On January 24, 2025, the Company and Mr. Hartmann entered into a Transition and Severance Agreement (the “ Transition Agreement”), effective as of the Transition Date. Pursuant to the terms of the Transition Agreement, Mr. Hartmann will continue to be employed with, and provide transition services to, the Company from the Transition Date through February 6, 2025 (the “ Separation Date,” and such period, the “ Transition Period”).

Further, the exercise period for his vested options shall be extended for a period of 12 months following the Separation Date.

Following the Transition Period, the Transition Agreement provides that from February 7, 2025 through March 6, 2026 (the “ Severance Period”), Mr. Hartmann will receive a monthly severance payment of $30,000, reduced by taxes and withholdings.
