📄 **Cerus Corporation (CERS) 提交 8-K 申報** 日期：2026年7月6日 --- **事件摘要：前CEO轉任執行主席，薪酬條款更新** Cerus Corporation 於 2026 年 7 月 6 日提交 8-K 表格，披露高層職位變動及相關薪酬安排。前總裁兼首席執行官 William “Obi” Greenman 已於 2026 年 7 月 1 日起卸任 CEO，並轉任執行主席（Executive Chairman）。公司同日與 Greenman 簽訂修訂協議，更新其原有僱傭條款（2011 年 5 月 12 日簽訂，後經多次修訂）。 **主要條款：** - **任期**：2026 年 7 月 1 日起至 2027 年 5 月 31 日，除非雙方提前終止或書面延長。 - **時間投入**：預期平均約為全職工作時間的 60%。 - **薪酬**：年薪 50 萬美元；2026 年可獲年度現金獎勵，目標獎金為 2026 年基本年薪的 80%（即 40 萬美元），但 2027 年將不獲發任何年度現金獎勵。 - **福利**：若其離職或資格變動觸發 COBRA 延續保險，公司將支付或補償其 COBRA 保費（前提是 Greenman 繼續遵守協議並及時選擇 COBRA 續保）。 其他原有僱傭協議條款維持不變。 **對投資者的潛在影響：** - 高層過渡平穩，Greenman 繼續以執行主席身份參與公司運作，有助維持戰略連續性。 - 薪酬安排將部分獎勵與短期業績掛鉤（2026 年獎金），但 2027 年不再設現金獎金，可能反映公司對其長期角色定位的調整。 - 投資者可關注公司後續 CEO 的正式委任及接班人計劃，以及執行主席的實際貢獻對業務的影響。 🔍 是次 8-K 屬常規高層變動披露，未涉財務業績，短期股價影響料有限。建議投資者留意未來 10-Q 或 10-K 中的管理層討論及業績展望。

 Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
 
As previously disclosed, William “Obi” Greenman, former President and Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Cerus Corporation (the “Company”), ceased serving as President and Chief Executive Officer and began serving as Executive Chairman of the Board effective July 1, 2026 (the “Effective Date”). On July 6, 2026, Mr. Greenman entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”), effective as of the Effective Date, to his existing Employment Letter Agreement, dated May 12, 2011, with the Company (as amended December 5, 2012 and April 17, 2018, the “Letter Agreement”) setting forth the initial terms of his service as Executive Chairman. 
 
Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Greenman will serve as Executive Chairman (in which position it is anticipated that he will be able to perform his duties with a time commitment averaging about 60% of a full-time schedule) beginning on the Effective Date and ending on May 31, 2027, unless Mr. Greenman or the Company terminates his service earlier or Mr. Greenman and the Company extend his service by written agreement. For his service as Executive Chairman, Mr. Greenman will receive an annual base salary of $500,000 and, for 2026, will be eligible to earn an annual cash bonus, with a target annual cash bonus opportunity of 80% of his total base salary earned in 2026. Pursuant to the Amendment, Mr. Greenman will not be entitled to earn an annual cash bonus for any portion of 2027.
 
If Mr. Greenman’s Executive Chairman service constitutes a qualifying event under the Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (“COBRA”) or otherwise makes him no longer eligible to participate in the Company’s applicable group health coverage plans, the Amendment provides that, subject to Mr. Greenman’s continued compliance with the Letter Agreement, as amended by the Amendment, and his timely election to continue coverage under COBRA, the Company will pay for or reimburse his COBRA premiums.
 
Except as described herein, the terms of the Letter Agreement remain unchanged. A copy of the Amendment is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.
