Dear Stockholder:

You are cordially invited to attend the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of Bone Biologics Corporation to be held at 11:00 a.m. Eastern time on August 23, 2022 at Bone Biologics Corporation offices, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803. Stockholders may also listen via tele-conference at 520-525-8845.

We are pleased to take advantage of Securities and Exchange Commission rules that allow companies to furnish their proxy materials over the Internet. We are mailing to our stockholders a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials ("Notice and Access Card"), instead of a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K to stockholders (the "2021 Annual Report"). The Notice and Access Card contains instructions on how to access those documents and to cast your vote via the Internet. The Notice and Access Card also contains instructions on how to request a paper copy of our proxy materials and our 2021 Annual Report. This process allows us to provide our stockholders with the information they need on a more timely basis, while reducing the environmental impact and lowering the costs of printing and distributing our proxy materials.

As more fully described in the attached Notice of Annual Meeting and the accompanying Notice and Access Card, at the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will consider and vote to (i) elect five directors to our Board of Directors; (ii) approve, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation; and (iii) ratify the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A., as our independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.

It is important that your shares be represented at the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please vote as soon as possible to ensure that your shares will be represented and voted at the Annual Meeting. You may vote over the Internet, by telephone or, if you receive a paper proxy card in the mail, by mailing the completed proxy card. If you attend the Annual Meeting, then you may vote your shares in person even though you have previously voted your proxy. You may find directions at www.bonebiologics.com.

The Board of Directors recommends that you vote "FOR" the proposals presented in this proxy statement.

Sincerely,
/s/ Don Hankey

Stockholders may also listen via tele-conference at 520-525-8845.

The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to consider and vote upon the following matters:

To elect five directors to our Board of Directors;
To approve, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation;
To ratify the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A., as our independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022; and
To transact any other business as may properly come before the meeting or at any adjournment thereof.

Stockholders of the Company as of June 24, 2022, the Record Date, may vote in one of the following two ways whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting: (1) by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card, or (2) by completing your proxy on the Internet at the address listed on the proxy card. It is important that you vote your shares whether or not you attend the meeting in person. If you attend the Annual Meeting, you may vote in person even if you have previously returned your proxy card or completed your proxy on the Internet. Shares represented by proxy will be voted in accordance with the instructions you provide to the individuals named on the proxy. If you provide no instruction, the shares will be voted for all of the proposals.

NO MATTER WHAT METHOD YOU ULTIMATELY DECIDE TO USE TO VOTE YOUR SHARES, WE URGE YOU TO VOTE PROMPTLY.

We have elected to provide access to our proxy materials to our stockholders via the Internet. Accordingly, on or about July 11, 2022, we will begin mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice and Access Card"). Our proxy materials, including the Notice of 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement and the accompanying proxy card or, for shares held in street name (i.e., held for your account by a broker or other nominee), a voting instruction form, and the 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K to Stockholders (the "2021 Annual Report"), will be mailed or made available to stockholders on the Internet on or about the same date.

Record Date; Shares Entitled To Vote; Vote Required To Approve the Transaction

The Board has fixed the close of business on June 24, 2022 (the "Record Date"), as the date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. On the Record Date, 10,350,579 shares of our common stock, par value $0.001 per share ("Common Stock") were issued and outstanding, and pursuant to our Bylaws, each outstanding share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote on each matter submitted to vote at a meeting of our stockholders.

A majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented either in person or by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. In the absence of a quorum, the Annual Meeting may be postponed from time to time until stockholders holding the requisite number of shares of our Common Stock are represented in person or by proxy. Broker non-votes and abstentions will be counted towards a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Broker non-votes will not count as votes for or against the proposals. Abstentions will count as votes against the ratification of the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A.

Solicitation, Voting and Revocation of Proxies

This solicitation of proxies is being made by our Board, and our Company will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communications by directors, officers and employees of our Company, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. We also will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to our stockholders.

Shares of our Common Stock represented by a proxy properly signed and received at or prior to the Annual Meeting, unless properly revoked, will be voted in accordance with the instructions on the proxy. If a proxy is signed and returned without any voting instructions, shares of our Common Stock represented by the proxy will be voted "FOR" the proposals described in this proxy statement, and in accordance with the determination of the majority of our Board, as to any other matter which may properly come before the Annual Meeting, including any adjournment or postponement thereof. A stockholder may revoke any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation by: (i) delivering to our corporate secretary, prior to or at the Annual Meeting, a written notice revoking the proxy; (ii) delivering to our corporate secretary, at or prior to the Annual Meeting, a duly executed proxy relating to the same shares and bearing a later date; or (iii) voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, in and of itself, constitute a revocation of a proxy. All written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to the revocation of a proxy should be addressed to:

Voting via the Internet is fast, convenient and your vote is immediately confirmed and tabulated. If you choose to vote via the Internet, instructions to do so are set forth on the enclosed proxy card. If you own your shares in your own name, you can vote via the Internet in accordance with the instructions provided on the proxy card. If your shares are held in "street name" by a bank, broker or other nominee, you can also vote via the Internet by following the voting instructions provided by your bank, broker or other nominee.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND ANNUAL MEETING

Q: WHAT IS THIS PROXY STATEMENT AND WHY AM I RECEIVING A NOTICE OF INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS?
A: You are receiving this Notice of internet availability of proxy materials in connection with an Annual Meeting of stockholders called by our Board of Directors in connection with soliciting stockholder votes for the purpose of (i) electing five directors to our Board to serve for a term ending on the date of the next Annual Meeting of stockholders following the date such persons are elected as directors, or until their successors are duly elected and qualified; (ii) approve in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation; and (iii) ratifying the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as our independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 in each case, as more fully described in this proxy statement. You have been sent this Notice of internet availability of proxy materials and the enclosed Notice and Access card because our Board of Directors is soliciting your proxy to vote at the Annual Meeting of stockholders called for the purpose of voting on the foregoing matters.
Q: WHY DID I RECEIVE A NOTICE OF INTERNET AVAILABILITY OF PROXY MATERIALS INSTEAD OF A FULL SET OF PROXY MATERIALS?
A: Pursuant to rules adopted by the SEC, for most stockholders, we are providing access to our proxy materials over the Internet rather than printing and mailing our proxy materials. We believe following this process will expedite the receipt of such materials and will help lower our costs and reduce the environmental impact of our annual meeting materials. Therefore, the Notice and Access Card was mailed to holders of record and beneficial owners of our common stock starting on or about July 11, 2022. The Notice and Access Card provides instructions as to how stockholders may access and review our proxy materials, including the Notice of 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement, the proxy card and our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10K, on the website referred to in the Notice and Access Card or, alternatively, how to request that a copy of the proxy materials, including a proxy card, be sent to them by mail. The Notice and Access Card also provides voting instructions. In addition, stockholders of record may request to receive the proxy materials in printed form by mail or electronically by e-mail on an ongoing basis for future stockholder meetings. Please note that, while our proxy materials are available at the website referenced in the Notice and Access Card and our Notice of 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, this proxy statement and our 2021 Annual Report are available on our website. No other information contained on either website is incorporated by reference in, or considered to be a part of, this proxy statement.
Q: WHAT INFORMATION IS CONTAINED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT?
A: The information included in this proxy statement relates to the proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting, the voting process, compensation of our directors and most highly paid executive officers, and certain other required information.
Q: WHO IS ENTITLED TO VOTE AT THE ANNUAL MEETING, AND WHAT VOTE IS REQUIRED TO APPROVE THE PROPOSALS?
A: Only holders of shares of our Common Stock, as of the Record Date, are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of June 24, 2022, the Record Date, there were 10,350,579 shares of our Common Stock issued and outstanding, and entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting. For all matters each outstanding share of our common stock will be entitled to one vote on each matter. Under Delaware law, and pursuant to our Bylaws, a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote, represented either in person or by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Once a quorum is established, stockholder approval with respect to a particular proposal is generally obtained by the affirmative vote of a majority of our issued and outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, represented in person or by proxy, except for the election of directors which is determined by a simple plurality of the votes cast.
Q: DOES OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMEND VOTING "FOR" THE PROPOSALS?
A: Yes. Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that our stockholders vote "FOR" each of the proposals described in this proxy statement.
4
Q: HOW MAY I VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS IF I OWN SHARES IN MY OWN NAME?
A: If you own your shares in your own name, you may vote on the proposals presented in this proxy statement in one of the following two ways whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting: (1) by completing, signing and dating the enclosed proxy card and returning it to the Company, or (2) by completing your proxy on the Internet at the address listed on the proxy card. It is important that you vote your shares whether or not you attend the meeting in person. If you provide no instructions, the shares will be voted "FOR"(i) the election of five nominees listed on the proxy card; (ii) the approval, in an advisory (non-binding) vote, our executive officer compensation and (iii) ratifying the appointment of Weinberg & Company, P.A. as our independent registered public accountant for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.
Q: HOW MAY I VOTE ON THE PROPOSALS IF MY SHARES ARE HELD IN "STREET NAME" BY MY BROKER, BANK OR OTHER NOMINEE?
A: If your shares are held in "street name" through a broker, bank or other nominee, you can also vote via the Internet by following the voting instructions provided by your bank, broker or other nominee. You may need to contact your bank or broker to vote. Brokerage firms do not have authority to vote shares for which their customers do not provide voting instructions except with respect to the ratification of Weinberg & Company, P.A. which is considered a routine matter. A broker, banker or other nominee no longer has discretion to vote for or against the election of directors or the approval of the executive officer compensation which are considered non-routine matters. Accordingly, we encourage you to provide instructions to your brokerage firm by signing and returning your proxy. This ensures your shares will be voted at the meeting.
Q: CAN I CHANGE MY MIND AND REVOKE MY PROXY?
A: Yes. If you are a stockholder of record, you may change your vote at any time before the polls close at the meeting. You may do this by (i) delivering to our corporate secretary, prior to or at the Annual Meeting, a written notice revoking the proxy; (ii) delivering to our corporate secretary, at or prior to the Annual Meeting, a duly executed proxy relating to the same shares and bearing a later date; or (iii) voting in person at the Annual Meeting. Attendance at the Annual Meeting, in and of itself, will not constitute a revocation of a proxy. If you hold your shares in "street name," you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your broker, bank or other nominee. If you voted by Internet, you may change your vote at any time up until 11:59 p.m., Los Angeles time, on August 22, 2022, by resubmitting a new Internet vote. Your last Internet vote will be the one which is used for voting purposes.
Q: CAN I VOTE MY SHARES IN PERSON?
A: Yes. The Annual Meeting is open to all holders of our common stock as of the Record Date. To vote in person, you will need to attend the meeting and bring with you evidence of your stock ownership. If your shares are registered in your name, you will need to bring a copy of stock certificate(s) together with valid picture identification. If your shares are held in the name of your broker, bank or another nominee or you received your proxy materials electronically, you will need to bring evidence of your stock ownership, such as your most recent brokerage account statement, and valid picture identification.
Q: DO I HAVE DISSENTERS' RIGHTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSALS?
A: No. Under Delaware law, "dissenters' rights" are not available in connection with the proposals presented in this proxy statement.
Q. HOW MAY I REQUEST A SINGLE SET OF PROXY MATERIALS FOR MY HOUSEHOLD?
A: If you share an address with another stockholder and have received multiple copies of our proxy materials, you may write us to request delivery of a single copy of these materials. Written requests should be made to Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803.
5
Q. WHAT SHOULD I DO IF I RECEIVE MORE THAN ONE SET OF VOTING MATERIALS?
A: You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you may receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a stockholder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date, and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive.
Q. WHAT HAPPENS IF ADDITIONAL MATTERS ARE PRESENTED AT THE ANNUAL MEETING?
A: Other than the proposals described in this proxy statement, we are not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the Annual Meeting. If you grant a proxy, the persons named as proxy holders will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the meeting. If for any reason any of our nominees are not available as a candidate for director, the persons named as proxy holders will vote your proxy for such other candidate or candidates as may be nominated by the Board.
Q. IS MY VOTE CONFIDENTIAL?
A: Proxy instructions, ballots and voting tabulations that identify individual stockholders are handled in a manner that protects your voting privacy. Your vote will not be disclosed either within the Company or to third parties, except: (1) as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements, (2) to allow for the tabulation of votes and certification of the vote, and (3) to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation. Occasionally, stockholders provide on their proxy card written comments, which are then forwarded to Company management.
Q. WHO IS PAYING FOR THIS PROXY SOLICITATION?
A: Our Board of Directors is making this solicitation, and we will pay the entire cost of preparing, assembling, printing, mailing and distributing these proxy materials. In addition to the mailing of these proxy materials, the solicitation of proxies or votes may be made in person, by telephone or by electronic communications by our directors, officers and employees, who will not receive any additional compensation for such solicitation activities. We will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses for forwarding proxy and solicitation materials to stockholders.

PROPOSAL I - ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Our Board currently has five directors. The Board proposes that all of the nominees listed below, each of whom currently serves on the Board, be elected as directors to serve for a term ending on the date of the next Annual Meeting of stockholders following the date such persons are elected as directors, and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has approved and recommended for election as directors at the Annual Meeting the nominees described in this proxy statement.

Each of the nominees has consented to serve if elected. If any of them becomes unavailable to serve as a director, the Board may designate a substitute nominee. In that case, the persons named as proxies will vote for the substitute nominee designated by the Board. There are no family relationships between any director, executive officer, or person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer. The affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares of Common Stock represented at the Annual Meeting is required to elect each director.

Name Age Position
Don Hankey 78 Chairman of the Board of Directors
Stephen R. LaNeve 61 Director
Bruce Stroever 70 Director
Erick Lucera 53 Director
Siddhesh Angle 37 Director

The biographies and work experience of each of our nominees for directors is set forth under "Directors, Executive Officers, Promoters and Control Persons" beginning on page 11 of this proxy statement.

Vote Required and Recommendation of Board of Directors

The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes cast at the meeting is required for the election of directors. A properly executed proxy marked "WITHHELD" with respect to the election of one or more directors will not be voted with respect to the director or directors indicated, although it will be counted for purposes of determining whether there is a quorum.

The Board of Directors Recommends a Vote "For" Each of the Nominees Listed Above.

PROPOSAL II - ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

This proposal, commonly known as a "say-on-pay" proposal, gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to endorse or not endorse our executive pay practices. This vote is intended to provide an overall assessment of our executive compensation program rather than focus on any specific item of compensation. The goal for our executive compensation program is to motivate and retain highly-talented executives who are critical to the successful implementation of our strategic business plan.

We invite you to consider the details of our executive compensation program provided in the tables and narrative discussion relating to the program. These will provide you with the individual elements of our compensation program and allow you to view the trends in compensation for the years presented.

We request stockholder approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to the SEC's compensation disclosure rules, which disclosures include the compensation tables and the narrative discussion pertaining to compensation. As an advisory vote, this proposal is not binding upon our Board of directors or us. However, we expect that our compensation committee, which is responsible for designing and administering our executive compensation program, will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for our named executive officers. Accordingly, we are asking you to approve the following resolution:

RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the named executive officers of Bone Biologics Corporation, as disclosed in the 2021 Proxy Statement of Bone Biologics Corporation pursuant to Item 402 of SEC Regulation S-K, including the compensation tables and narrative discussion, hereby is approved.

Recommendation of the Board

Our Board of directors unanimously recommends that you vote "FOR" the approval, on an advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers. Proxies received will be so voted unless stockholders vote otherwise via the Internet or specify otherwise in their completed and returned proxy cards.

PROPOSAL III - RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

In the event of a negative vote on such ratification, the Board will reconsider its selection. No determination has been made as to what action the Board would take if the stockholders do not ratify the appointment.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" THE RATIFICATION OF WEINBERG & COMPANY, P.A. AS OUR INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information, as of June 24, 2022, regarding the beneficial ownership of our common stock by:

each person known by us to be a beneficial owner of more than five percent of our outstanding common stock;
each of our directors and director nominee;
each of our named executive officers; and
all directors and executive officers as a group.

The amounts and percentage of common stock beneficially owned are reported on the basis of regulations of the SEC governing the determination of beneficial ownership of securities. Under the rules of the SEC, a person is deemed to be a "beneficial owner" of a security if that person has or shares "voting power," which includes the power to vote or to direct the voting of such security, or "investment power," which includes the power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of such security. A person is also deemed to be a beneficial owner of any securities of which that person has a right to acquire beneficial ownership within 60 days. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed a beneficial owner of securities as to which he has no economic interest. Except as indicated by footnote, the persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares of common stock shown as beneficially owned by them.

The Indemnification Agreement sets forth procedures for making and responding to a request for indemnification or advancement of expenses, as well as dispute resolution procedures that will apply to any dispute between us and an indemnitee arising under the Indemnification Agreement.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Indemnification Agreement filed as Exhibit 10.17 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed on September 25, 2014.

Report of the Audit Committee

The Audit Committee provides assistance to our Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibility to the company's stockholders, potential stockholders, the investment community, and others relating to our financial statements and the financial reporting process, the systems of internal accounting and financial controls, the internal audit function, the annual independent audit of our financial statements and the ethics programs when established by our management and our Board of Directors. The Audit Committee has the sole authority (subject, if applicable, to stockholder ratification) to appoint or replace the outside auditors and is directly responsible for determining the compensation of the independent auditors.

The Audit Committee schedules its meetings with a view to ensuring that it devotes appropriate attention to all of its tasks. In discharging its oversight role, the Audit Committee is empowered to investigate any matter brought to its attention, with full access to all of our books, records, facilities and personnel, and to retain its own legal counsel and other advisers as it deems necessary or appropriate.

As part of its oversight of our financial statements, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed with both management and its outside auditors our interim financial statements and annual audited financial statements that are included in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and Annual Report on Form 10-K, respectively. Our management advised the Audit Committee in each case that all such financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and reviewed significant accounting issues with the Audit Committee. These reviews included discussion with the outside auditors of matters required to be discussed pursuant to Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 16 (Communication with Audit Committees).

During the year ended December 31, 2021, Weinberg & Company, P.A. served as our independent registered public accounting firm and audited our financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021. Weinberg & Company, P.A. did not have any financial interest, direct or indirect, in our company, and did not have any connection with our company except in its professional capacity as our independent auditors.

14

The Audit Committee discussed with Weinberg & Company, P.A., the auditors of our 2021 annual financial statements, matters relating to its independence, including a review of audit and non-audit fees and the letter and written disclosures made by Weinberg & Company, P.A. to the Audit Committee pursuant to Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) Rule 3526.

Audit and non-audit services to be provided by Weinberg & Company, P.A. are subject to the prior approval of the Audit Committee. In general, the Audit Committee's policy is to grant such approval where it determines that the non-audit services are not incompatible with maintaining the independent registered public accounting firm's independence and there are cost or other efficiencies in obtaining such services from the independent registered public accounting firm as compared to other possible providers.

Taking all of these reviews and discussions into account, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the Board approve the inclusion of our audited financial statements in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC.

Respectfully submitted,

Audit Committee:

Erick Lucera, Chairman

Board Leadership Structure and Role in Risk Oversight

The Board of Directors believes it is important to select the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in the manner it considers in the best interests of the Company at any given time. The Board of Directors has elected a Chairman of the Board who is different from the Company's Chief Executive Officer.

The Board of Directors currently includes four individuals who are independent from the management of the Company and, assuming that these nominees are elected at the Annual Meeting, these members of the Board will continue to be independent directors. The Board of Directors and its committees meet regularly throughout the year to assure that the independent directors are well briefed and informed with regard to the Company's affairs. Independent directors have unfettered access to any employee within the Company and are encouraged to call upon whatever employee he deems fit to secure the information each director feels is important to their understanding of our Company. In this fashion, we seek to maintain well informed, independent directors who are prepared to make informed decisions regarding our business affairs.

Management is responsible for the day-to-day management of risks the Company faces, while the Board of Directors as a whole plays an important role in overseeing the identification, assessment and mitigation of such risks. The Board of Directors reviews information regarding the Company's finances and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. For example, the oversight of financial risk management lies primarily with the Board's Audit Committee, which is empowered to appoint and oversee our independent auditors, monitor the integrity of our financial reporting processes and systems of internal controls and provide an avenue of communication among our independent auditors, management and the Board of Directors. The Company's Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to the Company's compensation plans and arrangements. In fulfilling its risk oversight responsibility, the Board of Directors, as a whole and acting through any established committees, regularly consults with management to evaluate and, when appropriate, modify our risk management strategies.

Board (and Committee) Meetings and Attendance

For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, each of our directors has attended 75% or more of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board, and the committee(s) of the Board on which he serves. Each director is expected to attend and participate in, either in person or by means of telephonic or video conference, all scheduled meetings of the Board and all meetings of the committees of the Board on which such director serves, and all scheduled meetings of stockholders of the Company. All of our current directors are expected to attend the Annual Meeting via teleconference.

15

Communications with the Board of Directors

Stockholders may communicate directly with the Board by writing to them at Board of Directors, c/o Corporate Secretary, Bone Biologics Corporation, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803. Such communications will be forwarded to the director or directors to whom it is addressed, except for communications that are (1) advertisements or promotional communications, (2) solely related to complaints with respect to ordinary course of business issues, or (3) clearly unrelated to the Company's business, industry, management or Board or committee matters.

Legal Proceedings

In July 2019, Dr. Bessie (Chia) Soo and Dr. Kang (Eric) Ting ("Plaintiffs") filed a complaint (the "Complaint") in federal court in Massachusetts against the Company, Bruce Stroever ("Stroever"), John Booth ("Booth"), Stephen LaNeve ("LaNeve", and together with Stroever and Booth, the "Individual Defendants"), and MTF Biologics (f/k/a The Musculoskeletal Transplant Foundation, Inc.) ("MTF"). The Complaint alleges claims for breach of contract against the Company and tortious interference with contract against the Individual Defendants and MTF arising from the termination of the Professional Service Agreements, dated as of January 8, 2016, between the Company and each of the Plaintiffs. The Individual Defendants have been sued for actions taken by them in connection with their service to the Company as directors and/or officers of the Company. As such, the Company has certain indemnification obligations to the Individual Defendants. The Company and the Individual Defendants intend to vigorously defend against the allegations in the Complaint. Based on the very early stage of the litigation, it is not possible to estimate the amount or range of any possible loss arising from the expenditure of defense fees, a judgment or settlement of the matter.

In the normal course of our business, we may periodically become subjected to various lawsuits. However, there are currently no legal actions pending against us or, to our knowledge, are any such proceedings contemplated.

Our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan was approved by majority shareholder consent on December 30, 2015 and all options outstanding as of the effective date were cancelled and re-issued under the new plan at current plan terms.

Base Salary: The Company's base salaries are designed as a means to provide a fixed level of compensation in order to attract and retain talent. The base salaries of our named executive officers depend on their job responsibilities, the market rate of compensation paid by companies in our industry for similar positions, our financial position and the strength of our business.
Performance-Based Cash Awards: As part of the Company's executive compensation program, the board intends to establish an annual performance-based cash award program for our executive officers and other key employees based upon individual performance and the Company's performance. The award program will also be designed to reinforce the Company's goals and then current strategic initiatives. The annual performance-based cash awards will be based on the achievement of Company and individual performance metrics established at the beginning of each fiscal year by the compensation committee and our Board of Directors. Following the end of each fiscal year, the compensation committee will be responsible for determining the bonus amount payable to the executive officer based on the achievement of the Company's performance and the individual performance metrics established for such executive.
Long-Term Equity Awards: Our Board of Directors believes that equity ownership by our executive officers and key employees encourages them to create long-term value and aligns their interest with those of our stockholders. We grant annual equity awards to our executive officers under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. Our Board of Directors adopted and approved the following 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and intends to submit it for approval by our stockholders.
2015 Equity Incentive Plan: The Company has 560,000 shares of Common Stock authorized and reserved for issuance under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan for option awards. This reserve may be increased by the Board each year by up to the number of shares of stock equal to 5% of the number of shares of stock issued and outstanding on the immediately preceding December 31. Appropriate adjustments will be made in the number of authorized shares and other numerical limits in our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and in outstanding awards to prevent dilution or enlargement of participants' rights in the event of a stock split or other change in our capital structure. Shares subject to awards granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan which expire, are repurchased or are cancelled or forfeited will again become available for issuance under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan. The shares available will not be reduced by awards settled in cash. Shares withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations will not again become available for grant. The gross number of shares issued upon the exercise of stock appreciation rights or options exercised by means of a net exercise or by tender of previously owned shares will be deducted from the shares available under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.
Awards may be granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan to our employees, including officers, director or consultants, and our present or future affiliated entities. While we may grant incentive stock options only to employees, we may grant non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock purchase rights or bonuses, restricted stock units, performance shares, performance units and cash-based awards or other stock based awards to any eligible participant.
17
The 2015 Equity Incentive Plan will be administered by our compensation committee. Subject to the provisions of our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan, the compensation committee determines, in its discretion, the persons to whom, and the times at which, awards are granted, as well as the size, terms and conditions of each award. All awards are evidenced by a written agreement between us and the holder of the award. The compensation committee has the authority to construe and interpret the terms of our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan and awards granted under our 2015 Equity Incentive Plan.

Our Board of Directors approved the following compensation for our named executive officers:

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the Compensation Committee is or was an executive officer of our company or had any relationships requiring disclosure by us under the SEC's rules requiring disclosure of certain relationships and related-party transactions. None of our executive officers served as a director or a member of a compensation committee (or other committee serving an equivalent function) of any other entity, the executive officers of which served as a director or member of our compensation committee during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

None of the following persons has any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction to which we are a party since our incorporation or in any proposed transaction to which we are proposed to be a party:

Any of our directors or officers;
Any proposed nominee for election as our director;
Any person who beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, shares carrying more than 5% of the voting rights attached to our Common Stock; or
Any relative or spouse of any of the foregoing persons, or any relative of such spouse, who has the same house as such person or who is a director or officer of any parent or subsidiary of our Company.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

Due to the small size of our Company, we do not at this time have a formal written policy regarding the review of related party transactions, and rely on our full Board of Directors to review, approve or ratify such transactions and identify and prevent conflicts of interest. Our Board of Directors reviews any such transaction in light of the particular affiliation and interest of any involved director, officer or other employee or stockholder and, if applicable, any such person's affiliates or immediate family members. Management aims to present transactions to our Board of Directors for approval before they are entered into or, if that is not possible, for ratification after the transaction has occurred. If our Board of Directors finds that a conflict of interest exists, then it will determine the appropriate action or remedial action, if any. Our Board of Directors approves or ratifies a transaction if it determines that the transaction is consistent with our best interests and the best interest of our stockholders.

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

Stockholder Proposals for Inclusion in Company Proxy Statement. Stockholders may present proposals, including nominations for directors, for inclusion in our proxy statement prepared in connection with the Annual Meeting of stockholders to be held in the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 (the "Next Annual Meeting"). Among other requirements, for a proposal to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Next Annual Meeting, written notice must be received by the corporate secretary at our principal executive offices no later than 120 calendar days before the anniversary of the date of the Company's proxy statement released to stockholders in connection with the previous year's Annual Meeting. Accordingly, we must receive all such written notices no later than April 25, 2023.

Receipt of a stockholder proposal does not necessarily guarantee that the proposal will be included in the proxy statement for the Next Annual Meeting. Stockholders interested in submitting a nomination or proposal for consideration at the Next Annual Meeting should also consult our Bylaws to ensure that any such notice of nomination or proposal is submitted to the Company in proper form. In addition, stockholders should also be aware that any such proposal must comply with SEC rules concerning the inclusion of stockholder proposals in Company-sponsored proxy materials. Our Board will review any proposal that is received by the deadline and determine if it is a proper proposal for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Next Annual Meeting.

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other Annual Meeting materials addressed to those stockholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost savings for companies.

This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are Company stockholders will be "householding" the Company's proxy materials. A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be "householding" communications to your address, "householding" will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, please notify your broker or the Company. Direct your written request to Bone Biologics Corporation, Attention: Corporate Secretary, 2 Burlington Woods Drive, Ste 100, Burlington, MA 01803 and oral requests may be made by calling the Company at (781) 552-4452. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials at their addresses and would like to request "householding" of their communications should contact their brokers.

Management does not intend to present any other items of business and knows of no other matters that will be brought before the Annual Meeting. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, please sign and date the enclosed proxy card.
