Scholar Rock (NASDAQ: SRRK; the “Company”), a late-stage
biopharmaceutical company focused on advancing innovative
treatments for spinal muscular atrophy, cardiometabolic disorders,
and other serious diseases where protein growth factors play a
fundamental role, today announced that the company granted
inducement equity awards covering an aggregate of 85,200 shares of
its common stock to five newly hired employees, consisting of
inducement stock options to purchase an aggregate of 48,685 shares
of common stock and inducement restricted stock units, covering an
aggregate of 36,515 shares of its common stock.
The awards are subject to all terms and conditions and other
provisions set forth in the Company’s 2022 Inducement Equity Plan
(the “Plan”) and the award agreements thereunder.
The Plan, which was initially adopted by the Company’s board of
directors on June 16, 2022, and amended on September 4, 2022,
February 3, 2023 and January 25, 2024, is used exclusively for the

non-employment, as an inducement material to such individuals
entering into employment with Scholar Rock, pursuant to Nasdaq
Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).
The inducement stock options have an exercise price of $9.48,
which is equal to the closing price of Scholar Rock’s common stock
on August 12, 2024. The inducement stock options will vest with
respect to 25% of the shares of common stock underlying the award
on the first anniversary of each employee’s start date, and the
remaining 75% of the shares of common stock underlying the
inducement stock options will vest in 12 equal quarterly
installments thereafter. Vesting for the inducement restricted
stock units will be in four equal annual installments. All vesting
related to inducement awards is subject to the employees’
continuing service at the Company through the applicable vesting
date.
About Scholar Rock
Scholar Rock is a biopharmaceutical company that discovers,

serious diseases that have high unmet need. As a global leader in
the biology of the transforming growth factor beta (TGFβ)

factors are fundamental. Over the past decade, Scholar Rock has
