Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
At the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) of Zscaler, Inc. (the “Company”) held on January 10, 2025, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve an amendment and restatement of the Zscaler, Inc. FY2018 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2018 Plan”) to eliminate the original 10-year term of the 2018 Plan. The terms of the amended and restated 2018 Plan (the “A&R Plan”) replace the existing terms of the 2018 Plan, and future awards made under the A&R Plan will be made consistent with its terms as amended. The A&R Plan is a long-term incentive plan and provides for grants of nonstatutory stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units, stock appreciation rights, performance units and performance shares to executive officers, employees, directors and consultants of the Company and any subsidiary corporation of the Company. The Company primarily grants restricted stock awards subject to time-based and, for certain grants, performance-based vesting. Because future awards under the A&R Plan will be subject to approval at the discretion of the Company’s compensation committee, the type, number, recipients and other terms of such awards cannot be determined at this time.
The foregoing description of the A&R Plan does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the A&R Plan, which was filed as Annex B to the definitive proxy statement for the Annual Meeting held on January 10, 2025, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 22, 2024.
