Explanatory Note
This
Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment”) amends the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by BeyondSpring Inc. (the “Company”)
on June 4, 2026 (the “Original Form 8-K”). The Original Form 8-K reported the appointment of Mr. Min Qiu as Chief Executive
Officer of the Company. At the time of the Original Form 8-K, the Company had not yet finalized the compensatory arrangements for Mr.
Qiu entered into in connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer. This Amendment is being filed to disclose those now finalized
arrangements with Mr. Qiu. Except as set forth below, the original filing remains unchanged.
The Original Form 8-K also reported the appointment
of Ms. Na Li as Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Her compensation remains unchanged in connection with her appointment.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of
Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
In connection with the previously disclosed appointment of Mr. Qiu as Chief
Executive Officer, the Company has entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Qiu providing for the compensation described below.
Mr. Qiu will receive an annual salary of $100,000 and is eligible to participate
in any bonus program sponsored by the Company on a basis consistent with that applicable to other employees at his level, in accordance
with Company policy, with a target annual bonus of 30% of base salary.
In connection with his appointment as Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Qiu will
also be granted options to purchase 100,000 ordinary shares of the Company, which will vest in four equal annual instalments following
the grant date. The options will be granted pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the
“Plan”) and the Company’s standard form of option award agreement.
In the event of a qualifying termination of employment or a change in control,
Mr. Qiu will be entitled to severance payments and benefits identical to those previously applicable to Dr. Lan Huang, as disclosed in
the section entitled “Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control” in Item 11 of the Company’s most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Specifically, in the event of a termination without cause or resignation for good reason, subject to his execution
of a release, Mr. Qiu would receive 9 months of continued base salary payments and a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination based
on actual performance. In addition, under the terms of the Plan and option award agreement, if the options are assumed or substituted
for in the change in control and Mr. Qiu’s employment is terminated without cause within 12 months thereafter, any unvested options
will immediately vest, and if the options are not assumed or substituted for in the change of control, any unvested options will immediately
vest.
The foregoing description of Mr. Qiu’s employment agreement does not
purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the agreement, a copy of which will be filed as an exhibit
to the Company’s next periodic report.
