11. Stock-Based Compensation

Equity Incentive Plans

In November 2011, the Company established the 2011 Employee, Director and Consultant Equity Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”) and reserved shares of the Company’s common stock for sale and issuance under the 2011 Plan. Options granted under the 2011 Plan generally vest over a four-year period and generally expire ten years from the date of grant. Options are exercisable only to the extent vested. The 2011 Plan terminated in November 2021, and accordingly, no additional shares are available for grant under the 2011 Plan. The 2011 Plan continues to govern outstanding awards granted under the 2011 Plan.

The 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”) was established in July 2021. The 2021 Plan provides for the grant of incentive and non-statutory stock options as well as other stock rights to employees, directors, and consultants of the Company. Options generally vest over a four-year period, are exercisable only to the extent vested, and generally expire ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) generally vest over either a two-year or a four-year period. The 2021 Plan includes provisions for annual automatic increases to the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 Plan. In addition, any shares that otherwise would be returned to the 2011 Plan as a result of the expiration or cancellation of stock options may be

added to the 2021 Plan. As of September 30, 2026, there were 495,463 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock that were available for future grants under the 2021 Plan.

The 2021 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2021 ESPP”) was established in July 2021. The 2021 ESPP includes provisions for annual automatic increases to the number of shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 ESPP. As of September 30, 2026, there were 1,641,250 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock that were available for future grants under the 2021 ESPP.
