BOARD SELF-ASSESSMENT

The Board anticipates that it will conduct, and that the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will oversee, an annual self-evaluation to determine whether our Board is functioning effectively.  Our Board will periodically consider the mix of skills and experience that directors bring to the Board to assess whether the Board has the necessary tools to perform its oversight function effectively.

In addition, our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, Audit Committee, and Compensation Committee each plan to conduct their own annual self-assessment, which includes an assessment of the adequacy of their performance as compared to their respective charters.

EXECUTIVE SESSIONS OF INDEPENDENT BOARD MEMBERS

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that our non-employee directors meet in executive session at least four times per year, with no members of management or non-independent directors present.

COMMUNICATING WITH OUR DIRECTORS

Our Board welcomes communications from the Company’s stockholders, and it is the policy of the Company to facilitate communication from stockholders.  Our Board generally believes it is in the Company’s best interests that designated members of management speak on behalf of the Company.  Stockholders and other interested parties wishing to communicate with our Board or with an individual Board member concerning the Company may do so by writing to our Board or to a particular Board member, by mailing such correspondence to AEye, Inc., c/o Corporate Secretary, 4670 Willow Road, Suite 125, Pleasanton, CA 94588.

Please indicate on the envelope or in the email whether the communication is from a stockholder or other interested party.  Our Board has instructed the Corporate Secretary and other relevant members of management to examine incoming communications and forward such communication to our Board or the individual Board members, as appropriate, if such communications are deemed relevant to the Board’s roles and responsibilities.  Our Board has requested that certain types of communications not be forwarded, and redirected if appropriate, such as: spam, business solicitations or advertisements, resumes or employment inquiries, service complaints or inquiries, surveys, or any threatening or hostile materials.

DELINQUENT SECTION 16(A) REPORTS

Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires our directors, certain officers, and any beneficial owners of more than 10% of our common stock to file reports relating to their ownership and changes in ownership of our common stock with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and NASDAQ by certain deadlines.
