Incentive-plan design — the Compensation Discussion & Analysis

The Corporation's PEO and Non-PEO NEOs receive time-based RSU awards and their total compensation is not tied to any specific company performance measures. The Compensation Committee determines on an annual basis the relevant objectives and goals that drive each of the Named Executive Officer’s compensation, considering the advancement of the Corporation’s product candidates, financings, partnerships, and other business development.

Peer group, and who names Fennec Pharmaceuticals as a peer

Companies that benchmark against FENC

1 company names FENC as a compensation peer

Each company listed discloses FENC in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named FENC in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.

Chief executive pay against the peer group

Most recent fiscal-year chief executive compensation at each disclosed peer, taken from that company’s own proxy statement.

Each peer’s compensation is from its most recently filed proxy; fiscal years differ by company. Each peer’s figures come from its own filings; the subject company is highlighted. Peers whose chief executive compensation is outside our coverage universe are stated as such, never left blank.
