All annual cash fees are vested upon payment.

Equity Compensation

Commencing on the IPO, each Non-Employee Director will be eligible to receive the equity compensation set forth below. Equity awards will be granted under the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).

(a) Initial Appointment Equity Grant. On appointment to the Board, and without any further action of the Board or Compensation Committee of the Board, at the close of business on the day of such appointment, a Non-Employee Director will be automatically granted a Restricted Stock Unit Award for Common Stock having a value of $400,000 based on the average Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) of the underlying Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on the day prior to the date of grant (the “Initial RSU”). Each Initial RSU will vest over three years, with one-third of the Initial RSU vesting on each of the first, second, and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

(b) Automatic Equity Grants. Without any further action of the Board or Compensation Committee of the Board, at the close of business on the date of each Annual Meeting of the Company’s stockholders (“Annual Meeting”), each person who is then a Non-Employee Director will automatically receive a Restricted Stock Unit Award for Common Stock having a value of $200,000 based on the average Fair Market Value of the underlying Common Stock for the ten (10) trading days ending on day prior to the date of grant (the “Annual RSU”). Each Annual RSU will vest on the earlier of (i) the date of the following year’s Annual Meeting (or the date immediately prior to the next Annual Meeting if the Non-Employee Director’s service as a director ends at such meeting due to the director’s failure to be re-elected or the director not standing for re-election); or (ii) the first anniversary of the date of grant.

The Company will reimburse Non-Employee Directors for ordinary, necessary, and reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to cover in-person attendance at, and participation in, Board and committee meetings; provided, that the Non-Employee Director timely submits appropriate documentation substantiating such expenses in accordance with the Company’s travel and expense policy, as in effect from time to time.
