At the time the Company’s 2026 focal grants are awarded to the Company’s executive officers, it will be recommended to the Compensation Committee that Mr. Mattingly receive the following one-time initial equity awards pursuant to the Company’s 2020 Incentive Award Plan: (i) restricted stock units (the “Mattingly RSUs”) with a target value of $1,000,000, (ii) performance-based stock units (the “Mattingly PSUs”) with a target value of $1,000,000, and (i) an option to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Mattingly Option”) with a grant date fair value of $1,000,000, based on the Black-Scholes pricing model. The number of shares of Company common stock subject to the Mattingly RSUs and PSUs will be determined for each award by dividing $1,000,000 by the 30-day trailing average of the Company’s closing stock price immediately prior to the date of grant, rounded to the nearest whole share. 2

The Mattingly RSUs will vest over four years commencing on December 2, 2025, with 25% of the Mattingly RSUs vesting on December 2, 2026 and 6.5% of the Mattingly RSUs vesting on each quarterly anniversary thereafter over the remaining three years. The Mattingly PSUs will vest based on such performance metrics and on the same terms as the performance stock unit awards made to all other similar situated senior executives officers for calendar year 2026, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The Mattingly Options will vest and become exercisable over four years commencing on December 2, 2025, with 25% of the shares subject to the option vesting on December 2, 2026 and 1/48th of the shares subject to the Mattingly Option vesting on each monthly anniversary thereafter. All vesting is subject to Mr. Mattingly’s continued employment with the Company through each vesting date.

The Company and Mr. Mattingly entered into the Company’s standard change in control and severance agreement, a copy of which has been included as Exhibit 10.20 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, pursuant to which he is eligible to receive certain payments and benefits in the event the Company terminates Mr. Mattingly’s employment without Cause (as defined therein) or resigns for Good Reason (as defined therein). The severance provided under the severance agreement provides for (a) 12 months of his base salary; (b) 100% of his target annual bonus; (c) continued healthcare coverage under our medical plan for up to 12 months and (d) full acceleration of the vesting of all of his outstanding equity awards (other than any performance-based equity awards). Mr. Mattingly must timely execute, and not revoke, a general release of all claims against the Company and our affiliates to receive the foregoing severance payments and benefits. In addition, if Mr. Mattingly materially breaches certain restrictive covenants he will forfeit his severance benefits.
