**JOBY AVIATION, INC.**

**333 Encinal Street**

**Santa Cruz, CA 95060**

**PROXY STATEMENT**

**2026 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS**

**TO BE HELD ON JUNE 2, 2026**

**INFORMATION ABOUT SOLICITATION AND VOTING**

The accompanying proxy is solicited on behalf of the board of directors of Joby Aviation, Inc., for use at the 2026 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "Annual Meeting") to be held on June 2, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time via live audio webcast on the Internet at *www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/*JOBY2026.

**NOTE REGARDING 2021 BUSINESS COMBINATION**

On August 10, 2021, we consummated the business combination (the "Merger"), contemplated by the Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), dated as of February 23, 2021, pursuant to which Joby Aero, Inc. ("Legacy Joby") was merged with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Reinvent Technology Partners ("RTP"). Legacy Joby survived as a wholly-owned subsidiary of RTP, which was renamed Joby Aviation, Inc. ("Joby Aviation").

Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, references in this proxy statement to "we," "us," "the Company," "Joby" and "Joby Aviation" refer to the consolidated operations of Joby Aviation, Inc. and its subsidiaries. References to "Legacy Joby" refer to Joby Aero, Inc. prior to the Merger.

**INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROXY STATEMENT**

**Why you received this proxy statement**. You are viewing or have received these proxy materials because Joby's board of directors is soliciting your proxy to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting. This proxy statement includes information that we are required to provide to you under the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and that is designed to assist you in voting your shares.

**Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials**. As permitted by SEC rules, Joby is making this proxy statement and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the Fiscal Year Ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Annual Report") available to its stockholders electronically via the Internet. On or about April 21, 2026 (the "Notice Date"), we mailed to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners at the close of business on April 7, 2026 (the "Record Date") a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the "Notice") containing instructions on how to access this proxy statement and our 2025 Annual Report and vote online. On the Notice Date, all stockholders and beneficial owners will have the ability to access, free of charge, all proxy materials on a website referred to in the Notice.

If you received a Notice by mail, you will not receive a printed copy of the proxy materials unless you specifically request them. The Notice instructs you on how to access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy statement and 2025 Annual Report. The Notice also instructs you on how you can submit your proxy over the Internet. If you received a Notice and would like to receive a printed copy of our proxy materials, you should follow the instructions for requesting such materials contained on the Notice.

**Printed Copies of Our Proxy Materials**. If you received printed copies of our proxy materials, instructions regarding how you can vote are contained on the proxy card included in the materials.

**Householding**. The SEC's rules permit us to deliver a single set of proxy materials to one address shared by two or more of our stockholders, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholders prior to the mailing date. This delivery method is referred to as "householding" and can result in significant cost savings as well as reduce the environmental impact of printing and mailing multiple sets of materials to the same location.

If you prefer to receive separate copies of the proxy materials, contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at 1-866-540-7095 or in writing at Broadridge, Householding Department, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717. We will deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the proxy materials to any stockholder who makes a request.

If you are currently a stockholder sharing an address with another stockholder and wish to receive only one copy of future proxy materials for your household, please contact Broadridge at the above phone number or address.

---

We know of no other business that will be presented at the Annual Meeting. If any other matter properly comes before the stockholders for a vote at the Annual Meeting, however, the proxy holders named on the Company's proxy card will vote your shares in accordance with their best judgment.

**Who is entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting?**

The Record Date for the Annual Meeting is April 7, 2026. You are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting only if you were a stockholder of record at the close of business on that date, or if you hold a valid proxy for the Annual Meeting. Each outstanding share of common stock is entitled to one vote for all matters to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. At the close of business on the Record Date, there were 983,169,282 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

**What is the difference between being a "record holder" and holding shares in "street name"?**

A record holder holds shares in their name. Shares held in street name are shares that are held in the name of a bank or broker on an individual's behalf.

**Am I entitled to vote if my shares are held in street name?**

If your shares are held by a bank or a brokerage firm, you are considered the beneficial owner of those shares held in street name. If your shares are held in street name, these proxy materials are being provided to you by your bank or brokerage firm, along with a voting instruction card if you received printed copies of our proxy materials. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank or brokerage firm how to vote your shares, and the bank or brokerage firm is required to vote your shares in accordance with your instructions. If your shares are held in street name and you would like to vote your shares at the Annual Meeting, you should contact your broker or other nominee to obtain a valid proxy from your broker or other nominee that gives you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

**How do I vote if I am a record holder?**

If you are a record holder, you may vote:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Internet — You can vote over the Internet at *www.proxyvote.com* by following the instructions on the Notice or proxy card;

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Telephone — You can vote by telephone by calling 1-800-690-6903 and following the instructions on the proxy card;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Mail — You can vote by mail by signing, dating and mailing the proxy card, which you may have received by mail; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Electronically at the Meeting — If you attend the meeting online, you will need the 16-digit control number included in your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials to vote electronically during the meeting.

Internet and telephone voting facilities for stockholders of record will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time, on June 1, 2026. To participate in the Annual Meeting, including to vote via the Internet or telephone, you will need the 16-digit control number included on your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials.

Whether or not you expect to attend the Annual Meeting online, we urge you to vote your shares as promptly as possible to ensure your representation and the presence of a quorum at the Annual Meeting. If you submit your proxy, you may still decide to attend the Annual Meeting and vote your shares electronically.

**Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?**

Yes, you can change your vote or revoke your proxy at any time before the vote is taken.

If you are a record holder, you can change your vote by:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• submitting a duly executed proxy with a later date using any of the methods described above;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• providing written notice of revocation to Joby's Corporate Secretary at Joby Aviation, Inc., 333 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz, California 95060, prior to the Annual Meeting; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• voting online at the Annual Meeting. Your attendance at the Annual Meeting will not revoke your proxy unless you give written notice of revocation to the Corporate Secretary before your proxy is voted or you vote online at the Annual Meeting.

Please note that if your shares are held in street name and you wish to revoke a proxy or change your voting instructions, you must contact your broker.

**What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?**

The holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting as of the Record Date must be present in person or by remote communication, or represented by proxy, at the Annual Meeting in order to conduct business at the Annual Meeting. This presence is called a quorum. Your shares are counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you are present in person or by remote communication at the Annual Meeting or if you have properly submitted a proxy.

**What is the vote required for each proposal?**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• <u>Proposal One</u>: Each director shall be elected by a plurality of the votes cast, meaning that the three individuals nominated for election to our board of directors at the Annual Meeting receiving the highest number of "FOR" votes will be elected.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• <u>Proposal Two</u>: Ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• <u>Proposal Three</u>: Approval of the non-binding advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers (the "NEOs") requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions and broker non-votes.

**What is an "abstention" or a "vote withheld" and how will abstentions and votes withheld be treated?**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;An "abstention," in the case of Proposals Two or Three, or a "vote withheld," in the case of Proposal One, represents a stockholder's choice to decline to vote on a proposal. Abstentions and votes withheld will be counted as present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining a quorum. Abstentions and votes withheld will have no effect on the election of

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

directors, the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, and the advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs.

**What are broker non-votes and do they count for determining a quorum?**

Generally, broker non-votes occur when shares held by a broker in street name for a beneficial owner are not voted with respect to a particular proposal because the broker (1) has not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner and (2) lacks discretionary voting power to vote those shares. A broker is entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on routine matters, such as the ratification of the appointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm, without instructions from the beneficial owner of those shares. On the other hand, a broker is not entitled to vote shares held for a beneficial owner on non-routine matters, such as the election of directors, unless the broker has received voting instructions from the beneficial owner of such shares. Broker non-votes count for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

**If I submit a proxy, how will it be voted?**

When proxies are properly dated, executed and returned, the shares represented by such proxies will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the stockholder's instructions. If no specific instructions are given, the shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our board of directors as described above. If any matters not described in the proxy statement are properly presented at the Annual Meeting, the proxy holders will use their own judgment to determine how to vote your shares. If the Annual Meeting is postponed or adjourned, the proxy holders can vote your shares on the new meeting date as well, unless you have revoked your proxy instructions, as described under "Can I change my vote or revoke my proxy?"

**What does it mean if I receive more than one Notice or more than one set of proxy materials?**

It means that your shares are held in more than one account at the transfer agent and/or with banks or brokers. Please vote all of your shares. To ensure that all of your shares are voted, for each Notice or set of proxy materials, please submit your proxy by phone, via the Internet, or, if you received printed copies of the proxy materials, by signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed envelope.

**How can I attend and participate in the Annual Meeting?**

The Annual Meeting will be conducted via live audio webcast. You will only be able to attend and participate in the Annual Meeting online by visiting: *www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/JOBY2026*. To attend and participate in the Annual Meeting, you will need the 16-digit control number included in your Notice, on your proxy card or on the instructions that accompanied your proxy materials. If your shares are held in street name, you should contact your bank or broker to obtain your 16-digit control number. If your shares are held in street name, and you would like to vote your shares online at the Annual Meeting, you must request and obtain a valid proxy from your bank or broker that gives you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting.

The meeting webcast will begin promptly at 9:00 a.m. Pacific Time. We encourage you to access the meeting prior to the start time. Online check-in will begin at 8:45 a.m. Pacific Time, and you should allow ample time for the check-in procedures.

As part of the Annual Meeting, we will hold a live Q&A session, during which we intend to answer questions submitted online during or prior to the meeting that are pertinent to the Company and the meeting matters, as time permits. Only stockholders that have accessed the Annual Meeting as a stockholder (rather than a "Guest") will be permitted to submit questions during the Annual Meeting. We will not address questions that are, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• irrelevant to Joby's business or to the business of the Annual Meeting; or

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• out of order or not otherwise suitable for the conduct of the Annual Meeting as determined by the Executive Chairman or Corporate Secretary in their reasonable judgment.

Additional information regarding the Q&A session will be available in the "Rules of Conduct" available on the Annual Meeting webpage for stockholders that have accessed the Annual Meeting by following the procedures outlined above.

Stockholder proposals must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), and related SEC regulations under Rule 14a-8 regarding the inclusion of stockholder proposals in company-sponsored proxy materials.

Stockholders intending to present a proposal at the 2027 Annual Meeting, or to nominate a person for election as a director, but not to include the proposal in our proxy statement, must comply with the requirements set forth in our Bylaws. Our Bylaws require, among other things, that our Corporate Secretary receive written notice from the stockholder of record of their intent to present such proposal or nomination not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the one-year anniversary of the preceding year's annual meeting. Therefore, we must receive notice of such a proposal or nomination for the 2027 Annual Meeting no earlier than February 2, 2027, and no later than March 4, 2027. The notice must contain all information required by the Bylaws, a copy of which is available upon request to our Secretary.

receive such written notice not earlier than the close of business on the 90<sup>th</sup> day prior to the 2027 Annual Meeting or, if later, the close of business on the 10<sup>th</sup> day following the day on which we first publicly disclose the date of such meeting.

Our Bylaws require that any stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders must use a proxy card color other than white, which is reserved for the exclusive use by our board of directors. In connection with the 2027 annual meeting of stockholders, we intend to file a proxy statement and a WHITE proxy card with the SEC in connection with our solicitation of proxies for that meeting.

**BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE**

We are committed to good corporate governance practices. These practices provide an important framework within which our board of directors, its committees and our management can pursue our strategic objectives in order to promote the interests of our stockholders.

**Corporate Governance Guidelines**

Our board of directors has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines that set forth the composition and structure of our board of directors, responsibilities and expectations for directors, director independence standards, board committee structure and functions and other policies for the governance of our Company. Our Corporate Governance Guidelines are available without charge on the Investor Relations section of our website at *ir.jobyaviation.com*.

**Board Leadership Structure**

Our board of directors has determined that it is in Joby's best interest to maintain a separate Executive Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. The board of directors believes that separating these roles enhances its independent oversight of management and the Company's strategic planning. The board also believes a separate Executive Chairman can more effectively lead the board in objectively evaluating the performance of management, including the Chief Executive Officer. Our Executive Chairman is Paul Sciarra.

Our board of directors has also appointed Michael Huerta as Lead Independent Director. Consistent with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, if the Executive Chairman is not an independent director, the board of directors annually selects a lead independent director to preside over executive sessions of the board's independent directors, facilitate information flow between the other members of the board and the Executive Chairman, and perform other duties specified by the board.

**Our Board of Directors' Role in Risk Oversight**

Our board of directors is responsible for overseeing our risk management process. Although our board of directors does not have a standing risk management committee, it administers this oversight function directly through the board of directors as a whole, as well as through standing committees that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. Our board of directors and its committees focus on our general risk management strategy, including the most significant risks facing us over the short, intermediate and long-term, and oversee the implementation of risk management strategies by management. In addition, members of our board of directors are empowered and encouraged to recommend agenda items for meetings and to bring matters for discussion before the entire board of directors or during separate executive sessions of the non-management directors, including matters related to risk oversight.

In carrying out this responsibility the board of directors regularly discusses key areas of strategic risk with management, whether as separate agenda items or as they relate to other topics being considered by the board. For example, the board of directors regularly receives presentations from management on topics including steps to mitigate certification, regulatory, safety, environmental, social, governance, cybersecurity, legal, financial and other risks.

Our audit committee is responsible for reviewing and discussing our major financial risk exposures and the steps our management has taken to monitor and control these exposures, including guidelines and policies with respect to risk assessment and risk management. The audit committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and assists our board of directors in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities with respect to risk management. Furthermore, the audit committee communicates quarterly with our independent registered public accounting firm about risks related to our internal controls and financial reporting process.

Our nominating and corporate governance committee assesses risks related to our corporate governance practices, the independence of our board of directors, board and committee composition and performance, and monitors the effectiveness of our governance guidelines.

Our compensation committee assesses and monitors whether any of our compensation policies and programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. The compensation committee also ensures that our compensation philosophy aligns with our long-term strategy.

We believe this division of responsibilities is an effective approach for addressing the risks we face and that our board leadership structure supports this approach.

**Composition of the Board of Directors**

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our board of directors. Our board of directors is divided into three classes with staggered, three-year terms. Our directors are divided among the three classes as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class I directors (Michael Huerta, Tetsuo Ogawa and Dipender Saluja), whose terms will expire at the 2028 Annual Meeting;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class II directors (Halimah DeLaine Prado, Paul Sciarra and Laura Wright), whose terms will expire at the 2026 Annual Meeting; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Class III directors (JoeBen Bevirt, Aicha Evans and Michael Thompson), whose terms will expire at the 2027 Annual Meeting.

Our directors may be removed only for cause and by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then outstanding shares of voting stock of the Company entitled to vote at an election of directors.

Under the Sponsor Agreement (the "Sponsor Agreement") by and among the Company, Reinvent Sponsor, LLC ("Sponsor") and Reinvent Technology Partners ("RTP"), the parties thereto agreed to certain rights of the Sponsor with respect to board representation of the Company, including the appointment of Reid Hoffman as an initial Class III director and the nomination of Michael Thompson as a Class III director following the conclusion of the first term of the Class III directors.

We entered into a Memorandum of Understanding, dated as of February 20, 2021, by and between Toyota Motor Corporation ("Toyota") and Legacy Joby (the "Toyota MOU"). The terms of the Toyota MOU were later incorporated into the Second Amended and Restated Collaboration Agreement, dated as of May 22, 2025 (the "Collaboration Agreement") between Joby Aero, Inc. and Toyota. Under the Collaboration Agreement, Toyota has the right to designate for election to our board of directors up to one designee that, if elected, will result in such designee serving on the board of directors. We agreed to take all necessary actions to ensure that Toyota's designee is included in the slate of director nominees (including in any proxy statement or written consent relating to the election of directors) and to ensure that the election of Toyota's designee is recommended by our board of directors in such materials. If a person serving as Toyota's designee ceases to serve for any reason, Toyota may designate such person's successor and our board of directors will promptly fill the vacancy with such successor designee. The member of our board of directors who is currently serving as Toyota's designee is Tetsuo Ogawa.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Under the Umbrella Agreement, dated October 7, 2022 (the "Delta Agreement"), by and between the Company and Delta Air Lines, Inc. ("Delta"), the parties agreed to work together in good faith to select a nominee for appointment to our board of directors. Upon the death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office of such individual, we agreed to work in good faith to select a replacement nominee. The member of our board of directors who is currently serving as Delta's designee is Michael Huerta.

**Director Independence**

As a result of our common stock being listed on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE"), we must comply with the applicable rules of such exchange in determining whether a director is independent. The board of directors undertook a review of the independence of the individuals named above, including the transactions contemplated under the Delta Agreement, and determined that each of Aicha Evans, Halimah DeLaine Prado, Michael Huerta, Dipender Saluja, Michael Thompson and Laura Wright qualifies as "independent" as defined under the applicable NYSE rules.

**Committees of the Board of Directors**

Our board of directors directs the management of our business and affairs, as provided by Delaware law, and conducts its business through meetings of the board of directors and standing committees. We have a standing audit committee, compensation committee and nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which operates under a written charter. Our board of directors may from time to time establish other committees.

In addition, from time to time, special committees may be established under the direction of the board of directors when the board deems it necessary or advisable to address specific issues. Current copies of our standing committee charters are posted on our website, *ir.jobyaviation.com*, as required by applicable SEC and NYSE rules. The information on or available through any of such website is not deemed incorporated in this proxy and does not form part of this proxy.

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

***Audit Committee***

Our audit committee consists of Aicha Evans, Halimah DeLaine Prado and Laura Wright, with Ms. Wright serving as the chair of the committee. Each member of our audit committee qualifies as an independent director under the NYSE corporate governance standards and the independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act. In addition, each member of our audit committee is financially literate. Our board of directors has determined that Ms. Wright qualifies as an "audit committee financial expert", as defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K, and possesses financial sophistication, as defined under the rules of the NYSE.

The audit committee's responsibilities include, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• appointing, compensating, retaining, evaluating, terminating and overseeing our independent registered public accounting firm;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• discussing with our independent registered public accounting firm their independence from management;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing with our independent registered public accounting firm the scope and results of their audit;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• pre-approving all audit and permissible non-audit services to be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing the financial reporting process and discussing with management and our independent registered public accounting firm the interim and annual financial statements that we file with the SEC;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and monitoring our accounting principles, accounting policies, financial and accounting controls and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• establishing procedures for the confidential anonymous submission of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal controls or auditing matters.

***Compensation Committee***

Our compensation committee consists of Aicha Evans, Michael Huerta, and Laura Wright, with Ms. Evans serving as the chair of the committee. Ms. Evans, Mr. Huerta, and Ms. Wright are non-employee directors, as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act and are "independent" as defined under the applicable NYSE listing standards, including the standards specific to members of a compensation committee. We believe that the composition and functioning of our compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under the current NYSE listing standards.

The compensation committee's responsibilities include, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving corporate goals and objectives relevant to the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, evaluating the performance of our Chief Executive Officer in light of these goals and objectives and setting or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the compensation of our Chief Executive Officer;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and setting or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the compensation of our other executive officers;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• making recommendations to our board of directors regarding the compensation of our directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and administering our Policy for Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• reviewing and approving or making recommendations to our board of directors regarding our incentive compensation and equity-based plans and arrangements; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• appointing and overseeing any compensation consultants.

The compensation committee generally considers the Chief Executive Officer's recommendations when making decisions regarding the compensation of executive officers (other than the Chief Executive Officer). Pursuant to the compensation committee's charter, the compensation committee has the authority to retain or obtain the advice of compensation consultants, legal counsel and other advisors to assist in carrying out its responsibilities. Before selecting any such consultant, counsel or advisor, the compensation committee reviews and considers the independence of such consultant, counsel or advisor in accordance with applicable NYSE rules. We must provide appropriate funding, as determined by the compensation committee, for payment of reasonable compensation to any advisor retained by the compensation committee.

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

<u>Compensation Consultants</u>

During 2025, the compensation committee engaged Compensia, Inc. ("Compensia"), as its independent outside compensation consultant. As requested by the compensation committee, Compensia's services to the compensation committee included advising on the development of the Company's peer group and providing support and analysis regarding executive and director compensation.

All executive compensation services provided by Compensia during 2025 were conducted under the direction or authority of the compensation committee, and all work performed by Compensia was pre-approved by the compensation committee. Neither Compensia nor any of its affiliates maintains any other direct or indirect business relationships with Joby or any of our subsidiaries. The compensation committee considered whether any work provided by Compensia raised any conflict of interest for services performed during 2025 and determined that it did not.

<u>Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation</u>

During 2025, Aicha Evans, Michael Huerta and Laura Wright served on the compensation committee. During 2025, no member of the compensation committee was an officer or employee of ours, a former officer of ours or of our subsidiaries or had a relationship requiring disclosure by us under Item 404 of Regulation S-K. None of our executive officers currently serves, or has served during the last fiscal year, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee of any entity, other than Joby, that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of our board of directors.

***Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee***

Our nominating and corporate governance committee consists of Halimah DeLaine Prado, Dipender Saluja and Michael Thompson, with Ms. DeLaine Prado serving as the chair of the committee. Each member of our nominating and corporate governance committee is "independent" as defined under the applicable listing standards of NYSE and SEC rules and regulations.

The nominating and corporate governance committee's responsibilities include, among other things:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• identifying individuals qualified to become members of our board of directors, consistent with criteria approved by our board of directors;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• recommending to our board of directors the nominees for election to our board of directors at annual meetings of our stockholders;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing an evaluation of our board of directors and its committees;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• overseeing the Company's policies related to environmental, social and governance matters; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• developing and recommending to our board of directors a set of corporate governance guidelines.

We believe that the composition and functioning of our nominating and corporate governance committee meets the requirements for independence under the current NYSE listing standards.

**Board and Committee Meetings and Attendance**

Our board of directors and its committees meet regularly throughout the year, and also hold special meetings and act by written consent from time to time. During the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025, the board of directors met four times, the audit committee met eight times, the compensation committee met four times, and the nominating and corporate governance committee met four times.

During 2025, each member of our board of directors attended at least 75% of the aggregate of all meetings of our board of directors and all meetings of committees of our board of directors on which such members served that were held during the period in which such director served.

**Board Attendance at Annual Meeting of Stockholders**

Our policy is to invite and encourage each member of our board of directors to be present at our annual meeting of stockholders. Last year, eight of our nine directors attended our annual meeting of stockholders.

**Communication with Directors**

Stockholders and interested parties who wish to communicate with our board of directors, non-management members of our board of directors as a group, a committee of our board of directors or a specific member of our board of directors may do so by sending a letter addressed to the attention of our Corporate Secretary.

Attn: Corporate Secretary

**Code of Ethics**

We have a code of ethics that applies to our executive officers, directors and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller or persons performing similar functions. The code of ethics is available on our website, *ir.jobyaviation.com*. We intend to make any legally required disclosures regarding amendments to, or waivers of, provisions of our code of ethics on our website rather than by filing a Current Report on Form 8-K.

**NOMINATION PROCESS AND DIRECTOR QUALIFICATIONS**

**Nomination to the Board of Directors**

Candidates for nomination to our board of directors are selected by our board of directors based on the recommendation of our nominating and corporate governance committee in accordance with its charter, our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the criteria approved by our board of directors regarding director candidate qualifications. In recommending candidates for nomination, our nominating and corporate governance committee considers candidates recommended by directors, officers, employees, stockholders and others, using the same criteria to evaluate all candidates.

Additional information regarding the process for properly submitting stockholder nominations for candidates for nomination to our board of directors is set forth above under "When are stockholder proposals due for next year's meeting."

**Director Qualifications**

With the goal of developing a diverse, experienced and highly qualified board of directors, our nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for developing and recommending to our board of directors the desired qualifications, expertise and characteristics of members of our board of directors, including any specific qualities or skills that the committee believes are necessary for one or more of the members of our board of directors to possess.

Because the identification, evaluation and selection of qualified directors is a complex and subjective process that requires consideration of many intangible factors, and will be significantly influenced by the particular needs of our board of directors at any particular time, our board of directors has not adopted a specific set of minimum qualifications, qualities or skills that are necessary for a nominee to possess, other than those that are necessary to meet U.S. legal, regulatory and NYSE listing requirements and the provisions of our certificate of incorporation and bylaws, our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the charters of the committees of our board of directors. When considering nominees, our nominating and corporate governance committee may take into consideration many factors including, among other things, a candidate's independence, integrity, any potential conflicts of interest, skills, achievements, business understanding, financial and other expertise, breadth of experience, knowledge about our business or industry and ability to devote adequate time and effort to responsibilities of our board of directors in the context of its existing composition.

Our board of directors does not have a formal policy with respect to considering diversity when identifying or evaluating nominees. Through the nomination process, our nominating and corporate governance committee seeks to promote board membership that reflects a diversity of business experience, expertise, viewpoints, personal backgrounds and other characteristics that are expected to contribute to our board of directors' overall effectiveness.

**PROPOSAL ONE: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS**

Our board of directors currently consists of nine directors and is divided into three classes, with staggered three-year terms. Directors in Class II will stand for election at the Annual Meeting. The terms of office of directors in Class I and Class III expire at our annual meetings to be held in 2028 and 2027, respectively. At the recommendation of our nominating and corporate governance committee, our board of directors proposes that each of the nominees named below be elected as a Class II director for a three-year term expiring at our 2029 annual meeting of stockholders or until such director's successor is duly elected and qualified or until such director's earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal.

Shares represented by proxies will be voted "FOR" the election of each of the nominees named below unless the proxy is marked to withhold authority to vote. If any nominee for any reason is unable or unwilling to serve the proxies may be voted for such substitute nominee as the proxy holder might determine. Each nominee has consented to being named in this proxy statement and to serve if elected. Proxies may not be voted for more than three directors. Stockholders may not cumulate votes for the election of directors.

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

FASB ASC Topic 718 and excluding the effects of any forfeitures. As of December 31, 2025, Ms. Evans held an option to purchase 13,047 shares of our common stock. Additionally, as of December 31, 2025, each of our non-employee directors held 19,157 unvested restricted stock units that will vest on June 2, 2026.

**Deferred Compensation Arrangements with Non-Employee Directors**

We offer our non-employee directors the opportunity to defer receipt of their compensation by entering into a Deferred Compensation Agreement with the Company. Under this agreement, participants who elect to defer compensation may defer receipt of all or a portion of their equity compensation. For 2025, Aicha Evans and Michael Thompson elected to defer their equity compensation.

**Board and Committee Fees**

In December 2021, the Board approved the Company's Non-Employee Director Compensation Program (the "Program"). In March 2025, the Program was amended to add a retainer payment of $35,000 for the position of Lead Independent Director, in light of the additional work that position entails. The Program provides for annual cash retainers to be paid quarterly in arrears to each non-employee director in the following amounts, prorated in the case of non-employee directors who serve less than a full calendar quarter:

*Board Service*

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Non-Employee Director<sup>(1)</sup> | $50000.0 |
| Lead Independent Director | $35000.0 |

---

(1) In March 2026, the Program was amended to increase the Non-Employee Director annual retainer to $75,000, effective April 1, 2026.

*Committee Service*

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| | **Chair** | **Non-<br>Chair** |
| Audit Committee Member | $20000 | $10000 |
| Compensation Committee Member | $15000 | $7500 |
| Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Member | $10000 | $5000 |

---

In addition, each non-employee director will be granted an RSU award immediately following the Company's annual meeting of stockholders (the "Annual Grant"). Each Annual Grant awarded in 2025 equalled a number of RSUs calculated by dividing $150,000 by the volume weighted average price of our common stock over the 20 consecutive trading days ending on the trading day immediately preceding the date of the annual meeting. Each Annual Grant will vest in full on the earlier of the first anniversary of the grant date or the Company's next annual meeting, subject to the director's continued service on the vesting date. In March 2026, the Program was amended to increase the Annual Grant to $200,000, effective April 1, 2026.

Directors may elect to receive all or a portion of the cash compensation described above in the form of fully vested RSUs, calculated in the manner described above (a "Retainer Award"). In addition, our non-employee directors may elect to defer the issuance of shares to be issued pursuant to an Annual Grant or a Retainer Award until the earlier of (i) a fixed date of the director's choosing, (ii) such director's termination of service or (iii) a change of control of the Company.

Any equity award granted under the Program will immediately vest prior to any change of control of the Company.

The non-employee director compensation program is intended to provide a total compensation package that enables us to attract and retain qualified and experienced individuals to serve as directors and to align our directors' interests with those of our stockholders.

**PROPOSAL TWO: RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF**

**INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM**

**Change in Our Certifying Accountants**

As previously disclosed in the Form 8-K filed with the SEC on March 6, 2026 (the "Form 8-K"), on March 2, 2026, the audit committee approved the dismissal of Deloitte & Touche LLP ("Deloitte") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately.

Deloitte's audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainties, audit scope or accounting principles.

In connection with the audits of the Company's consolidated financial statements for each of the fiscal years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, and during the subsequent interim period through March 2, 2026, there were no (1) disagreements (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) with Deloitte on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to Deloitte's satisfaction, would have caused Deloitte to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with Deloitte's opinion to the subject matter financial statements for such period or (2) no "reportable events" (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

We provided Deloitte with a copy of the disclosures we made pursuant to Item 4.01 in the Form 8-K and requested that they furnish a letter addressed to the SEC, which was filed as Exhibit 16.1 to the Form 8-K.

**Appointment of PwC**

On March 2, 2026, our audit committee appointed PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC") as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2026. Our board of directors has directed that this appointment be submitted to our stockholders for ratification at the Annual Meeting. Although ratification of the appointment of PwC is not required, we value the opinions of our stockholders and believe that stockholder ratification of the appointment is a good corporate governance practice. If this proposal is not approved at the Annual Meeting, our audit committee will reconsider its appointment of PwC as our independent registered public accounting firm.

Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and they will be given an opportunity to make a statement at the Annual Meeting if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

**Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm Fees and Services**

The following table presents the aggregate fees billed by Deloitte to us for the services related to the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024.

| Audit related fees |  |  |
| Tax fees |  |  |

(2)The Company made a change to the method of allocating fees billed for services related to the review of the Company's registration statements on Forms S-3 and S-8 for the purposes of this disclosure. The change resulted in $341,810 being reallocated from "Audit related fees" to "Audit fees" and $1,895 being reallocated from "Audit related fees" to "All other fees" for 2024.

**Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm**

Our audit committee's policy is to pre-approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm, the scope of services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm and the fees for the services to be performed. These services may include audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. Pre-approval is detailed as to the particular service or category of services and is generally subject to a specific budget. Our independent registered public accounting firm and management are required to periodically report to the audit committee regarding the extent of services provided by our independent registered public accounting firm in accordance with this pre-approval, and the fees for the services performed to date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, at the Annual Meeting, our stockholders will have the opportunity to cast a non-binding, advisory vote on the compensation of our NEOs. Accordingly, we are asking you to approve the following resolution at the Annual Meeting:

**COMPENSATION DISCUSSION & ANALYSIS**

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis ("CD&A") provides information on the goals and objectives of our executive compensation program, including our compensation philosophy as it relates to our named executive officers ("NEOs"). For 2025, our NEOs were:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• JoeBen Bevirt – Chief Executive Officer and Chief Architect

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Rodrigo Brumana – Chief Financial Officer

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Didier Papadopoulos – President of Aircraft OEM

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Kate DeHoff – Chief Legal Officer and Corporate Secretary

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Bonny Simi – President of Operations

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Nick Kalayjian – former Chief Hardware Officer

Mr. Brumana was hired in May 2025 and appointed as our Chief Financial Officer and serves as our principal financial officer. Prior to that, Mr. Bevirt served as our acting principal financial officer.

Mr. Kalayjian was appointed to the newly created role of Chief Hardware Officer on January 13, 2025. The role was established to focus on improving hardware engineering efficiency, leveraging Mr. Kalayjian's expertise in automotive engineering. Upon further reflection and discussion with Mr. Kalayjian, we determined that the strategic objectives of the role were best achieved by integrating its functions directly into our established engineering operations. Mr. Kalayjian ceased serving as our Chief Hardware Officer on March 28, 2025, when we eliminated the role. Mr. Kalayjian continued to provide services in an advisory capacity through May 9, 2025.

**Compensation Summary**

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain the executive leadership necessary to meet our ambitious goal of certifying our aircraft and launching our commercial air taxi service. Until we are able to certify our aircraft and launch our commercial passenger service, we are highly focused on preserving cash. Because of this, we do not pay annual cash bonuses and have weighted our executive compensation more heavily in favor of equity awards, including short-term and long-term incentive awards with performance conditions tied to our certification goals. We believe this approach best aligns the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders.

We have designed our executive compensation program to align with industry best practices, including the following:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Committee Composition** | All of our Compensation Committee members are independent directors. |
| **Compensation Consultant** | Our Compensation Committee retains an independent compensation consultant to provide data and analysis to ensure that our executive compensation is competitive and consistent with market "best practices."  |
| **Clawback Policy** | We have adopted a clawback policy that complies with both SEC rules and the applicable NYSE listing standards, applies to current and former executive officers and requires the disgorgement of erroneously awarded incentive-based compensation in the event of an accounting restatement.  |
| **Stock Ownership Guidelines** | We require our executive officers and the non-employee members of our board of directors to comply with meaningful stock ownership requirements, subject to a customary phase-in period. |
| **Limited Perquisites** | We provide only limited perquisites and other personal benefits to our executive officers.  |
| **Say-On-Pay Vote** | We hold an annual advisory vote on the compensation of our named executive officers.  |

---

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **No Severance Payments and Benefits** | None of our executive officers have provisions in their employment agreements guaranteeing severance payments and benefits in the event of their termination of employment.  |
| **No "Single-Trigger" Vesting Acceleration** | None of our executive officers have provisions for "single-trigger" acceleration of equity award vesting in connection with a change-of-control of the Company.  |
| **Risk Assessment** | Our Compensation Committee performs an annual review of the risks related to our compensation programs.  |
| **No Hedging/Pledging** | All employees, including our NEOs, are prohibited from hedging or pledging Joby stock or engaging in derivative securities transactions.  |
| **Stockholder Engagement** | We value stockholder feedback on our compensation programs and other relevant matters. During 2025, members of our management team and Compensation Committee were available to speak with stockholders who expressed an interest in providing feedback on our compensation programs.  |

---

**Stockholder Advisory Vote on Named Executive Officer Compensation**

The Compensation Committee reviewed the result of the non-binding advisory stockholder vote on the compensation of our named executive officers conducted at our 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In view of the approval by a substantial majority of our stockholders of our executive compensation program as described in our 2025 proxy statement (reflecting approximately 97% of the shares represented in person or by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote), we have not implemented significant changes to our executive compensation program since our 2025 Annual Meeting.

**Objectives of Our Executive Compensation Program**

Our executive compensation program is designed to attract and retain the executive leadership necessary to meet our ambitious goal of certifying our aircraft and launching our commercial air taxi service while also complying with the rigorous compliance demands of being a publicly-traded company in a highly-regulated industry.

Our compensation philosophy weights the target total direct compensation opportunities for our NEOs more heavily towards equity-based compensation and our short-term incentive awards are payable in equity rather than in cash. We believe that this compensation philosophy and the equity awards described below effectively incentivize performance and align the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders, while preserving the cash necessary to operate our business.

**Compensation Decision Making Process**

***Compensation Committee***

Our Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the compensation of our NEOs. The Compensation Committee charter gives the Compensation Committee authority to determine the compensation for our CEO or, if directed by the Board, CEO compensation will be determined in conjunction with a majority of the independent directors. In 2025, the Compensation Committee approved the compensation for all of our NEOs, including our CEO.

The Compensation Committee meets regularly throughout the year to review and discuss the Company's compensation philosophy, progress against its goals, executive performance, competitive market data analytics, and any updates to laws, rules, or best practices. The Compensation Committee discusses these matters with management and with its compensation consultant and is empowered to retain external legal and other advisors as necessary.

The Compensation Committee meets regularly with key members of our People team who provide updates on headcount, budget, employee engagement, and internal pay equity. The Compensation Committee also discusses the performance of our NEOs, with our Board Chair and Chief Executive Officer (other than with respect to himself). Our NEOs are not present for discussions of, or decisions related to, their own compensation.

***Compensation Consultant***

The Compensation Committee retained Compensia, Inc., a national compensation consulting firm ("Compensia"), as its compensation consultant for 2025. The Compensation Committee reviews its engagement with Compensia annually to assess its independence and any potential conflicts of interest. Compensia's services in 2025 included:

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• providing relevant financial and other data to assist the Compensation Committee with the selection and updating of the compensation peer group as described below;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• collecting and analyzing data from peer group companies, as well as from the broad-based compensation surveys described below, to provide an understanding of the competitiveness of the base salary levels, short-term and long-term incentive compensation opportunities, and the overall target total direct compensation opportunities of our NEOs;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• assisting with the review of the executive compensation disclosure required in our proxy statement, including the required pay ratio disclosure; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• updating the Compensation Committee on compensation trends, including "best practices," and regulatory developments.

**Compensation Peer Group**

In September 2024, with Compensia's assistance, the Compensation Committee reviewed and updated its compensation peer group to be used as a reference when making compensation decisions for 2025. This peer group was generally developed from publicly-traded companies in the aviation, automotive, clean energy, electrical component & equipment, electric vehicle, semiconductor and technology hardware & equipment industries with market capitalizations of approximately $405 million to $23.6 billion (with a target range of 0.25 – 4.0 times our 30-day average market capitalization of approximately $4.2 billion as of August 2024).

Based on the foregoing review, the Compensation Committee determined that it was appropriate to maintain the same peer group as the prior year, with two removals: Fisker, which had filed for bankruptcy, and LanzaTech Global, whose market capitalization had dropped significantly below the target range. The Compensation Committee approved a compensation peer group for 2025 consisting of AeroVironment, Archer Aviation, Aurora Innovation, Bloom Energy, ChargePoint Holdings, Enovix, Eve Holding, First Solar, Lucid Group, Luminar Technologies, Lyft, Nikola, Novanta, Plug Power, QuantumScape, Rocket Lab USA, Sunrun, and Viasat (collectively, the "Peer Group"). At the time the Peer Group data was approved, we were at the 68th percentile by market capitalization compared to the other members of the Peer Group.

In addition, the competitive market analysis prepared by Compensia for the Compensation Committee contained data drawn from the Radford Technology and Aerospace Survey (the "Technology and Aerospace Survey") as well as data from the Radford San Francisco Bay Area technology survey (the "Technology Survey"), focusing on the source most applicable to the position being evaluated.

**Compensation Elements**

For 2025, our executive compensation program included four primary elements:

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **<u>Element</u>** | **<u>Purpose</u>** |
| **Base Salary** | Base salary is designed to provide our NEOs with a predictable level of fixed compensation for the day-to-day performance of their roles. Base salaries are set at levels designed to be competitive in a given market so that our NEOs are not overly dependent on the achievement of performance bonus award targets or equity appreciation in a way that might encourage excessive risk taking. |
| **Restricted Stock Units That Are Granted upon Achievement of Performance Goals ("2025 PSU Awards")** | We maintain a short-term performance bonus program under which restricted stock units ("RSUs") are granted that are earned based upon the achievement of key goals related to our development and certification timelines and, after achievement, vest based on a continued service requirement. These goals (the "PSU Goals"), which were the same for all employees, including our NEOs, were designed to reward and focus the efforts of all employees in these areas. During 2025, the PSU Awards program was split into two tranches, covering discrete goals for the first and second half of the year.  |

---

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **<u>Element</u>** | **<u>Purpose</u>** |
| **Equity Awards with Service-Based Vesting ("Service-Based RSU Awards")** | RSU awards granted with service-based vesting requirements are intended to align the interests of our NEOs with those of our stockholders and to achieve our retention objectives. We grant RSUs when an NEO begins employment and may grant additional awards on an annual basis for incentive and retention purposes. In 2025, only Mr. Brumana, Mr. Kalayjian and Ms. DeHoff received Service-Based RSUs. |
| **Long-Term Performance Awards ("LTI Awards")** | To provide additional long-term incentives for our NEOs, in 2025 we also granted performance-based awards to our NEOs that may be earned and vest over three years upon the achievement of certain pre-established operational milestones.  |

---

**Base Salary**

Base salaries are designed to provide our NEOs with a predictable level of compensation for the day-to-day performance of their roles. The Compensation Committee approved increases to our NEOs annual base salaries for 2025, effective as of January 4, 2025, as follows:

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **2024 Base Salary** | **2025 Base Salary** | **Percentage Increase** |
| JoeBen Bevirt | $639000 | $658170 | 3.0% |
| Didier Papadopoulos | $535600 | $551668 | 3.0% |
| Kate DeHoff | $432600 | $445578 | 3.0% |
| Bonny Simi | $483000 | $497490 | 3.0% |

---

The Compensation Committee determined that modest increases were appropriate based on its review of the competitive market analysis prepared by Compensia and given our emphasis on preserving cash as we continue to focus our efforts on our certification objectives. The Compensation Committee also considered internal pay equity and executive performance in determining that the increases were appropriate.

Mr. Brumana was hired in May 2025 with an initial annual base salary of $535,000, and Mr. Kalayjian was hired in January 2025 with an initial annual base salary of $500,000. The initial annual base salaries were determined based upon negotiations with each executive, and the Compensation Committee determined that both were appropriate for their roles and experience based upon competitive market analyses prepared by Compensia at the time they were hired.

**Equity Awards**

We grant RSUs and performance-based restricted stock unit awards ("PSUs") to our NEOs under our 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the "2021 Plan"). These awards are designed to attract and retain our NEOs and to align their interests with the interests of our stockholders. Each RSU represents the right to receive one share of our common stock upon vesting, and each PSU represents the right to receive up to 2 shares of our common stock upon vesting, depending on the specific terms of the PSU Award. Any unvested RSUs and PSU Awards are forfeited if the executive ceases to provide services to the Company prior to the applicable vesting date.

In 2025, the Compensation Committee granted the following types of equity awards to our NEOs:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.New Hire RSUs, granted to Mr. Brumana and Mr. Kalayjian in connection with the start of their employment (the "New Hire Awards");

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.PSUs granted under our 2025 performance equity award program (the "2025 PSU Program"), which are earned based on the achievement of the PSU Goals and vest following achievement based on continued service;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;3.RSUs that may be earned over three years based upon the achievement of the LTI award goals and immediately vest upon achievement (the "LTI Awards"); and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.Additional RSUs granted to recognize extraordinary service during the year (the "Additional Awards").

**<u>"New-Hire" Service-Based RSU Awards</u>**

In January 2025, the Compensation Committee granted a New Hire Award of 620,067 RSUs to Mr. Kalayjian in connection with his appointment as our Chief Hardware Officer. The award was to vest over four years, with 25% of the award vesting on February 1, 2026, and the remaining 75% vesting in equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to Mr.

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

Kalayjian's continued employment through each applicable vesting date. Because Mr. Kalayjian's employment ended in May 2025, none of the RSUs subject to the award vested.

In June 2025, the Compensation Committee granted a New Hire Award of 1,174,743 RSUs to Mr. Brumana in connection with his appointment as our Chief Financial Officer. The award vests over four years, with 25% of the award vesting on June 1, 2026, and the remaining 75% vesting in equal quarterly installments thereafter, subject to Mr. Brumana's continued employment through each applicable vesting date.

The Compensation Committee determined that the New Hire Awards were necessary and appropriate to attract individuals with the necessary skills and experience after reviewing the competitive market analyses prepared by Compensia at the time each NEO was hired and based upon the individual negotiations with each executive.

**<u>2025 PSU Awards</u>**

At the beginning of 2025, the Compensation Committee decided to split the 2025 PSU Program, which we use to provide near-term incentive compensation in lieu of cash bonuses, into two six-month programs. The Compensation Committee determined that this was appropriate due to the level of complexity that is inherent in the final stages of the certification process, especially for a new type of aircraft, and would focus employees on key near-term operational milestones. All of our employees, including our NEOs, were eligible to participate in the 2025 PSU Program. Much like our previous performance programs, the pre-established performance goals for the 2025 PSU Program covered three broad areas aligned with our overall Company focus on development and certification, manufacturing, and commercialization. The goals, which were recommended by management and approved by our Compensation Committee, were designed to be challenging and to reward outstanding performance against our operational goals and objectives.

Our Compensation Committee believed that the performance goals selected for the 2025 PSU Program reflected attainable milestones for our employees, including our NEOs, that would further our objectives for progressing our certification, manufacturing and commercialization goals over the next year, thereby advancing our stockholders' interests. Each of these performance goals involved financial, operational, technical, and strategy information, the disclosure of which would cause competitive harm to the Company. The Compensation Committee believed that these goals were achievable with consistent and focused effort at the target level, and would provide the opportunity to earn additional shares at the maximum level to reward exceptional performance related to "stretch" goals, thereby providing incentives that would motivate our employees, including our NEOs, to meet and potentially exceed our target performance levels.

In February 2025, the Compensation Committee selected the performance goals and approved the target and maximum performance levels for the first half of the year (the "H1'25 PSU Program"). Under the H1'25 PSU Program, the amount earned by each of our NEOs under the PSU awards was to be between 0-125% of the target number of PSUs subject to the awards, based on our level of achievement measured against specified pre-established operational, manufacturing, and strategic business goals for the first six months of 2025, with earned PSUs vesting based on continued service through each of three vesting dates in 2026 (the "H1'25 PSU Awards").

For our H1'25 PSU Program, the Compensation Committee approved five primary goals, with three goals focused on certification, one focused on manufacturing, and one focused on commercialization readiness and supporting strategic partnerships.

Our Compensation Committee established the target number of PSUs subject to each executive's H1'25 PSU Award by taking 20% of each executive's annual base salary and dividing that dollar amount by the 20-trading day volume-weighted average price of our common stock ("VWAP") as of a specified date prior to the award grant date. Using this methodology, the target and maximum number of PSUs for our NEOs H1'25 PSU Awards were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Number of PSUs (#)** | **Maximum Number of Shares to be Issued at Vesting (#)** |
| JoeBen Bevirt | 14408 | 18010 |
| Rodrigo Brumana<sup>1</sup> | 4021 | 5026 |
| Didier Papadopoulos | 12076 | 15095 |
| Kate DeHoff | 9754 | 12192 |
| Bonny Simi | 10890 | 13612 |
| Nick Kalayjian | 11273 | 14091 |

---

<sup>1</sup> Mr. Brumana was granted a pro-rated H1'25 PSU Award in June 2025 based on his date of hire.

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

In July 2025, our Compensation Committee evaluated, measured, and certified our actual results against each of the performance goals and determined that they had been achieved as follows, resulting in our NEOs earning 91% of the target number of PSUs subject to their H1'25 PSU Awards:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Goal Achieved** | **Target Achievement** | **Actual Achievement** |
| Certification Goal #1 | 20% | 15% |
| Manufacturing Goal #1 | 20% | 14.5% |
| Certification Goal #2 | 20% | 16.5% |
| Certification Goal #3 | 20% | 22.75% |
| Commercialization Goal #1 | 20% | 22.25% |

The PSUs earned under the H1'25 PSU Awards vested in three equal installments on January 12, 2026, February 9, 2026, and March 9, 2026, subject to the NEO continuing to provide services to us as of the applicable vesting date.

In July 2025, the Compensation Committee selected the performance goals and approved the target and maximum performance levels for the second half of the year (the "H2'25 PSU Program"). Under the H2'25 PSU Program, the amount earned by each of our NEOs under the PSU awards was to be between 0-200% of the target number of PSUs subject to the awards based on our level of achievement measured against specified pre-established operational, manufacturing, and business goals for the second six months of 2025, with earned PSUs vesting based on continued service through two vesting dates in 2026 (the "H2'25 PSU Awards'). In addition, the H2'25 PSU Awards introduced a timing component, whereby performance goals that were completed up to 50 days earlier than the target date of December 31, 2025 would result in an above target achievement payout and goals that were completed up to 50 days after the target date of December 31, 2025 would result in a below target achievement payout, in each case calculated on a linear "straight-line" basis.

For the H2'25 PSU Program, the Compensation Committee approved six primary goals focused on certification, manufacturing, and commercial readiness, with some goals containing elements of both certification and manufacturing.

Our Compensation Committee established the target number of PSUs subject to each executive's H2'25 PSU Award by taking 20% of each executive's annual base salary and dividing that dollar amount by the 20-trading day VWAP as of a specified date prior to the award grant date. Using this methodology, the target and maximum number of PSUs for our NEOs H2'25 PSU Awards were as follows:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **Number of PSUs (#)** | **Maximum Number of Shares to be Issued at Vesting (#)** |
| JoeBen Bevirt | 10056 | 20112 |
| Rodrigo Brumana | 8174 | 16348 |
| Didier Papadopoulos | 8428 | 16856 |

In March 2026, our Compensation Committee evaluated, measured, and certified our actual results against each of the performance goals and determined that they had been achieved as follows, resulting in our NEOs earning 38% of the target number of PSUs subject to their H2'25 PSU Awards:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Goal Achieved** | **Target Achievement** | **Actual Achievement** |
| Goal #1 – airworthiness certificate for SN 101 and completion of tethered hover | 50% | —% |
| Goal #2 | 10% | 20.0% |
| Goal #3 | 10% | 1.6% |
| Goal #4 | 10% | 1.4% |
| Goal #5 | 10% | —% |
| Goal #6 | 10% | 15.0% |
| **Total** | 100% | 38% |

The PSUs earned under the H2'25 PSU Awards vested in two equal installments on March 9, 2026 and April 7, 2026, subject to the NEO continuing to provide services to us as of the applicable vesting date

The H2'25 PSU Program was designed with performance goals that would be challenging but, if fully achieved, would demonstrate exceptional progress across our certification, manufacturing, and commercialization efforts. In December 2025, the Compensation Committee exercised its discretion to extend the target dates (and corresponding final achievement deadlines) for Goals 3 and 4 by two weeks, and Goal 5 by one week, in recognition of the potential impact of the six-week government shutdown that occurred during October and November 2025. While we made substantial progress across all six goals during the second half of 2025, the overall achievement level was significantly below target because a number of the goals were not fully completed as of the date required for payment. For example, Goal #1, which accounted for 50% of the target achievement, was completed on March 3, 2026. While this did not result in any payout under the H2'25 PSU Program, it did represent a significant milestone for the Company and the certification program

Our NEOs earned the following shares under the H1'25 PSU Program and the H2'25 PSU Program, which vested in 2026, as described above:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **Name** | **H1'25 PSU Program** | **H2'25 PSU Program** |
| JoeBen Bevirt | 13,111 | 3,821 |
| Rodrigo Brumana | 3,659 | 3,106 |
| Didier Papadopoulos | 10,989 | 3,202 |
| Kate DeHoff | 8,876 | 2,586 |
| Bonny Simi | 9,909 | 2,888 |

**<u>LTI Awards</u>**

In June 2025, the Compensation Committee granted the following LTI Awards to our NEOs, which were designed to provide long-term incentives tied to the achievement of the goals related to certification and operation of our aircraft. The goals selected for the LTI Awards involve confidential information, the disclosure of which would cause competitive harm to the Company. The Compensation Committee believed that these goals were challenging but achievable with consistent and focused effort, with additional incentives for earlier achievement of the goals.

The LTI Awards will be earned between 0-160% of the target amount and will vest upon the achievement of certain specified goals, subject to the NEO's continued employment through each applicable vesting date. If any of the specified goals are not achieved by the third anniversary of the grant date, the portion of the LTI Award related to that goal will be forfeited.

---

The Compensation Committee believed that providing the opportunity to earn up to 160% of the target amount of the LTI Awards if certain goals were achieved on accelerated timelines would provide substantial incentives that are aligned with the interests of our stockholders.

**<u>Ms. DeHoff's Additional Awards</u>**

In January 2025, the Compensation Committee granted an award of 22,547 RSUs to Ms. DeHoff, and in June 2025, the Compensation Committee granted her an additional award of 29,368 RSUs in recognition of the significant additional responsibilities that she undertook managing day-to-day activities of the finance team following the departure of Matt Field as our Chief Financial Officer. The former award vested on February 1, 2026, and the latter award will vest on June 1, 2026, subject to Ms. DeHoff's continued employment as of that date.

**Additional Cash Compensation**

In January 2025, the Compensation Committee approved a signing bonus of $125,000 for Mr. Kalayjian. Pursuant to the terms of his offer letter, the signing bonus was subject to repayment in the event that Mr. Kalayjian voluntarily resigned his position or if his employment was terminated for Cause (as defined in the offer letter) before the one-year anniversary of his employment start date. Because Mr. Kalayjian's departure was due to the elimination of his role and was not a termination of employment for Cause or a voluntary resignation, the signing bonus was not required to be repaid.

In January 2025, the Compensation Committee also approved a $115,000 cash bonus to be paid to Ms. DeHoff in recognition of the significant additional responsibilities that she undertook managing day-to-day activities of the finance team following the departure of Matt Field as our Chief Financial Officer. Additionally, in June 2025, the Compensation Committee approved a second $115,000 cash bonus to Ms. DeHoff in light of the continued additional responsibilities she held until the appointment of Mr. Brumana as Chief Financial Officer in May 2025.

In June 2025, the Compensation Committee approved and ratified a signing bonus of $165,000 for Mr. Brumana. The terms and conditions of Mr. Brumana's signing bonus are described below under *"Employment and Offer Letters."*

The Compensation Committee determined that the above cash bonuses were appropriate based on the competitive market for executives with the experience demonstrated by Mr. Kalayjian, Mr. Brumana and Ms. DeHoff, and in the case of Ms. DeHoff, in recognition of the substantial additional contributions that she had made during the year.

**Other Elements of Compensation** 

***Retirement Savings and Health and Welfare Benefits***

We maintain a 401(k) retirement savings plan for our employees, including our NEOs, who satisfy certain eligibility requirements. Our NEOs are eligible to participate in the 401(k) plan on the same terms as other full-time employees. We match up to 50% of a participant's annual eligible contribution to the 401(k) plan, up to a maximum of $4,000. We believe that providing a vehicle for tax-deferred retirement savings through our 401(k) plan adds to the overall desirability of our executive compensation program and further incentivizes our NEOs in accordance with our compensation policies.

Our NEOs are eligible to participate in our standard health and welfare plans on the same basis as other full-time employees. These health and welfare plans include medical, dental, and vision benefits; short-term and long-term disability insurance; and supplemental life and accidental death and disability insurance.

***Perquisites and Other Personal Benefits***

Executive perquisites and other personal benefits are not part of our general compensation philosophy. However, when we believe it is necessary to attract or retain an individual, we may choose to provide perquisites or another personal benefit to an NEO, as determined on a case-by-case basis. Other than the geographic differential compensation described below, we did not provide our NEOs with any perquisites or other personal benefits in 2025.

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

***Relocation Packages***

In certain circumstances, where we find compelling candidates for key roles, we may provide relocation assistance to incentivize them to move closer to our Santa Cruz, California headquarters or other office locations. In determining whether such assistance is warranted, the Compensation Committee considers the criticality of the role, the availability of candidates in the local talent pool, and the expected contributions from the relocating executive.

In June 2022, the Compensation Committee approved relocation assistance packages for Mr. Papadopoulos and Ms. Simi. In determining that such relocation assistance was warranted, the Compensation Committee took into consideration each NEO's past performance, the criticality of his or her role and responsibilities in achieving the Company's near-term and long-term objectives as well as the significant cost of living differences between the location from which he or she was relocating and the Santa Cruz area. The Compensation Committee also considered that each was initially hired with the understanding that they would periodically commute from their primary residence to the Company's offices. However, subsequent increases in the demands of their roles made it desirable that they relocate to be available onsite full-time.

The relocation packages consisted of a one-time bonus to be paid to the NEO upon acceptance by a seller of the executive's offer to purchase a residence within 50 miles of one of our California locations (the "Down Payment Assistance") and additional cash compensation (the "Geographic Differential Compensation"). The Down Payment Assistance is subject to a pro-rata repayment obligation by the NEO if he or she voluntarily resigns or his or her employment is terminated for "cause" (as defined in the 2021 Plan) within three years after payment of the Down Payment Assistance. Mr. Papadopoulos received the Down Payment Assistance in 2022 and Ms. Simi received the Down Payment Assistance in 2024. The Geographic Differential Compensation is not considered part of the NEO's base salary for the purpose of calculating any bonus, equity award or other compensation and will be terminated if the NEO does not maintain a residence in the specified area. The Geographic Differential Compensation is an annual payment that was reevaluated by the Compensation Committee beginning in 2025 to determine whether it continues to be appropriate in light of the Company's compensation philosophy. During 2025, the Compensation Committee determined that it continued to be appropriate to offer the Geographic Differential Compensation, which both Mr. Papadopoulos and Ms. Simi received.

**Other Executive Compensation Arrangements** 

***Stock Ownership Guidelines***

We maintain meaningful stock ownership guidelines for our executives. Our executives and non-employee directors are required to hold a number of shares of our common stock with a total value equal to a designated multiple of their base salary, as provided in the table below. Ownership is determined based on the combined value of the following executive holdings: (a) shares of our common stock owned outright (individually or jointly) or in a trust controlled by or for the benefit of the executive, the executive's spouse or an immediate family member; (b) vested RSUs or PSUs; or (c) shares of our common stock held in held in a 401(k) plan account. Executives have until five years from the later of December 15, 2023, or the date of hire to comply with the ownership guidelines (the "Phase in Period"). Under the guidelines, if an executive has not reached the minimum ownership guideline by the end of the Phase in Period, he or she must retain 50% of the shares of our common stock acquired upon the exercise, vesting or delivery of any equity awards granted by us after the satisfaction of the exercise price, transaction costs and withholding taxes incurred in connection with such exercise, vesting or delivery.

The stock ownership guidelines are set forth below.

**Stock Ownership Guidelines**

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

***Clawback Policy***

We maintain a Policy for Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation (the "Clawback Policy") that complies with both SEC rules and the applicable New York Stock Exchange listing standards. The Clawback Policy applies to our current and former executive officers and subjects their incentive-based compensation received on or after October 2, 2023 to clawback in the event our Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement to correct its material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under U.S. securities laws. In these circumstances, the Clawback Policy requires the Company to recover, reasonably promptly, the portion of incentive-based compensation that is deemed to have been erroneously awarded, unless the Compensation Committee (which administers the policy) determines that recovery would be impracticable and that one or more of the allowable impracticability conditions under SEC rules has been met. Recovery is required whether or not the applicable executive officer engaged in misconduct or otherwise caused or contributed to the requirement for the restatement. In addition to these requirements, the Clawback Policy provides the Compensation Committee with broad discretion as to the manner of recovery of erroneously awarded compensation, including recovery of compensation under our PSU Program, RSUs, and other equity incentive awards.

Each of our executive officers has agreed to the terms of the Clawback Policy and acknowledged that their compensation may be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture and/or recoupment as required thereby.

***Policies and Practices Related to the Grant of Equity Awards Close in Time to the Release of Material Nonpublic Information***

We did not grant stock options or option-like instruments to any employee during 2025. Since 2021, we have exclusively granted restricted stock unit and performance stock unit awards under our compensation program. Accordingly, we do not have a formal policy related to the timing of option awards in relation to the release of material nonpublic information. Awards of restricted stock units and performance stock units are generally granted at quarterly meetings of our Compensation Committee, and occasionally granted via Unanimous Written Consent between meetings. The Compensation Committee does not take material nonpublic information into account when determining the timing or terms of awards, and we have not timed the disclosure of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.

***Section 4999 Policy*** 

We do not provide any tax "gross-ups" to cover the excise taxes imposed under Section 4999 in connection with a change in control of the Company or otherwise.

***Tax and Accounting Considerations***

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the "Code") generally disallows a tax deduction for compensation in excess of $1.0 million paid to all former and current named executive officers. Our board of directors and the Compensation Committee may, in its judgment, authorize compensation payments that exceed the deductibility limits under Section 162(m) when it believes that such payments are appropriate to attract, retain, and reward executive talent and are in the best interests of our stockholders.

Section 409A of the Code imposes additional taxes on certain non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements that do not comply with its requirements. We have and will continue to endeavor to structure our compensation arrangements to be exempt from or comply with Section 409A so as to avoid the adverse tax consequences associated therewith. We have not provided any executives or other employees with any tax "gross-up" in connection with Section 409A.

We account for stock-based compensation in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718, which requires us to recognize compensation expense for share-based payments (including stock options and other forms of equity compensation). The Compensation Committee takes into account the compensation expense recognized under FASB ASC Topic 718 when granting equity awards.

***Derivatives Trading, Hedging and Pledging Policies***

We believe our Insider Trading Compliance Policy is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and the applicable national securities exchange listing standards. It is also our policy as a company to comply with all applicable securities laws when transacting in our own securities. A copy of our Insider Trading Compliance Policy, which applies to employees, officers, directors, board observers and consultants, as well as any family member or member of the same household of any such person, was filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 27, 2026. Our Insider Trading Compliance Policy specifically prohibits these individuals from engaging in transactions involving (i) short sales of the

------

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

Company's securities, (ii) the purchase or writing of put or call options or other derivative securities, hedging or other monetization transactions, (iii) margin purchases and pledges of Company securities, including as collateral to secure loans.

***Employment and Offer Letters***

Under the terms of her employment offer letter, Ms. Simi also received a stock option to purchase 1,512,522 shares of the Company's common stock, vesting over six years, subject to her continued service as of each applicable vesting date.

We also entered into a Relocation Assistance Letter with Ms. Simi in July 2022 pursuant to which we agreed to pay the Down Payment Assistance and the Geographic Differential Compensation as described above under *"<u>[Relocation Packages](#i70698ac6b39246808d978da7cf3c154f_30015)</u>."*

*Kate DeHoff*

In December 2020, we entered into an employment offer letter with Ms. DeHoff that sets forth the terms and conditions of her employment, including her initial annual base salary of $350,000 and an equity award in the form of a time-based stock option. In January 2021, Ms. DeHoff was awarded a new hire equity award of 385,522 RSUs vesting over six years, subject to her continued service as of each applicable vesting date, in lieu of the time-based stock option award provided for in her offer letter.

*Rodrigo Brumana*

In April 2025, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. Brumana that sets forth the terms and conditions of his employment, including his initial annual base salary of $535,000. Mr. Brumana's offer letter also included a $165,000 signing bonus, which was payable in connection with Mr. Brumana's first day of employment (the "Brumana Signing Bonus") and a second $165,000 bonus to be paid at the completion of the one-year anniversary of his employment start date (the "Brumana Anniversary Bonus"). Mr. Brumana has agreed to repay the Brumana Signing Bonus, on a prorated basis, if he voluntarily resigns or his employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the offer letter) before the one-year anniversary of his employment start date. Mr. Brumana has also agreed to repay the Brumana Anniversary Bonus, on a prorated basis, if he voluntarily resigns or his employment is terminated for Cause (as defined in the offer letter) before the two-year anniversary of his employment start date.

In addition, the offer letter provided that Mr. Brumana would be granted a New Hire Award with the number of RSUs determined by dividing $8,000,000 by the 20-trading day VWAP as of a specified date prior to the grant date (the "Brumana New Hire Award") and a long-term incentive award consisting of a number of PSUs determined by dividing $2,000,000 by the 20-trading day VWAP as of a specified date prior to the date of grant (the "Brumana LTI Award") on terms and conditions consistent with those of similarly situated executives.

The Brumana New Hire Award vests over four years, with 25% of the award vesting on the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 1/16th of the award vesting on each quarterly anniversary thereafter, subject to continued service. The Brumana LTI Award is earned based on the achievement of the same goals applicable to the LTI awards as described above under "Equity Awards – LTI Awards".

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

*Mr. Kalayjian*

In October 2024, we entered into an employment offer letter with Mr. Kalayjian that set forth the terms and conditions of his employment, including his initial annual base salary of $500,000. Mr. Kalayjian's offer letter also included a $125,000 signing bonus, which was payable in connection with Mr. Kalayjian's first day of employment (the "Kalayjian Signing Bonus"). Mr. Kalayjian agreed to repay the Kalayjian Signing Bonus, on a prorated basis, if he voluntarily resigned or his employment was terminated for Cause (as defined in the offer letter) before the one-year anniversary of his start date. Because Mr. Kalayjian's departure was due to the elimination of his role and was not a termination of employment for Cause or a voluntary resignation, the signing bonus was not required to be repaid. In addition, the offer letter provided that Mr. Kalayjian would be granted a number of RSUs determined by dividing $5,500,000 by the 20-trading day VWAP as of a specified date prior to the grant date (the "Kalayjian New Hire Award") and a long-term incentive award consisting of a number of PSUs determined by dividing $1,500,000 by the 20-trading day VWAP as of a specified date prior to the grant date (the "Kalayjian LTI Award") on terms and conditions consistent with those of similarly situated executives. The Kalayjian New Hire Award would have vested over four years, with 25% of the award vesting on the one-year anniversary of the vesting commencement date, and 1/16th of the award vesting on each quarterly anniversary thereafter, subject to continued service. Mr. Kalayjian ceased providing services before the Kalayjian New Hire Award vested and before the Kalayjian LTI award was granted.

***Termination and Change of Control Arrangements***

None of our NEOs is entitled to any potential payments or benefits in connection with a termination of their employment or a change in control of the Company, except that under our 2021 Plan if equity awards are not assumed or substituted in connection with a change in control of the Company, the vesting of such equity awards will fully accelerate, and if an NEO experiences a qualifying termination of employment within the period commencing three months prior to a change in control and ending 12 months after the change in control, the vesting of any equity awards that are assumed or substituted for will fully accelerate.

(1) Amounts reported represent the aggregate grant date fair value of RSU awards granted to our NEOs during 2025 under our 2021 Plan and the 2025 PSU Program, computed in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 718. See the discussion of Critical Accounting Policies in the Management's Discussion and Analysis our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025 for the assumptions used in calculating these values. The value for each award granted under the H1'25 PSU Program that is reported in the table assumed a 95.5% probability of achievement at target, except for the H1'25 PSU grant to Mr. Brumana, which assumed an 88.5% probability of achievement at target. The value for each award granted under the H2'25 PSU Program that is reported in the table assumed a 105.2% probability of achievement at target, and the value for each LTI award that is reported in the table assumed a 100.5% probability of achievement at target The aggregate grant date fair value of these awards, assuming the maximum level of performance, is $4,894,846, $3,842,449, $3,934,531, $3,855,620, $3,894,259 and $113,012 for Mr. Bevirt, Mr. Brumana, Mr. Papadopoulos, Ms. DeHoff, Ms. Simi and Mr. Kalayjian, respectively.

(2) Amount reported for 2025 includes a $4,000 401(k) plan matching contribution for each of our NEOs except Mr. Kalayjian, and geographic differential compensation of $250,000 and $100,000 for Mr. Papadopoulos and Ms. Simi, respectively.

**Quantification of Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control**

The table below reflects the intrinsic value of unvested equity awards that would have been accelerated had (i) a change in control occurred on December 31, 2025 and the outstanding equity awards were not assumed or substituted and/or (ii) a NEO's employment with the Company been terminated as of December 31, 2025 and such termination occurred within the period commencing 3 months prior to a change in control and ending 12 months after the change in control. The amounts below were determined by multiplying the number of RSUs for which vesting would be accelerated by our closing stock price as of December 31, 2025, which was $13.2 per share. None of our NEOs is entitled to cash severance upon a termination of employment with us.

As required by Item 402(u) of Regulation S-K, we are disclosing the following information about the relationship of the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees (other than our CEO), and the annual total compensation of our Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Bevirt (our "CEO"), for 2025

*CEO Pay Ratio for* 2025

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The median of the annual total compensation of all our employees, excluding our CEO, was $177,193;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The annual total compensation of our CEO, as reported in the 2025 Summary Compensation Table included in this Proxy Statement, was $3,706,622; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The ratio of the annual total compensation of our CEO to the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees was 21 to 1.

We believe this ratio is a reasonable estimate calculated in a manner consistent with SEC rules.

*Methodology*

The methodology and the material assumptions, adjustments, and estimates used to identify the median of the annual total compensation of all our employees for 2025 were based on the following:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Our median employee was identified from all full-time, part-time, seasonal, and temporary employees as of December 31, 2023, as we determined that there has not been a significant change in our employee population since December 31, 2023. Notably, while our overall employee population increased between December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2025, the increases were roughly proportional across all compensation levels. Our employee population consisted of individuals (other than our CEO) working at our parent company and consolidated subsidiaries both within and outside the United States. We did not include any contractors or other non-employee workers in our employee population.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• To identify our median employee from our employee population, we calculated the aggregate amount of each employee's (i) base salary or gross wages paid and (ii) the value of target annual bonus, which compensation measure was consistently applied. For simplicity and consistency across our organization, we used annual base salary or gross wages rate or the actual amount paid. Amounts under item (ii) above were annualized for any permanent employees who commenced work during 2023. We selected the foregoing compensation elements because they represented our principal broad-based compensation elements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• We did not rely on the data privacy or *de minimis* exceptions allowed by SEC rules to exclude any non-U.S. employees from our employee population, nor did we make any cost-of-living adjustment.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Compensation not paid in U.S. dollars was converted to U.S. dollars using the foreign exchange rates in effect as of December 31, 2023.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• All employees except for our CEO were ranked from lowest to highest with the median employee determined from this list.

Using this approach, we identified the individual at the median of our employee population who was the best representative of our employee population. The individual was a full-time employee based in the United States.

*Calculation*

Having identified our median employee using the aforementioned methodology, we then calculated the annual total of this employee for 2025 annual total compensation using the same methodology that we use for determining the annual total compensation of our named executive officers as reported in our 2025 Summary Compensation Table above.

We determined our CEO's annual total compensation for fiscal 2025 as reported in our 2025 Summary Compensation Table above.

The SEC rules allow companies to adopt a variety of methodologies, apply certain exclusions, and make reasonable estimates and assumptions that reflect their employee population and compensation practices, therefore the pay ratio reported by other companies may not be comparable to our pay ratio. As explained by the SEC when it adopted these rules, the rule was not designed to facilitate comparisons of pay ratios among different companies, even companies within the same industry, but rather to allow stockholders to better understand and assess each particular company's compensation practices and pay ratio disclosures.

("Peer Group"), as used in the Stock Performance Graph disclosed under Item 5 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025. The amount reflected shows the annual change in value of $100 invested in the Peer Group on August 10, 2021, the date of our Merger with RTP, and assumes reinvestment of dividends, if any. Each of the companies in our Peer Group went public via merger with a special purpose acquisition company ("SPAC"). For Peer Group companies that completed their SPAC merger after August 10, 2021, the cumulative return for the Peer Group was weighted based on the market capitalization of each company based on the date of its SPAC merger. Shares of Lilium N.V. were suspended from trading on November 6, 2024, and subsequently

**<u>[**TABLE OF CONTENTS**](#iccff298cd8ad454880993e9e72bbf591_13)</u>**

delisted from the Nasdaq Global Select Market. The Peer Group TSR assumes a share prices of $0.00 for shares of Lilium common stock after delisting.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Fair value or change in fair value, as applicable, of equity awards in the "Compensation Actually Paid" columns was determined by reference to (i) for solely service-vesting RSU awards, the closing price per share on the applicable year-end date(s) or, in the case of vesting dates, the closing price per share on the applicable vesting date(s); (ii) for performance-based RSU awards, the same valuation methodology as RSU awards above except that the year-end values are multiplied by the probability of achievement of the applicable performance objective as of the applicable date; and (iii) for stock options, a Black Scholes value as of the applicable year-end or vesting date(s), determined based on the same methodology as used to determine grant date fair value but using the closing stock price on the applicable revaluation date as the current market price and with an expected life set equal to the remaining life of the award in the case of underwater stock options and, in the case of in the money options, an expected life equal to the original ratio of expected life relative to the ten year contractual life multiplied times the remaining life as of the applicable revaluation date, and in all cases based on volatility and risk free rates determined as of the revaluation date based on the expected life period and based on an expected dividend rate of 0%. For additional information on the assumptions used to calculate the valuation of the awards, see the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025

**Relationships Between Executive Compensation Actually Paid and Select Financial Performance Measures** 

Since we were not a publicly traded company until August 2021, and are not yet generating operating revenues, we have not historically tied executive compensation to financial performance measures. Consequently, we have not included a Company-Selected Measure in our Pay Versus Performance Table. The primary way in which we tied executive pay to performance in 2025 was through our 2025 PSU Program and long-term incentive awards, which awarded RSUs to our NEOs that are achieved and vest in connection with the achievement of key operational goals that move us closer to our ultimate goal of launching our commercial air taxi service, which we believe will be the primary driver of operational revenues in the future.

The charts below are based on the information provided in the above table to illustrate the relationships between the Company's compensation actually paid to the PEO and the average compensation actually paid to the Company's non-PEO NEOs, with (i) the Company's cumulative TSR and peer group TSR, and (ii) the Company's net income (loss).

**Tabular List of Performance Measures**

As described above, the primary way in which we tied executive pay to performance in 2025 was through long-term incentive awards and our 2025 PSU Program. No financial performance measures were used by the Company in setting pay-for-performance compensation in 2025.

**Compensation Policies and Practices Related to Risk Management**

When establishing and reviewing the Company's executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee worked with management and Compensia to determine whether the compensation encourages unnecessary or excessive risk taking and concluded that it does not. See the section entitled "Board of Directors and Corporate Governance – Our Board of Directors' Role in Risk Oversight" for additional discussion of risk considerations.

**Actions to Recover Erroneously Awarded Compensation**

During the year ended December 31, 2025, we were not required to prepare any accounting restatement that required recovery of erroneously awarded compensation pursuant to our Policy for Recovery of Erroneously Awarded Compensation.

In May 2025, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Collaboration Agreement (the "Collaboration Agreement") with Toyota Motor Corporation ("Toyota"), which defines the terms of the parties' relationship in connection with certain planned collaboration projects. Under the Collaboration Agreement, Toyota has the right to designate one designee for nomination to our board of directors. Tetsuo Ogawa is currently serving as Toyota's designee on our board of directors.

In 2023, we entered into a long-term Supply Agreement with Toyota to supply key powertrain and actuation components for our aircraft (the "Toyota Supply Agreement"). We made payments to Toyota for these parts and materials totaling $1.1 million and $0.7 million during the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. In addition, we recognized revenue from Toyota related to demonstration flights and related support services amounting to $6.3 million during the year ended December 31, 2025. We also identified an embedded finance lease within the Toyota Supply Agreement with Toyota for subassembly components in the amount of $7.2 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively. The Company owed Toyota $0.1 million and $0.0 million as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

In October 2024, we entered into a stock purchase agreement with Toyota, which was amended and restated in May 2025 (as amended, the "Stock Purchase Agreement").

The Toyota Private Placement is structured in two equal tranches of $250.0 million each. The closing of each tranche is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement. The first tranche closing occurred in May 2025, and we issued 49,701,790 shares at the per share purchase price of $5.03, for an aggregate purchase price of $250,000,000. The second tranche (the "Additional Closing") is subject to conditions including, but not limited to: (i) the execution of a strategic alliance agreement relating to, among other things, manufacturing arrangements, by us and Toyota ("Strategic Alliance Agreement") and certain other customary closing conditions. The agreements to be entered into in connection with such conditions are subject to the receipt of regulatory approvals, the parties negotiating and entering into definitive agreements and the conditions included within the applicable definitive documents.

**Executive Ownership Interest in Vendors**

**Registration Rights Agreement**

In connection with the closing of the Merger, we and certain of our and RTP's stockholders entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, we agreed to file a shelf registration statement with respect to the registrable securities under the Registration Rights Agreement within thirty calendar days of the closing of the Merger. Certain stockholders party to the agreement may each request to sell all or any portion of their registrable securities in an underwritten offering up to two times in any 12-month period, so long as the total offering price is reasonably expected to exceed $100.0 million. We also agreed to provide "piggyback" registration rights, subject to certain requirements and customary conditions. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides that we will pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the stockholders against certain liabilities.

**Policies and Procedures for Related Person Transactions**

The Company's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for performing an audit of the Company's consolidated financial statements in accordance with standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board ("PCAOB") and issuing an opinion on the financial statements. The Audit Committee meets periodically with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to review the adequacy of the Company's internal controls, financial reporting practices and audit process.

Our Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with our management and Deloitte & Touche LLP, our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "Form 10-K"). Our Audit Committee has also discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.

Our Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from Deloitte & Touche LLP required by applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent accountant's communications with our Audit Committee concerning independence and has discussed with Deloitte & Touche LLP its independence from us.

Based on the review and discussions referred to above, our Audit Committee recommended to our Board that the audited consolidated financial statements be included in our Form 10-K for filing with the SEC.
