Dear Saurabh:

In addition, upon acceptance of our offer, I will recommend that the Board of Directors of the Company grant you (a) an option to purchase an aggregate of 95,207 shares of Common Stock of the Company at a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of such shares on the date of grant and (b) a second option to purchase an aggregate of 19,041 shares of Common Stock of the Company to be granted contingent upon and following the close of the Company’s next major financing transaction in which proceeds to the Company (net of all expenses) are at least $100 million. The options will be governed by the Company’s 2016 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) and stock option agreements to be entered into between the Company and you. The stock option agreements will provide, among other things, that, subject to your continued employment with the Company, your options shall vest over a four-year period (25% upon the one-year anniversary of the date that you become an employee of the Company and in 36 equal monthly installments thereafter); provided, however, that if your employment is terminated without Cause (as defined in the Incentive Plan) or you resign for Good Reason, in each case within twelve (12) months of a Corporate Transaction (as defined in the Incentive Plan), all unvested shares subject to your options shall automatically vest in full.

For purposes of this offer letter, “Good Reason” means any of the following events if (A) such event is affected without your consent, (B) you provide written notice to the Company that such event constitutes Good Reason within 10 days of the occurrence thereof, (C) you concurrently with such notice provides the Company with a period of thirty (30) days to cure such event, and (D) the Company fails to cure such event within such period and (E) you actually terminate your employment with the Company within ten (10) days following the failure of the Company to cure such event with the prescribed period: (a) a material reduction in your base salary; (b) a material change in your title; (c) a material reduction your level of responsibility or duties; or (d) a relocation of your principal place of employment by more than fifty (50) miles from your current primary residence as of the date of this offer letter.

In addition to your salary and stock option, you will be eligible for a performance-based cash bonus of up to $50,000, the exact amount of which shall be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion, based on a review of your performance for the year ending December 31, 2021.

In addition to your salary and stock option, you will be entitled to the benefits of similarly situated employees as those policies are developed and amended by the Company.
