Item 5.02

On April 28, 2022, Martin Latterich, Ph.D., informed Histogen Inc. (the “Company”) that he would be resigning from his position as Senior Vice President of Technical Operations of the Company. Dr. Latterich’s decision to step down as an officer of the Company was to pursue another opportunity and not the result of any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies, or practices.

 

In connection with Dr. Latterich’s resignation, the Company and Dr. Latterich, by and through his affiliated consulting company, agreed to enter into a consulting agreement pursuant to which Dr. Latterich would continue to provide up to forty (40) hours of consulting service per month for a monthly cash retainer of $12,000 and continued vesting of his previously granted options to purchase common stock that remain unvested as of May 6 through the term of the consulting agreement, which is set to expire as of December 31, 2022.  

 

The foregoing description and the information contained in Item 5.02 with respect to Dr. Latterich’s consulting agreement is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such documents, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
