Pursuant to the form of Stock Option Agreement, grants of Stock Options that may be made under the 2024 Plan and form of Stock Option Agreement will be subject to time-based vesting restrictions, with one-third of the applicable award vesting on the anniversary of the grant date, one-third vesting on the second anniversary of the grant date, and the final one-third vesting on the third anniversary of the grant date. In the event the grantee ceases to be employed by or a director of the Company during the applicable option exercise period for any reason other than death or termination for cause, such grantee shall have the ability to exercise that portion of the Stock Options that have vested as of the date of such cessation within three months of such cessation. After such three-month period, any unexercised portion of the Stock Options, including any unvested portion, will expire. If the employment of the grantee is terminated for cause, or in the case of a director grantee, removed for cause, the right to exercise the Stock Options shall automatically expire.
