**EXPLANATORY NOTE**

LivePerson, Inc. ("LivePerson," the "Company," "we," "our" or "us") is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (this "Amendment") to amend the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2025 (the "2025 Fiscal Year") originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") by the Company on March 16, 2026 (the "Original Form 10-K") for the purpose of including the information required by Items 10 through 14 of Part III of Form 10-K. This information was omitted from the Original Form 10-K in reliance on General Instruction G(3) to Form 10-K, which permits such information to be incorporated by reference from a registrant's definitive proxy statement, if filed with the SEC not later than 120 days after the end of the fiscal year covered by a Form 10-K (or as such deadline may be extended pursuant to Rule 0-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") (the "Filing Deadline")). We will not have filed our definitive proxy statement by the Filing Deadline and are therefore amending and restating in their entirety Items 10, 11, 12, 13 and 14 of Part III of the Original Form 10-K.

In addition, as required by Rule 12b-15 under the Exchange Act, certifications by LivePerson's principal executive officer and principal financial officer are filed as exhibits to this Amendment under Item 15 of Part IV hereof. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment and this Amendment does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certifications have been omitted. We are not including certifications pursuant to Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 as no financial statements are being filed with this Amendment.

This Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Form 10-K or modify or update the disclosure contained in the Original Form 10-K in any way other than as required to reflect the amendments discussed above and reflected below. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with the Original Form 10-K and with the Company's filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Form 10-K. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings assigned to them in the Original Form 10-K.

**CAUTIONARY STATEMENT CONCERNING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS**

Statements in this Amendment about LivePerson that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about LivePerson and our industry. Our expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are expressed in good faith, and we believe there is a reasonable basis for them, but we cannot assure you that our expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections will be realized. Examples of forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding future business, future results of operations or financial condition (including statements regarding expectations for retention rates, customer attrition and revenue and other statements based on examinations of historical operating trends) and management strategies. Many of these statements are found in the "Business" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of the Original Form 10-K. When used in this Amendment, the words "anticipates," "believes," "estimates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "projects," and variations of such words or similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. However, not all forward-looking statements contain these words. Forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual future events or results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the forward-looking statements we make in this Amendment include those set forth in the section of the Original Form 10-K entitled Part 1, Item 1A., "Risk Factors." It is routine for our internal projections and expectations to change as the year or each quarter in the year progresses, and therefore it should be clearly understood that the internal projections and beliefs upon which we base our expectations may change prior to the end of each quarter or the year. Although these expectations may change, we are under no obligation to inform you if they do. Our policy is generally to provide our expectations only once per quarter, and not to update that information until the next quarter. We do not undertake any obligation to revise forward-looking statements to reflect future events or circumstances. All forward-looking statements are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

**Narrative Disclosure to 2025 Summary Compensation Table**

**Elements of 2025 Compensation** 

The philosophy underlying our executive compensation program is to employ and retain the best leaders in our industry to ensure we execute on our business goals, to reward both individual and company performance in order to promote growth and profitability, and to effectively create long-term stockholder value. In order to achieve our compensation objectives and to support our strategy and compensation philosophy, our compensation program for the 2025 Fiscal Year was designed to include the principal pay elements described further below. In accordance with our executive compensation philosophy, a significant portion of our NEOs' target pay is incentive-based, and therefore is considered "at-risk." This approach directly aligns each NEO's interests with those of our stockholders during periods of both share price growth and share price pressure. Based on the elements of compensation described in the narrative below, approximately 40% of Mr. Sabino's 2025 annual compensation opportunity (assuming target performance) stems from "fixed" pay elements (i.e., base salary) while 60% is connected to a form of "at-risk" compensation (i.e., target annual bonus and equity compensation).

***Base Salaries***

The Compensation Committee believes that our executive base salaries should reflect competitive levels of pay and factors unique to each executive such as experience and breadth of responsibilities, performance, individual skill set, time in the role and internal pay parity. Base salaries are initially set forth in our NEO's executive's employment agreement or offer letter, and reviewed periodically. Salary adjustments, if any, for the NEOs are approved by the Compensation Committee. The annual base salaries for Mr. Sabino and Mr. Collins were not adjusted in 2025. Mr. Mina's base salary of $425,000 was increased, as of October 15, 2025, to $500,000 in consideration of competitive market data and in response to Mr. Mina's performance since the commencement of his employment.

***Annual Incentive Compensation***

Our NEOs are provided the opportunity to earn a performance-based annual bonus. The annual bonus plan is designed to provide awards to such individuals as an incentive to contribute to and reward achievement against pre-established financial-based metrics. The Compensation Committee annually selects specific performance metrics to motivate performance that enhances and supports our strategic corporate objectives consistent with our annual operating plan.

Target annual bonus opportunities are expressed as a percentage of annual base salary and were established by the Compensation Committee in consideration of the NEO's level of responsibility and his or her ability to impact overall results. The Compensation Committee also periodically considers competitive market analysis prepared by Compensia in setting target bonus amounts.

For the 2025 Fiscal Year, the target annual bonus opportunities for our NEOs are set forth in the table below, expressed both as a percentage of base salary and as a dollar amount. The target annual bonus opportunity percentages were

------

unchanged from the prior year for Mr. Sabino and Mr. Collins, and set at 50% of base salary for Mr. Mina as part of his hiring.

---

| | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **NEO** | **Target Bonus<br>as a % of Salary** | **Target Bonus ($)** | |
| **John Sabino** | 100% | 550000 |  |
| **John D. Collins** | 65% | 341250 |  |
| **Christopher Mina** | 50% | 221875 | (1) |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Target bonus amount reflects salary adjustment in October 2025.

Annual bonus payouts for the 2025 calendar year were based on the level of achievement of the performance goals established by the Compensation Committee in consultation with our CEO and CFO, which level of performance was applied to the aggregate funding pool established by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of 2025 and then allocated to all eligible annual bonus participants. In designing the 2025 annual bonus program, the Compensation Committee sought to align the goals with investor interests, choosing B2B Recurring Revenue (weighted 30%), B2B New Annual Recurring Revenue (weighted 30%) and B2B Core Free Cash Flow (weighted 40%) as the relevant operational and financial performance metrics since success across those measures drives business operations and are key to positively impacting shareholder value. Corporate achievement at or between the approved threshold and target achievement levels of each goal resulted in funding the aggregate bonus pool based on a pre-determined scale set by the Compensation Committee. Following the end of the fiscal year, the Compensation Committee assessed performance against the established targets to have been achieved at 40%. The Compensation Committee, in consultation with management and in consideration of fiscal management goals and prior year performance, had approved, at the beginning of 2025, a reduced bonus pool target funding level, with Committee discretion to increase the available pool based on actual Company performance. The final payout percentage approved by the Committee for the 2025 fiscal year, based on Company performance together with the predetermined bonus pool funding level and the allocations across all annual bonus plan participants, resulted in participant payouts of approximately 32% of each participant's target bonus opportunity.

The table below summarizes the performance metrics, weightings, goals and achievement levels with respect to the 2025 annual bonus program:

---

| | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Goal** | **Weighting** | **Goals Threshold /<br>Target<br>(in millions of $)** | **Achievement<br>Level<br>(in millions of $)** | **Pool Funding Level** |
| 2025 B2B Recurring Revenue<sup>(1)</sup> | 30% | 235.66 / 244 | Below threshold |  |
| 2025 B2B New Annual Recurring Revenue<sup>(2)</sup> | 30% | (15.3) / 0 | Below threshold |  |
| 2025 B2B Free Cash Flow<sup>(3)</sup> | 40% | (20.4) / (15) | (15) | 40% |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)"2025 B2B Recurring Revenue" means aggregate 2025 Fiscal Year recurring software revenue and recurring professional services revenue.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)"2025 B2B New Annual Recurring Revenue" means annual new recurring software revenue and annual new recurring professional services revenue, net of churn, in the 2025 Fiscal Year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)"2025 B2B Free Cash Flow" means Adjusted EBITDA less capitalized software and other capital purchases in the 2025 Fiscal Year. "Adjusted EBITDA" means net loss, before provision for (benefit from) income taxes, interest income (expense), net, other income (expense), net, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation, restructuring costs, transaction-based acquisition costs, contingent earn-out adjustments and other non-cash charges.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to, but did not revise any NEO bonus amounts in respect of 2025 based on individual performance or performance measured against any strategic objectives, and, therefore, the annual bonus amounts for those bonus-eligible NEOs reflect the Company's performance against the metrics described above as

------

applied to the final determined aggregate bonus pool. The table below sets forth the earned bonus amounts for each NEO for 2025, which were paid in cash:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| **NEO** | **Earned Bonus ($)** | **Earned Bonus <br>(as a % of Target)** |
| **John Sabino** | 176000 | 32% |
| **John D. Collins** | 109200 | 32% |
| **Christopher Mina** | 71000 | 32% |

---

***Equity-Based Awards***

Equity-based awards are an important element for aligning the long-term financial interests of our NEOs and our stockholders. The Compensation Committee may grant equity-based awards under the Company's Amended and Restated 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the "2019 Stock Incentive Plan"), or the Company's Amended and Restated Inducement Plan (as defined below), in the case of new-hire awards) in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and other equity-based awards.

For equity awards granted in the 2025 Fiscal Year, the Compensation Committee considered multiple factors, including (i) retention of key personnel across the employee base to maintain institutional knowledge and execute on operational goals; (ii) share pool constraints in the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, (iii) the potential dilutive effects of equity awards upon vesting or exercise, (iv) the desire to provide market-competitive equity awards to employees based , in part on the status and retention value of awards previously granted to an employee, (v) the performance of the Company's stock price, (vi) competitive market analysis performed by Compensia, and (vii) the recommendations of the CEO (except with respect to his own equity compensation).

In consideration of the foregoing, (i) in May 2025 and September 2025, the Compensation Committee awarded grants of RSUs to Mr. Collins in respect of 19,711 and 46,955 shares, respectively, each of which vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant; and (ii) in December 2025, the Compensation Committee awarded RSUs to Mr. Sabino in respect of 60,000 shares, 35% of which vest on September 15, 2026 and 65% of which vest on September 15, 2027. In addition, Mr. Mina received a sign-on equity award as an inducement to his accepting an offer of employment as the Company's Chief Technology and Product Officer, effective as of January 1, 2025, consisting of 33,333 RSUs that vest on the first two anniversaries of the date of grant. The number of shares above subject to the grants in 2025, as described above, are in each instance being reported on a post-reverse split basis to reflect the 1 to 15 share reverse split of the Company's shares that occurred on October 15, 2025.

***The Role of Compensation Consultant, Competitive Pay Positioning and 2025 Benchmarking*** 

The Compensation Committee, composed of independent, non-employee members of the Board, oversees the executive compensation program for our NEOs and determines NEO pay levels. The Compensation Committee works closely with an independent compensation consultant, Compensia, to design, review and evaluate compensation programs and pay mix for our NEOs. The Committee also seeks the input of management to examine the effectiveness of the Company's executive compensation program throughout the year. The Compensation Committee reviews executive compensation and market and peer compensation data periodically, in conjunction with annual operational and financial planning for the current fiscal year and as needed for specific executive compensation issues that may arise at other times. The Compensation Committee makes final determinations regarding compensation for the CEO and our other executive officers in its sole discretion.

In determining the pay levels, the Compensation Committee considers all forms of compensation and benefits. As part of the compensation-setting process for the 2025 Fiscal Year, the Compensation Committee reviewed market data developed by Compensia covering peer and broader tech company practices sourced from SEC filings and broader market surveys to evaluate compensation levels and practices for the NEOs. After consideration of the data collected on

------

external competitive levels of compensation and internal relationships within the executive group, the Compensation Committee reviewed and approved the 2025 Fiscal Year target total compensation opportunities for executives based on the need to attract, motivate and retain an experienced and effective management team.

Pay levels for each of our NEOs are determined based on a number of factors, including the individual's roles and responsibilities within the Company, the individual's experience and expertise, the pay levels for peers within the Company, pay levels in the broader technology company marketplace for similar positions, performance of the individual and the Company as a whole, and the Company's overall cash and equity compensation budgets.

As noted above, notwithstanding the Company's overall pay positioning objectives, pay opportunities for specific individuals vary based on several factors such as scope of duties, tenure, institutional knowledge and/or difficulty in recruiting a new executive. Given that a significant portion of our compensation consists of variable, at-risk elements, actual total compensation in a given year will vary above or below the target compensation levels based primarily on the attainment of operational and financial goals and the creation of stockholder value. For purposes of setting compensation for the 2025 Fiscal Year, the Compensation Committee utilized a compensation peer group consisting of the companies listed below. The 2025 Fiscal Year peer group was updated from the peer group utilized for compensation determinations in the prior year. In developing an appropriate comparator group, the following criteria served as key drivers: public company status, U.S.-based headquarters, industry (inclusive of business scope and business mix), size (market capitalization and revenue), and number of employees. In addition, the Compensation Committee considered whether potential peer group members were identified as labor market competitors of ours as well as included in the peer group identified by Institutional Shareholder Services. The Compensation Committee works with Compensia periodically to determine if any adjustments to the peer group are appropriate.

***Health and Welfare Benefits***

We do not offer special perquisites to our NEOs. The Company's executive compensation program includes standard benefits that are also offered to all employees. These benefits include participation in the Company's 401(k) plan, including Company matching contributions, and Company-paid medical benefits and life insurance coverage. The Company annually reviews these benefits and makes adjustments as warranted based on competitive practices, the Company's performance and the individual's responsibilities and performance. The Company's 401(k) plan is a safe harbor plan and, in accordance with IRS rules, the Company matches 100% of the first 3% of eligible compensation and 50% of the next 2% of eligible compensation, subject to IRS limitations.

***Additional Narrative Disclosure***

In 2015, the Compensation Committee adopted the Deferred Compensation Plan. Certain key employees of the Company, including our NEOs and members of our Board, are eligible to participate in the Deferred Compensation Plan and generally may elect to defer the receipt of a portion of their base salary, bonus and/or directors' fees. Distribution may occur upon the following events, depending upon the participant's deferral election: a specified time, a separation from service, death, disability, change in control or financial hardship that arises in connection with an unforeseeable emergency. To date, none of our current NEOs have elected to make any deferrals under the Deferred Compensation Plan. The Company may make discretionary or matching contributions to the Deferred Compensation Plan, which may or may not be subject to vesting, but has not done so to date.

**Employment Agreements for our Named Executive Officers**

***John Sabino***, our CEO, became our CEO on January 10, 2024. Prior to the commencement of his employment, we entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Sabino setting forth the terms and conditions of his service as our CEO. Mr. Sabino's employment agreement provides that he will receive an annual base salary of $550,000, and he will be eligible to receive an annual bonus, with a target bonus opportunity of 100% of his base salary. In connection with his commencement of employment, Mr. Sabino received inducement awards, including: (i) two RSU awards, one with a target grant date value of $1,200,000 that will vest in two equal installments on the first two anniversaries of the date of grant, and the second with a target grant date value of $4,000,000 that will vest as to 25% of the number of RSUs on the first anniversary of the date of grant and then in 12 substantially equal quarterly installments, and (ii) the Sign-on Option, which is a stock option to acquire 66,666 (reflecting adjustment in light of the reverse stock split) shares of the Company's common stock that will vest and become exercisable upon satisfaction of certain performance-based and time-based vesting conditions. The Sign-on Option's performance-based vesting conditions provide that 50% of the Sign-on Option will be eligible to vest and become exercisable if, within the first three years following the date of grant, the average closing share price of the Company's common stock reaches $120.00 (reflecting adjustment in light of the reverse stock split) on a rolling 30-day trading basis, and the remaining 50% of the Sign-on Option will be eligible to vest and become exercisable if, within the first four years following the date of grant, the average closing share price of the Company's common stock reaches $195.00 (reflecting adjustment in light of the reverse stock split) on a rolling 30-day trading basis. In addition, to the extent that the performance-based vesting conditions are met, 50% of the Sign-on Option will vest and become exercisable on the second anniversary of the date of grant, and the remaining portion of the Sign-on Option will vest and become exercisable in 24 substantially equal monthly installments following the second anniversary of the date of grant. Mr. Sabino's employment agreement provides for certain payments upon termination. Please refer to the section of this Amendment titled "*Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control*" below for a description of those termination payments.

***John D. Collins***, our COO and CFO, and former Interim CEO, is party to an employment agreement with us, dated as of August 9, 2022 and amended effective May 1, 2024, which covers the terms and conditions of Mr. Collins' employment including his eligibility to participate in the Company's annual bonus plan as it exists from time to time under terms comparable to other employees of similar role and responsibility, and standard Company employee benefits, including vacation, in accordance with the terms of those programs in effect from time to time. Mr. Collins' employment agreement provides for certain payments upon termination. Please refer to the section of this Amendment titled "*Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control*" below for a description of those termination payments.

***Christopher Mina***, our Chief Technology and Product Officer, is party to an employment agreement with us, dated as of November 27, 2024, and amended as of October 23, 2025, which covers the terms and conditions of Mr. Mina's employment including his eligibility to participate in the Company's annual bonus plan as it exists from time to time under terms comparable to other employees of similar role and responsibility, and standard Company employee benefits, including vacation, in accordance with the terms of those programs in effect from time to time. In connection with his hiring, Mr. Mina was entitled to payment or reimbursement by the Company of certain relocation and related tax planning expenses related to Mr. Mina's relocation from abroad, subject to applicable taxes. The relocation-related payments are subject to repayment by Mr. Mina if he were to voluntarily terminate his employment within two years of his relocation. In addition, as part of the amendment of Mr. Mina's employment agreement, Mr. Mina became eligible for a $250,000 transaction-based retention bonus that becomes vested and payable, subject to applicable tax, upon the closing of a change of control of the Company occurring within two years of the date of the amendment. Mr. Mina's employment agreement, as amended, also provides for certain payments upon termination. Please refer to the section of this Amendment titled "Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control" below for a description of those termination payments.

**Outstanding Equity Awards at End of 2025 Fiscal Year**

The following table sets forth information concerning outstanding equity awards held by each of the NEOs as of the end of the 2025 Fiscal Year. In the table below, all share numbers and exercise prices, as applicable, in respect of awards that were outstanding as of October 13, 2025 reflect adjustments made in light of the 1 to 15 reverse-stock split of the Company's shares that occurred on that date. Any awards granted after that date are included based on the actual number of shares granted (on a post-reverse split basis).

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)In connection with his hiring, Mr. Sabino was granted a stock option to acquire 1,000,000 shares (66,666 shares on a post-reverse split basis) of the Company's common stock that will vest upon satisfaction of certain performance-based and time-based vesting conditions as further described above in the section of this Amendment titled "*Narrative Disclosure to Summary Compensation Table – Employment Agreements for our Named Executive Officers.*"

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)For RSU awards granted prior to 2024, the total original number of shares subject to each RSU award listed in this column vests over four years, with 25% of the units vesting on the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date and the balance vesting in equal annual installments on each anniversary thereof. For RSU awards granted in 2024 and 2025 to Mr. Collins and Ms. Greenberg, the total original number of shares subject to each RSU listed in this column become vested in full upon the first anniversary of the vesting commencement date. For Mr. Sabino, 774,194 shares (51,612 shares on a post-reverse split basis) of the original number of shares subject to his RSU awards vest in two equal installments on the first two anniversaries of the grant date (i.e., March 15, 2025 and March 15, 2026), and 2,580,645 (172,043 on a post-reverse split basis) of the original number of shares subject to his RSU award vest as to 25% of the award on the first anniversary of the grant date and then in 12 substantially equal quarterly installments thereafter.Mr. Sabino's 2025 RSU award vests as to 35% of the number of shares originally granted on September 15, 2026, and 65% of the number of shares originally granted on September 15, 2027. For all outstanding RSU awards, vesting is subject to the executive's continued employment through the vesting date, except as may be provided in their individual employment agreements.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)The market value of RSUs is based on the closing market price of the Company's common stock on December 31, 2025 of $3.87 per share.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)Amounts reported in this column represent performance-vesting restricted stock units ("PRSUs") granted in 2022 which were earned and vested based on the achievement of certain company performance goals, including the Company's revenue and adjusted EBITDA achievement and relative total shareholder return ("TSR") performance, over a three-year performance period that ended in July 2025. The final number of PRSUs as shown were deemed earned following the end of the performance period on July 27, 2025.

**Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control**

The following narrative disclosure describes the additional compensation that would have become payable to certain of our NEOs in connection with an involuntary termination of their employment or a change in control of the Company pursuant to the agreements entered into with our NEOs and the terms of their outstanding equity awards.

**John Sabino**

If Mr. Sabino is terminated by us without Cause or if he resigns for Good Reason (as such terms are defined in his employment agreement), then, subject to his execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, he will be entitled to the following severance: (i) continued payment of his base salary for 18 months, (ii) an amount equal to Mr. Sabino's target annual bonus opportunity for the year of termination, which will be prorated based on the number of days worked during the year of termination, unless the relevant termination event occurs within the three months prior to or during the 12 months following a Change in Control (in which case, the amount will not be prorated), (iii) if the prior year's annual bonus has been earned but not yet paid at the time of termination, payout of the annual bonus amount that would have been paid in the normal course had the termination of employment not occurred, (iv) reimbursement for the differential cost of continuation of his then-current health insurance benefits for Mr. Sabino and his covered dependents under COBRA (provided Mr. Sabino timely elects COBRA) for a period of 18 months, and (v) if the relevant termination event occurs during the three months prior to or during the 12 months following a Change in Control, (A) all time-based equity awards outstanding as of the date of termination (including the Sign-on Awards, but excluding the Sign-on Option) will fully vest, and (B) the treatment of any performance-based equity awards will be determined in accordance with the terms of the applicable award's grant agreement. In the case of the Sign-on Option, (x) any remaining time-based vesting conditions will be accelerated and deemed immediately satisfied for the portion of the award, if any, for which the performance-based vesting conditions were met prior to the Change in Control, (y) 50% of the performance-based vesting conditions will be deemed satisfied if the Change in Control per share transaction price is at least $120.00 per share, and any remaining time-based vesting conditions will accelerate for that portion of the Sign-on Option, and (z) 100% of the performance-based vesting conditions will be deemed satisfied if the Change in Control per share transaction price is at least $195.00 per share, and any remaining time-based vesting conditions will accelerate for that portion of the Sign-on Option. If neither of the performance-based vesting hurdles are met in the Change in Control transaction, the unvested portion of the Sign-on Option will be forfeited and cancelled for no consideration at the time of the Change in Control.

In the event of Mr. Sabino's termination as a result of his death or, subject to execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, his Disability (as such term is defined in his employment agreement), the Company will pay to Mr. Sabino or his heirs, as applicable, an amount equal to the prior year's annual bonus that had been earned but not yet paid at the time of Mr. Sabino's death or Disability. In addition, Mr. Sabino or his heirs, as applicable, will be entitled to Company-paid health insurance continuation coverage, less the amount payable by an active employee for such coverage, for a period of 18 months. To the extent that any stock options held by Mr. Sabino are vested at the time of his death or Disability, those vested stock options will remain exercisable until the earlier of 12 months and the original expiration date of the stock option.

**John D. Collins**

If Mr. Collins is terminated by us without Cause (as defined in his employment agreement), subject to his execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, he will be entitled to the following severance: (i) continued payment of his base salary for six months, (ii) reimbursement for the differential cost of continuation of his then-current health

------

insurance benefits under COBRA (provided Mr. Collins timely elects COBRA) for a period of six months, and (iii) any earned, but unpaid, annual bonus for a prior completed fiscal year.

In addition, if Mr. Collins' employment is terminated by us without Cause or by Mr. Collins for Good Reason (as defined in his employment agreement), in either case, within the three-month period immediately prior to or the 12-month period immediately following a Change of Control (as defined in his employment agreement), then, subject to his execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, he will be entitled to the following severance: (i) continued payment of his base salary for 12 months, (ii) reimbursement for the differential cost of continuation of his then-current health insurance benefits under COBRA (provided Mr. Collins timely elects COBRA) for a period of 12 months, (iii) a bonus payment equal to his target bonus for the prior completed fiscal year (if not yet paid), (iv) a bonus payment equal to his target bonus prorated for the number of months Mr. Collins was employed during the then-current fiscal year prior to termination, (v) immediate vesting, as of the termination date, of any outstanding unvested options and any other unvested equity awards held by Mr. Collins at the time of termination, and (vi) any vested options will remain exercisable until the earlier of 90 days following his termination and the original expiration date of the applicable option.

**Christopher Mina**

If Mr. Mina is terminated by us without Cause (as defined in his employment agreement), subject to his execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, he will be entitled to the following severance: (i) continued payment of his base salary for six months, (ii) reimbursement for the differential cost of continuation of his then-current health insurance benefits under COBRA (provided Mr. Mina timely elects COBRA) for a period of six months, and (iii) any earned, but unpaid, annual bonus for a prior completed fiscal year.

In addition, if Mr. Mina's employment is terminated by us without Cause or by Mr. Mina for Good Reason (as defined in his employment agreement), in either case, within the three-month period immediately prior to or the 12-month period immediately following a Change of Control (as defined in his employment agreement), then, subject to his execution of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, he will be entitled to the following severance: (i) continued payment of his base salary for 6 months, (ii) reimbursement for the differential cost of continuation of his then-current health insurance benefits under COBRA (provided Mr. Mina timely elects COBRA) for a period of 6 months, (iii) a bonus payment equal to his target bonus for the prior completed fiscal year (if not yet paid), (iv) immediate vesting, as of the termination date, of any outstanding unvested options and any other unvested equity awards held by Mr. Mina at the time of termination, and (v) any vested options will remain exercisable until the earlier of 90 days following his termination and the original expiration date of the applicable option.

**Other Compensation Practices, Policies and Guidelines**

**Stock Ownership**

We strongly encourage our executives and non-employee directors to hold an equity interest in our Company, and, accordingly, maintain formal executive stock ownership guidelines. Under these guidelines, each of our executive officers and non-employee directors is required to build and maintain their share ownership to the levels listed below within a period of five years from the adoption of the policy (April 2022), or the start of their service in a covered role, if later:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• CEO: 5x current base salary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Other NEOs: 2x current base salary.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Non-employee directors: 5x annual cash retainer.

------

Shares owned outright (including shares from vested RSUs and PRSUs) count toward the ownership goals, while shares associated with unvested RSUs, PRSUs and unexercised stock options do not count toward compliance with the guidelines. Compliance with the guidelines will be measured prior to the first required measurement date in 2027.

We believe that our stock ownership policy will contribute to the retention of shares from vested RSUs and PRSUs by our executive officers and non-employee directors. In the event that the ownership goals are not achieved within the applicable five-year compliance period, the non-employee directors and executive officers would be required to hold all net shares issued upon exercise of stock options or settlement of RSUs and PRSUs (in each case, after payment of any applicable withholding tax obligations) until the guidelines are met.

**Compensation Recovery Policy**

We maintain an amended and restated omnibus clawback policy (the "Clawback Policy"), effective as of October 2, 2023, which revised the prior clawback policy in order to comply with Exchange Act Rule 10D-1 and the applicable Nasdaq listing standards. Pursuant to the Clawback Policy, in the event of an "accounting restatement" (as defined in the Clawback Policy), our "covered executives" (as defined in the Clawback Policy), including our NEOs, must reimburse us for any "erroneously awarded compensation" (as defined in the Clawback Policy). Erroneously awarded compensation includes the amount of incentive compensation received by a covered executive during the three fiscal years preceding the date we are required to prepare an accounting restatement based on our achievement of "financial reporting measures" (as defined in the Clawback Policy) in excess of the amount that the covered executive would have received based on the restated financial reporting measures. The Compensation Committee has the authority to interpret and make all determinations under the Clawback Policy.

**Prohibition Against Hedging and Certain Equity Transactions**

Our Insider Trading and Disclosure Policy (the "Insider Trading Policy") prohibits those officers subject to Section 16 reporting from engaging in hedging or derivative transactions, such as "cashless" collars, forward contracts, equity swaps or other similar or related transactions. In addition, all officers and employees of the Company and all the members of our Board are prohibited from engaging in "short" sales or other transactions involving LivePerson stock which could reasonably cause our officers to have interests adverse to our stockholders. "Short" sales, which are sales of shares of common stock by a person who does not own the shares at the time of the sale, evidence an expectation that the value of the shares will decline. We prohibit our executive officers from entering into "short" sales because such transactions signal to the market that the executive officer has no confidence in us or our short-term prospects and may reduce the officer's incentive to improve our performance. In addition, Section 16(c) of the Exchange Act expressly prohibits executive officers and directors from engaging in short sales. Our executive officers are also prohibited from trading in LivePerson-based put and call option contracts, transacting in straddles and similar transactions without Board approval. These transactions would allow someone to continue to own the covered securities, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. If an executive officer were to enter into such a transaction, the executive officer would no longer have the same objectives as our other stockholders. Under the Insider Trading Policy, all officers and employees of the Company, and all of the members of the Company's Board are also prohibited from margining or pledging their common stock to secure a loan, or from purchasing Company stock "on margin" (that is, borrow funds to purchase stock, including in connection with exercising any Company stock options).

**Policies and Practices Related to the Timing of Grants of Certain Equity Awards**

The Compensation Committee may grant equity-based awards under the Company's 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (or the Company's Amended and Restated Inducement Plan (as defined below), in the case of new-hire awards) in the form of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance shares and other equity-

------

based awards. The Compensation Committee approves equity awards at one of its regularly scheduled meetings, or at such other times as appropriate or necessary, and generally, for annual equity awards, after the Compensation Committee has completed its annual compensation review for the CEO and other NEOs. The Compensation Committee has also delegated the authority to grant equity awards to certain non-executive officer employees to a sub-committee, which sub-committee generally meets to approve the applicable equity awards on or about the 15th day of each month. We do not schedule the grant of stock options or other equity awards in anticipation of the disclosure of material nonpublic information, and we do not schedule the disclosure of material nonpublic information based on the timing of grants of stock options or other equity awards.

**Director Compensation**

The following table sets forth information concerning the compensation of our non-employee directors in the 2025 Fiscal Year. Following the table is a discussion of material factors related to the information disclosed in the table.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)In 2025, Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Miller, Ms. Pegueros, Ms. Tjon, and Mr. Wesemann received annual equity award in the form of RSUs, Mr. Zingale received a new director initial equity award in the form of a stock option to purchase shares of the Company's common stock ("Options"), and Mr. Lane and Mr. Vardeman received new director initial equity awards in the form of RSUs.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The amounts reported in the "Stock Awards" column represent the grant date fair value of RSU awards granted to our directors, other than Mr. Zingale, in 2025 and the amount reported in the "Option Awards" column represents the grant date fair value of the Options granted to Mr. Zingale in 2025, each computed in accordance with ASC Topic 718 and in accordance with SEC rules. Details and assumptions used in calculating the grant date fair value of the RSU awards and stock option award, as applicable, may be found in Note 11 of the Company's consolidated financial statements contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 2025 Fiscal Year, as filed with the SEC. The amounts included in this column reflect the Company's accounting expense and do not correspond to the actual value that will be realized by the non-employee directors, and there is no assurance that these grant date fair values will ever be realized by the directors. Pursuant to SEC rules, the amounts shown exclude the impact of estimated forfeitures related to service-based vesting conditions.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)As of December 31, 2025, the number of shares underlying outstanding and unvested RSUs include: (i) 13,333 for each of Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Miller, Ms. Pegueros, and Ms. Tjon, which vest on August 25, 2026 and represent the directors' annual equity grant; and (ii) 23,350 for each of Mr. Lane and Mr. Vardeman, which vest on December 10, 2026 and represent initial new director awards. As of December 31, 2025, the number of shares underlying unexercised Options for non-employee directors were: Mr. Wesemann, 9,067, and Mr. Zingale, 26,666. The Options held by Mr. Zingale, which represents his initial new director award, will vest in three substantially equal installments on July 11, 2026, 2027 and 2028 and have an exercise price of $16.20. All of the share numbers, and the exercise price, as applicable, noted in this footnote attributable to RSU and Option awards held prior to October 13, 2025 reflect adjustments to the number of shares underlying the award and to the exercise price in the case of the Option to reflect the 1 to 15 reverse stock split that occurred on that date.

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(4)Mr. Hansen resigned from the Board effective January 31, 2025, and Ms. Layfield resigned from the Board effective August 4, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(5)Mr. Lane, Mr. Vardeman and Mr. Zingale were appointed to the Board on November 7, 2025, October 14, 2025, and July 11, 2025, respectively.

The non-employee directors are compensated in accordance with a fee schedule that is approved by the Compensation Committee, that generally operates on an annual cycle from July 1 to June 30 each year. Directors who are also our employees receive no additional compensation for their services as directors. The Compensation Committee reviews and recommends to the Board appropriate director compensation programs for service as non-employee directors including role-specific compensation for committee chair and committee member's service. In order to determine the Board compensation framework, the Compensation Committee periodically reviews comparative market composite data of practices of the Company's peers provided by Compensia.

Consistent with the Company's compensation philosophy, non-employee director compensation is positioned competitively against companies of similar industry size and value, and is reviewed by the Compensation Committee periodically with changes, if any, generally being implemented for the next Board compensation cycle.

For his or her services in Fiscal Year 2025, each non-employee director received compensation in accordance with the following:

---

| | | |
|:---|:---|:---|
| Annual Cash Retainer | $35000 |  |
| Annual Cash Retainer for Chair of the Board | $50000 |  |
| Annual Equity Grant | $200000 | <sup>(1)</sup> |

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1) Newly appointed non-employee directors to the Board receive an initial equity grant equal to the annual equity retainer of $200,000, the value of which may, in the Compensation Committee's discretion, be prorated based on the timing of the new director's commencement of service.

Members of our Committees, other than the Chairpersons, receive the following additional compensation (which is paid quarterly in arrears and prorated for any partial quarters of service):

---

| | |
|:---|:---|
| Audit Committee | $10000 |
| Compensation Committee | $7500 |
| Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee | $5000 |

The Chairpersons of our Committees receive the following additional compensation (which is paid quarterly in arrears and prorated for any partial quarters of service):

---

For the 2025 Fiscal Year, annual equity awards were granted in the form of RSUs. The RSUs will "cliff" vest on the one-year anniversary of the date of grant. The number of shares subject to the non-employee directors' annual award was set at the time of our 2025 annual meeting of Stockholders held on June 25, 2025, at which time the non-employee directors agreed to receive a fixed number of shares (i.e., 13,333 shares on a post-reverse split basis), which at the time of approval represented a value less than the value of the Company's standard non-employee director annual renewal grant. In connection with his joining the Board shortly after the annual meeting and in light of his specific experience and expertise and cooperative selection pursuant to our Company's contractual obligation to Vector Capital Management, L.P., at the same time as the annual grants for continuing directors were approved, the Board approved an initial award for Mr. Zingale which, at his request, would be granted in the form of a stock option. The stock option, in respect of

------

26,666 shares of the Company's common stock, vests over three years in equal annual installments. At the time of the Compensation Committee's approval, such stock option had an approximate Black-Scholes valuation generally aligned with the value of our non-employee director equity grants. These RSU and Option awards were subsequently granted in August 2025 promptly following the date on which the new share reserve, which received the approval of our stockholders at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, was registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-8. The values reported in the Director Compensation Table above reflect the grant date fair value of the awards as of the August 25, 2025 grant date in accordance with applicable accounting rules, and the exercise price of the Option is equal to the closing price of a share of our common stock on August 25, 2025. In connection with their appointments to the Board, Mr. Lane and Mr. Vardeman each received an initial grant in the form of RSUs that vest on the first anniversary of the date of grant, the grant value of which was prorated to reflect the partial year of service. Each of the awards were granted under the terms of the Company's Amended and Restated Stock Incentive Plan (the "2019 Plan") and within the sub-limits for awards to non-employee directors under the 2019 Plan, which for purposes of clarity, are per-director sub-limits.

**Equity Compensation Plan Information**

The following table summarizes the number of securities underlying outstanding options and RSUs granted to employees and directors, as well as the number of securities remaining available for future issuance, under LivePerson's equity compensation awards as of December 31, 2025.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(1)Consists of options to purchase shares of our common stock, as well as RSU awards, each representing the right to acquire shares of our common stock. In respect of the plans approved by security holders, including the 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, 2009 Stock Incentive Plan and 2019 Stock Incentive Plan, the number of shares reported represents 106,547 shares subject to stock options and 724,326 RSUs. For purposes of this table, the number of RSUs includes a number in respect of PRSUs granted under the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan that could have been earned during a three-year performance period which number reported is based on target performance. In respect of the plan not approved by security holders, the number of shares reported represents 4,877 shares subject to stock options, and 58,204 RSUs granted under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan (described below) and 66,666 shares subject to stock options granted on a stand-alone basis to Mr. Sabino at the time of his hiring.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(2)The weighted average exercise price is calculated based solely on the outstanding stock options. It does not take into account the shares issuable upon vesting of outstanding RSU awards or performance stock units, which have no exercise price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(3)Consists of 62,029 shares remaining available for issuance under the 2019 Stock Incentive Plan and 92,972 shares remaining available for issuance under the 2019 Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

**Amended and Restated LivePerson, Inc. 2018 Inducement Plan** 

On January 19, 2018, the Board adopted the LivePerson, Inc. 2018 Inducement Plan (which has been subsequently amended and restated) (as amended and restated, the "Amended and Restated Inducement Plan"). The Amended and Restated Inducement Plan provides for the grants of awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, RSUs and other stock and cash-based awards to persons who have not previously been an employee or director of the Company, or to an individual following a bona fide period of non-employment with the Company, as an inducement for the individual's entering into employment with the Company. The purpose of the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan is to help the Company provide an inducement to attract and retain the employment services of new employees, to motivate those new employees whose potential contributions are important to the success of the Company to accept an offer of employment by providing them with equity ownership opportunities, and to advance the interests of the Company's stockholders by providing incentives to those eligible individuals who are expected to make important contributions to the Company.

In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, recapitalization, combination of shares, reclassification of shares, spin-off or other similar change in capitalization or event, or any dividend or distribution to holders of our common stock other than an ordinary cash dividend, the Board will make equitable adjustments to the maximum number and type of shares or other securities that may be issued under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan, the maximum number and type of shares that may be granted to any participant in any calendar year, the number and type of shares subject to outstanding awards, the exercise price or grant price of outstanding awards and other necessary adjustments in connection with the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan.

The Amended and Restated Inducement Plan is administered by our Board. Pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan, subject to applicable law, our Board may delegate certain authority under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan to one or more of its committees or subcommittees or one or more of our officers, provided that the authority to grant equity awards to future employees whom will be considered to be "executive officers" and/or "officers" under Rules 3b-7 and 16a-1, respectively, of the Exchange Act may not be delegated to our officers. Subject to the provisions of the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan, the Board has the power to select the recipients of awards, to determine the number of shares subject to any award, to establish and verify the extent of satisfaction of any performance goals or other conditions applicable to awards, to determine whether, and the extent to which, adjustments are required under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan, and to determine the terms and conditions of awards. Our Board may also modify awards granted to participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside the United States or establish sub-plans or procedures under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan to recognize differences in laws, rules, regulations or customs of such foreign jurisdictions with respect to tax, securities, currency, employee benefit or other matters.

**Stock Options**

Our Board may grant nonqualified stock options under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. The number of shares covered by each stock option granted to a participant (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit) and all other terms and conditions will be determined by our Board. The stock option exercise price is established by our Board and must be at least 100% of the fair market value of a share on the date of grant. Consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules, and to the extent authorized by the Board, payment of the exercise price of stock options may be made in one or more of the following: (i) cash or check, (ii) broker assisted cashless exercise, (iii) shares of our common stock, (iv) net exercise, (v) delivery to us of a promissory note, (vi) any other lawful means, or (vii) any combination of these permitted forms of payment. The Amended and Restated Inducement Plan prohibits decreasing the exercise price of an option or canceling an option and replacing it with an award with a lower exercise price.

------

After a termination of a participant's services with the Company, a participant will be able to exercise the vested portion of his or her option for the period of time stated in the applicable stock option agreement. Unless otherwise provided by the Board, unvested stock options will generally expire upon termination of the participant's employment and vested stock options will generally expire immediately following a termination for cause. In no event, however, may a stock option be exercised beyond its original expiration date. The term of a stock option will not exceed 10 years from the date of grant.

**Stock Appreciation Rights**

Our Board may grant stock appreciation rights under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. Stock appreciation rights typically provide for the right to receive the appreciation in the fair market value of our common stock between the grant date and the exercise date. Our Board may grant stock appreciation rights either alone or in tandem with a stock option granted under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. The number of shares of our common stock covered by each stock appreciation right (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit) and all other terms and conditions will be determined by our Board. Stock appreciation rights are generally subject to the same terms and limitations applicable to options or, when granted in tandem with an option, to the same terms as the option. Stock appreciation rights may be paid in cash or shares or any combination of both, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion. Unless otherwise approved by our stockholders, the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan prohibits decreasing the exercise price of a stock appreciation right or canceling a stock appreciation right and replacing it with an award with a lower exercise price.

**Restricted Stock**

Our Board may award shares of restricted stock under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. Our Board will determine the terms of any restricted stock award, including the number of shares subject to such award (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit), and conditions for vesting and repurchase. Participants holding restricted stock will be entitled to all ordinary cash dividends paid with respect to such shares, which dividends shall be accrued and become payable when and if the restricted stock vests. When the restricted stock award conditions are satisfied, the shares will no longer be subject to forfeiture as the participant is vested in the shares and has complete ownership of the shares.

**Restricted Stock Units**

Our Board may also grant an award of RSUs under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. An RSU is a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equivalent to the fair market value of one share of our common stock. Participants are not required to pay us any consideration at the time of grant of an RSU award. Our Board will determine the terms of any RSU award, including the number of shares covered by such award (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit), and the conditions for vesting and repurchase. RSU awards may include a dividend equivalent right feature, but any dividends payable to stockholders will accrue with respect to the RSU and become payable only when and if the underlying RSU vests. When the participant satisfies the conditions of an RSU award, we will pay the participant cash or shares of our common stock to settle the vested RSUs. Our Board may permit a participant to elect to defer the settlement of his or her vested RSU award until a later date; provided that such deferral election must be made pursuant to an exemption from, or in compliance with, Section 409A of the Code.

**Other Stock-Based and Cash-Based Awards**

Under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan, our Board may also grant awards of shares of our common stock or other awards denominated in cash. Our Board will determine the terms of any such stock-based or cash-based award,

------

including the number of shares or amount of cash, as applicable, covered by such award (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit), and the conditions for vesting.

**Performance Awards**

Our Board may grant performance awards under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. Performance awards provide participants with the opportunity to earn a payout subject to the award only if certain performance goals or other vesting criteria are achieved. Our Board will establish the performance goals or other vesting in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number and/or the value of performance shares to be paid out to participants. Our Board has discretion to determine other terms of the performance award, including the number of shares or value subject to a performance award (subject to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan's stated limit), the period as to which performance is to be measured, any applicable forfeiture provisions and any other terms and conditions consistent with the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. After the completion of the performance period applicable to the award, our Board will measure performance against the applicable goals and other vesting criteria and determine whether any payment will be made under the award. If the participant satisfies the conditions of the performance share award, we will pay the participant cash or shares or any combination of both to settle the award.

**Performance Goals**

Our Board may establish performance criteria and level of achievement versus such criteria that will determine the number of shares to be granted, retained, vested, issued or issuable under or in settlement of or the amount payable pursuant to an award, which criteria may be based on certain performance goals (as described below). The performance criteria for each such performance award will be based on one or more of the following measurable performance goals: (a) net income, (b) earnings before or after discontinued operations, interest, taxes, depreciation and/or amortization, (c) operating profit before or after discontinued operations and/or taxes, (d) sales, (e) sales growth, (f) earnings growth, (g) cash flow or cash position, (h) gross margins, (i) stock price, (j) market share, (k) return on sales, assets, equity or investment, (l) improvement of financial ratings, (m) achievement of balance sheet or income statement objectives, (n) total stockholder return, (o) introduction of new products, (p) expansion into new markets or (q) achievement of any other strategic, operational or individual performance goals as the Board may determine.

These performance goals may reflect absolute entity or business unit performance or a relative comparison to the performance of a peer group of entities or other external measure of the selected performance criteria and may be absolute in their terms or measured against or in relationship to other companies comparably, similarly or otherwise situated. Our Board may specify that such performance measures shall be adjusted to exclude any one or more of (i) extraordinary items, (ii) gains or losses on the dispositions of discontinued operations, (iii) the cumulative effects of changes in accounting principles, (iv) the write-down of any asset, and (v) charges for restructuring and rationalization programs. Such performance goals may: (i) vary by participant and may be different for different awards and (ii) be particular to a participant or the department, branch, line of business, subsidiary or other unit in which the participant works and may cover such period as may be specified by the Board.

**Transferability of Awards**

Awards granted under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan generally may not be transferred other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order. During the life of the participant, awards are exercisable only by the participant. Our Board may in its sole discretion permit and subject to certain conditions provide for the gratuitous transfer of an award to or for the benefit of any immediate family member, family trust or other entity established for the benefit of the participant and/or an immediate family member thereof to the extent permitted under Form S-8 under the Securities Act.

------

**Reorganization Event**

In the event of a reorganization of the Company, each outstanding award will be treated as our Board determines, including, without limitation, that each award may be assumed or an equivalent option or right substituted by the successor corporation, or in the case of stock options, may be terminated after giving holders notice of such pending termination and a change to exercise the option prior to the reorganization event. In addition, the vesting of awards that are unvested at the time of a reorganization event does not automatically accelerate, but our Board may cause any vesting to accelerate or restrictions lapse in connection with the change in control event. In the case that stockholders are receiving a cash payment for each share in a reorganization event, our Board may also provide that all awards will be canceled in connection with the reorganization event in exchange for the holder of such award receiving a cash payment for each share underlying the award in the same amount as the stockholders receive, or, in the case of options, the excess, if any, between the amount a stockholder is receiving and the exercise price of the stock option. Our Board will generally not be required to treat all awards, all awards held by a participant, or all awards of the same type, similarly in the transaction. Upon the occurrence of a liquidation or dissolution of the Company, except to the extent specifically provided otherwise in the restricted stock or RSU award agreement or any other agreement between a participant and us, all restrictions and conditions on all restricted stock and RSU awards then outstanding will automatically be deemed terminated or satisfied.

**Amendment and Termination**

Our Board may amend, suspend or terminate the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan at any time and for any reason, provided that any amendment may not materially and adversely affect the rights of the existing participants under the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. No award will be made that is conditioned upon stockholder approval of any amendment to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan. The Amended and Restated Inducement Plan will terminate on January 19, 2028, unless re-adopted or extended by the stockholders prior to or on such date or unless terminated earlier by the Board.

**Forfeiture Events; Clawback**

Awards granted pursuant to the Amended and Restated Inducement Plan shall be subject to the terms of any clawback policy adopted by us as in effect from time to time, as well as any recoupment/forfeiture provisions required by law and applicable to us or our subsidiaries or specified in any award agreement. Please refer to the section of this Amendment titled "*Compensation Recovery Policy*" above for additional information on our clawback policy.

**Item 13. Certain Relationships and Related Transactions, and Director Independence**

**Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions**

Any transaction or series of transactions, of which the aggregate amount involved exceeds or may be reasonably expected to exceed $120,000, in which we participate and a related person has a material interest would require the prior approval by our Board. In such cases, the Board would review all of the relevant facts and circumstances and would take into account, among other factors, whether the transaction is on terms no less favorable than terms generally available to an unaffiliated third party under the same or similar circumstances and the extent of the related person's interest in the transaction. If a transaction relates to a director, that director would not participate in the Board's deliberations.

Related persons would include a member of our Board and our executive officers and their immediate family members. It would also include persons controlling over 5% of our outstanding common stock. Under our written policy on conflicts of interest, all of our directors, executive officers and employees have a duty to report to the appropriate level of management potential conflicts of interests, including transactions with related persons.

Pursuant to our Audit Committee Charter, our Audit Committee is responsible for reviewing potential conflict of interest situations and approving, on an ongoing basis, all related party transactions required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K. In particular, our Audit Committee Charter requires that our Audit Committee approve all transactions between the Company and one or more directors, executive officers, major stockholders or firms that employ directors, as well as any other material related party transactions that are identified in a periodic review of our transactions. In considering a related party transaction, the Audit Committee will consider such factors as it deems appropriate, including, without limitation, the commercial reasonableness of the terms, if the terms are judged to be the same as a transaction made on an arm's-length basis, the benefit or perceived benefit (or lack thereof) to the Company, the impact on a director's independence in the event the related person is a director, an immediate family member of a director or an entity in which a director has a position or relationship, opportunity costs and availability of alternate transactions, the materiality and character of the related person's direct or indirect interest, and any actual or apparent conflict of interest of the related person.

Since the beginning of the 2025 Fiscal Year, the Company has not been a participant in any transaction with a related person other than the agreements and transactions described below.

**Indemnification Agreements with Directors and Executive Officers**

The Charter provides that we will indemnify each of our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law. In addition, we have entered into indemnification agreements with our directors and executive officers, the form of which was filed as an exhibit to our 2011 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The form of indemnification agreement used by the Company contains provisions that require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and executive officers against certain liabilities (other than liabilities arising from intentional or knowing and culpable violations of law) that may arise by reason of their status or service as our directors or executive officers or other entities to which they provide service at our request and to advance expenses they may incur as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified. We believe that these provisions and agreements are necessary to attract and retain highly qualified individuals to serve the Company. We also have obtained an insurance

------

policy covering our directors and executive officers for claims that such directors and executive officers may otherwise be required to pay or for which we are required to indemnify them, subject to certain exclusions.

**Other Relationships and Transactions**

In September 2025, the Company consummated an exchange of $341.1 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's outstanding 0% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 (the "2026 Notes") for (i) an aggregate payment of $45.0 million in cash, (ii) $115.0 million in aggregate principal amount of the Company's 10.0% Second Lien Senior Subordinated Secured Notes due 2029 ("Second Lien Notes"), (iii) approximately 3.7 million shares of the Company's common stock and (iv) 26,551 shares of Series B Fixed Rate Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 ("Series B Preferred Stock", and such transaction, the "2025 Debt Exchange Transaction"). As holders of the 2026 Notes, the following entities received the consideration listed below in connection with the 2025 Debt Exchange Transaction:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain entities advised or managed by Linden Advisors LP received an aggregate (i) approximately $13.8 million in cash, (ii) approximately $35.3 million principal amount of Second Lien Notes, (iii) approximately 1.1 million shares of common stock and (iv) 8,162 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which converted into approximately 0.5 million shares of common stock in October 2025;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Certain entities advised or managed by Davidson Kempner Capital Management LP received an aggregate (i) approximately $8.5 million in cash, (ii) approximately $21.7 million principal amount of Second Lien Notes, (iii) approximately 0.7 million shares of common stock and (iv) 5,021 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which converted into approximately 0.3 million shares of common stock in October 2025; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Palogic Value Fund, LP, which is managed by an entity co-founded by Mr. Vardeman and for which he serves as a principal, received as (i) approximately $1.3 million in cash, (ii) approximately $3.3 million principal amount of Second Lien Notes, (iii) approximately 0.1 million shares of common stock, and (iv) 762 shares of Series B Preferred Stock, which converted into approximately 44,000 shares of common stock in October 2025.

In addition, the Company paid an aggregate $14.7 million of legal and advisory fees of the holders of 2026 Notes in connection with the Debt Exchange Transaction.

**Director Independence**

The Board has determined that the Chair of the Board, Mr. Miller, as well as Mr. Fletcher, Mr. Lane, Ms. Pegueros, Ms. Tjon, Mr. Vardeman, Mr. Wesemann and Mr. Zingale, are "independent" under the Nasdaq listing requirements and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC. As part of the Board's process in making such determination, each such director provided confirmation that (a) the objective criteria for independence pursuant to the Nasdaq rules are satisfied and (b) each such director has no other relationship with the Company that would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. Mr. Sabino, our CEO and a member of the Board, is an employee and therefore not "independent" under these requirements, rules and regulations.

**Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures**

The Audit Committee pre-approves all audit and permissible non-audit services. The Audit Committee has authorized each of its members to pre-approve audit, audit-related, tax and non-audit services, provided that such approved service is reviewed with the full Audit Committee at its next meeting.

As early as practicable in each fiscal year, the independent registered public accounting firm provides to the Audit Committee a schedule of the audit and other services that they expect to provide or may provide during the year. The schedule is specific as to the nature of the proposed services, the proposed fees and other details that the Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee by resolution authorizes or declines the proposed services. Upon approval, this schedule serves as the budget for fees by specific activity or service for the year.

A schedule of additional services proposed to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm or proposed revisions to services already approved, along with associated proposed fees, may be presented to the Audit Committee for their consideration and approval at any time. The schedule is required to be specific as to the nature of the proposed service, the proposed fee, and other details that the Audit Committee may request. The Audit Committee intends by resolution to authorize or decline authorization for each proposed new service.

To be timely, a stockholder's notice shall be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year's annual meeting; <u>provided</u>, <u>however</u>, that if either the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before or more than seventy (70) days after such anniversary date, notice by the stockholder to be timely must be so delivered not earlier than the close of business on the one hundred twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (a) as to each person whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors, or is otherwise required, in each case pursuant to Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act") and Rule 14a-11 thereunder (including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); (b) as to any other business that the stockholder proposes to bring before the meeting, the text of the proposal or business (including the text of any resolutions proposed for consideration and in the event that such business includes a proposal to amend these Bylaws, the language of the proposed amendment), the reasons for conducting such business at the meeting and any material interest in such business of such stockholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made; and (c) as to the stockholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made (i) the name and address of such stockholder, as they appear on the Corporation's books, and of such beneficial owner, (ii) the class and number of shares of capital stock of the Corporation which are owned beneficially and of record by such stockholder and such beneficial owner, (iii) a representation that the stockholder is a holder of record of stock of the Corporation entitled to vote at such meeting and intends to appear in person or by proxy at the meeting to propose such business or nomination, and (iv) a representation whether the stockholder or the beneficial owner, if any, intends or is part of a group which intends (y) to deliver a proxy statement and/or form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation's outstanding capital stock required to approve or adopt the proposal or elect the nominee and/or (z) otherwise to solicit proxies from stockholders in support of such proposal or nomination.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;4.Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, and notwithstanding the fact that a lesser percentage may be specified by law, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 66.67% of the votes which all the stockholders would be entitled to cast at any annual election of directors or class of directors shall be required to amend or repeal, or to adopt any provision inconsistent with, this Section 12.

**Article IV**<br>**Directors**

The members of each class shall be elected for a term of three years and until their successors are elected and qualified. The Board of Directors shall be classified in accordance with the provisions of the Corporation's Certificate of Incorporation. Directors need not be stockholders.

Section 2.Vacancies and newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors may be filled by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, though less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and the directors so chosen shall hold office until the next annual election at which such director's class is to be elected and until their successors are duly elected and shall qualify, unless sooner displaced. If there are no directors in office, then an election of directors may be held in the manner provided by statute. If, at the time of filling any vacancy or any newly created directorship, the directors then in office shall constitute less than a majority of the whole Board (as constituted immediately prior to any such increase), the Delaware Court of Chancery may, upon application of any stockholder or stockholders holding at least ten percent (10%) of the total number of the shares at the time outstanding having the right to vote for such directors, summarily order an election to be held to fill any such vacancies or newly created directorships, or to replace the directors chosen by the directors then in office.

Section 3.The business of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of its Board of Directors which may exercise all such powers of the Corporation and do all such lawful acts and things as are not by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation or by these Bylaws directed or required to be exercised or done by the stockholders.

Such participation shall constitute presence in person.

Section 6.Special meetings of the Board may be called by the Corporation's Chairman of the Board, Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer or President on not less than two (2) days' notice to each director by mail or not less than twenty four (24) hours' notice to each director, either personally or by facsimile; special meetings shall be called by the Corporation's Chairman of the Board, Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary in like manner and on like notice on the written request of two directors, unless the Board consists of only one director, in which case special meetings shall be called by the Corporation's Chairman of the Board, Lead Independent Director, Chief Executive Officer, President or Secretary in like manner and on like notice on the written request of the sole director.

Section 7.At all meetings of the Board a majority of the directors fixed by Section 1 of this Article shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business, and the act of a majority of the directors present at any meeting at which there is a quorum shall be the act of the Board of Directors, except as may be otherwise specifically provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation.

Section 8.Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board, or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, and the writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the Board of Directors or committee.

Section 9.Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, members of the Board of Directors, or any committee designated by the Board of Directors, may participate in a meeting of the Board of Directors, or any committee, by means of conference telephone or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating in the meeting can hear each other, and such participation in a meeting shall constitute presence in person at the meeting.

The Board of Directors may designate one or more directors as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or disqualified member at any meeting of the committee.

In the absence or disqualification of a member of a committee, the member or members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, whether or not such member or members constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place of any such absent or disqualified member.

------
