Chief Executive Officer Transition
On November 12, 2024, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Zentalis Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Julie Eastland as Chief Executive Officer, President and a Class I director of the Company with an initial term scheduled to expire at the Company’s 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, in each case effective November 13, 2024 (the “Transition Date”). Also on November 12, 2024, Kimberly Blackwell, M.D., resigned as Chief Executive Officer, a member of the Board and from all other positions held with the Company and its affiliates, effective on the Transition Date. Dr. Blackwell will serve as a strategic advisor to the Board following the Transition Date.
Julie Eastland, age 60, previously served as the Chief Executive Officer and President of Harpoon Therapeutics, a publicly traded biotechnology company (“Harpoon”), from November 2021, and a member of its Board of Directors from October 2018, in each case until Harpoon’s acquisition by Merck Sharpe & Dohme in March 2024. From October 2020 to November 2021, Ms. Eastland served as Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer of ReCode Therapeutics (“ReCode”), a privately held genetics medicine company. Prior to ReCode, from October 2018 to February 2020, she served as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Business Officer of Rainier Therapeutics (“Rainier”), a privately held biopharmaceutical company focused on bladder cancer. Before Rainier, she was Chief Financial Officer and Chief Business Officer of Cascadian Therapeutics (“Cascadian”), a publicly traded oncology company acquired by Seattle Genetics in 2018. Prior to Cascadian, Ms. Eastland served as Chief Financial Officer and Vice President of Finance and Operations of VLST Corporation, a privately held biotechnology company, and held various financial and strategic management positions at publicly traded biotechnology companies including Dendreon and Amgen. Ms. Eastland currently serves as a member of the Boards of Directors of Dynavax Technologies Corporation (Nasdaq: DVAX), Lantheus Holdings (Nasdaq: LNTH), and Seismic Therapeutic. Ms. Eastland received an M.B.A. from Edinburgh University Management School and a B.S. in finance from Colorado State University. There is no arrangement or understanding between Ms. Eastland and any other person, pursuant to which Ms. Eastland was selected as Chief Executive Officer and President. There are no family relationships between Ms. Eastland and any of the Company’s current or former directors or executive officers. Ms. Eastland is not a party to any transaction that would require disclosure under Regulation S-K 404(a).
In connection with her appointment as Chief Executive Officer and President, Ms. Eastland entered into an employment agreement with the Company’s subsidiary, Zeno Management, Inc., setting forth the terms of her employment as the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer. Ms. Eastland’s initial annual base salary will be $700,000 and she will be eligible for an annual target bonus equal to 60% of her annual base salary. Ms. Eastland will be eligible for a prorated annual bonus for 2024. In addition, Ms. Eastland will receive a $250,000 sign-on bonus, which sign-on bonus will be subject to repayment by her in the event she is terminated for cause or resigns without good reason (each as defined in her employment agreement) prior to the first anniversary of her commencement of employment.
Pursuant to her employment agreement, if we terminate Ms. Eastland’s employment other than for cause or she terminates her employment for good reason, she is entitled to the following payments and benefits, subject to her timely execution and non-revocation of a general release of claims in favor of the Company and her continued compliance with the restrictive covenants set forth in her employment agreement: (i) her fully-earned but unpaid base salary and accrued and unused paid time off through the date of termination at the rate then in effect, plus all other amounts under any compensation plan or practice to which she is entitled; (ii) a payment equal to 18 months of her then-current base salary, payable in a lump sum 60 days following the termination date; (iii) a payment equal to her target annual bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs, payable in a lump sum 60 days following the termination date; (iv) a payment equal to her target annual bonus for the year in which the termination date occurs, prorated for the portion of the year that has elapsed prior to her termination date, payable in a lump sum 60 days following the termination date; (v) a payment equal to her earned but unpaid annual bonus for any fiscal year that has ended prior to the termination date, based on actual performance under the Company’s annual bonus plan, payable when annual bonuses are paid to Company employees generally but no later than March 15 of the year in
which the termination date occurs; (vi) payment of the COBRA premiums for her and her eligible dependents for 18 months following her termination date; (vii) accelerated vesting of such portion of her time-based stock awards as would have otherwise vested over the 12 months following her date of termination (and any performance stock awards will be treated as provided in the applicable award agreement); and (viii) an extension of the post-termination exercise period of her initial option award granted to her in connection with her commencement of employment for a period of two years following her termination. In the event such termination occurs within 90 days prior to or 24 months following a change in control of the Company, Ms. Eastland will be entitled to a lump-sum payment equal to 150% of her full target bonus for the year in which the termination occurs in lieu of the amount referenced in clause (iii) above. In the event of such termination at any time within 90 days prior to or any time following a change in control, all of Ms. Eastland’s time-based stock awards will immediately vest in full (and any performance stock awards will be treated as provided in the applicable award agreement). In addition, in the event a change in control occurs and an excise tax is imposed by reason of the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code as a result of any compensatory payments made to Ms. Eastland in connection with such change in control, Ms. Eastland will be entitled to an additional payment in an amount that will offset, on an after tax basis, the effect of any excise tax imposed upon her.
In the event we terminate Ms. Eastland’s employment for cause, she terminates her employment without good reason, or upon her death or permanent disability, she is entitled to receive only her fully-earned but unpaid base salary and accrued and unused paid time off through the date of termination at the rate then in effect, plus all other amounts under any compensation plan or practice to which she is entitled.
Also in connection with her commencement of employment, the Company will grant to Ms. Eastland stock options to purchase 3,028,800 shares of the Company’s common stock. The stock options will vest in substantially equal installments over a four year vesting schedule following the Transition Date, subject to Ms. Eastland’s continued employment or service through the applicable vesting date. The stock options will be granted under the Company’s 2022 Employment Inducement Incentive Award Plan (the “2022 Inducement Plan”), and the stock options will have an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market on the date of grant.
In connection with Dr. Blackwell’s resignation, she entered into a release agreement with the Company wherein the parties agreed to provide Dr. Blackwell with severance benefits, including 18 months’ base salary, 1.25x her target bonus for 2024 and 18 months continued health coverage at Company expense.
Dr. Blackwell and the Company also have entered into a consulting agreement (the “Blackwell Consulting Agreement”), pursuant to which Dr. Blackwell will serve as a strategic advisor to the Board following the Transition Date through November 15, 2025. Dr. Blackwell will be paid an hourly retainer fee for her services and will continue to vest in her continuing equity awards during the term of the Blackwell Consulting Agreement, and upon the expiration of the term of the Blackwell Consulting Agreement, Dr. Blackwell’s remaining continuing equity awards will vest in full.
Director Appointment
On November 12, 2024, the Board appointed Scott Myers as a Class II director and Chairperson of the Board, effective on the Transition Date. Mr. Myers’ initial term is scheduled to expire at the Company's 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, subject to the election and qualification of his successor and his earlier death, resignation or removal.
Mr. Myers is entitled to receive compensation for his service as a director in accordance with the Company's Non-Employee Director Compensation Program applicable to all non-employee directors (the “Director Compensation Program”), which provides for an annual retainer of $45,000 for his Board service and an additional annual retainer of $45,000 for his service as Chairperson of the Board.
In accordance with the Director Compensation Program, as a new non-employee director, Mr. Myers was granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) covering a number of shares of the Company's common stock on November 13,
2024, which number of shares was determined by dividing (i) $850,000, by (ii) the average closing price per share of the Company's common stock for the thirty (30) calendar days preceding the date of grant. The initial RSU grant vests over three years with one-third of the underlying shares vesting on each of the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant.
Pursuant to the Director Compensation Program, the initial and annual equity awards granted to Mr. Myers under the Director Compensation Program vest in full upon a change in control and, in each case, are subject to Mr. Myers’ continued service through the applicable vesting date.
Mr. Myers has also entered into the Company's standard indemnification agreement for directors.

Zentalis Pharmaceuticals Announces Executive Leadership Changes Supporting Planned Registrational Clinical Studies of Azenosertib
Julie Eastland appointed Chief Executive Officer, President and Director
Ingmar Bruns, M.D., appointed Chief Medical Officer
Scott Myers appointed to the Board of Directors as Chairperson
SAN DIEGO — November 13, 2024 — Zentalis® Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: ZNTL), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company discovering and developing clinically differentiated small molecule therapeutics targeting fundamental biological pathways of cancers, today announced changes to its executive leadership team to support the Company as it plans and executes registrational studies for its lead product candidate, azenosertib.
Julie Eastland has been appointed Chief Executive Officer, President and Director, succeeding Kimberly Blackwell, M.D., who will remain as a strategic advisor to the Board of Directors. Ms. Eastland is an accomplished biopharmaceutical executive with substantial leadership experience operating late-stage oncology companies. She previously served as Chief Executive Officer at Harpoon Therapeutics until the company’s acquisition by Merck in early 2024. In addition to Ms. Eastland’s appointment, Ingmar Bruns, M.D., has been appointed Chief Medical Officer. The Company also announced that Scott Myers has been appointed as Chairperson of the Zentalis Board of Directors.
"I am honored to join Zentalis during this exciting period as we execute azenosertib clinical development activities that, we believe, could support an accelerated approval,” said Julie Eastland, incoming Chief Executive Officer of Zentalis. “The azenosertib clinical results generated to date are compelling, and we believe this investigational medicine has the potential to become an important new treatment option for a significant segment of patients living with gynecological cancers. I look forward to working alongside the entire Zentalis team and Board, highly accomplished industry experts with a track record of successfully moving medicines through late-stage development and into commercialization.”
Ms. Eastland continued: “We plan to proceed with a sharp focus on the advancement of azenosertib, taking necessary actions to ensure the Company has the resources to successfully proceed forward. Our priorities are clear – we will work to rapidly initiate and complete the studies needed to obtain regulatory authority approval to get azenosertib to patients, and we will operate in a capital efficient manner in order to maximize shareholder value. In January 2025, we plan to host an investor event, where we will share updated azenosertib clinical data and a regulatory update, including plans for registration-intent studies.”
Kimberly Blackwell, M.D., added: “I am proud of our accomplishments advancing the development of azenosertib. We have administered azenosertib to approximately 800 patients with a variety of serious cancers in the clinic, as both a monotherapy and in combination with other modalities, and we’ve generated a substantial body of efficacy and safety data that inform further development. I believe that these data, in conjunction with the results of the pending studies, will ultimately support the approval of azenosertib as an entirely novel treatment option for gynecological cancers. I look forward to continuing to contribute and advise on the development of azenosertib.”
“On behalf of the Board, we would like to thank Dr. Blackwell for her meaningful contributions to Zentalis and her efforts advancing the azenosertib clinical program,” said Scott Myers, incoming Chairperson of the Zentalis Board of Directors. “We would also like to express our deep appreciation to Dave Johnson for his many contributions as a highly productive chairperson and in supporting the organization during this period of growth. I look forward to working with him on the Board going forward.”
