(3) Ms. Henrich, Dr. Touchon, and Mr. Murugan forfeited their 2024 annual bonuses in connection with the terminations of their employment. Long-Term Incentives Our goal is to align executive compensation and performance that advances our critical business objectives. Therefore, a significant portion of the named executive officers’ total compensation typically has consisted of, and is expected to continue to consist of, equity-based awards. In evaluating the mix of equity awards for 2024, the Human Capital Committee considered market trends and a desire to responsibly manage our share pool and minimize potential dilution to stockholders. Issuing equity grants 100% in RSUs provided a link to stock price performance but expended fewer shares than stock options to deliver the same value. Granting RSUs allows us to effectively manage our annual share usage while continuing to provide necessary incentives to continue to drive stockholder alignment. The following table outlines the equity awards granted to named executive officers in 2024.
