PROXY STATEMENT

FOR 2023 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

To be held at 10:00 am, Eastern, on Thursday, June 8, 2023

The information provided in the “question and answer” format below is for your convenience only and is merely a summary of the information contained in this proxy statement. You should read this entire proxy statement carefully.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE PROXY MATERIALS AND OUR ANNUAL MEETING

Why am I receiving these materials?

The board of directors of PMV Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“PMV Pharmaceuticals,” the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), has made these proxy materials available to you on the Internet or, upon your request, by delivering printed versions of these materials to you by mail, in connection with the solicitation of proxies for use at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) which will take place on Thursday, June 8, 2023 at 10:00 a.m., Eastern.

Why did I receive a one-page notice in the mail regarding the Internet availability of proxy materials instead of a full set of printed proxy materials?

Pursuant to the “notice and access” rules adopted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), we have elected to provide stockholders access to our proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we sent a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the “Notice”) to all of our stockholders as of April 12, 2023 (the “Record Date”). The Notice includes instructions on how to access our proxy materials over the Internet and how to request a printed copy of these materials. Internet distribution of our proxy materials is designed to expedite receipt by stockholders, lower the cost of the Annual Meeting and conserve natural resources. However, if you would prefer to receive paper copies of proxy materials, please follow the instructions included in the Notice.

What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

For stockholders to vote on the following proposals to:

•	elect Richard Heyman, Ph.D., David H. Mack, Ph.D. and Laurie Stelzer as Class III directors;

•	approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, the compensation of our named executive officers;

•	ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023; and

•	transact any other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting.

How does the board of directors recommend that I vote on these proposals?

Our board of directors recommends that you vote your shares:

•	“FOR” the election of Richard Heyman, Ph.D., David H. Mack, Ph.D. and Laurie Stelzer as Class III directors;

•	“FOR” the approval of the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•	“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

Holders of our common stock as of the Record Date are entitled to receive the Notice and may vote their shares at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, there were 45,774,761 shares of our common stock outstanding. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote on each matter properly brought before the Annual Meeting. Stockholders are not permitted to cumulate votes with respect to the election of directors.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

Stockholders of Record. If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, then you are considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares, and the Notice was sent directly to you by us. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to grant your voting proxy directly to the individuals listed on the proxy card or to vote on your own behalf at the Annual Meeting. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these holders as “stockholders of record.”

Street Name Stockholders. If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by a broker, bank or other nominee, then you are considered the “beneficial owner” of shares held in street name, and the Notice was forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee, which is considered the stockholder of record with respect to those shares. As a beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other nominee on how to vote the shares held in your account by following the instructions that your broker, bank or other nominee sent to you. Throughout this proxy statement, we refer to these holders as “street name stockholders.”

How can I vote my shares?

The instructions for accessing proxy materials and voting can be found in the Notice that you received either by mail or e-mail. In order to access proxy materials and vote, you will need the control number provided on the Notice. There are four ways a stockholder of record can vote:

(1)	By Internet: You may vote over the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice or if you requested printed copies of proxy materials, the instructions provided in the proxy card.

(2)	By Telephone: You can vote by telephone by following the instructions in the Notice or if you requested printed copies of proxy materials, the instructions provided in the proxy card.

(3)	By Mail: If you requested printed copies of proxy materials, you can vote by mailing your proxy card as described in the proxy materials.

(4)

During the meeting: If you are a stockholder as of the Record Date, you may vote online during the Annual Meeting, follow the provided instructions to join the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PMVP2023, starting at 10:00 a.m., Eastern, on Thursday, June 8, 2023. The webcast will open 15 minutes before the start of the Annual Meeting. Submitting a proxy will not prevent a stockholder from attending the Annual Meeting, revoking their earlier-submitted proxy, and voting in person. You may also be represented by another person at the Annual Meeting by executing a legal proxy designating that person.

In order to be counted, proxies submitted by telephone or Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m., Eastern, on Wednesday, June 7, 2023. If you vote by telephone or Internet, you do not need to return your proxy card or voting instruction card. Proxies submitted by mail must be received before the start of the virtual Annual Meeting.

If you are a street name stockholder, then you will receive voting instructions from your broker, bank or other nominee. The availability of telephone or Internet voting options will depend on the voting process of your broker, bank or other nominee. We therefore recommend that you follow the voting instructions in the materials you receive. If your voting instruction form or the Notice indicates that you may vote your shares through the proxyvote.com website, then you may vote those shares at the Annual Meeting with the control number indicated on that voting instruction form or Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials. Otherwise, you may not vote your shares at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee. All shares that have been properly voted and not revoked will be cast as votes at the Annual Meeting.

What happens if I decide to attend the virtual Annual Meeting, but I have already voted or submitted a proxy covering my shares?

You may still attend the virtual Annual Meeting. Please be aware that attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy.

Where will the Annual Meeting be held?

The Annual Meeting will be a completely “virtual meeting” of shareholders. You will be able to attend the Annual Meeting, vote and submit your questions during the Annual Meeting via live webcast by visiting www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PMVP2023.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Why is the Annual Meeting a virtual, online meeting?

We have decided to hold the Annual Meeting virtually this year and there will not be a physical location for attending the 2023 Annual Meeting. We believe that by conducting our Annual Meeting solely online via the Internet, we eliminate many of the costs associated with a physical meeting. We also anticipate that a virtual meeting will provide greater accessibility for stockholders, encourage stockholder participation from around the world, and improve our ability to communicate more effectively with our stockholders, all while reducing the environmental impact of the Annual Meeting.

What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to be present or represented at the Annual Meeting for the meeting to be properly held under our amended and restated bylaws and Delaware law. The presence, in person (including virtually) or by proxy, of a majority of the voting power of our capital stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote will constitute a quorum to transact business at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions, choosing to withhold authority to vote and broker non-votes are counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. If there is no quorum, the chairperson of the meeting may adjourn the meeting to another time or place.

What if I do not specify how my shares are to be voted or fail to provide timely directions to my broker, bank or other nominee?

Stockholder of Record. If you are a stockholder of record and you submit a proxy, but you do not provide voting instructions, your shares will be voted:

•	“FOR” the election of each Class III director nominee named in this proxy statement;

•	“FOR” the compensation of our named executive officers; and

•	“FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023.

In addition, if any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will be authorized to vote or otherwise act on those matters in accordance with their judgment.

Street Name Stockholders. Brokers, banks and other nominees holding shares of common stock in street name for customers are generally required to vote such shares in the manner directed by their customers. In the absence of timely directions, your broker, bank or other nominee will have discretion to vote your shares on our sole routine matter: the proposal to ratify the appointment of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2023. Your broker, bank or other nominee will not have discretion to vote on any other proposals, which are considered non-routine matters, absent direction from you. In the event that your broker, bank or other nominee votes your shares on our sole routine matter, but is not able to vote your shares on the non-routine matters, then those shares will be treated as broker non-votes with respect to the non-routine proposals. Accordingly, if you own shares through a nominee, such as a broker or bank, please be sure to instruct your nominee how to vote to ensure that your shares are counted on each of the proposals.

Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?

Stockholder of Record. If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy before the Annual Meeting by:

•	entering a new vote by Internet or telephone (subject to the applicable deadlines for each method as set forth above);

•	completing and returning a later-dated proxy card, which must be received prior to the Annual Meeting; or

•	delivering a written notice of revocation to our corporate secretary at PMV Pharmaceuticals, Inc., One Research Way Princeton, New Jersey 08540, Attention: Corporate Secretary, which must be received prior to the Annual Meeting.

Street Name Stockholders. If you are a street name stockholder, then your broker, bank or other nominee can provide you with instructions on how to change or revoke your proxy.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the virtual meeting?

We will have technicians ready to assist you with any technical difficulties you may have accessing the virtual Annual Meeting. If you encounter any difficulties accessing the virtual Annual Meeting during the check-in or meeting time, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the Annual Meeting log-in page. Technical support will be available starting at 9:30 a.m., Eastern, on Thursday, June 8, 2023.

How do I attend, participate in, and ask questions during the virtual Annual Meeting online?

We will be hosting the Annual Meeting via live webcast only. Any stockholder can attend the virtual Annual Meeting live online at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PMVP2023. The meeting will start at 10:00 a.m., Eastern, on Thursday, June 8, 2023. Stockholders attending the virtual Annual Meeting will be afforded the same rights and opportunities to participate as they would at an in-person meeting.

In order to enter the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number, which is included in the Notice or on your proxy card if you are a stockholder of record of shares of common stock, or included with your voting instruction card and voting instructions received from your broker, bank or other agent if you hold your shares of common stock in a “street name.” Shares held in your name as the shareholder of record may be voted electronically during the Annual Meeting. Shares for which you are the beneficial owner but not the shareholder of record also may be voted electronically during the Annual Meeting. Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting online, we recommend that you also vote by proxy as described above so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting. We urge you to submit your proxy as soon as possible. We recommend that you log in before 10:00 a.m., Eastern, to ensure you are logged in when the Annual Meeting starts. Online check-in will begin at 9:45 a.m., Eastern, and you should also allow ample time for the online check-in procedures.

If you would like to submit a question during the Annual Meeting, you may log in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PMVP2023 using your 16-digit control number, click on the “Q&A” button to open the panel, enter your question in the field labelled “ASK a question” and click “SUBMIT.”

To help ensure that we have a productive and efficient meeting, and in fairness to all stockholders in attendance, you will also find posted our rules of conduct for the Annual Meeting when you log in prior to its start. These rules of conduct will include the following guidelines:

•	You may submit questions and comments electronically through the meeting portal or by calling the toll-free number listed there during the Annual Meeting.

•	Only stockholders of record as of the Record Date for the Annual Meeting and their proxy holders may submit questions or comments.

•	Please direct all questions to David H. Mack, our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director.

•	Please include your name and affiliation, if any, when submitting a question or comment.

•	Limit your remarks to one brief question or comment that is relevant to the Annual Meeting and/or our business.

•	Questions may be grouped by topic by our management.

•	Questions may also be ruled as out of order if they are, among other things, irrelevant to our business, related to pending or threatened litigation, disorderly, repetitious of statements already made, or in furtherance of the speaker’s own personal, political or business interests.

•	Be respectful of your fellow stockholders and Annual Meeting participants.

•	No audio or video recordings of the Annual Meeting are permitted.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

What can I do if I change my mind after I vote my shares?

If you are a stockholder of record, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy before it is exercised by:

•	written notice to the Corporate Secretary of the Company;

•	timely delivery of a valid, later-dated proxy or a later-dated vote on the Internet; or

•	voting in person at the virtual Annual Meeting; however, simply attending the virtual meeting will not, by itself, revoke your proxy.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you should follow the instructions of your bank, broker or other nominee to change or revoke your voting instructions. You may also vote in person at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a legal proxy as described in the answer to the previous question.

What is the effect of giving a proxy?

Proxies are solicited on behalf of the Company and our board of directors. David H. Mack, Ph.D., our President, Chief Executive Officer and Director, and Winston Kung, our Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, have been designated as proxy holders for the Annual Meeting by our board of directors. When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions of the stockholder. If the proxy is dated and signed, but no specific instructions are given, however, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors on the proposals as described above. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, then the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote your shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, then the proxy holders can vote your shares on the new meeting date, unless you have properly revoked your proxy, as described above.

Is there a list of stockholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?

The names of stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available online during the Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/PMVP2023, for those stockholders attending the Annual Meeting. A list of names of stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be made available for examination by any stockholder for any purpose germane to the meeting for a period of at least ten days prior to the Annual Meeting between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Eastern, at our principal executive offices at One Research Way, Princeton, New Jersey 08540, by contacting the Corporate Secretary of the Company.

How many shares are required to approve the proposals being voted upon at the Annual Meeting?

The presence of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, is necessary to constitute a quorum. Assuming there is a proper quorum of shares represented at the Annual Meeting, the voting requirements for approval of the proposals at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

Proposal			Vote required
1. Election of directors			Plurality of votes cast
2. Compensation of our named executive officers			Majority of votes cast
3. Ratification of Ernst & Young LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for fiscal year 2023			Majority of votes cast

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

At the date of this proxy statement, we did not know of any matters to be raised at the Annual Meeting other than those referred to in this proxy statement. If other matters are properly presented at the Annual Meeting for consideration, the proxy holders named on the proxy card will have the discretion to vote on those matters for you.

Who will pay for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the cost of soliciting proxies. Our directors, senior executives or employees, acting without special compensation, may also solicit proxies. Proxies may be solicited by personal interview, mail, electronic transmission, facsimile transmission or telephone. We are required to send copies of proxy-related materials or

TABLE OF CONTENTS

additional solicitation materials to brokers, fiduciaries and custodians who will forward these materials to the beneficial owners of our shares. On request, we will reimburse brokers and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for their reasonable expenses in forwarding these materials to beneficial owners.

Who will count the votes?

PMV Pharmaceuticals has designated Lou Larsen, a representative from Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., as the Inspector of Election who will tabulate the votes.

How can I contact PMV Pharmaceuticals’ transfer agent?

You may contact our transfer agent, American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, by telephone at (800) 937-5449, or by writing American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC, at 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11219.

Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

We will disclose voting results on a Current Report on Form 8-K that we will file with the SEC within four business days after the meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K, we will file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice or more than one set of printed proxy materials?

If you receive more than one Notice or more than one set of printed proxy materials, then your shares may be registered in more than one name and/or are registered in different accounts. Please follow the voting instructions on each Notice or each set of printed proxy materials, as applicable, to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

I share an address with another stockholder, and we received only one copy of the Notice or proxy statement and annual report. How may I obtain an additional copy of the Notice or proxy statement and annual report?

We have adopted a procedure approved by the SEC called “householding,” under which we can deliver a single copy of the Notice and, if applicable, the proxy statement and annual report, to multiple stockholders who share the same address unless we receive contrary instructions from one or more stockholders. This procedure reduces our printing and mailing costs. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to be able to access and receive separate proxy cards. Upon written or oral request, we will deliver promptly a separate copy of the Notice, if applicable, the proxy statement and annual report, to any stockholder at a shared address to which we delivered a single copy of these documents. To receive a separate copy, or, if you are receiving multiple copies, to request that we only send a single copy of next year’s Notice proxy statement and annual report, as applicable, you may contact us as follows:

Street name stockholders may contact their broker, bank or other nominee to request information about householding.

DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board Composition

Our board of directors currently consists of seven members. Our directors are divided into three classes serving staggered three-year terms. Upon expiration of the term of a class of directors, directors in that class will be eligible to be elected for a new three-year term at the annual meeting of stockholders in the year in which their term expires. As a result of this classification of directors, it generally takes at least two annual meetings of stockholders for stockholders to effect a change in a majority of the members of our board of directors.

The principal occupations and certain other information about the nominees and the additional members of our board of directors (including the skills and qualifications that led to the conclusion that they should serve as directors) are set forth below.

Director Independence

Our common stock is listed on the Nasdaq Global Select Market (“Nasdaq”). Under the rules of Nasdaq, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the rules of Nasdaq require that, subject to specified exceptions and phase-in periods, each member of a listed company’s audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee be independent. Audit committee members must also satisfy the independence criteria set forth in Rule 10A-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Under the rules of Nasdaq, a director will only qualify as an “independent director” if, in the opinion of that company’s board of directors, that person does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.

To be considered to be independent for purposes of Rule 10A-3 and under the rules of Nasdaq, a member of an audit committee of a listed company may not, other than in his or her capacity as a member of the audit committee, the board of directors or any other board committee: (1) accept, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the listed company or any of its subsidiaries or (2) be an affiliated person of the listed company or any of its subsidiaries.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

To be considered independent for purposes of Rule 10C-1 and under the rules of Nasdaq, the board of directors must affirmatively determine that each member of the compensation committee is independent, including a consideration of all factors specifically relevant to determining whether the director has a relationship to the company which is material to that director’s ability to be independent from management in connection with the duties of a compensation committee member, including, but not limited to: (i) the source of compensation of such director, including any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee paid by the company to such director and (ii) whether such director is affiliated with the company, a subsidiary of the company or an affiliate of a subsidiary of the company.

Our board of directors undertook a review of its composition, the composition of its committees and the independence of our directors and considered whether any director has a material relationship with us that could compromise his or her ability to exercise independent judgment in carrying out his or her responsibilities. Based upon information requested from and provided by each director concerning his or her background, employment and affiliations, including family relationships, our board of directors has determined that Charles M. Baum, M.D., Ph.D., Kirsten Flowers, Carol Gallagher, Pharm.D., Richard Heyman, Ph.D. and Laurie Stelzer, representing five of our seven directors, do not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director and that each of these directors is “independent” as that term is defined under the rules of Nasdaq. Dr. Mack is not an independent director because he is our President and Chief Executive Officer. Dr. Levine is not independent because he provides general consulting and advisory services to us, serves as a member of our scientific advisory board (“SAB”) and, within the last three fiscal years, received compensation for his consulting and advisory services, as well as for his SAB service, in excess of Nasdaq’s minimum independence thresholds.

In making these determinations, our board of directors considered the current and prior relationships that each non-employee director has with our company and all other facts and circumstances our board of directors deemed relevant in determining their independence, including the beneficial ownership of our capital stock by each non-employee director, and the transactions involving them. There are no family relationships among any of our directors or executive officers.

Board Leadership Structure

Our board of directors is currently chaired by Richard Heyman, Ph.D. As a general policy, our board of directors believes that separation of the positions of chairperson of our board of directors and Chief Executive Officer reinforces the independence of our board of directors from management, creates an environment that encourages objective oversight of management’s performance and enhances the effectiveness of our board of directors as a whole. As such, David H. Mack, Ph.D. serves as our Chief Executive Officer while Dr. Heyman serves as the chairperson of our board of directors, but is not an officer. We currently expect and intend the positions of chairperson of our board of directors and Chief Executive Officer to continue to be held by two individuals in the future. We believe that our board leadership structure is appropriate for our Company, particularly where we have a majority of independent directors who are all actively involved in meetings of the board of directors and its committees, which include activate engagement with management for oversight of our key risk areas. In addition, our board of directors, including our leadership, is comprised of individuals who have expertise in research, product and clinical development, finance, accounting, commercialization, corporate development and general management of other biopharmaceutical companies.

Board Committees and Meetings

Our board of directors has established an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition and responsibilities of each committee are described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our board of directors. Each of the audit committee, compensation committee, and nominating and corporate governance committee is a standing committee and operates pursuant to a separate written charter adopted by our board of directors that is available on the Investors section of the Company’s website at ir.pmvpharma.com. The inclusion of our website address in this proxy statement does not include or incorporate by reference into this proxy statement the information on or accessible through our website.

Our board of directors met 12 times during fiscal year 2022. During fiscal year 2022, each of our directors attended 75% or more of the aggregate of (a) the total number of meetings of the board of directors held while a

director (during the period in which the director served on the board of directors) and (b) the total number of meetings held by all committees on which the director served (during the period in which the director served on such committees). Pursuant to our corporate governance guidelines, each director is encouraged to attend each annual meeting of stockholders.

Although we do not have a formal policy regarding attendance by members of our board of directors at the annual meetings of stockholders, we encourage, but do not require, directors to attend. Two of our seven directors attended our 2022 annual meeting of stockholders.

Audit Committee

The audit committee consists of Ms. Stelzer, Ms. Flowers and Dr. Heyman. Ms. Stelzer is the chairperson of the audit committee.

Our board of directors has also determined that each member of our audit committee can read and understand fundamental financial statements, in accordance with applicable requirements.

Compensation Committee

The compensation committee consists of Dr. Heyman, Ms. Stelzer and Dr. Baum, each of whom meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Dr. Heyman is the chairperson of the compensation committee. Each member of the compensation committee is also a non-employee director, as defined pursuant to Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act. The compensation committee oversees our compensation policies, plans and benefits programs. Our compensation committee also:

•	oversees our overall compensation philosophy and compensation policies, plans and benefits programs;

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The compensation committee has the right, in its sole discretion, to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, independent legal counsel and other advisers.

The compensation committee operates under a written charter that satisfies the applicable rules of the SEC and Nasdaq listing rules. Our compensation committee’s written charter may be located on our website at ir.pmvpharma.com. The compensation committee met four times in fiscal year 2022.

The nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Dr. Baum, Dr. Gallagher and Dr. Heyman, each of whom meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Dr. Baum is the chairperson of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The nominating and corporate governance committee oversees and assists our board of directors in reviewing and recommending nominees for election as directors. Among other matters, our nominating and corporate governance committee also:

Our nominating and corporate governance committee’s written charter may be located on our website at ir.pmvpharma.com. The nominating and corporate governance committee met four times in fiscal year 2022.

Identifying and Evaluating Director Nominees

Our board of directors has delegated to the nominating and corporate governance committee the responsibility of identifying individuals qualified to become members of the board of directors and recommending to the board of directors nominees to fill vacancies and newly created directorships and the nominees to stand for election as directors. If the nominating and corporate governance committee determines that an additional or replacement director is required, it may take such measures that it considers appropriate in connection with its evaluation of a director candidate, including candidate interviews, inquiry of the person or persons making the recommendation or nomination, engagement of an outside search firm to gather additional information, or reliance on the knowledge of the members of the committee, the board of directors or management.

In its evaluation of director candidates, including the members of the board of directors eligible for reelection, the nominating and corporate governance committee will consider the current size and composition of the board of directors and the needs of the board of directors and its committees. Some of the factors that our nominating and corporate governance committee considers include, without limitation, character, integrity, judgment, diversity, including diversity in terms of gender, race, ethnicity and experience, independence, area of expertise, corporate experience, length of service, potential conflicts of interest, other commitments and similar factors.

Nominees must also have the highest personal and professional ethics and integrity, proven achievement and competence in the nominee’s field and the ability to exercise sound business judgment, skills that are

TABLE OF CONTENTS

complementary to those of the existing board of directors, the ability to assist and support management and make significant contributions to the Company’s success, and an understanding of the fiduciary responsibilities that are required of a member of the board of directors and the commitment of time and energy necessary to diligently carry out those responsibilities.

Role of the Board in Risk Oversight

Our board of directors has an active role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing the management of our risks. Our board of directors is responsible for general oversight of risks and regular review of information regarding our risks, including operational, cybersecurity, credit and liquidity risks. The compensation committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our executive compensation plans and arrangements. The audit committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to accounting matters and financial reporting. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for identifying, evaluating and recommending to our board of directors’ nominees for election and the composition of our board of directors and its committees. Although each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, our board of directors is regularly informed on risks related to our overall operations as a clinical stage precision oncology company, as well as through discussions from committee members about their respective areas of risk oversight. The board of directors’ allocation of risk oversight responsibility may change from time to time based on the evolving needs of the Company.

Our board of directors believes its current leadership structure supports the risk oversight function of the board. Given the operating experience of our board members, either as executive officers or members of the board of directors of other biopharmaceutical companies, we believe that our board leadership structure has the requisite experience and expertise to oversee the board of directors’ risk oversight function There is also open communication between management and directors through periodic reviews of our key risk areas and mitigation steps to reduce our risk exposure, and all directors are actively involved in the risk oversight function.

Stockholder Recommendations and Nominations to our Board of Directors

Our nominating and corporate governance committee will consider recommendations and nominations for candidates to our board of directors from stockholders in the same manner as candidates recommended to the committee from other sources, so long as such recommendations and nominations comply with our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws, all applicable company policies and all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including those promulgated by the SEC. Our nominating and corporate governance committee will evaluate such recommendations in accordance with its charter, our bylaws and corporate governance guidelines and the director nominee criteria described above.

A stockholder that wants to recommend a candidate to our board of directors should direct the recommendation in writing by letter to our corporate secretary at PMV Pharmaceuticals, Inc., One Research Way, Princeton, New Jersey 08540, Attention: Corporate Secretary.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

During 2022, the members of our compensation committee were Dr. Heyman, Peter Thompson, M.D., until his resignation on January 5, 2022, and Ms. Stelzer and Dr. Baum, each effective as of January 5, 2022. Dr. Thompson’s resignation from our board of directors was not related to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to its operations, policies or practices. None of the members of the fiscal year 2022 compensation committee (Dr. Heyman, Dr. Thompson, Ms. Stelzer and Dr. Baum) has been an officer or employee of PMV Pharmaceuticals or any of our subsidiaries at any time.

Outside Director Compensation Policy

We adopted an outside director compensation policy (the “Director Compensation Policy”) that became effective upon the closing of our initial public offering in September 2020, and is subject to an annual review by our compensation committee in consultation with our compensation consultant and recommendation for any revisions to our board of directors. In May 2022, the Company revised the Director Compensation Policy to increase director compensation to remain consistent with companies similar to its industry and market capitalization. Such increase is in the form of stock options to purchase shares of our common stock to further align the interests of our directors with our stockholders. Our board of directors has the discretion to revise non-employee director compensation as it deems necessary or appropriate. Under our Director Compensation Policy, each non-employee director upon first becoming a non-employee director automatically receives an initial option to purchase 39,000 shares of common stock. The initial option vests in 36 equal, monthly installments after the grant date, subject to continued service through the vesting date. Additionally, each non-employee director automatically receives an annual option to purchase 19,500 shares, effective on the date of each annual meeting of the stockholders. The annual option vests on the earlier of one year following the grant date or the next annual meeting of stockholders, subject to continued service through the vesting date. All awards under the Director Compensation Policy accelerate and vest upon a change in control. The exercise price of all options under the Director Compensation Policy is the fair market value on the date of grant.

Scientific Advisory Board

We have established a scientific advisory board composed of leading academic and industry scientists. We seek advice and input from these scientists on an ad hoc basis, individually or as a group, to provide scientific and clinical feedback and advice related to our research and development platform and programs. The members of our advisory board consist of experts across a range of key disciplines relevant to our programs. Except for Drs. Heyman and Levine, who are members of our board of directors, our advisors are not our employees or directors and have no decision-making authority over our activities. Our advisors may have commitments to, or consulting or advisory contracts with, other entities that may limit their availability to us. In addition, our advisors may have arrangements with other companies to assist those companies in developing products or technologies that may compete with ours. All of our advisors are affiliated with other entities and devote only a small portion of their time to us. Our advisors receive cash and equity compensation based upon consulting services rendered. Effective September 1, 2021, Dr. Heyman agreed to waive any future scientific advisory compensation he is otherwise entitled to be paid for those services to us.

Indemnification

We have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors and executive officers. The indemnification agreements and our certificate of incorporation and bylaws require us to indemnify our directors and executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. See “Certain Relationships and Related Person Transactions—Indemnification of Directors and Officers.”

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) Initiatives

As an early clinical-stage precision oncology company, we are rooted in our mission to fundamentally disrupt the course of cancer for patients with p53 gene mutations and other p53-related cancers. We believe integrating responsible environmental, social, and governance principles into our corporate strategy will drive sustainable value creation for our shareholders, employees, patients, and caregivers over the long term. We have formed an internal ESG Working Group with cross-functional senior leadership, and oversight by the nominating and corporate governance committee of our board of directors to oversee our sustainability efforts and have documented our initiatives in our inaugural 2022 ESG Highlights Report, which is available on our website at ir.pmvpharma.com.
