provided herein.

5.3   Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.

An Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option only (i) if the Grantee of such Option is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; (ii) to the extent specifically provided in the related Award Agreement; and (iii) to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the shares of Stock with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options held by such Grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Grantee’s employer and its Affiliates) does not exceed $100,000. This limitation shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

6.   AWARD AGREEMENT

Each Grant pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, in such form or forms as the Board shall from time to time determine, which specifies the number of shares subject to the Grant and provides for adjustment in accordance with Section 15. Award Agreements granted from time to time or at the same time need not contain similar provisions but shall be consistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement evidencing a Grant of Options shall specify whether such Options are intended to be Nonqualified Stock Options or Incentive Stock Options, and in the absence of such specification such options shall be deemed Nonqualified Stock Options.

B-8

7.   TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS

7.1   Option Price.

The Option Price of each Option shall be fixed by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Option Price shall be the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that in the event that a Grantee is a Ten-Percent Stockholder, the Option Price of an Incentive Stock Option granted to such Grantee shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date. To the extent required by applicable law, in the case of a Nonqualified Stock Option, the Option Price shall be not less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that in the event that a Grantee is a Ten-Percent Stockholder, the Option Price shall be not less than 110% of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date. In no case shall the Option Price of any Option be less than the par value of a share of Stock.

7.2   Vesting and Option Period.

Subject to Sections 7.3 and 14.3 hereof, each Option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable at such times and under such conditions as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement. For purposes of this Section 7.2, fractional numbers of shares of Stock subject to an Option shall be rounded down to the next nearest whole number. To the extent required by applicable law, each Option shall become exercisable at least at the rate of twenty percent (20%) per year for each of the first five (5) years from the Grant Date based on continued Service. Subject to the preceding sentence, the Board may provide, for example, in the Award Agreement for (i) accelerated exercisability of the Option in the event the Grantee’s Service terminates on account of death, Disability or another event, (ii) expiration of the Option prior to its term in the event of the termination of the Grantee’s Service, (iii) immediate forfeiture of the Option in the event the Grantee’s Service is terminated for Cause or (iv) unvested Options to be exercised subject to the Company’s right of repurchase with respect to unvested shares of Stock.

7.3   Term.

Each Option granted under the Plan shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten (10) years from the date such Option is granted, or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement relating to such Option; provided, however, that in the event that the Grantee is a Ten-Percent Stockholder, an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from its Grant Date.

7.4   Exercise of Options on Termination of Service.

Each Award Agreement shall set forth the extent to which the Grantee shall have the right to exercise the Option following termination of the Grantee’s Service. Such provisions shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Board, need not be uniform among all Options issued pursuant to the Plan, and may reflect distinctions based on the reasons for termination of employment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent required by applicable law, each Option shall provide that the Grantee shall have the right to exercise the vested portion of any Option held at termination for a period of three (3) months next succeeding such termination of service with the Company for any reason (other than for Cause), and that the Grantee shall have the right to exercise the vested portion of any option Option for a period of twelve (12) months next succeeding the termination of service with the Company due to death or Disability.

7.5   Limitations on Exercise of Option.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, prior to the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company, or after ten (10) years following the date upon which the Option is granted, or after the occurrence of an event referred to in Section 14 hereof which results in termination of the Option.

B-9

7.6   Exercise Procedure.

An Option that is exercisable may be exercised by the Grantee’s delivery to the Company of written notice of exercise on any business day, at the Company’s principal office, on the form specified by the Company. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price of the shares for which the Option is being exercised. The Board may approve an alternative exercise procedure including by broker-assisted exercise. The minimum number of shares of Stock with respect to which an Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time shall be the lesser of  (i) 100 shares or such lesser number set forth in the applicable Award Agreement and (ii) the maximum number of shares available for purchase under the Option at the time of exercise. The Option Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 10.

7.7   Right of Holders of Options.

Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, an individual holding or exercising an Option shall have none of the rights of a shareholder (for example, the right to cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the subject shares of Stock or to direct the voting of shares of Stock) until the shares of Stock covered thereby are fully paid and issued to such individual.

7.8   Delivery of Stock Certificates.

Promptly after the exercise of an Option by a Grantee and the payment in full of the Option Price, such Grantee shall be entitled to the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates evidencing such Grantee’s ownership of the shares of Stock purchased upon such exercise of the Option.

8.   TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS

8.1   Transferability of Options.

Except as provided in Section 8.2, during the lifetime of a Grantee, only the Grantee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise an Option. Except as provided in Section 8.2, no Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

8.2   Family Transfers.

If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Option that is not an Incentive Stock Option to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 8.2, a “not for value” transfer is a transfer which is (i) a gift, (ii) a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights; or (iii) unless applicable law does not permit such transfers, a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in that entity. Following a transfer under this Section 8.2, any such Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to the transfer, and shares of Stock acquired pursuant to the Option shall be subject to the same restrictions on transfer of shares as would have applied to the Grantee. Subsequent transfers of transferred Options are prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 8.2 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. The events of termination of Service under an Option shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Grantee, following which the Option shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent, and for the periods specified in the Option, and the shares may be subject to repurchase by the Company or its assignee.

9.   RESTRICTED STOCK/ RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS/OTHER AWARDS

9.1   Grant of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, Other Awards.

The Board may from time to time grant Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Other Awards to persons eligible to receive Grants under Section 5 hereof, subject to such restrictions, conditions and other terms as the Board may determine.

B-10

9.2   Restricted Stock.

At the time a Grant of Restricted Stock is made, the Board shall establish a restriction period applicable to such Restricted Stock. Each Grant of Restricted Stock may be subject to a different restriction period. The Board may, in its sole discretion, at the time a Grant of Restricted Stock is made, prescribe conditions that must be satisfied prior to the expiration of the restriction period, including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives or continued Service, in order that all or any portion of the Restricted Stock shall vest. To the extent required by applicable law, the vesting restrictions applicable to a Grant of Restricted Stock shall lapse no less rapidly than the rate of twenty percent (20%) per year for each of the first five (5) years from the Grant Date, based on continued Service.

The Board also may, in its sole discretion, shorten or terminate the restriction period or waive any of the conditions applicable to all or a portion of the Restricted Stock. The Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the restriction period or prior to the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Board with respect to such Restricted Stock.

b.   Restricted Stock Certificates.

The Company shall issue, in the name of each Grantee to whom Restricted Stock has been granted, stock certificates representing the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Grant Date. The Board may provide in an Award Agreement that either (i) the Secretary of the Company shall hold such certificates for the Grantee’s benefit until such time as the Restricted Stock is forfeited to the Company, or the restrictions lapse, or (ii) such certificates shall be delivered to the Grantee, provided, however, that such certificates shall bear a legend or legends that complies with the applicable securities laws and regulations and makes appropriate reference to the restrictions imposed under the Plan and the Award Agreement.

c.   Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock.

Unless the Board otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock shall have the right to vote such Stock and the right to receive any dividends declared or paid with respect to such Stock. The Board may provide that any dividends paid on Restricted Stock must be reinvested in shares of Stock, which may or may not be subject to the same vesting conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock. All distributions, if any, received by a Grantee with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, or other similar transaction shall be subject to the restrictions applicable to the original Grant.

d.   Termination of Service.

Unless otherwise provided by the Board in the applicable Award Agreement, upon the termination of a Grantee’s Service with the Company or an Affiliate, any shares of Restricted Stock held by such Grantee that have not vested, or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited. Upon forfeiture of Restricted Stock, the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Grant, including but not limited to any right to vote Restricted Stock or any right to receive dividends with respect to shares of Restricted Stock.

e.   Purchase and Delivery of Stock.

The Grantee shall be required to purchase the Restricted Stock from the Company at a Purchase Price equal to the greater of  (i) the aggregate par value of the shares of Stock represented by such Restricted Stock or (ii) the Purchase Price, if any, specified in the Award Agreement relating to such Restricted Stock. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 10 or, in the discretion of the Board, in consideration for past Services rendered to the Company or an Affiliate. To the extent required by applicable law, the Purchase Price of a share of Restricted Stock shall be not less than eight-five (85%) percent of the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that in the event that the Grantee is a Ten-Percent Stockholder, the Purchase Price shall be not less than one hundred (100%) percent of the Fair Market Value on the Grant date of a share of Stock.

B-11

Upon the expiration or termination of the restriction period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Board, having properly paid the Purchase Price, the restrictions applicable to shares of Restricted Stock shall lapse, and, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, a stock certificate for such shares shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions, to the Grantee or the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.

9.3 Restricted Stock Units.

(i)   Award Terms. When Restricted Stock Units are granted under the Plan, the Company shall advise the recipient in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to the Award, including the number of Restricted Stock Units that such person shall be entitled to receive. The offer to receive Restricted Stock Units shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.

(ii)   Vesting and Settlement. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, set vesting criteria for the Restricted Stock Units that must be met in order to be eligible to receive a payout pursuant to the Award (note that the Administrator may specify additional conditions which must also be met in order to receive a payout pursuant to the Award). Any such vesting criteria may be based upon the achievement of Company-wide, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, continued employment), or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any applicable vesting criteria.

(iii)   Form and Timing of Settlement. Settlement of earned Restricted Stock Units will be made upon the date(s) determined by the Administrator and may be subject to additional conditions, if any, each as set forth in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may settle earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination of both.

(iv)   Other Provisions. The Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. In addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock Unit Agreements need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(v)   Rights as a Holder of Capital Stock. Until the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) (if any), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a holder of capital stock shall exist with respect to the Restricted Stock Units. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance, except as provided in Section 14 hereof.

9.4.   Other Awards.

(a)   General. The Administrator may from time to time grant cash-based, equity-based or equity-related awards not otherwise described herein in such amounts and on such terms as it shall determine, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, each such Other Award may (i) involve the transfer of actual Shares to Participants, either at the time of grant or thereafter, or payment in cash or otherwise, (ii) be subject to performance-based vesting conditions and/or multipliers and/or service-based vesting conditions, (iii) be in the form of cash, stock appreciation rights, phantom stock, performance shares, deferred share units, share-denominated performance units or other similar awards and (iv) be designed to comply with Applicable Laws of jurisdictions other than the United States; provided that each cash-based Other Award shall be denominated in cash and each equity-based or equity-related Other Award shall be denominated in, or shall have a value determined by reference to, a number of Shares, in each case that is specified (or will be determined using a formula that is specified) at the time of the grant of such Other Award.

(b)   Award Terms. When Other Awards are granted under the Plan, the Company shall advise the recipient in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions applicable to the Other Award. The offer to receive Other Awards shall be accepted by execution of an Other Award Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.

B-12

(c)   Vesting, Settlement and Payment. The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, set vesting criteria for the Other Award that must be met in order to be eligible to receive a payout pursuant to the Award (note that the Administrator may specify additional conditions which must also be met in order to receive a payout pursuant to the Award). Any such vesting criteria may be based upon the achievement of Company-wide, business unit, or individual goals (including, but not limited to, Continuous Service Status), or any other basis determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the grant of the Other Award, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any applicable vesting criteria.

(d)   Form and Timing of Settlement or Payment. Settlement or payment of earned Other Awards will be made upon the date(s) determined by the Administrator and may be subject to additional conditions, if any, each as set forth in the Other Award Agreement. The Administrator will settle earned cash-based Other Awards solely in cash but, in its sole discretion, may settle earned equity-based or equity related Other Awards in cash, Shares, or a combination of both.

(e)   Other Provisions. The Other Award Agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. The provisions of Other Award Agreements need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

(f)   Rights as a Holder of Capital Stock. Until the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) (if any), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a holder of capital stock shall exist with respect to the equity-based or equity-related Other Awards. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date of issuance, except as provided in Section [XX] hereof.

10.   FORM OF PAYMENT

10.1   General Rule.

Payment of the Option Price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock shall be made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to the Company.

10.2   Surrender of Stock.

To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made all or in part through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shares, if acquired from the Company, shall have been held for at least six (6) months at the time of tender and which shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price or Purchase Price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise.

10.3   Cashless Exercise.

With respect to an Option only (and not with respect to Restricted Stock), to the extent the Award Agreement so provides and the shares of Stock have become publicly traded, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form acceptable to the Board) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 11.

10.4   Net Exercise of Option.

In lieu of paying the aggregate purchase price in cash pursuant to Section 10.1, the Grantee may elect a “net exercise” and exchange his or her Option for such number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying such number of shares of common stock with respect to which this Option is exercised by a fraction, the numerator of which shall be the difference between the then-current market price per share of common stock and the purchase price provided in this Option, and the denominator of which shall be the then-current market price per share of common stock. The Grantee, when exercising his or her Option shall

B-13

have the right to receive the number of shares with a fair market value equal to the difference between the exercise price and the current fair market value at the date of exercise. As a result of such exercise, the Grantee is submitting the number of Options exercised and the Company is issuing the net difference of shares of common stock after the net exercise.

11.   WITHHOLDING TAXES

The Company or any Affiliate, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock or upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or Affiliate may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Affiliate to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations. The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or the Affiliate as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 11 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.

12.   PARACHUTE LIMITATIONS

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or of any other agreement, contract, or understanding heretofore or hereafter entered into by a Grantee with the Company or any Affiliate, except an agreement, contract, or understanding hereafter entered into that expressly modifies or excludes application of this paragraph (an “Other Agreement”), and notwithstanding any formal or informal plan or other arrangement for the direct or indirect provision of compensation to the Grantee (including groups or classes of participants or beneficiaries of which the Grantee is a member), whether or not such compensation is deferred, is in cash, or is in the form of a benefit to or for the Grantee (a “Benefit Arrangement”), if the Grantee is a “disqualified individual,” as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code, any Options or Restricted Stock held by that Grantee and any right to receive any payment or other benefit under this Plan shall not become exercisable or vested (i) to the extent that such right to exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit, taking into account all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the Grantee under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all Benefit Arrangements, would cause any payment or benefit to the Grantee under this Plan to be considered a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code as then in effect (a “Parachute Payment”) and (ii) if, as a result of receiving a Parachute Payment, the aggregate after-tax amounts received by the Grantee from the Company under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all Benefit Arrangements would be less than the maximum after-tax amount that could be received by the Grantee without causing any such payment or benefit to be considered a Parachute Payment. In the event that the receipt of any such right to exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit under this Plan, in conjunction with all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the Grantee under any Other Agreement or any Benefit Arrangement would cause the Grantee to be considered to have received a Parachute Payment under this Plan that would have the effect of decreasing the after-tax amount received by the Grantee as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then the Grantee shall have the right, in the Grantee’s sole discretion, to designate those rights, payments, or benefits under this Plan, any Other Agreements, and any Benefit Arrangements that should be reduced or eliminated so as to avoid having the payment or benefit to the Grantee under this Plan be deemed to be a Parachute Payment.

B-14

13.   REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

13.1   General.

The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Grant if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising a right emanating from such Grant, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to a Grant upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Grant unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Grant. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any right emanating from such Grant or the delivery of any shares of Restricted Stock, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Grant, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be exercisable until the shares of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.

13.2   Rule 16b-3.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Grants pursuant to the Plan and the exercise of Options granted hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Board does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board, and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Board may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement.

13.3   Financial Reports.

To the extent required by applicable law, not less often than annually the Company shall furnish to Grantees summary financial information including a balance sheet regarding the Company’s financial conditions and results of operation, unless such Grantees have duties with the Company that assure them access to equivalent information. Such financial statements need not be audited.

14.   EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

14.1   Changes in Stock.

Subject to the exception set forth in the last sentence of Section 14.4, if the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number of shares of common stock of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, the number of shares for which Grants of Options and Restricted Stock may be made under the Plan shall be adjusted proportionately by the

B-15

Company. In addition, the number of shares for which Grants are outstanding shall be adjusted proportionately so that the proportionate interest of the Grantee in common stock immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as the Grantee’s interest in Stock immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options shall not change the aggregate Option Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of an Option outstanding but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the Option Price per share. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as an increase in shares effected without receipt of consideration.

14.2   Reorganization in Which the Company Is the Surviving Entity and in Which No Change of Control Occurs.

Subject to the exception set forth in the last sentence of Section 14.4, if the Company shall be the surviving entity in any reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities and in which no Change of Control occurs, any Grant theretofore made pursuant to the Plan shall pertain to and apply to the common stock shares to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Grant would have been entitled immediately following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, and in the case of Options, with a corresponding proportionate adjustment of the Option Price per share so that the aggregate Option Price thereafter shall be the same as the aggregate Option Price of the shares remaining subject to the Option immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, or consolidation. Subject to any contrary language in an Award Agreement evidencing a Grant of Restricted Stock, any restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock shall apply as well to any replacement shares received by the Grantee as a result of the reorganization, merger or consolidation.

14.3   Reorganization, Sale of Assets or Sale of Stock Which Involves a Change of Control.

Subject to the exceptions set forth in the last sentence of this Section 14.3 and the last sentence of Section 14.4, (i) upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, all outstanding shares of Restricted Stock shall be deemed to have vested, and all restrictions and conditions applicable to such shares of Restricted Stock shall be deemed to have lapsed, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, and (ii) either of the following two actions shall be taken: (A) fifteen (15) days prior to the scheduled consummation of a Change of Control, all Options outstanding hereunder shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable for a period of fifteen (15) days, or (B) the Board may elect, in its sole discretion, to cancel any outstanding Grants and pay or deliver, or cause to be paid or delivered, to the holder thereof an amount in cash or securities having a value (as determined by the Board acting in good faith), in the case of Restricted Stock, equal to the formula or fixed price per share paid to holders of shares of Stock and, in the case of Options, equal to the product of the number of shares of Stock subject to the Option (the “Option Shares”) multiplied by the amount, if any, by which (I) the formula or fixed price per share paid to holders of shares of Stock pursuant to such transaction exceeds (II) the Option Price applicable to such Option Shares. With respect to the Company’s establishment of an exercise window, (i) any exercise of an Option during such 15-day period shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the event and shall be effective only immediately before the consummation of the event, and (ii) upon consummation of any Change of Control, the Plan and all outstanding but unexercised Options shall terminate. The Board shall send written notice of an event that will result in such a termination to all individuals who hold Options not later than the time at which the Company gives notice thereof to its shareholders. This Section 14.3 shall not apply to any Change of Control to the extent that provision is made in writing in connection with such Change of Control for the assumption or continuation of the Options and Restricted Stock theretofore granted, or for the substitution for such Options and Restricted Stock of new options and restricted stock covering the stock of a successor entity, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares and exercise prices, in which event the Plan and Options and Restricted Stock theretofore granted shall continue in the manner and under the terms so provided.

14.4   Adjustments.

Adjustments under this Section 14.4 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions

B-16

resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share. The Board may provide in the Award Agreements at the time of Grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, for different provisions to apply to a Grant in place of those described in Sections 14.1, 14.2 and 14.3.

14.5   No Limitations on Company.

The making of Grants pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

15.   DURATION AND AMENDMENTS

15.1   Term of the Plan.

The Effective Date of this Plan is the date of its adoption by the Board, subject to the approval of the Plan by the Company’s stockholders. In the event that the stockholders fail to approve the Plan within twelve (12) months after its adoption by the Board, any Grants already made shall be null and void, and no additional grants shall be made after such date. The Plan shall terminate automatically ten (10) years after its adoption by the Board and may be terminated on any earlier date as next provided.

15.2   Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan as to any shares of Stock as to which Grants have not been made. An amendment to the Plan shall be contingent on approval of the Company’s stockholders only to the extent required by applicable law, regulations or rules. No Grants shall be made after the termination of the Plan. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Grantee, alter or impair rights or obligations under any Grant theretofore awarded under the Plan.

16.   GENERAL PROVISIONS

16.1   Disclaimer of Rights.

No provision in the Plan or in any Grant or Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate, or to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company or any Affiliate. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any amounts to a third party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any participant or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan.

16.2   Nonexclusivity of the Plan.

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or particular individuals) as the Board in its discretion determines desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options otherwise than under the Plan.

16.3   Captions.

The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or such Award Agreement.

B-17

16.4   Other Award Agreement Provisions.

Each Grant awarded under the Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion.
