4 and May 20, 2024, respectively. Except as set forth in Section III.A of the Amended and Restated 2021 LTIP, the Executive Performance Awards incorporate the terms of the Amended and Restated 2021 LTIP, as it may be amended from time-to-time. Each Executive Performance Award is intended to constitute a standalone equity incentive plan and any shares of Common Stock issued under such awards will not be issued under, or count against the number of shares of Common Stock reserved pursuant to, any of the Company’s other equity-based compensation plans or awards. Upon the departure of our former Chief Financial Officer from the Company in September 2024, the Forfeited CFO Performance Award was terminated and any right to receive shares of Common Stock or cash payments thereunder in the future was forfeited. No shares of Common Stock had been issued or cash payments made to our former Chief Financial Officer under the Forfeited CFO Performance Award prior to forfeiture. In addition, all compensation expense associated with the Forfeited CFO Performance Award was reversed during the year  December 31, 2024. The issuance of any shares under the Executive Performance Awards upon vesting is contingent upon receipt of the approval of each standalone plan by the Company’s stockholders. At the 2024 Annual Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the CEO Performance Award and the potential issuance of up to 73.0 million shares of Common Stock thereunder, subject to the satisfaction of the applicable performance- and service-based vesting conditions under such award, if at all. The Company currently intends to obtain approval of the CCO Performance Award as a standalone plan by the Company’s stockholders at a future meeting of the Company’s stockholders or by written consent of the Company’s stockholders. If on any Determination Date (as defined below) there is not a sufficient amount of shares authorized by the Company’ stockholders to deliver the number of shares due under the
