Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On June 20, 2025, Snail, Inc. (the “Company”) granted the Company’s three (3) non-employee directors who are “independent directors” the following time-based restricted stock units (“RSUs”): (i) Neil Foster received an aggregate of 133,332 RSUs, of which (A) 44,444 RSUs were granted for service as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) in Fiscal 2023 and vest immediately, (B) 44,444 RSUs were granted for service as a member of the Board in Fiscal 2024 and vest immediately, and (C) 44,444 RSUs were granted for serving as a member of the Board on the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “2025 Annual Meeting”) and vest in four (4) equal quarterly installments over the course of one (1) year; (ii) Sandra Pundmann received an aggregate of 133,332 RSUs, of which (A) 44,444 RSUs were granted for service as a member of the Board in Fiscal 2023 and vest immediately, (B) 44,444 RSUs were granted for service as a member of the Board in Fiscal 2024 and vest immediately, and (C) 44,444 RSUs were granted for serving as a member of the Board on the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting and vest in four (4) equal quarterly installments over the course of one (1) year; and (iii) Ryan Jamieson received (A) 26,666 RSUs for serving as a member of the Board for seven (7) months in 2023-2024 and vest immediately; and (B) ) 44,444 RSUs were granted for serving as a member of the Board on the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting and vest in four (4) equal quarterly installments over the course of one (1) year.
Pursuant to the Company’s compensation program for non-employee directors, which is described in more detail in the definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A that the Company files each year in connection with its annual meeting of stockholders, each eligible non-employee director is scheduled to receive, on an annual basis, cash compensation and an annual grant of RSUs in the amount of $60,000. Each RSU represents a contingent right to receive one share of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A common stock”), subject to each director’s continuous service with the Company or any subsidiary of the Company through the vesting date. The RSUs are issued under the Snail, Inc. 2022 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and the number of RSUs issued to each non-employee director is calculated based on the closing price of the Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the grant date, which is referred to as the “Fair Market Value” in the Plan. The closing price of the Class A common stock on the Nasdaq Capital Market on the grant date of the RSUs (or June 20, 2025) was $1.35 per share.
