Equity Awards
Annual Equity Awards for Continuing Board Members
On the date of the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) and on the date of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders thereafter, each non-employee director then in office will automatically be granted an annual equity award with a value equal to that set forth in the table above, which award shall be one hundred percent (100%) in nonstatutory stock options (the “Annual Equity Award”). The number of stock options underlying the Annual Equity Award will be determined on the date of grant by dividing the Annual Equity Award value by the fair value of a stock option calculated using the same pricing model and assumptions used in the Company’s financial statements and the per-share closing price of a share of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) on the date of the IPO or the trailing 20 trading day average closing stock price of a share of Common Stock on the date of the annual meeting, as applicable. Subject to the non-employee director’s continued service, the Annual Equity Award will vest in one installment on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Should the annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders in the year following the year in which the Annual Equity Award was granted occur prior to the vesting date of the Annual Equity Award, the outstanding and unvested portion of the Annual Equity Award will vest on the day prior to that annual meeting. In the event that more than one annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurs during a given fiscal year, Annual Equity Awards will be made only in connection with the first such meeting to occur in that year.
Equity Awards for New Board Members
For each new non-employee director appointed or elected to the Board (or any non-employee director serving on the Board prior to the IPO who has not received compensation for such services prior to such date), on the date that the new non-employee director first becomes a member of the Board or the date of the IPO, as applicable, the new non-employee director will automatically be granted an equity award with a value equal to that set forth in the table above, which award shall be one hundred percent (100%) in nonstatutory stock options (the “New Director Equity Award”), with the number of stock options subject to such New Director Equity Award to be determined in the same manner as described above with respect to Annual Equity Awards. Subject to the non-employee director’s continued service, 1/3 of the New Director Equity Award will vest on the first anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 2/3 of the New Director Equity Award will vest in 24 substantially equal monthly installments thereafter.
Provisions Applicable to All Equity Awards
Each Annual Equity Award and New Director Equity Award will be made under and subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s 2025 Performance Incentive Plan or any successor equity compensation plan approved by the Company’s stockholders and in effect at the time of grant, and will be evidenced by, and subject to the terms and conditions of, any award agreement in the form approved by the Board to evidence such type of grant pursuant to this policy.

All directors will be entitled to reimbursement from the Company for their reasonable travel (including airfare and ground transportation), lodging and meal expenses incident to meetings of the Board or committees thereof or in connection with other Board related business.
