Eligibility for Award. On the date of each of the Company’s annual stockholders’ meetings (the “Annual Meeting”), each person who is or becomes an Eligible Director at such meeting and whose service on the Board is expected to continue following such meeting shall be granted an RSU Award. The grant entitles an Eligible Director to receive Shares on a one-to-one RSU-to-Share basis upon vesting as set forth in the vesting schedule in the Award Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Award Agreement.

Eligibility for Award. On the date of each of the Company’s annual stockholders’ meetings (the “Annual Meeting”), each person who is or becomes an Eligible Director at such meeting and whose service on the Board is expected to continue following such meeting shall be granted an Award of Restricted Stock.
(i) Amount of Award. The number of RSUs awarded shall be determined by the Board of Directors from time to time (the “Equity Retainer”). If an Eligible Director begins serving as a director other than as of the date of an Annual Meeting, the RSU Award granted hereunder shall be granted at the meeting of the Board of Directors that takes place on or after the date such Eligible Director is first elected or appointed to the Board, and such Award shall be pro-rated to reflect the partial service provided by such Eligible Director in the period between Annual Meetings.
Annual Grants. Each continuing non-employee director who has served as a member of our Board for at least six months prior to the date of our annual meeting of stockholders for a particular year will be granted, automatically and without the need for any further action by the Board, an equity award on the date of our annual meeting of stockholders for such year equal to 45,000 RSUs with respect to shares of our common stock. The annual award shall vest in full on the one-year anniversary of the grant date of the award (or, if earlier, the date of our next annual meeting of stockholders following the date of grant of the award), subject to the director’s continued service as a director, employee or consultant with the Company through such vesting date. The vesting of such award shall accelerate as to 100% of the award upon a change in control of the Company.
Each Annual RSU Award shall become fully vested, subject to the applicable Non-Employee Director’s continued service as a director, on the earliest of the 12-month anniversary of the date of grant, the next annual meeting of stockholders following the date of grant or the consummation of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan).
Annual RSUs. Each award of Annual RSUs shall vest on the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the day immediately prior to the date of the next annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders occurring after the date of grant, in either case, subject to the Non-Employee Director continuing in service as a Non-Employee Director through such vesting date.
Initial Awards. Each Nonemployee Director elected to the Board after this Policy is adopted, other than at an annual meeting of stockholders (a “New Director”), will be eligible to receive an RSU award (an “Initial Award”) based on the dollar amounts set forth in the following table, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days that will elapse between and including the date of his or her appointment and the first anniversary of the previous annual meeting of stockholders, and the denominator of which is 365:
Program Awards. Program Awards will consist of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) awarded under Section 9 of the Plan. An Eligible Director shall be automatically granted a Program Award in the form of RSUs as follows: # in the case of an Eligible Director who is first elected to the Board between annual meetings of stockholders of the Company, on the date of such first election; and # in case of each Eligible Director (including an Eligible Director described in clause (i)) who is elected (including reelected) at an annual meeting of stockholders of the Company, immediately following each such annual meeting.
Annual Awards: On the first business day following the conclusion of each regular annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, commencing with the 2021 annual meeting, each Independent Director who has served on the Board for at least six months and will continue serving as a member of the Board thereafter, shall receive a grant of RSUs (“Annual RSU Award”) under the Plan with respect to a number of shares of common stock equal to $250,000 divided by the average closing price of the Company’s common stock on The Nasdaq Global Market for the period of twenty (20) trading days ending on the day prior to the date of grant. Each Annual RSU Award shall become fully vested on the February 20, May 20, August 20, or November 20 falling in the one-year anniversary quarter of the annual meeting, provided that (i) if the next years’ annual meeting date occurs prior to such vesting date and (ii) such Independent Director’s service will not continue following the annual meeting, then the Annual RSU Award for such Independent Director will vest on the day prior to the date of the annual meeting. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Annual RSU Award shall become 100% vested if a Change in Control as defined in the Plan occurs during such Independent Director’s service.
