 Exhibit 10.19 

CHARGEPOINT HOLDINGS, INC. 

SEVERANCE AND CHANGE IN CONTROL AGREEMENT 

This Severance and Change in Control Agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into by and between
_________________ (the “Executive”) and ChargePoint Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), effective as of the date specified in Section 1 below. 

This Agreement provides severance and acceleration benefits in connection with certain qualifying terminations of Executive’s employment
with the Company. Upon its effectiveness, this Agreement shall supersede the severance and acceleration provisions set forth in Executive’s offer letter with the Company dated as of _________________ and in any stock option agreement with the
Company. [The option granted to Executive on June 2, 2020 includes a non-change in control acceleration benefit, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the stock option agreement applicable to
that award, which is not superseded by this Agreement.]1 
 Certain capitalized terms
are defined in Section 8. 
 The Company and Executive agree as follows: 

1. Term. This Agreement shall become effective on the closing date of the merger, as contemplated by that business combination agreement
and plan of reorganization, dated as of September 23, 2020, by and among Switchback Energy Acquisition Corporation, Lightening Merger Sub Inc. and ChargePoint, Inc. (the “Effective Date”). Unless terminated sooner, this
Agreement will terminate automatically on the three year anniversary of the Effective Date. 
 2. Severance Benefits. 

(a) Involuntary Termination Not Involving a Change in Control. If Executive is subject to an Involuntary Termination which occurs more
than three months prior to, or more than twelve months following, a Change in Control (if any) and Executive satisfies the conditions described in Section 2(c) below, then Executive shall be entitled to the following severance benefits:
(i) a lump-sum cash severance payment equal to six months of Executive’s Base Salary and (ii) a lump-sum cash payment equal to six months of
Executive’s COBRA premiums. 
 (b) Involuntary Termination Involving a Change in Control. If Executive is subject to an
Involuntary Termination which occurs within three months prior to, or twelve months following, a Change in Control and Executive satisfies the conditions described in Section 2(c) below, then Executive shall be entitled to the following
severance benefits: (i) a lump-sum cash severance payment equal to twelve months of Executive’s Base Salary; (ii) a 

 

	1 	 To be included in the agreement for Pasquale Romano. 














 
lump sum cash payment equal to twelve months of Executive’s COBRA premiums; and (iii) unless the Company provides otherwise when an equity award is granted, one hundred percent of the
unvested portion of each outstanding equity award that Executive holds as of the Involuntary Termination will vest and, if applicable, become exercisable. In the case of equity awards subject to performance conditions, the unvested portion of the
award will be determined at the greater of actual performance or based on “target” levels of achievement. For avoidance of doubt, if Executive is subject to an Involuntary Termination that occurs within three months prior to a Change in
Control, the portion of Executive’s then-outstanding and unvested equity awards that is eligible to vest and become exercisable pursuant to clause (iii) will remain outstanding for three months or the occurrence of a Change in Control,
whichever is sooner, so that any additional benefits due pursuant to clause (iii) may be provided if a Change in Control occurs within three months after Executive’s Involuntary Termination, provided that in no event will any of
Executive’s stock options remain outstanding beyond the option’s maximum term to expiration. If a Change in Control does not occur within three months after an Involuntary Termination, any unvested portion of Executive’s equity awards
that remained outstanding following Executive’s Involuntary Termination will immediately and automatically be forfeited. 
 (c)
Preconditions to Severance and Change in Control Benefits / Timing of Benefits. As a condition to Executive’s receipt of any benefits described in Section 2, Executive shall execute and allow to become effective a general release of
claims in substantially the form attached hereto, comply with the Executive’s continuing obligations (including the return of Company property) to the Company, and, if requested by the Company, immediately resign from all positions Executive
holds with the Company, including as a member of the Company’s Board of Directors and as a member of the board of directors of any subsidiaries of the Company. Executive must execute and return the release on or before the date specified by the
Company, which will in no event be later than 50 days after Executive’s employment terminates. If Executive fails to return the release by the deadline or if Executive revokes the release, then Executive will not be entitled to the benefits
described in this section 2. All such benefits will be paid or provided within 60 days after Executive’s Involuntary Termination or if later on the date a Change in Control occurs. If such 60 day period spans calendar years, then payment will
in any event be made in the second calendar year. 
 3. Section 409A. The Company intends that all payments and benefits provided
under this Agreement or otherwise are exempt from, or comply with, with the requirements of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) so that none of the payments or benefits will be
subject to the additional tax imposed under Code Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted in accordance with such intent. For purposes of Code Section 409A, each payment, installment or benefit payable under this
Agreement is hereby designated as a separate payment. In addition, if the Company determines that Executive is a “specified employee” under Code Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) at the time of Executive’s Separation, then (i) any
severance payments or benefits, to the extent that they are subject to Code Section 409A, will not be paid or otherwise provided until the first business day following (A) expiration of the six-month
period measured from Executive’s Separation or (B) the date of Executive’s death and (ii) any installments that otherwise would have been paid or provided prior to such date will be paid or provided in a lump sum when the
severance payments or benefits commence. 

  
 -2- 













 4. Section 280G. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the
contrary, in the event that the payments and benefits provided pursuant to this Agreement, together with all other payments and benefits received or to be received by Executive (“Payments”), constitute “parachute
payments” within the meaning of Code Section 280G, and, but for this Section 4, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Code Section 4999 (the “Excise Tax”), then the Payments shall be made to
Executive either (i) in full or (ii) as to such lesser amount as would result in no portion of the Payments being subject to the Excise Tax (a “Reduced Payment”), whichever of the foregoing amounts, taking into
account applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the Excise Tax, results in Executive’s receipt on an after-tax basis, of the greatest amount of benefits, notwithstanding that all or some
portion of the Payments may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a Reduced Payment is to be made under this section, reduction of Payments will occur in the following order: reduction of cash payments, then cancellation of equity-based payments and
accelerated vesting of equity awards, and then reduction of employee benefits. If accelerated vesting of equity awards is to be reduced, such acceleration of vesting will be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant. In the event that cash
payments or other benefits are reduced, such reduction shall occur in reverse order beginning with the payments and benefits which are to be paid furthest away in time. All determinations required to be made under this Section 4 (including
whether any of the Payments are parachute payments and whether to make a Reduced Payment) will be made by an independent accounting firm selected by the Company. For purposes of making the calculations required by this section, the accounting firm
may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonably, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Code Sections 280G and 4999. The Company will bear the costs that the accounting firm
may reasonably incur in connection with the calculations contemplated by this Section 4. The accounting firm’s determination will be binding on both Executive and the Company absent manifest error. 

5. Company’s Successors. Any successor to the Company to all or substantially all of the Company’s business and/or assets
shall assume the Company’s obligations under this Agreement and agree expressly to perform the Company’s obligations under this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent as the Company would be required to perform such
obligations in the absence of a succession. 
 6. Miscellaneous Provisions. 

(a) Modification or Waiver. No provision of this Agreement may be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or
discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by Executive and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than Executive). No waiver by either party of any breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the
other party shall be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same condition or provision at another time. 
 (b)
Integration. This Agreement represents the entire agreement and understanding between the parties as to the subject matter herein and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous agreements, whether written or oral, with respect to the subject
matter of this Agreement. 

  
 -3- 













 (c) Choice of Law. The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this
Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws, but not the conflicts of law rules, of the State of California. 
 (d) Tax
Withholding. Any payments provided for hereunder are subject to reduction to reflect applicable withholding and payroll taxes and other reductions required under federal, state or local law. 

(e) Notices. Any notice required by the terms of this Agreement shall be given in writing. It shall be deemed effective upon
(i) personal delivery, (ii) deposit with the United States Postal Service, by registered or certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid or (iii) deposit with Federal Express Corporation, with shipping charges prepaid. Notice shall
be addressed to the Company at its principal executive office (attention General Counsel) and to the Executive at the address that he or she most recently provided to the Company in accordance with this Subsection (e). 

(f) Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision or provisions of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or
enforceability of any other provision hereof, which shall remain in full force and effect. 
 (g) Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together will constitute one and the same instrument. 

7. At-Will Employment. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall (a) confer upon Executive
any right to continue in the employ of the Company, (b) constitute any contract or agreement of employment, or (c) interfere in any way with the at-will nature of Executive’s employment with the
Company. 
 8. Definitions. The following terms referred to in this Agreement shall have the following meanings: 

(a) “Base Salary” means Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to an Involuntary
Termination; provided, however, that in the event of a Resignation for Good Reason due to a material reduction in Executive’s base salary, “Base Salary” means Executive’s annual base salary as in effect immediately prior to such
reduction. 
 (b) “Cause” means (i) Executive’s unauthorized use or disclosure of the Company’s
confidential information or trade secrets, which use or disclosure causes material harm to the Company, (ii) Executive’s material breach of any agreement with the Company, (iii) Executive’s material failure to comply with the
Company’s written policies or rules, (iv) Executive’s conviction of, or plea of “guilty” or “no contest” to, a felony under the laws of the United States or any State, (v) Executive’s gross negligence or
willful misconduct in the performance of Executive’s duties for the Company, (vi) Executive’s continuing failure to perform assigned duties after receiving written notification of the failure from the Company’s Board of Directors
or (vii) Executive’s failure to cooperate in good faith with a governmental or internal investigation of the Company or its directors, officers or employees, if the Company has 

  
 -4- 













 
requested such cooperation. In the case of clauses (ii), (iii) and (vii), the Company will not terminate Executive’s employment for Cause without first giving Executive written notification
of the acts or omissions constituting Cause and a reasonable cure period of not less than 10 days following such notice to the extent such events are curable (as determined by the Company). 

(c) “Change in Control” means: 

(i) Any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the
“Exchange Act”)) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of the Company representing more than 50%
of the total voting power represented by the Company’s then-outstanding voting securities; 
 (ii) The consummation of the sale or
disposition by the Company of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; 
 (iii) The consummation of a merger or consolidation
of the Company with or into any other entity, other than a merger or consolidation which would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately prior thereto continuing to represent (either by remaining outstanding or by being
converted into voting securities of the surviving entity or its parent) more than 50% of the total voting power represented by the voting securities of the Company or such surviving entity or its parent outstanding immediately after such merger or
consolidation; or 
 (iv) Individuals who are members of the Company’s board of directors (the “Incumbent
Board”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the members of the Company’s board of directors over a period of 12 months; provided, however, that if the appointment or election (or nomination for election) of
any new board member was approved or recommended by a majority vote of the members of the Incumbent Board then still in office, such new member shall, for purposes of this Agreement, be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board. 

A transaction shall not constitute a Change in Control if its sole purpose is to change the state of the Company’s incorporation or to create a holding
company that will be owned in substantially the same proportions by the persons who held the Company’s securities immediately before such transaction. In addition, if a Change in Control constitutes a payment event with respect to any
amount which is subject to Code Section 409A, then the transaction must also constitute a “change in control event” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) to the extent
required by Code Section 409A. For avoidance of doubt the transactions contemplated by the business combination agreement described in Section 1 of this Agreement shall not constitute a “Change in Control.”

Reason.

(50) miles from Executive’s principal place of business. In order to constitute a Resignation for Good Reason, Executive must give the Company written notice of the condition within 90 days after it comes into existence, the Company must
fail to remedy the condition within 30 days after receiving Executive’s written notice and Executive must terminate his or her employment within 30 days after expiration of the cure period. 

(f) “Separation” means a “separation from service” as defined in the regulations under Code
Section 409A. 
 (g) “Termination Without Cause” means a Separation as a result of the termination of
Executive’s employment by the Company without Cause and not as a result of Executive’s death or disability.

 Exhibit A 

FORM OF SEVERANCE AGREEMENT AND RELEASE OF CLAIMS2

“ChargePoint” or “the Company”) mutually desire to define their rights and liabilities with respect to one another upon the conclusion of the Employee’s employment with the Company on ______________, 202_ (the

 1. Severance benefits3. In exchange for the consideration described herein, ChargePoint hereby agrees: 
  

	 	(a)	 to pay the Employee the sum of $___________________, which is equal to __ months of Employee’s base

	 	(c)	 [To the extent the Company is subject to a “Change in Control” (as defined in Employee’s
Severance and Change in Control Agreement with the Company (the “Severance Agreement”)) within 3 months after the Termination Date, Employee will be eligible for the enhanced severance benefits described in Section 2(b) of such
agreement (which, for avoidance of doubt, are in lieu of, and not in addition to, the severance benefits described in clauses (a) and (b) above).] OR [100% of the equity awards listed on Exhibit A hereto shall become fully vested and, if
applicable, exercisable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of any equity awards that are subject to performance conditions, vesting will occur at the greater of actual performance or target levels of performance as set forth on Exhibit A.]

 2. Equity

will remain in effect in accordance with their terms, and Employee acknowledges that Employee will remain bound by them. Any Company equity awards that are unvested as of Employee’s employment termination date and that do not vest pursuant to

 This
Agreement shall not apply, however, to any rights and claims not subject to waiver by law, including, but not limited to, claims for unemployment insurance benefits, claims for workers’ compensation benefits and rights to indemnity pursuant to
applicable law. This Agreement also shall not operate to release any vested rights the Employee may hold to equity in the Company, including, but not limited to, stock, stock options and restricted stock units, but the Employee’s unvested

 4. Scope of release. The Employee understands and
intends that the rights, claims and causes of action released herein include all legal, contractual, statutory and equitable rights, claims and causes of action held by him or her against the Released Parties (except those rights, claims and causes
of action not subject to waiver by law), regardless of whether those rights, claims, or causes of action are presently existing, known or anticipated.

applicable law to any government agency or entity, including, but not limited to, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, the Department of Justice, the Department of Labor, and the

any such new or different facts; and 


  

	 	(b)	 hereby waives all rights to which he or she may be entitled pursuant to Civil Code section 1542, which provides
as follows: 


 A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect
to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release, and that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party. 

7. No existing claims; covenant not to file claims. The Employee represents that he or she has not filed any complaints, claims,
grievances or actions against any of the Released Parties with any state, federal or local court or agency, and covenants not to file any complaints, claims, grievances or actions (other than those not subject to waiver by law, including as provided

8. Payment of wages and benefits. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that ChargePoint paid to him or her by the date on which his or
her employment terminated all wages, including accrued vacation, commissions, bonuses and other incentive compensation, earned through that date, and that the only payments and benefits that the Employee is entitled to receive from the Company in

 11. Confidential Information, Inventions, etc. The Employee
shall at all times comply with the provisions of the Employee Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement attached as Exhibit B to his or her employment agreement dated ___________________ (the “PIIA”). 

12. Return of Company property. The Employee shall return to ChargePoint on the date on which his or her employment terminates, or at
such other time as the Company may request, all property of the Company in his or her possession, custody or control. The Employee shall not retain copies of any property, documents or data belonging to the Company. To the extent that the Employee

custody or control. 
 13. Legal proceedings. The Employee shall cooperate with all reasonable requests by ChargePoint for assistance

 15. Severability. If a court of competent jurisdiction declares or determines that any
provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision(s) shall be deemed not a part of the Agreement, but the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. If a court
declares or determines that any of the release provisions set forth in section 2 above are invalid, illegal or unenforceable, however, ChargePoint shall have the option of declaring section 1 of this Agreement null and void and, in such event, the
Employee shall return to the Company all consideration provided to him or her to date pursuant to this Agreement. 
 16. Further

 18. Remedy for breach. Each party, upon breach of this Agreement by the
other, shall have the right to seek all necessary and proper relief, including, but not limited to, specific performance, from a court of competent jurisdiction and the party prevailing in such a suit shall be entitled to recover reasonable costs
and attorney fees, to the fullest extent permitted by law. 
 19. Governing law; dispute resolution. The laws of the State of
California shall govern the construction and enforcement of this Agreement, except that the Agreement shall be interpreted as through drafted jointly by the Employee and ChargePoint. In the event a dispute arises between them, the parties shall
first attempt to resolve the dispute by participating in mediation with a mutually acceptable mediator. In the event that the parties fail to resolve their dispute through mediation, they shall resolve it either in the Superior Court of the County
of Santa Clara, State of California or in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, San Jose Division, and each consents to mandatory personal jurisdiction and venue in these courts. 

  
 -13- 













 20. No admission. Nothing contained in this Agreement will constitute or be treated
as an admission by the Employee, the Company or any of the other Released Parties of liability, any wrongdoing or any violation of law. 

21. Entire agreement; modification. This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes all prior
agreements or understandings, both written and oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, except that this Agreement shall not operate to extinguish the Employee’s obligations pursuant to the PIIA, which shall
remain in full force and effect according to its terms. [List any other agreements that should survive termination of employment.] The parties may modify this Agreement only through a writing signed by each. 

22. No reliance on representations by other party or other party’s representatives. The parties agree and represent that they have
