On November 16, 2023, the board of directors (the “Board”) of RYVYL Inc. (the “Company”) adopted the RYVYL Inc. 2023 Long Term Incentive (LTI) Plan (“LTIP”). Under the Terms of the LTIP, each year the Company’s Chief Operating Officer (“COO”) has the responsibility to submit to the Board a list of eligible employees for participation in the LTIP for the next succeeding year and a summary of awards. All employees are eligible to participate in the LTIP, subject to selection by the COO; provided that, among other requirements, employees must be employed by September 30^th of the applicable year to be eligible. The LTIP operates on a calendar year and payouts, if applicable, will be made no more than two weeks after the filing of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K with the Securities and Exchange Commission. LTIP awards are based on overall financial performance objectives, which are determined by using the Company’s performance history and management’s judgment of what reasonable levels can be reached, based on previous experience. If the Company does not meet minimum performance levels, there will be no payouts for the Company performance objectives. However, LTIP participants may still be eligible to receive payouts related to their department or individual performance objectives. All awards are granted under one of the Company’s equity incentive plans for which the shares available for award thereunder are registered on a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (“each, an “Equity Plan”). Vesting of awards will be determined by the Company’s Compensation Committee and will be set forth in each participant’s award agreement. The LTIP is jointly administered by the Company’s Compensation Committee, the COO and the Company’s legal staff. In the event a participant’s employment is terminated prior to the vesting of any LTIP awards, such awards shall be treated as provided under the terms of the applicable Equity Plan. Additionally, in the event that the Company or any of its affiliates are subject to the applicable requirements of the Emergency Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, as amended from time to time, including but not limited to amendments enacted by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (“TARP”), the LTIP will be directed in compliance with any incentive compensation limitations and clawback requirements provided for under the TARP requirements.

The foregoing description of the terms of the LTIP is qualified in its entirety by reference to the provisions of LTIP filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, which is incorporated by reference herein.
