Dear Actinium Shareholders,

Our team at Actinium Pharmaceuticals believes that our lead clinical assets afford us the wonderful opportunity of delivering therapies to the sickest of cancer patients that will be truly major medical advances due to their promising safety profile and effectiveness. Our goal of developing safe and effective cancer therapies based on our radiopharmaceutical assets is admittedly challenging but also an extremely motivating endeavor for the team at Actinium. With this motivation in hand, we set out in 2016 to execute on a series of exciting milestones that would transform Actinium and put us in a position to deliver significant value via measurable clinical progress in 2017 and beyond.

As we reflect on 2016, we find satisfaction in the fact that we have accomplished the most important milestones we had set out for ourselves at the end of 2015. The major value driver from a year ago is transformation of the company profile from early-stage to a later-stage biotech based on the start of the Phase 3 trial for Iomab-B and the Phase 2 program for Actimab-A. Along the way, we strengthened the profile of these assets and our platform from regulatory and intellectual property perspectives. We also strategically hired highly qualified individuals to augment the team so we could meet our goals but more importantly prepare to drive value going-forward.

We are eager to present you with a review of the key highlights from 2016 as we approach its close and excited to give you a preview of the future which looks increasingly promising given the accomplishments in 2016. Of course, none of this would be possible without the support and loyalty of you our shareholders and for this we thank you deeply.

Key Accomplishments in 2016

Iomab-B Pivotal Phase 3 Trial Initiated, Significant and Growing Support from Major Transplant Hospitals, Orphan Drug Protection Awarded and Process for EU Access Started

• The Phase 3 pivotal trial dubbed the SIERRA (Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed or Refractory AML) trial for Iomab-B was initiated in 1H:2016, as forecasted, representing a major step forward for this program given the manufacturing issues that were a key focus in 2015.

• Significant enthusiasm for Iomab-B and the SIERRA trial was seen at our Investigator Meeting in July with continued interest since the meeting from physicians at leading bone marrow transplant (BMT) centers.

• Orphan Drug Designation awarded for Iomab-B in the US and the EU with potential regulatory, financial and marketing incentives.

• Initiated pursuit of Scientific Advice for Iomab-B from the European Medicines Agency (EMA) to explore regulatory pathway in the EU and awarded preferential Small Medium - Sized Enterprise status providing enhanced support from regulators.

• Expected prominent position in major per reviewed scientific publication and outreach program at the American Society of Hematology (ASH) annual meeting will continue to drive interest for Iomab-B and the SIERRA trial.

Promising Phase 1 Trial Results for Actimab-A Sets Stage for Ongoing Phase 2 Clinical Trial to Yield Potentially Best in CD33 Class Results

• Results from an analysis of the two Actimab-A Phase I trials in our HuM195-Alpha program showed that Actimab-A was well tolerated amongst patients who have few treatment options due to the toxicity of chemotherapy and also had promising efficacy.

• A key discovery made while analyzing these trials was that patients with high levels of immature white blood cells or Peripheral Blasts (PBs) had lower treatment response rates than those with lower PB’s. This finding gave rise to the PB Burden Hypothesis which postulates that PB’s levels are predictive of, and inversely correlated with patient responses to Actimab-A.

• The ongoing Phase 2 trial mandates low PB burden below a key threshold and as an inclusion criteria with use of hydroxyurea mandated to lower PB burden where necessary in order to maximize the addressable patient population.

• Importantly, the Phase 2 PB burden threshold corresponds to a response rate of fifty percent at equivalent dose levels in the Phase I trials. If these results are replicated in the ongoing Phase 2 they will imply that Actimab-A with its benign safety profile and relatively simple regimen and route of administration is a best in class treatment compared to the other CD33 programs.

Regulatory and intellectual property related activity, strategic hiring sets stage for international expansion and growth

• Activity related to strengthening the intellectual property remains robust with key patents being filed and notices of allowance being received this year for Iomab-B, Actimab-A and the platform.

• Orphan drug designation for Iomab-B in the U.S. and EU was achieved this year as mentioned earlier. Pursuit of orphan designation in the EU for Actimab-A is expected imminently.

• An independent analysis indicates the EU market for Iomab-B is larger than the U.S. market and reimbursement can be favorable and the company has begun exploring regulatory approval strategies.

• Key managerial hires were made in the supply chain, quality control and clinical development areas to support the expanded clinical development and pipeline expansion activity expected going forward

Key Programs and Initiatives

SIERRA Trial On Track to Read Out Data in 2017

After receiving clearance of the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for Iomab-B in December of 2015, our focus for the first half of this year was to initiate the pivotal Phase 3 SIERRA trial. We initiated the SIERRA trial in June and the Iomab-B team has been laser focused on execution of the trial. We believe Actinium has the opportunity to create a new market segment with Iomab-B as there is no defined standard of care for the patient population we are addressing, namely relapsed or refractory AML patients over the age of 55. In addition, we believe there are no other therapies in development that are intended to be an induction and conditioning agent prior to a BMT like Iomab-B. This gives us great excitement because if we are successful in getting Iomab-B to market, we would be offering patients who are relapsed or refractory and have few, if any, viable treatment options the hope for a BMT, which is the only potential cure for these patients.

The SIERRA trial is expected to enroll 150 patients and be randomized for 75 patients per arm. The study arm is Iomab-B followed by a bone marrow transplant and the control arm is physician’s choice of chemotherapy (again, there is no standard of care) followed by either a bone marrow transplant, if the patient is eligible, or other treatment modalities including best supportive care. The primary endpoint is durable complete response, defined as a complete remission lasting at least 6 months, and the secondary endpoint will be overall survival at one year. In its proof of concept trial, Iomab-B results showed survival of thirty and twenty percent at one and two years respectively, wherein two year survival is a landmark which is widely regarded as a proxy for being considered cured. These results compare favorably with studies that show one year survival of ten percent and almost zero at two years for patients who were able to receive transplant using combinations of chemotherapeutics.

The SIERRA trial will have 3 independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) reports that will occur at 25, 50 and 75 percent of patient enrollment and potentially up to two ad hoc reports that can occur when patient enrollment is between 70 and 110 patients. Our first official update on patient enrollment will occur when the first DMC report is issued when patient enrollment reaches 25 percent. These initial results are expected to occur in 1H:2017 and we anticipate the interval between subsequent DMC reports to be shorter than previous reports as enrollment accelerates due to a combination of greater number of sites, increased efficiency at trial sites and increased recruitment efforts. We expect to update on patient enrollment at the time of the first DMC report and also on the timing of subsequent reports. At this time we continue to project that topline data on the trial can be available in 2H:2018. We look forward to keeping you apprised of developments related to the SIERRA trial and Iomab-B.

Actimab-A Phase 2 Data in 2017 Could be Basis for a Pivotal Trial

The recently initiated Phase 2 clinical trial for Actimab-A in patients newly diagnosed with AML who are over the age of 60 will enroll 53 patients and we expect a formal interim data to be presented in mid-2017 with completion of the trial expected at the end of 2017. As we have highlighted in past webinars, we have great excitement for Actimab-A based on the efficacy and safety data from our most recent Phase 1 trial, the prior clinical trial in patients 18 years and older with relapsed or refractory AML and our PB burden hypothesis that found that patients with PB burden below a key threshold respond better to Actimab-A and that patients can reach a low PB burden state using hydroxyurea.

As a reminder, the recent Phase 1 study showed a 28% composite Complete Response (CRc) rate among all patients and a 33% composite Complete Response (CRc) among patients treated at the 3 highest dose levels (1.0 µCi/kg/fractionated dose — 2.0 µCi/kg/fractionated dose). The Actimab-A Phase 2 trial will be conducted with the highest dose level from the recently completed Phase 1 trial, which is 2.0 µCi/kg/fractionated dose. At this dose level and in patients with low PB burden we saw a 100% and 50% response rate in the two trials that have been conducted with Actimab-A. In regards to safety, no Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) as a result of Actimab-A were observed and Maximum Tolerable Dose (MTD) was not reached.

Actimab-A targets CD33, a marker expressed on 90% of AML cells and a target that is of significant interest for a number large pharmaceutical and biotech companies. The results from our Phase 1 trials, especially in patients with low PB burden, have shown very high complete response rates in some of the most difficult to treat patients. Also, in addition to the excellent tolerability profile of Actimab-A, given that it is administered via two 15-minute injections given one week apart we believe Actimab-A will be advantageous to patients for many reasons. Collectively, we believe the attributes of Actimab-A will establish this drug candidate as a best in class CD33 targeted therapy for patients with AML. We are excited to reach the interim analysis from our current Phase 2 clinical trial as we believe this data could serve as the basis for a pivotal Phase 3 trial that could begin in the near future. A safe and effective therapy for elderly patients with AML is considered the “holy grail” and we are striving to establish Actimab-A as just that, as quickly as possible.

Pipeline Expansion, Regulatory, IP Activity Expected To Further Drive Value

Beyond the development and progress of our clinical programs we have taken many steps to strengthen Actinium as a company. In 2016 we achieved expansion of our intellectual property portfolio, key regulatory designations for our drug candidates and strong additions to our team. These accomplishments in 2016 will allow us to execute our plan and have strengthened the base upon which we will further build this company.

We expect progress on these and other fronts to continue. We will continue to add to our intellectual property portfolio in a strategic manner to strengthen our leadership position in the field of radioimmunotherapy. We plan to also pursue additional regulatory designations in the U.S., EU and other jurisdictions to maximize our development efforts. We will also begin to introduce new clinical programs in 2017 and additional candidates to come in 2018. With our team now comprised of 25, largely senior, industry professionals we have great confidence in our ability to execute on our current clinical trials while embarking on additional trials in the near future. We will continue to expand our team in key areas of clinical development, clinical research, regulatory affairs and supply chain management in order to execute on milestones in an efficient and effective manner to maximize shareholder value.

Balance Sheet Strength Supports Value Creation

With a September 30, 2016 proforma cash balance of approximately $25 million inclusive of our recent $10 million raise, our balance sheet remains capable of supporting the anticipated clinical data readouts for the Phase 3 SIERRA trial and the Phase 2 Actimab-A trial in 2017. We believe the capital on hand will enable us to drive shareholder value from these clinical results as well as other planned drug development activity.

2017 to Extend Company Transformation Driven By Clinical Data from Iomab-B and Actimab-A

Biotech is a risky business but given the data sets we have on hand, we believe both our clinical assets are derisked considerably and that their path forward is extremely promising and can result in real value creation for patients and our shareholders. In 2016, we delivered on our promise to transform the company profile from a clinical development perspective by initiating the Phase 3 SIERRA trial for Iomab-B and the Phase 2 trial for Actimab-A. Our entire team is now laser focused on generating data from these trials in 2017 and beyond and also executing on the following objectives:

• Efficiently execute on the pivotal Phase 3 SIERRA trial to reach the first independent Data Monitoring Committee (DMC) report 25% of enrollment by 1H:2017, 50% and 75% in 2H:2017 and maintain the pace of enrollment to enable topline results the following year

• Report interim data from Phase 2 trial for Actimab-A by mid-2017 and explore the regulatory pathway for a pivotal trial based on this data

• Complete enrollment of the Phase 2 trial by end of 2017 and report top line data results

• Actively explore strategic partnership, licensing and collaborations as appropriate

• Continue to expand our clinical development, regulatory and supply chain teams to support our continued growth and begin to explore early commercial efforts

• Initiate additional clinical programs with the first trial expected to begin in 2017 and the second trial expected to begin in 2018

The Actinium team is intensely committed to the completion and success of the clinical trials for Iomab-B and Actimab-A which would pave the way for regulatory approvals and establish Actinium as a prominent biotechnology company. We are privileged to work on developing such promising therapies and we have great excitement for our future. We look forward to keeping you apprised of the many exciting developments that we expect to occur in 2017 and beyond.

Please send in your completed proxy form as soon as possible as indicated in the proxy materials. We hope that you will continue to be supportive of our goals of delivering breakthrough therapies to cancer patients who do not have treatment options and in the process enhance value to the company and its shareholders.

We thank you, our loyal shareholder for your patience and support.

Sincerely,

Sandesh Seth

Executive Chairman

PROXY STATEMENT

FOR

ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

GENERAL

The enclosed proxy is solicited on behalf of the Board of Directors of Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for use at our annual meeting of stockholders to be held at The Garden City Hotel, 45 Seventh St, Garden City, NY 11530 on December 21, 2016 at 9:30 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Voting materials, including this proxy statement and proxy card, are expected to be first delivered to all or our stockholders on or about November 18, 2016.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Following are some commonly asked questions raised by our stockholders and answers to each of those questions.

What may I vote on at the annual meeting?

At the annual meeting, stockholders will consider and vote upon the following matters:

• Proposal 2: To ratify the appointment of GBH CPAs, PC as our independent registered public accounting firm; and

• Proposal 3: To approve an amendment to the Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. 2013 Amended and Restated Stock Plan, as amended, to increase the shares of our common stock available for issuance thereunder by 3.5 million shares from 9,250,000 to 12,750,000, to support planned hiring efforts as the company grows; and

• Proposal 4: To conduct a non-binding advisory vote on our 2015 executive compensation; and

• To consider and act upon any other business as may properly come before the annual meeting or any adjournments thereof.

How does the Board of Directors recommend that I vote on the proposals?

Our Board unanimously recommends that the stockholders vote “FOR” all proposals being put before our stockholders at the Meeting.

How do I vote?

Whether you plan to attend the annual meeting or not, we urge you to vote by proxy. If you vote by proxy, the individuals named on the proxy card applicable to your class of stock, or your “proxies,” will vote your shares in the manner you indicate. You may specify whether your shares: should be voted for or withheld for the nominee for director; and should be voted for, against or abstained with respect to the ratification of the appointment of the Company’s independent registered public accounts. Voting by proxy will not affect your right to attend the annual meeting. If your shares are registered directly in your name through our transfer agent, Action Stock Transfer Corporation, or you have stock certificates registered in your name, you may submit a proxy to vote:

• By Internet or by telephone. Follow the instructions attached to the proxy card to submit a proxy to vote by Internet or telephone.

• By mail. If you received one or more proxy cards by mail, you can vote by mail by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card applicable to your class of stock in the

enclosed postage prepaid envelope. Your proxy will be voted in accordance with your instructions. If you sign the proxy card but do not specify how you want your shares voted, they will be voted as recommended by our Board of Directors.

• In person at the meeting. If you attend the annual meeting, you may deliver your completed proxy card in person or you may vote by completing a ballot, which will be available at the annual meeting. You are required to register in advance of the annual meeting if you plan to attend the annual meeting in person. If you wish to register in advance of the annual meeting, please contact our investor relations office by no later than December 14, 2016, by e-mail to soloughlin@actiniumpharma.com, mail to Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 275 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, New York 10016, or telephone at (646) 677-3875.

Telephone and Internet voting facilities for all stockholders of record will be available 24-hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m., Eastern Standard Time, on December 20, 2016.

If your shares are held in “street name” (held in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee who is the holder of record), you must provide the bank, broker or other nominee with instructions on how to vote your shares and can do so as follows:

• By Internet or by telephone. Follow the instructions you receive from the record holder to vote by Internet or telephone.

• By mail. You should receive instructions from the record holder explaining how to vote your shares.

• In person at the meeting. Contact the broker, bank or other nominee who holds your shares to obtain a broker’s proxy card and bring it with you to the annual meeting. You will not be able to vote at the annual meeting unless you have a proxy card from your broker, bank or other nominee.

What happens if additional matters are presented at the annual meeting?

Other than the election of directors, the ratification of the appointment of our auditor, the amendment of our stock plan to increase the number of shares that may be granted under the plan, and the advisory vote to approve the compensation of the executive officers, we are not aware of any other business to be acted upon at the annual meeting. If you grant a proxy, the person named as proxy holder, Sandesh Seth, our Executive Chairman will have the discretion to vote your shares on any additional matters properly presented for a vote at the annual meeting.

What happens if I do not give specific voting instructions?

If you hold shares in your name and you sign and return a proxy card without giving specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board of Directors on all matters and as the proxy holder may determine in her discretion with respect to any other matters properly presented for a vote before the annual meeting. If you hold your shares through a stockbroker, bank or other nominee and you do not provide instructions on how to vote, your stockbroker or other nominee may exercise their discretionary voting power with respect to certain proposals that are considered as “routine” matters. For example, Proposal 2 — ratification of the appointment of GBH CPAs, PC as our independent registered public accounting firm is commonly considered as a routine matter, and thus your stockbroker, bank or other nominee may exercise their discretionary voting power with respect to Proposal 2. If the organization that holds your shares does not receive instructions from you on how to vote your shares on a non-routine matter, the organization that holds your shares will inform us that it does not have the authority to vote on these matters with respect to your shares. This is generally referred to as a “broker non-vote.” When the vote is tabulated for any particular matter, broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but will not otherwise be counted. In the absence of specific instructions from you, your broker does not have discretionary authority to vote your shares with respect to Proposal 1 — the election of Kaushik J. Dave as a member to our Board of Directors, Proposal 3 — the increase in shares of our stock plan, and Proposal 4 — a non-binding advisory vote on our 2015 executive compensation. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to the organization that holds your shares by carefully following the instructions provided in the notice.

What is the quorum requirement for the annual meeting?

On November 2, 2016, the Record Date for determining which stockholders are entitled to vote, there were 55,747,108 shares of our common stock outstanding which is our only class of voting securities. Each share of common stock entitles the holder to one vote on matters submitted to a vote of our stockholders. Thirty Four percent (34%) of our outstanding common shares as of the Record Date must be present at the annual meeting (in person or represented by proxy) in order to hold the meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum. Your shares will be counted for purposes of determining if there is a quorum, even if you wish to abstain from voting on some or all matters introduced at the annual meeting, if you are present and vote in person at the meeting or have properly submitted a proxy card or voted by fax, by phone or by using the Internet.

How can I change my vote after I return my proxy card?

You may revoke your proxy and change your vote at any time before the final vote at the annual meeting. You may do this by signing a new proxy card with a later date, by voting on a later date by using the Internet (only your latest Internet proxy submitted prior to the annual meeting will be counted), or by attending the annual meeting and voting in person. However, your attendance at the annual meeting will not automatically revoke your proxy unless you vote at the annual meeting or specifically request in writing that your prior proxy be revoked.

Is my vote confidential?

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 our company or to third parties, except:

• as necessary to meet applicable legal requirements;

• to allow for the tabulation of votes and certification of the vote; and

• to facilitate a successful proxy solicitation.

Any written comments that a stockholder might include on the proxy card will be forwarded to our management.

Where can I find the voting results of the annual meeting?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the annual meeting. The final voting results will be tallied by our Inspector of Elections and reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K which we will file with the SEC within four business days of the date of the annual meeting.

How can I obtain a separate set of voting materials?

To reduce the expense of delivering duplicate voting materials to our stockholders who may have more than one Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. stock account, we are delivering only one Notice to certain stockholders who share an address, unless otherwise requested. If you share an address with another stockholder and have received only one Notice, you may write or call us to request to receive a separate Notice. Similarly, if you share an address with another stockholder and have received multiple copies of the Notice, you may write or call us at the address and phone number below to request delivery of a single copy of this Notice. For future annual meetings, you may request separate Notices, or request that we send only one Notice to you if you are receiving multiple copies, by writing or calling us at:

Tel: (646) 677-3875

Who pays for the cost of this proxy solicitation?

We will pay the costs of the solicitation of proxies. We may also reimburse brokerage firms and other persons representing beneficial owners of shares for expenses incurred in forwarding the voting materials to their customers

who are beneficial owners and obtaining their voting instructions. In addition to soliciting proxies by mail, our board members, officers and employees may solicit proxies on our behalf, without additional compensation, personally, electronically or by telephone.

How can I obtain a copy of Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.’s 2015 Annual Report on Form 10-K?

This proxy statement and our 2015 annual report to stockholders are available for viewing, printing and downloading at www.proxyvote.com. To view these materials, please have your 12-digit control number(s) available that appears on your Notice or proxy card. On this website, you can also elect to receive future distributions of our proxy statements and annual reports to stockholders by electronic delivery.

Additionally, you can find a copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes our financial statements, for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 on the website of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, at www.sec.gov, or in the “All SEC Filings” section of the “Investors” section of our website at www.actiniumpharma.com. You may also obtain a printed copy of our Annual Report on Form 10-K including our financial statements, free of charge, from us by sending a written request to: Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 275 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10016, attention: Secretary.

What is the voting requirement to elect directors?

Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. “Plurality” means that the nominees receiving the greatest number of affirmative votes will be elected as directors, up to the number of directors to be chosen at the meeting. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the election of directors because brokers do not have discretion to cast votes on this proposal without instruction from the beneficial owner of the shares.

What is the voting requirement to approve the other three proposals?

The proposal to ratify the appointment of GBH CPAs, PC as our independent registered public accounting firm will be approved if there is a quorum and the votes cast “FOR” the proposal exceeds those cast against the proposal. The proposal to approve an amendment to our 2013 stock plan to increase the shares authorized under the plan will be approved if there is a quorum and the votes cast “FOR” the proposal exceeds those cast against the proposal. The advisory vote to approve the non-binding advisory vote on our 2015 executive compensation will be approved if there is a quorum and the votes cast “FOR” the proposal exceeds those cast against the proposal.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares that are present, or represented and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting. Abstentions will not be counted in determining the number of votes cast in connection with any matter presented at the annual meeting. Broker non-votes will not be counted as a vote cast on any matter presented at the annual meeting.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

The Board of Directors oversees our business affairs and monitors the performance of management. In accordance with our corporate governance principles, the Board of Directors does not involve itself in day-to-day operations. The directors keep themselves informed through discussions with the Executive Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, other key executives, and by reading the reports and other materials that we send them and by participating in Board of Directors and committee meetings. Our directors hold office until their successors have been elected and duly qualified unless the director resigns or by reason of death or other cause is unable to serve in the capacity of director. Biographical information about our directors is provided in “Election of Directors — Proposal No. 1” on page 34.

Term of Office

Our directors are divided into three classes, designated Class I, Class II and Class III. Class I shall consists of two directors, Class II shall consist of two directors, and Class III consists of the Chief Executive Officer.

The term of each director is set forth below or until their successors are duly elected:

Director	Class	Term (from 2016 Annual Meeting)
Kaushik Dave	Class III	36 months
David Nicholson	Class I	12 months
Sandesh Seth	Class II	24 months
Sergio Traversa	Class II	24 months
Richard I. Steinhart	Class I	12 months

Notwithstanding the foregoing, each director shall serve until his successor is duly elected and qualified, or until his or her retirement, death, resignation or removal. In order to implement a classified board of directors, Class I shall serve a 12 month term from the date of the 2016 Annual Shareholders Meeting; Class II shall serve a 24 month term from the date of the 2016 Annual Shareholders Meeting; and Class III shall serve a 36 month term from the date the date of the 2016 Annual Shareholders Meeting. Directors elected at each annual meeting are elected for a 3 year term.

Director Independence

We use the definition of “independence” of the NYSE MKT to make this determination. We are listed on the NYSE MKT under the symbol “ATNM”. NYSE MKT corporate governance rule Sec. 803(A)(2) provides that an “independent director” means a person other than an executive officer or employee of the company. No director qualifies as independent unless the issuer’s board of directors affirmatively determines that the director does not have a relationship that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. The following is a non-exclusive list of persons who shall not be considered independent under NYSE MKT rules:

• a director who is, or during the past three years was, employed by the company, other than prior employment as an interim executive officer (provided the interim employment did not last longer than one year);

• a director who accepted or has an immediate family member who accepted any compensation from the company in excess of $120,000 during any period of twelve consecutive months within the three years preceding the determination of independence, other than the following:

(i) compensation for board or board committee service;

(ii) compensation paid to an immediate family member who is an employee (other than an executive officer) of the company,

(iii) compensation received for former service as an interim executive officer (provided the interim employment did not last longer than one year); or

(iv) benefits under a tax-qualified retirement plan, or non-discretionary compensation;

• a director who is an immediate family member of an individual who is, or at any time during the past three years was, employed by the company as an executive officer;

• a director who is, or has an immediate family member who is, a partner in, or a controlling shareholder or an executive officer of, any organization to which the company made, or from which the company received, payments (other than those arising solely from investments in the company’s securities or payments under non-discretionary charitable contribution matching programs) that exceed 5% of the organization’s consolidated gross revenues for that year, or $200,000, whichever is more, in any of the most recent three fiscal years;

• a director who is, or has an immediate family member who is, employed as an executive officer of another entity where at any time during the most recent three fiscal years any of the issuer’s executive officers serve on the compensation committee of such other entity; or

• a director who is, or has an immediate family member who is, a current partner of the company’s outside auditor, or was a partner or employee of the company’s outside auditor who worked on the company’s audit at any time during any of the past three years.

Since our common stock is listed on the NYSE MKT exchange, we are required to meet the exchanges independence requirements. Under the above-mentioned NYSE MKT director independence rules, David Nicholson, Richard I. Steinhart and Sergio Traversa are the only independent directors of the Company.

Executive Chairman

In August 2014, our Board created the office of Executive Chairman of the Company and appointed Sandesh Seth, our Chairman of the Board, as Executive Chairman of our Company.

As Executive Chairman of our Company, Mr. Seth acts as an officer and consultant and, as such, performs his duties subject in all instances to the oversight of our board of directors and to the power of our board of directors to approve all applicable corporation actions (which powers shall not be vested in the office of Executive Chairman). The Executive Chairman is not an “executive officer” (as defined in SEC Rule 3b-7) of our Company as the role of the Executive Chairman by design is not an officer who performs a policy making function for our Company. Rather, the Executive Chairman serves as a conduit between our board and our executive management team and is available to act as an advisor and consultant to our executive management team, who are responsible for development and implementation of our corporate policies under the supervision of our Executive Chairman.

Subject to such other roles, duties and projects as may (consistent with the terms and provisions of our Amended and Restated Bylaws and the resolutions of our board that formed the office of Executive Chairman) be assigned by our board to the Executive Chairman, the primary responsibilities of the Executive Chairman are as follows:

(i) Chair annual and special Board meetings and annual stockholder meetings and, subject to availability, attend meetings of the committees of the Board;

(ii) Provide overall Board leadership and establish guiding principles for the Board;

(iii) Manage the affairs of the Board and facilitate Board action in such a way that strategic and policy decisions are fully discussed, debated and decided by the Board;

(iv) In cooperation with the President, and Chief Executive Officer, and other Company officers as appropriate or selected by the Executive Chairman/Board, ensure that our strategic orientation is defined and communicated to the Board for its approval and that all material issues are dealt with by the Board in a timely manner;

(v) Ensure that the Board has efficient communication channels regarding all material issues concerning the business and see to it that directors are informed about these issues;

(vi) Act as a representative of the Board and consult with Board members outside the regularly scheduled meetings of the Board and of Board committees;

(vii) Meet and confer as often as required with our President, and Chief Executive Officer and executive management to ensure that there is efficient communication between the Executive Chairman, the President, and Chief Executive Officer, other executive management and Board members;

(viii) Offer advice and consultation to the President, and Chief Executive Officer and executive management on the overall management of the business and affairs of our company as well as specific matters upon the request of the President, and Chief Executive Officer and or the Board;

(ix) In consultation and partnership with the President, and Chief Executive Officer, the Executive Chairman may act as our representative with business partners of our company; and

(x) At the request of the Board or the President, and Chief Executive Officer the Executive Chairman may be placed in charge of special corporate strategic initiatives or projects.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board has a policy that calls for the role of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to be separate, as it believes that the most effective leadership structure for us at this time is not to have these roles combined. Dr. Kaushik J. Dave serves as our Chief Executive Officer and Sandesh Seth is our Chairman of the Board who serves as the Executive Chairman. We believe this structure of having a separate CEO and Chairman provides proper oversight of our operations.

Board of Directors Meetings and Attendance

During the fiscal year 2015, the Board of Directors held 25 meetings. Each member of our Board was present at ninety-six (96%) percent or more of the Board meetings held; except that one director attended 56% of the Board meetings held. One action was approved by unanimous written consent. It is our policy that directors should make every effort to attend the annual meeting of stockholders, and each of our directors: Sandesh Seth, Kaushik Dave, David Nicholson, Richard I. Steinhart and Sergio Traversa, attended the annual meeting of stockholders in 2015.

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer and principal financial and accounting officer. A copy of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available on the Investor section of our website at www.actiniumpharma.com. We will post on our website any amendment to our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics or waivers of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for directors and executive officers.

Complaints Regarding Accounting Matters

The Audit Committee has established procedures for:

• the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls, or auditing matters; and

• the confidential, anonymous submission by our employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

Communications with Directors

The Board of Directors has approved procedures for stockholders to send communications to individual directors or the non-employee directors as a group. Written correspondence should be addressed to the director or directors in care of Sandesh Seth, Executive Chairman of Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 275 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York, NY 10016. Correspondence received that is addressed to the non-employee directors will be reviewed by our Executive Chairman or his designee, who will regularly forward to the non-employee directors a summary of all such correspondence and copies of all correspondence that, in the opinion of our Executive Chairman, deals with the functions of the Board of Directors or committees thereof or that the corporate secretary otherwise determines requires their attention. Directors may at any time review a log of all correspondence received by Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. that is addressed to the non-employee members of the Board of Directors and request copies of any such correspondence. You may also contact individual directors by calling our principal executive offices at (646) 677-3875.

Legal Proceedings

There are no legal proceedings to which any director, director nominee, officer or affiliate of our company, any owner of record or beneficially of more than 5% of common stock, or any associate of any such director, officer, affiliate of our company or security holder that is a party adverse to our company or any of our subsidiaries or has a material interest adverse to us.

Compliance With Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act

Based solely upon a review of copies of such forms filed on Forms 3, 4, and 5, and amendments thereto furnished to us we believe that as of the date of this proxy, our executive officers, directors and greater than 10 percent beneficial owners have complied on a timely basis with all Section 16(a) filing requirements.

BOARD COMMITTEES

Audit Committee

Our audit committee, which currently consists of three directors, provides assistance to our board in fulfilling its legal and fiduciary obligations with respect to matters involving the accounting, financial reporting, internal control and compliance functions of the company. Our audit committee employs an independent registered public accounting firm to audit the financial statements of the company and perform other assigned duties. Further, our audit committee provides general oversight with respect to the accounting principles employed in financial reporting and the adequacy of our internal controls. In discharging its responsibilities, our audit committee may rely on the reports, findings and representations of the company’s auditors, legal counsel, and responsible officers. Our board has determined that all members of the audit committee are financially literate within the meaning of SEC rules and under the current listing standards of the NYSE MKT. Richard I. Steinhart is the chairman of the audit committee.

Compensation Committee

Our compensation committee, which currently consists of three directors, establishes executive compensation policies consistent with the company’s objectives and stockholder interests. Our compensation committee also reviews the performance of our executive officers and establishes, adjusts and awards compensation, including incentive-based compensation, as more fully discussed below. In addition, our compensation committee generally is responsible for:

• establishing and periodically reviewing our compensation philosophy and the adequacy of compensation plans and programs for our directors, executive officers and other employees;

• overseeing our compensation plans, including the establishment of performance goals under the company’s incentive compensation arrangements and the review of performance against those goals in determining incentive award payouts;

• overseeing our executive employment contracts, special retirement benefits, severance, change in control arrangements and/or similar plans;

• acting as administrator of any company stock option plans; and

• overseeing the outside consultant, if any, engaged by the compensation committee.

Our compensation committee periodically reviews the compensation paid to our non-employee directors and the principles upon which their compensation is determined. The compensation committee also periodically reports to the board on how our non-employee director compensation practices compare with those of other similarly situated public corporations and, if the compensation committee deems it appropriate, recommends changes to our director compensation practices to our board for approval.

Outside consulting firms retained by our compensation committee and management also will, if requested, provide assistance to the compensation committee in making its compensation-related decisions.

Corporate Governance Committee

Corporate Governance Committee, which currently consists of three directors, monitors our corporate governance system.

Nomination of Directors

Board of Director nominations are selected, or recommended for the Board’s selection, by a majority of the independent directors.

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Report of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors

The Audit Committee provides assistance to the Board of Directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities relating to our corporate accounting and reporting practices toward assurance of the quality and integrity of our consolidated financial statements. The purpose of the Audit Committee is to serve as an independent and objective party to monitor our financial reporting process and internal control system; oversee, review and appraise the audit activities of our independent registered public accounting firm and internal auditing function, maintain complete, objective and open communication between the Board of Directors, the independent accountants, financial management and the internal audit function.

Our independent registered public accounting firm reports directly to the Audit Committee and the Audit Committee is solely responsible to appoint or replace our independent registered public accounting firm and to assure its independence and to provide oversight and supervision thereof. The Audit Committee determines compensation of the independent registered public accounting firm and has established a policy for approval of non-audit related engagements awarded to the independent registered public accounting firm. Such engagements must not impair the independence of the registered public accounting firm with respect to our company as prescribed by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002; thus payment amounts are limited and non-audit related engagements must be approved in advance by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee determines the extent of funding that we must provide to the Audit Committee to carry out its duties and has determined that such amounts were sufficient in 2014.

With respect to the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, in addition to its other work, the Audit Committee:

• Reviewed and discussed with management our audited consolidated financial statements as of December 31, 2014 and for the year then ended; and

• Discussed with GBH CPAs, PC the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, “Communication with Audit Committees,” as amended, with respect to its review of the findings of the independent registered public accounting firm during its examination of our financial statements.

The Audit Committee recommended, based on the review and discussion summarized above, that the Board of Directors include the 2015 audited consolidated financial statements in the 2015 Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 for filing with the SEC.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis

The Compensation Committee of our board of directors has the responsibility to review, determine and approve the compensation for our executive officers. Further, the Compensation Committee oversees our overall compensation strategy, including compensation policies, plans and programs that cover all employees. In 2013, our Stockholders voted on an advisory basis with respect to our compensation program for named executive officers. Of the votes cast (excluding abstentions and broker non-votes), 94.1% were cast in support of the program. In light of this, in reviewing the executive compensation program for 2015, the Compensation Committee decided to retain the general overall program design, which ties a significant portion of the executives’ pay closely with our performance. In the future, the Compensation Committee will continue to consider the executive compensation program in light of changing circumstances and Stockholder feedback.

We currently employ two executive officers, each of whom serves as a “Named Executive Officer” (or NEO) for purposes of SEC reporting: (1) Kaushik J. Dave., our Chief Executive Officer (who we refer to in this Compensation Discussion and Analysis as our CEO); and (2) Dragan Cicic, our Chief Scientific Officer.

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis sets forth a discussion of the compensation for our NEOs as well as a discussion of our philosophies underlying the compensation for our NEOs and our employees generally.

Objectives of Our Compensation Program

The Compensation Committee’s philosophy seeks to align the interests of our stockholders, officers and employees by tying compensation to individual and company performance, both directly in the form of salary or annual cash incentive payments, and indirectly in the form of equity awards. The objectives of our compensation program enhance our ability to:

• attract and retain qualified and talented individuals; and

• provide reasonable and appropriate incentives and rewards to our team for building long-term value within our company, in each case in a manner comparable to companies similar to ours.

In addition, we strive to be competitive with other similarly situated companies in our industry. The process of developing pharmaceutical products and bringing those products to market is a long-term proposition and outcomes may not be measurable for several years. Therefore, in order to build long-term value for our company and its stockholders, and in order to achieve our business objectives, we believe that we must compensate our officers and employees in a competitive and fair manner that reflects current company activities but also reflects contributions to building long-term value.

We utilize the services of StreeterWyatt Governance LLC to review compensation programs of peer companies in order to assist the Compensation Committee in determining the compensation levels for our NEOs, as well as for other employees of our company. StreeterWyatt is a recognized independent consulting company and services clients throughout the United States.

The companies that comprise our peer group are selected and reviewed no less frequently than biennially. The current peer group used to evaluate compensation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015 includes the following companies:

Elements of Our Compensation Program and Why We Chose Each

Main Compensation Components

Our company-wide compensation program, including for our NEOs, is broken down into three main components: base salary, performance cash bonuses and potential long-term compensation in the form of stock options or restricted stock awards. We believe these three components constitute the minimum essential elements of a competitive compensation package in our industry.

Salary

Base salary is used to recognize the experience, skills, knowledge and responsibilities required of our NEOs as well as recognizing the competitive nature of the biopharmaceutical industry. This is determined partially by evaluating our peer companies as well as the degree of responsibility and experience levels of our NEOs and their overall contributions to our company. Base salary is one component of the compensation package for NEOs; the other components being cash bonuses, annual equity grants, and company benefit programs. Base salary is determined in advance whereas the other components of compensation are awarded in varying degrees following an assessment of the performance of a NEO. This approach to compensation reflects the philosophy of our board of directors and its Compensation Committee to emphasize and reward, on an annual basis, performance levels achieved by our NEOs.

Performance Bonus Plan

We have a performance bonus plan under which bonuses are paid to our NEOs based on achievement of company performance goals and objectives established by the Compensation Committee and/or our board of directors as well as on individual performance. The bonus program is discretionary and is intended to: (i) strengthen the connection between individual compensation and our company’s achievements; (ii) encourage teamwork among all disciplines within our company; (iii) reinforce our pay-for-performance philosophy by awarding higher bonuses to higher performing employees; and (iv) help ensure that our cash compensation is competitive. Depending on the cash position of the company, the Compensation Committee and our board of directors have the discretion to not pay cash bonuses in order that we may conserve cash and support ongoing development programs and commercialization efforts. Regardless of our cash position, we consistently grant annual merit-based stock options to continue incentivizing both our senior management and our employees.

Based on their employment agreements, each NEO is assigned a target payout under the performance bonus plan, expressed as a percentage of base salary for the year. Actual payouts under the performance bonus plan are based on the achievement of corporate performance goals and an assessment of individual performance, each of which is separately weighted as a component of such officer’s target payout. For the NEOs, the corporate goals receive the highest weighting in order to ensure that the bonus system for our management team is closely tied to our corporate performance. Each employee also has specific individual goals and objectives as well that are tied to the overall corporate goals. For employees, mid-year and end-of-year progress is reviewed with the employees’ managers.

Equity Incentive Compensation

We view long-term compensation, currently in the form of stock options and restricted stock generally vesting in annual increments over four years, as a tool to align the interests of our NEOs and employees generally with the creation of stockholder value, to motivate our employees to achieve and exceed corporate and individual objectives and to encourage them to remain employed by the company. While cash compensation is a significant component of

employees’ overall compensation, the Compensation Committee and our board of directors (as well as our NEOs) believe that the driving force of any employee working in a small biotechnology company should be strong equity participation. We believe that this not only creates the potential for substantial longer term corporate value but also serves to motivate employees and retain their loyalty and commitment with appropriate personal compensation.

Other Compensation

In addition to the main components of compensation outlined above, we also provide contractual severance and/or change in control benefits to our Executive Chairman and CEO. The change in control benefits for all applicable persons have a “double trigger.” A double-trigger means that the executive officers will receive the change in control benefits described in the agreements only if there is both (1) a Change in Control of our company (as defined in the agreements) and (2) a termination by us of the applicable person’s employment “without cause” or a resignation by the applicable persons for “good reason” (as defined in the agreements) within a specified time period prior to or following the Change in Control. We believe this double trigger requirement creates the potential to maximize stockholder value because it prevents an unintended windfall to management as no benefits are triggered solely in the event of a Change in Control while providing appropriate incentives to act in furtherance of a change in control that may be in the best interests of the stockholders. We believe these severance or change in control benefits are important elements of our compensation program that assist us in retaining talented individuals at the executive and senior managerial levels and that these arrangements help to promote stability and continuity of our executives and senior management team. Further, we believe that the interests of our stockholders will be best served if the interests of these members of our management are aligned with theirs. We believe that providing change in control benefits lessens or eliminates any potential reluctance of members of our management to pursue potential change in control transactions that may be in the best interests of the stockholders. We also believe that it is important to provide severance benefits to members of our management, to promote stability and focus on the job at hand.

We also provide benefits to the executive officers that are generally available to all regular full-time employees of our company, including our medical and dental insurance, and a 401(k) plan. At this time, we do not provide any perquisites to any of our NEOs. Further, we do not have deferred compensation plans, pension arrangements or post-retirement health coverage for our executive officers or employees. All of our employees not specifically under contract are “at-will” employees, which means that their employment can be terminated at any time for any reason by either us or the employee. Our Executive Chairman and CEO have employment agreements that provide lump sum compensation in the event of their termination without cause or, under certain circumstances, upon a Change of Control.

Determination of Compensation Amounts

A number of factors impact the determination of compensation amounts for our NEOs, including the individual’s role in the company and individual performance, length of service with the company, competition for talent, individual compensation package, assessments of internal pay equity and industry data. Stock price performance has generally not been a factor in determining annual compensation because the price of our common stock is subject to a variety of factors outside of our control.

Industry Survey Data

In collaboration with StreeterWyatt, we establish and maintain a list of peer companies to best assure ourselves that we are compensating our executives on a fair and reasonable basis, as set forth above under the heading “Objectives of our Compensation Program.” We also utilize StreetWyatt-prepared data for below-executive level personnel, which data focuses on similarly-sized bio-tech companies. The availability of peer data is used by the Compensation Committee strictly as a guide in determining compensation levels with regard to salaries, cash bonuses and performance related annual equity grants to all employees. However, the availability of this data does not imply that the Compensation Committee is under any obligation to exactly follow peer companies in compensation matters.

Determination of Base Salaries

As a guideline for NEO base salary, we perform formal benchmarks against respective comparable positions in our established peer group. We adjust salaries based on our assessment of our NEOs’ levels of responsibility, experience, overall compensation structure and individual performance. The Compensation Committee is not obliged to raise

salaries purely on the availability of data. Merit-based increases to salaries of executive officers are based on our assessment of individual performance and the relationship to applicable salary ranges. Cost of living adjustments may also be a part of that assessment.

Performance Bonus Plan

Concurrently with the beginning of each calendar year, preliminary corporate goals that reflect our business priorities for the coming year are prepared by the CEO with input from the other executive officers. These goals are weighted by relative importance. The draft goals and proposed weightings are presented to the Compensation Committee and the Board and discussed, revised as necessary, and then approved by our board of directors. The Compensation Committee then reviews the final goals and their weightings to determine and confirm their appropriateness for use as performance measurements for purposes of the bonus program. The goals and/or weightings may be re-visited during the year and potentially restated in the event of significant changes in corporate strategy or the occurrence of significant corporate events. Following the agreement of our board of directors on the corporate objectives, the goals are then shared with all employees in a formal meeting(s), and are reviewed periodically throughout the year.

Determination of Equity Incentive Compensation

To assist us in assessing the reasonableness of our equity grant amounts, we have reviewed StreeterWyatt supplied information. Such information included equity data from a cross-section of similar companies in our industry.

Equity Grant Practices

All stock options and/or restricted stock granted to the NEOs and other executives are approved by the Compensation Committee. Exercise prices for options are set at the closing price of our common stock on the date of grant. Grants are generally made: (i) on the employee’s start date and (ii) at board of director meetings held each February and following annual performance reviews. However, grants have been made at other times during the year. The size of year-end grants for each NEO is assessed against our internal equity guidelines. Current market conditions for grants for comparable positions and internal equity may also be assessed. Also, grants may be made in connection with promotions or job related changes in responsibilities. In addition, on occasion, the Compensation Committee may make additional special awards for extraordinary individual or company performance.

Compensation Setting Process

At the February meetings of our board of directors and the Compensation Committee, overall corporate performance and relative achievement of the corporate goals for the prior year are assessed. The relative achievement of each goal is assessed and quantified and the summation of the individual components results in a corporate goal rating, expressed as percentages. The Compensation Committee then approves the final disbursement of salary increases, cash bonuses and option or restricted stock grants.

The Compensation Committee looks to the CEO’s performance assessments of the other NEOs and his recommendations regarding a performance rating for each, as well as input from the other members of our board of directors. These recommendations may be adjusted by the Compensation Committee prior to finalization. For the CEO, the Compensation Committee evaluates his performance, taking into consideration input from the other members of our board of directors, and considers the achievement of overall corporate objectives by both the CEO specifically and the company generally. The CEO is not present during the Compensation Committee’s deliberations regarding his compensation.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to directly engage, at our company’s expense, any compensation consultants or other advisors (such as StreeterWyatt) that it deems necessary to determine the amount and form of employee, executive and director compensation. In determining the amount and form of employee, executive and director compensation, the Compensation Committee has reviewed and discussed historical salary information as well as salaries for similar positions at comparable companies. However the availability of this data does not imply that the Compensation Committee is under any obligation to exactly follow peer companies’ compensation practices.

We paid consultant fees to StreeterWyatt of $20,000. NEOs may have indirect input in the compensation results for other executive officers by virtue of their participation in the performance review and feedback process for the other executive officers.

the conversion of convertible stock or debt, and the exercise of any similar right to acquire such Common Stock (the “Outstanding Company Common Stock”) or (B) the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors (the “Outstanding Company Voting Securities”); provided, however, that for purposes of this Plan, the following acquisitions shall not constitute a Change of Control: (I) any acquisition by the Company or any Affiliate, (II) any acquisition by any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Affiliate, (III) any acquisition which complies with clauses, (A), (B) and (C) of subsection (v) of this definition, or (IV) in respect of an Award held by a particular Participant, any acquisition by the Participant or any group of persons including the Participant (or any entity controlled by the Participant or any group of persons including the Participant); or

(v) the consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, statutory share exchange or similar form of corporate transaction involving the Company that requires the approval of the Company’s shareholders, whether for such transaction or the issuance of securities in the transaction (a “Business Combination”), unless immediately following such Business Combination: (A) more than 50% of the total voting power of (I) the entity resulting from such Business Combination (the “Surviving Company”), or (II) if applicable, the ultimate parent entity that directly or indirectly has beneficial ownership of sufficient voting securities eligible to elect a majority of the members of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Surviving Company (the “Parent Company”), is represented by the Outstanding Company Voting Securities that were outstanding immediately prior to such Business Combination (or, if applicable, is represented by shares into which the Outstanding Company Voting Securities were converted pursuant to such Business Combination), and such voting power among the holders thereof is in substantially the same proportion as the voting power of the Outstanding Company Voting Securities among the holders thereof immediately prior to the Business Combination; (B) no Person (other than any employee benefit plan sponsored or maintained by the Surviving Company or the Parent Company) is or becomes the Beneficial Owner, directly or indirectly, of 50% or more of the total voting power of the outstanding voting securities eligible to elect members of the board of directors of the Parent Company (or the analogous governing body) (or, if there is no Parent Company, the Surviving Company); and (C) at least a majority of the members of the board of directors (or the analogous governing body) of the Parent Company (or, if there is no Parent Company, the Surviving Company) following the consummation of the Business Combination were Board members at the time of the Board’s approval of the execution of the initial agreement providing for such Business Combination

PROPOSAL 3

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT OF THE 2013 AMENDED AND RESTATED STOCK PLAN, AS AMENDED, TO INCREASE THE NUMBER OF SHARES OF COMMON STOCK AUTHORIZED FOR ISSUANCE UNDER THE PLAN By 3.5 MILLION SHARES FROM 9,250,000 TO 12,750,000 TO SUPPORT PLANNED HIRING EFFORTS AS THE COMPANY GROWS

Description of Proposed Amendment

On October 21, 2016, the Board unanimously approved an amendment (the “Plan Amendment”) to the Company’s 2014 Stock option and Equity Incentive Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), subject to stockholder approval, to increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the Plan by 3.5 million shares from 9,250,000 to 12,750,000 to support planned hiring efforts as the company grows.

The full text of the proposed Plan Amendment is set out in Annex A to this Proxy Statement. The text of the proposed Plan Amendment is subject to modification to include such changes as the Board deems necessary and advisable to affect the increase in the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan. Stockholders are being asked to approve the Plan Amendment.

Vote Required and Recommendation

The approval of the Plan Amendment will be made upon the affirmative vote of the majority of shares cast on the proposal. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no direct effect on the outcome of this proposal. If the proposal is not approved by the stockholders, the Plan Amendment will not be effective and the proposal will not be implemented.

Reasons for the Plan Amendment

2013 Plan Generally

Our 2013 Plan is currently comprised of 9,250,000 shares of Common Stock.

The purpose of the Plan is to provide a means through which the Company and its affiliates may attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means whereby directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants and advisors (and prospective directors, officers, managers, employees, consultants and advisors) of the Company and its affiliates can acquire and maintain an equity interest in the Company, or be paid incentive compensation, which may (but need not) be measured by reference to the value of Common Shares, thereby strengthening their commitment to the welfare of the Company and its affiliates and aligning their interests with those of the Company’s stockholders.

Increase in Size of Plan

Currently, awards (consisting of options to purchase shares of Common Stock) issued under the Plan total 6,209,029 million shares of Common Stock.

The Board determined to increase the number of shares of Common Stock reserved and available for issuance under the Plan by 3.5 million shares because it believes that the current number is insufficient for the purposes of the Plan for future issuances. The market for quality personnel is competitive, and the ability to obtain and retain competent personnel is of great importance to the Company’s business operations. In addition, the Board is seeking to satisfy grants made subject to stockholder approval as stated above as well as the Company’s forecasted needs for equity compensation.

Effects of the Plan Amendment

As a result of the Plan Amendment, there will be an increase in the total number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan. This will provide the Company with the ability to grant more awards than are currently available under the Plan to eligible recipients including employees, directors, consultants and advisors. The issuance in the future of awards under the Plan consisting of full value awards and options to purchase shares of Common Stock may have the effect of diluting the earnings per share and book value per share, as well as the stock ownership and voting rights, of the holders of the currently outstanding shares of Common Stock. The effective

increase in the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock which may be issued as awards under the Plan may be construed as having an anti-takeover effect by permitting the issuance of shares to purchasers who might oppose a hostile takeover bid or oppose any efforts to amend or repeal certain provisions of the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws. Holders of the Common Stock have no preemptive or other subscription rights. There are no other material differences to the Plan as a result of the Plan Amendment.

Material Terms of the Plan

Purpose. The purposes of the 2013 Stock Plan, as amended, are to attract and retain the best available personnel for positions of substantial responsibility, to provide additional incentive to employees, directors and consultants and to promote the success of the Company’s business.

Administration. The Plan shall be administered by the board or a committee, or a combination thereof, as determined by the board. The Plan may be administered by different administrative bodies with respect to different classes of participants and, if permitted by the applicable laws, the board may authorize one or more officers to make awards under the Plan.

Powers of the Administrator. The specific duties delegated by the board to the committee, the administrator shall have the authority, in its discretion:

• to determine the fair market value of the common stock, provided that such determination shall be applied consistently with respect to participants under the Plan;

• to select the employees, directors and consultants to whom Plan awards may from time to time be granted:

• to determine whether and to what extent Plan awards are granted;

• to determine the number of shares of common stock to be covered by each award granted;

• to approve the form(s) of agreement(s) used under the Plan;

• to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any award granted hereunder, which terms and conditions include but are not limited to the exercise or purchase price, the time or times when awards may be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), any vesting acceleration or waiver of forfeiture restrictions, any pro-rata adjustment to vesting as a result of a Participant’s transitioning from full-to part-time services (or vice versa), and any restriction or limitation regarding any option, optioned stock, stock purchase right or restricted stock, based in each case on such factors as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall determine;

• to adjust the vesting of an option held by an employee, director or consultant as a result of a change in the terms or conditions under which such person is providing services to the Company;

• to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan and awards granted under the Plan, which constructions, interpretations and decisions shall be final and binding on all participants; and

• in order to fulfill the purposes of the Plan and without amending the Plan, to modify grants of options or stock purchase rights to participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States in order to recognize differences in local law, tax policies or customs.

Eligibility. Nonstatutory Stock Options and Stock Purchase Rights may be granted to employees, directors and consultants. Incentive Stock Options may be granted only to employees, provided that employees of affiliates shall not be eligible to receive Incentive Stock Options. Each option shall be designated in the option agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of shares with respect to which options designated as Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by any optionee during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company or any parent or subsidiary) exceeds $100,000, such excess options shall be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options.

Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the board of directors. It shall continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years unless sooner terminated under the Plan.

Term of Option. The term of each option shall be the term stated in the option agreement; provided that the term shall be no more than ten years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the option agreement and provided further that, in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a person who at the time of such grant is a ten percent holder, the term of the option shall be five years from the date of grant thereof or such shorter term as may be provided in the option agreement.

Option Exercise Price and Consideration. The per share exercise price for the shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an option shall be such price as is determined by the administrator and set forth in the option agreement, but shall be subject to the following:

In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

(A) granted to an employee who at the time of grant is a ten percent holder, the per share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant; or

(B) granted to any other employee, the per share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the fair market value per Share on the date of grant.

In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per share exercise price shall be such price as determined by the administrator provided that for any Nonstatutory Stock Option granted on any date on which the common stock is a listed security to an eligible person who is, at the time of the grant of such option, a named executive of the Company, the per share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the fair market value on the date of grant if such Option is intended to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Exercise of Option. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the administrator, consistent with the term of the Plan and reflected in the option agreement, including vesting requirements and/or performance criteria with respect to the Company and/or the optionee. The administrator shall have the discretion to determine whether and to what extent the vesting of options shall be tolled during any unpaid leave of absence; provided however that in the absence of such determination, vesting of options shall be tolled during any such leave (unless otherwise required by the Applicable Laws.

Until the issuance of the shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder shall exist with respect to the optioned stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the option.

Termination of Employment or Consulting Relationship. Except as otherwise set forth in the plan the administrator shall establish and set forth in the applicable option agreement the terms and conditions upon which an option shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of an optionee’s continuous service status, which provisions may be waived or modified by the administrator at any time in the Administrator’s sole discretion. Unless otherwise provided in the option agreement, to the extent that the optionee is not vested in the optioned stock on the date of termination of his or her continuous service status, or if the optionee (or other person entitled to exercise the option) does not exercise the option to the extent so entitled within the time specified in the option agreement or below (as applicable), the option shall terminate and the optioned stock underlying the unexercised portion of the option shall revert to the Plan. In no event may any Option be exercised after the expiration of the option term as set forth in the option agreement.

The following provisions (1) shall apply to the extent an option agreement does not specify the terms and conditions upon which an option shall terminate upon termination of an optionee’s continuous service status, and (2) establish the minimum post-termination exercise periods that may be set forth in an option agreement:

• Termination other than Upon Disability or Death. In the event of termination of an optionee’s continuous service status, such optionee may exercise an option for 30 days following such termination to the extent the optionee was vested in the optioned stock as of the date of such termination.

• Disability of Optionee. In the event of termination of an optionee’s continuous service status as a result of his or her disability (including a disability within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code), such optionee may exercise an option at any time within twelve months following such termination to the extent the optionee was vested in the optioned stock as of the date of such termination.

• Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an optionee during the period of continuous service status since the date of grant of the option, or within thirty days following termination of optionee’s continuous service, the option may be exercised by optionee’s estate or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the option by bequest or inheritance at any time within twelve months following the date of death, but only to the extent the optionee was vested in the optioned stock as of the date of death or, if earlier, the date the optionee’s continuous service status terminated.

• Buyout Provisions. The administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or shares an option previously granted under the Plan based on such terms and conditions as the administrator shall establish and communicate to the optionee at the time that such offer is made.

Stock Purchase Rights. When the administrator determines that it will offer stock purchase rights under the Plan, it shall advise the offeree in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, and the time within which such person must accept such offer. The offer to purchase shares subject to stock purchase rights shall be accepted by execution of a restricted stock purchase agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.

Unless the administrator determines otherwise, the restricted stock purchase agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the purchaser’s employment with the Company for any reason (including death or disability). The purchase price for Shares repurchased pursuant to the restricted stock purchase agreement shall be the original purchase price paid by the purchaser and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the administrator may determine.

Taxes. As a condition of the exercise of an option or stock purchase right granted under the Plan, the participant (or in the case of the participant’s death, the person exercising the option or stock purchase right) shall make such arrangements as the administrator may require for the satisfaction of any applicable federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with the exercise of the option or stock purchase right and the issuance of shares. The Company shall not be required to issue any shares under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied. If permitted by the administrator, in its discretion, a participant may satisfy his or her tax withholding obligations upon exercise of an option or stock purchase right by surrendering to the Company shares that have a fair market value determined as of the applicable tax date equal to the amount required to be withheld.

Non-Transferability of Options and Stock Purchase Rights. Except as set forth in the Plan, options and stock purchase rights may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution. Notwithstanding anything else, prior to the date, if any, on which the common stock becomes a listed security, the administrator may in its discretion grant nonstatutory stock options that may be transferred by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the options are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor) or by gift to “Immediate Family” (as defined below), on such terms and conditions as the administrator deems appropriate. Following the date, if any, on which the common stock becomes a listed security, the administrator may in its discretion grant transferable nonstatutory stock options pursuant to option agreements specifying the manner in which such nonstatutory stock options are transferable. “Immediate Family” means any child, stepchild, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or sister-in-law, and shall include adoptive relationships.

Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Certain Other Transactions.

Change of Control. In the event of a Change of Control, (i) each outstanding Option shall become immediately vested and exercisable, and (ii) any outstanding Restricted Stock shall become immediately vested and any repurchase option with respect to such Restricted Stock shall immediately lapse, in each case effective immediately prior to the Change of Control.”

Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any required action by the stockholders of the Company, the number of shares of common stock covered by each outstanding option or stock purchase right, the number of shares and the number of shares of common stock that have been authorized for issuance under the Plan but as to which no options or stock purchase rights have yet been granted or that have been returned to the Plan upon cancellation or expiration of an option or stock purchase right, as well as the price per share of common stock covered by each

such outstanding option or stock purchase right, shall be proportionately adjusted for any increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of common stock resulting from a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, recapitalization or reclassification of the common stock, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of common stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company; provided, however, that conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be deemed to have been “effected without receipt of consideration.”

Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each option and stock purchase right will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the administrator.

Corporate Transaction. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, each outstanding Option or Stock Purchase Right shall be assumed or an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by such successor corporation or a parent or subsidiary of such successor corporation (the “Successor Corporation”), unless the Successor Corporation does not agree to assume the award or to substitute an equivalent option or right, in which case such Option or Stock Purchase Right shall terminate upon the consummation of the transaction in consideration for a cash payment to the Participant (on the date of the Corporate Transaction), with respect to each such Option, equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Common Stock subject to such Option over the exercise price of such Option.

Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The board may at any time amend, alter, suspend or discontinue the Plan, but no amendment, alteration, suspension or discontinuation shall be made that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any optionee or holder of stock purchase rights under any outstanding grant, without his or her consent. No amendment or termination of the Plan shall materially and adversely affect options or stock purchase rights already granted, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the optionee or holder of the stock purchase rights and the administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the optionee or holder and the Company.

PROPOSAL 4

ADVISORY VOTE ON OUR 2015 EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 requires public companies to provide stockholders with periodic advisory (non-binding) votes on executive compensation, also referred to as “say-on-pay” proposals.

Our executive compensation programs are designed to attract, motivate and retain our executive officers, who are critical to our success. Under these programs, our executive officers are rewarded for the achievement of annual, long-term and strategic goals, and corporate goals. Please read the “Executive Compensation” section beginning on page 22 for additional details about our executive compensation programs, including information about the fiscal year 2015 compensation of our Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Chief Medical Officer (collectively, the “Named Executive Officers”).

We are asking our stockholders to indicate their support for our Named Executive Officers’ compensation as described in this Proxy Statement. This proposal gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on our Named Executive Officers’ compensation. This vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather to address the overall compensation of our Named Executive Officers and the philosophy, policy and practices as described in this Proxy Statement. Accordingly, we will ask our stockholders to vote “FOR” the following resolution at the 2016 Annual Meeting:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s Named Executive Officers for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and narrative discussion, is hereby approved.”

Pursuant to the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder, this vote will not be binding on the Board or the Compensation Committee and may not be construed as overruling a decision by the Board or the Compensation Committee, creating or implying any change to the fiduciary duties of the Board or the Compensation Committee or any additional fiduciary duty by the Board or the Compensation Committee or restricting or limiting the ability of stockholders to make proposals for inclusion in proxy materials related to executive compensation. The Board and the Compensation Committee, however, may in their discretion take into account the outcome of the vote when considering future executive compensation arrangements.

Required Vote

In voting to approve the above resolution, stockholders may vote for the resolution, against the resolution or abstain from voting. This matter will be decided by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no direct effect on the outcome of this proposal.

THE BOARD RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” APPROVAL OF THE COMPENSATION OF THE COMPANY’S NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

OTHER MATTERS

As of the date hereof, there are no other matters that we intend to present, or have reason to believe others will present, at the annual meeting. If, however, other matters properly come before the annual meeting, the accompanying proxy authorizes the person named as proxy or his substitute to vote on such matters as he determines appropriate.

ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K

As required, we filed our 2015 Form 10-K, as amended, with the SEC. Stockholders may obtain, free of charge, a copy of the 2015 Form 10-K by writing to us at Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc., 275 Madison Avenue, 7th Floor, New York NY 10016, Attention: Corporate Secretary, or from our website, www.actiniumpharma.com under the heading “Investor Relations” and the subheading “Company Financial Reports.”

HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS

SEC rules concerning the delivery of annual disclosure documents allow us or your broker to send a single Notice or, if applicable, a single set of our proxy materials to any household at which two or more of our stockholders reside, if we or your broker believe that the stockholders are members of the same family. This practice, referred to as “householding,” benefits both you and us. It reduces the volume of duplicate information received at your household and helps us to reduce our expenses. The rule applies to our Notices, annual reports, proxy statements and information statements. Once you receive notice from your broker or from us that communications to your address will be “householded,” the practice will continue until you are otherwise notified or until you revoke your consent to the practice. Stockholders who participate in householding will continue to have access to and utilize separate proxy voting instructions.

If your household received a single Notice or, if applicable, a single set of proxy materials this year, but you would prefer to receive your own copy, please contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., by calling their toll free number, 1-866-540-7095.

If you do not wish to participate in “householding” and would like to receive your own Notice or, if applicable, set of our annual disclosure documents in future years, follow the instructions described below. Conversely, if you share an address with another holder of our Common Stock or Preferred Stock and together both of you would like to receive only a single Notice or, if applicable, set of our annual disclosure documents, follow these instructions:

• If your shares are registered in your own name, please contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., and inform them of your request by calling them at 1-866-540-7095 or writing them at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717.

• If a broker, bank or other nominee holds your shares, please contact the broker, bank or other nominee directly and inform them of your request. Be sure to include your name, the name of your brokerage firm and your account number.

Electronic Delivery of Company Stockholder Communications

Most stockholders can elect to view future proxy statements and annual reports over the Internet instead of receiving paper copies in the mail.

You can choose this option and save the cost of producing and mailing these documents by:

• following the instructions provided on your Notice or proxy card;

• following the instructions provided when you submit a proxy to vote over the Internet; or

• going to www.proxyvote.com and following the instructions provided.

Pursuant to Section 14 of the 2013 Amended and Restated Stock Plan, as amended (the “Plan”) of Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company”), the Board of Directors of the Company has duly adopted a resolution, conditioned upon approval by the stockholders of the Company, approving this Amendment No. 4 to the Plan to increase the total number of shares of common stock, par value $.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) reserved and available for issuance under the Plan as follows:

1. Section 3 of the Plan is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows:

In addition, any Shares of Common Stock which are retained by the Company upon exercise of an award in order to satisfy the exercise or purchase price for such award or any withholding taxes due with respect to such exercise or purchase shall be treated as not issued and shall continue to be available under the Plan. Shares issued under the Plan and later repurchased by the Company pursuant to any repurchase right which the Company may have shall not be available for future grant under the Plan.”

2. All other terms and provisions of the Plan shall remain unchanged and in full force and effect as written.

3. A majority in voting interest of the stockholders present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the meeting of stockholders at which this Amendment No. 4 was considered, has duly approved this Amendment No. 4 to the Plan.
