 Exhibit 10.3 

SOCIAL CAPITAL SUVRETTA HOLDINGS CORP. III 

DIRECTOR RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT 

This Director Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement (this “RSU Award Agreement”), dated as of September 24, 2021 (the
“Grant Date”), is made by and between Social Capital Suvretta Holdings Corp. III, an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “Company”), and Uma Sinha
(the “Participant”). The terms of this RSU Award Agreement shall be governed by the terms of the omnibus equity incentive plan to be adopted by the Company and submitted for approval by the Company’s shareholders in
connection with the Company’s initial Business Combination (as defined below) (the “Plan”). Certain capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined are defined in Section 6. 

1. Grant of Restricted Units. The Company hereby grants to the Participant 30,000 restricted stock units (the
“RSUs”), subject to all of the terms and conditions of this RSU Award Agreement and the Plan. 
 2. Vesting. 

(a) Subject to Sections 2(b) and 7, the RSUs shall become vested in full upon the consummation of the Company’s initial Business
Combination (the “Vesting Date”); provided that the Participant remains in continuous service as a member of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) through the time that is immediately prior to
the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination. In the event that the Company does not consummate a Business Combination prior to the date required under its Governing Documents, all RSUs shall be automatically forfeited without
consideration, and this RSU Award Agreement shall be null and void. 
 (b) If the Participant’s service as a member of the Board is
terminated for any reason prior to the time that is immediately prior to the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, then on the date of such termination from service (i) this RSU Award Agreement shall terminate and all
rights of the Participant with respect to the RSUs shall immediately terminate, (ii) the RSUs shall be forfeited without payment of any consideration, and (iii) neither the Participant nor any of the Participant’s successors, heirs,
assigns, or personal representatives shall thereafter have any further rights or interests in the RSUs. 
 3. Settlement. Each RSU
granted hereunder shall represent the notional right to receive a single Ordinary Share and, upon a Domestication, if any, each RSU shall be converted into the notional right to receive a single share of Common Stock. Vested RSUs shall be settled in
Ordinary Shares or shares of Common Stock, as applicable, on a date determined in the sole discretion of the Company that shall occur between the Vesting Date and March 15 of the year following the year in which vesting occurs. 

4. Equitable Adjustment. In the event of any Change in Capitalization (other than in connection with a Business Combination), an
equitable substitution or proportionate adjustment shall be made in (i) the kind and number of Shares or other securities or the amount of cash or amount or type of other property subject to outstanding RSUs granted under this Agreement; and/or
(ii) the terms and conditions of this RSU Award Agreement; provided, however, that any 

 
fractional shares resulting from the adjustment shall be eliminated. The Company is further authorized to make adjustments in the terms and conditions of, and the criteria included in, this RSU
Award Agreement in recognition of unusual or infrequent events (including, without limitation, the events described in this Section 4, but excluding an initial Business Combination) affecting the Company or the financial statements of the
Company, including but not limited to changes in the number or conversion rights associated with the Class B Shares, or of changes in applicable laws, regulations, or accounting principles, whenever the Company determines that such adjustments
are appropriate in order to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under this RSU Award Agreement. 

5. Voting and Other Rights. The Participant shall have no rights of a stockholder with respect to the RSUs (including, without
limitation, the right to vote and the right to receive distributions or dividends) unless and until Shares are issued in respect thereof in accordance with Section 3; provided that with respect to the period commencing on the Grant
Date and ending on the date the Shares subject to such RSUs are issued in accordance with Section 3, the Participant shall be eligible to receive an amount equal to the product of (a) the number of Shares to be delivered as a result of
such vesting and settlement, multiplied by (b) the amount of cash distributed by the Company with respect to an outstanding Share during such period, which amount shall be paid to the Participant on the date such Shares are issued
(provided that such amount shall not be paid to the extent that any RSUs do not become vested and Shares are not delivered). No interest or other earnings shall be credited with respect to such payment. 

6. Definitions. As used herein, the following defined terms have the definitions set forth below: 

(a) “Business Combination” shall mean a merger, share exchange, asset acquisition, share purchase, reorganization or similar
business combination, involving the Company and one or more businesses.

(ii) special or extraordinary dividend or other extraordinary distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares or other property), share split, reverse share split, share subdivision or consolidation, (iii) combination or exchange of
Shares or (iv) other change in corporate structure, which, in any such case, the Company determines, in its sole discretion, affects the Shares such that an adjustment pursuant to Section 4 is appropriate. 

(c) “Class B Shares” shall mean the Class B ordinary shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per
share. 
 (d) “Common Stock” shall mean the common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company following a

(f) “Governing Document” shall mean (i) prior to a Domestication, the Company’s amended and restated memorandum and
articles of association, as the same may be amended from time to time, and (ii) upon and following a Domestication, its certificate of incorporation and bylaws, as the same may be amended from time to time.

 (g) “Ordinary Shares” shall mean the Class A ordinary shares of the
Company, par value $0.0001 per share.

7. RSU Award Agreement Subject to Plan and Shareholder Approval. This RSU Award Agreement is made pursuant to all of the provisions of
the Plan, which is incorporated herein by this reference, and is intended, and shall be interpreted in a manner, to comply therewith. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this RSU Award Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the
provisions of this RSU Award Agreement shall govern. The Participant hereby acknowledges that all decisions, determinations and interpretations of the Administrator (as defined in the Plan) in respect of the Plan, this RSU Award Agreement and the
RSUs shall be final and conclusive. This RSU Award Agreement and the grant of RSUs hereunder is expressly contingent upon approval of the Plan and the overall share limit set forth thereunder by the Board (or a designated committee thereof) and the
Company’s shareholders. If the Plan is not so approved on or prior to the consummation of the Company’s initial Business Combination, this RSU Award Agreement shall be null and void ab initio. Any issuance of Shares in respect of RSUs
shall be issued under and pursuant to the terms of the Plan. 
 8. Regulations and Other Approvals. 

(a) Any resale of the Shares received in respect of RSUs shall be made in compliance with the registration requirement of the Securities Act
of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or an applicable exemption therefrom, including, without limitation, the exemption provided by Rule 144 promulgated thereunder (or any successor rule, “Rule 144”). 

(b) The obligation of the Company to deliver Shares with respect to any RSU granted hereunder shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules
and regulations, including all applicable federal and state securities laws, and the obtaining of all such approvals by governmental agencies as may be deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company. 

(c) Each RSU is subject to the requirement that, if at any time the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the listing, registration
or qualification of Shares issuable hereunder is required by any securities exchange or under any state or federal law, or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection
with, the grant of an RSU or the issuance of Shares, no such RSU shall be granted or Shares issued, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval has been effected or obtained free of any conditions not
acceptable to the Company. 

  
 -3- 

 9. Participant Representations and Warranties. This RSU Award Agreement and the grant
of RSUs hereunder is expressly conditioned on the Participant’s acceptance and agreement to the representations and warranties set forth in Annex A. All representations and warranties contained in Annex A shall survive the
execution of this RSU Award Agreement and the grant of the RSUs contemplated hereby. The Participant agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its Affiliates from any liability, loss or expense (including, without limitation, reasonable
attorneys’ fees) if the Participant has breached any representation or warranty hereunder. 
 10. No Rights to Continuation of
Service. Nothing in the Plan or this RSU Award Agreement shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the service of the Company or any Affiliate thereof or shall interfere with or restrict the right of the Company or its
Affiliates to terminate the Participant’s service at any time for any reason whatsoever. 
 11. Taxes. The Participant
understands that the Participant (and not the Company) shall be responsible for any tax liability that may arise as a result of the transactions contemplated by this RSU Award Agreement. 

12. Section 409A and Section 457A. The intent of the parties is that the payments and benefits under this RSU Award
Agreement comply with Section 409A of the Code and be exempt from Section 457A of the Code, to the extent subject thereto, and accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, this RSU Award Agreement shall be interpreted and administered to
be in compliance therewith or exempt therefrom, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Participant shall not be considered to have terminated service with the Company for purposes of any payments under this RSU
Award Agreement that are subject to Section 409A of the Code until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Each amount to
be paid or benefit to be provided under this RSU Award Agreement shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. Without limiting the foregoing and notwithstanding anything contained herein to the
contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to this RSU Award
Agreement or any other arrangement between the Participant and the Company during the six-month period immediately following the Participant’s separation from service shall instead be paid on the first
business day after the date that is six months following the Participant’s separation from service (or, if earlier, the Participant’s date of death). The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments described in this RSU
Award Agreement will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant shall be
solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A or Section 457A of the Code. 
 13.
Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This RSU Award Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware. All disputes arising out of this RSU Award Agreement shall be subject to the exclusive
jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery located in the State of Delaware (and only if such court lacks or declines jurisdiction, any other state or federal court located in the State of Delaware), and the parties agree and submit to the personal and
exclusive jurisdiction and venue of these courts.  

  
 -4- 

 14. RSU Award Agreement Binding on Successors. The terms of this RSU Award Agreement
shall be binding upon the Participant and upon the Participant’s heirs, executors, administrators, personal representatives and successors in interest, and upon the Company and its successors and assignees, subject to the terms of the Plan.

 15. No Assignment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this RSU Award Agreement, neither this RSU Award Agreement nor any
rights granted herein shall be assignable by the Participant. 
 16. Necessary Acts. The Participant hereby agrees to perform all
acts, and to execute and deliver any other documents that may be reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this RSU Award Agreement, including but not limited to all acts and documents related to compliance with federal and/or state
securities and/or tax laws. 
 17. Severability. Should any provision of this RSU Award Agreement be held by a court of competent
jurisdiction to be unenforceable, or enforceable only if modified, such holding shall not affect the validity of the remainder of this RSU Award Agreement, the balance of which shall continue to be binding upon the parties hereto with any such
modification (if any) to become a part hereof and treated as though contained in this original RSU Award Agreement. Moreover, if one or more of the provisions contained in this RSU Award Agreement shall for any reason be held to be excessively broad
as to scope, activity, subject or otherwise so as to be unenforceable, in lieu of severing such unenforceable provision, such provision or provisions shall be construed by the appropriate judicial body by limiting or reducing it or them, so as to be
enforceable to the maximum extent compatible with the applicable law as it shall then appear, and such determination by such judicial body shall not affect the enforceability of such provisions or provisions in any other jurisdiction. 

18. Entire Agreement. This RSU Award Agreement, the Plan and the letter agreement, dated as of the date hereof (the “Letter
Agreement”), between the Company and the Participant, contain the entire agreement and understanding among the parties as to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes any other agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, express or
implied, with respect to the subject matter hereof. 
 19. Headings. Headings are used solely for the convenience of the parties and
shall not be deemed to be a limitation upon or descriptive of the contents of any such Section. 
 20. Counterparts; Electronic
Signature. This RSU Award Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same instrument. A party’s electronic signature
of this RSU Award Agreement shall have the same validity and effect as a signature affixed by such party’s hand. 
 21.
Amendment. No amendment or modification hereof shall be valid unless it shall be in writing and signed by all parties hereto. 

  
 -5- 

 22. Waiver against Trust Account. The Participant acknowledges that the Participant
has no right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account or any other asset of the Company as a result of any liquidation of the Company with respect to the RSUs. The Participant hereby further acknowledges
that the Participant shall have no right of set-off or any other right, title, interest or claim of any kind (“Claim”) in, or to any distribution of, the Trust Account and hereby agrees not to
seek recourse, reimbursement, payment or satisfaction for any Claim against the Trust Account for any reason whatsoever. The Participant hereby waives any and all Claims against the Trust Account and any and all rights to seek access to the Trust
Account.

    DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

     

    The following description of the capital stock of Piedmont Lithium Inc., a Delaware corporation, is a summary only. This summary is subject
      to the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “DGCL”) and the complete text of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (our “Certificate of Incorporation”) and our Amended and Restated By-laws (our “By-laws”).

     

    All references to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” “our” and “ours” refer to Piedmont Lithium Inc. and not any of its subsidiaries.

     

    General

     

    Under our Certificate of Incorporation, we are authorized to issue up to 100,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, and
      10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share.

     

    Common Stock

     

    Voting Rights. The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters on which stockholders are generally entitled to vote; provided, however, that, except as otherwise required by law,
        holders of common stock, as such, are not entitled to vote on any amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation that relates solely to the terms of one or more outstanding series of preferred stock if the holders of such affected series are
        entitled, either separately or together with the holders of one or more other such series, to vote thereon pursuant to our Certificate of Incorporation. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.
        Accordingly, the holders of a majority of the combined voting power of our common stock could, if they so choose, elect all the directors.

     

    Dividends. Subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock, holders of common stock are entitled to receive any dividends to the extent permitted by law when, as and if declared by
        our board of directors.

     

    Liquidation. Upon our dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the Company, subject to the rights of the holders of any outstanding series of preferred stock, the holders of shares of common stock are entitled to
        receive the assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders ratably in proportion to the number of shares held by them.

     

    Other Matters. Our Certificate of Incorporation does not entitle holders of our common stock to preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions
        applicable to our common stock. The common stock may be subdivided or combined in any manner unless the other class is subdivided or combined in the same proportion. All outstanding shares of our common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

     

    Authorized but Unissued Preferred Stock

     

    Unless required by law or by any stock exchange on which our common stock may be listed, the authorized shares of preferred stock will be
      available for issuance without further action by our stockholders. Delaware law does not require stockholder approval for any issuance of authorized shares. However, the listing requirements of Nasdaq, which apply as long as our common stock is
      listed on Nasdaq, require stockholder approval of certain issuances equal to or exceeding 20% of the combined voting power of our common stock. These additional shares may be used for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings
      to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans.

  

   

    
      
        

    

    
    Our Certificate of Incorporation authorizes our board of directors to establish from time to time the number of shares to be included in each
      series of preferred stock, and to fix the designation, powers, preferences, and relative, participating, optional or other rights, if any, and the qualifications, limitations or restrictions, if any, of the shares of each series of preferred stock.
      Our board of directors is also able to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of any series of preferred stock (but not below the number of shares of that series of preferred stock then outstanding) without any further vote or action by
      the stockholders.

     

    The existence of unissued and unreserved common stock or preferred stock may enable our board of directors to issue shares to persons
      friendly to current management, which could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of the Company by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise, and could thereby protect the continuity of our management and
      possibly deprive stockholders of opportunities to sell their shares of common stock at prices higher than prevailing market prices.

     

    Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law, Our Certificate of Incorporation and Our By-laws

     

    Certain provisions of Delaware law, our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-laws could make the acquisition of the Company more difficult
      and could delay, defer or prevent a tender offer or other takeover attempt that a stockholder might consider to be in its best interest, including takeover attempts that might result in the payment of a premium to stockholders over the market price
      for their shares. These provisions also may promote the continuity of our management by making it more difficult for a person to remove or change the incumbent members of our board of directors.

     

    Authorized but Unissued Shares; Undesignated
        Preferred Stock. The authorized but unissued shares of our common stock are available for future issuance without stockholder approval except as required by law or by
        any stock exchange on which our common stock may be listed. These additional shares may be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future public offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans. In
        addition, our board of directors may authorize, without stockholder approval, the issuance of undesignated preferred stock with voting rights or other rights or preferences designated from time to time by our board of directors. The existence of
        authorized but unissued shares of common stock or preferred stock may enable our board of directors to render more difficult or to discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a merger, tender offer, proxy contest or otherwise.

     

    Board Classification. Our Certificate of Incorporation provides that our board of directors is divided into three classes of directors, with the classes to be as nearly equal in number as possible, and
        with the directors serving three-year terms. As a result, approximately one-third of our board of directors is elected each year. The classification of directors has the effect of making it more difficult for stockholders to change the composition
        of our board of directors. Our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-laws provide that, subject to any rights of holders of preferred stock to elect additional directors under specified circumstances, the number of directors may be fixed from
        time to time exclusively pursuant to a resolution adopted by our board of directors.

     

    No Cumulative Voting. Holders of our common stock do not have cumulative voting rights in the election of directors.

     

    Special Meetings of Stockholders. Our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-laws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by our board of directors. Only such business shall be
        conducted at a special meeting of stockholders as shall have been brought before the meeting by or at the direction of our board of directors.

     

      

    
      2

      
        

    

    
      Stockholder Action by Written Consent. Pursuant to Section 228 of the DGCL, any action required to be taken at any annual or special meeting of the stockholders may be taken without a meeting, without prior notice and
          without a vote if a consent or consents in writing, setting forth the action so taken, is signed by the holders of outstanding stock having not less than the minimum number of votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a
          meeting at which all shares of our stock entitled to vote thereon were present and voted, unless our certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our Certificate of Incorporation precludes stockholder action by written consent.

       

      Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder
          Proposals and Nomination of Directors. Our By-laws require stockholders seeking to bring business before an annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate individuals
          for election as directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders, to provide timely notice in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the close of
          business on the 90th day nor earlier than the close of business on the 120th day, prior to the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. However, in the event that the date of the annual meeting is more than 30 days before or more than
          60 days after such anniversary date, such notice will be timely only if delivered not earlier than the close of business on the 120th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to
          such annual meeting or the tenth day following the date on which a public announcement of the date of such annual meeting is first made by us. Our By-laws also specify requirements as to the form and content of a stockholder’s notice. These
          provisions may preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our meetings of stockholders. These provisions may also discourage or deter a potential acquiror
          from conducting a solicitation of proxies to elect the potential acquiror’s own slate of directors or otherwise attempting to obtain control of the Company.

       

      Removal of Directors; Vacancies. Under the DGCL, unless otherwise provided in our Certificate of Incorporation, directors serving on a classified board may be removed by the stockholders only for cause. Our
          Certificate of Incorporation provides that directors may only be removed for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 662/3% in the voting power of the stock outstanding and entitled to vote thereon. In addition, our Certificate of Incorporation also provides that any newly created directorship on our
          board of directors resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors and any vacancies in our board of directors may be filled solely by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors then in office, even though
          less than a quorum, or by the sole remaining director (and not by the stockholders).

       

      Supermajority Provisions. Our Certificate of Incorporation and our By-laws provide that our board of directors is expressly authorized to adopt, amend or repeal our By-laws without a stockholder vote. Any
          adoption, amendment or repeal of our By-laws by our stockholders requires the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 662/3% of the voting power of the stock outstanding and entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class.

       

      The DGCL provides generally that the affirmative vote of a
          majority of the outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, is required to amend a corporation’s certificate of incorporation, unless the certificate of incorporation requires a greater percentage. Our
