Company Severance Plans
On September 30, 2024, the Compensation and Talent Management Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Twilio Inc. (the “Company”) amended the Company’s Amended Chief Executive Officer Severance Plan (the “CEO Severance Plan”) and the Company’s Senior Executive Severance Plan covering the non-CEO members of the Company’s executive team (the “Senior Executive Severance Plan” and together with the CEO Severance Plan, the “Severance Plans”), in each case to provide that a specified percentage of the participant’s annual target bonus would be payable upon a qualifying termination in connection with a change in control.
The amended Severance Plans provide that if a participant in the applicable Severance Plan is terminated (i) by the Company other than for Cause (as defined in the applicable Severance Plan), death or disability or (ii) by the participant for Good Reason (as defined in the applicable Severance Plan), in each case within the period beginning three months prior to and ending 12 months after, a Change in Control (as defined in the applicable Severance Plan), an eligible participant will be entitled to receive, subject to the execution and effectiveness of a general release of claims in favor of the Company, (i) a lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of (A) 24 months (in the case of the CEO Severance Plan) or 18 months (in the case of the Senior Executive Severance Plan) of base salary, and (B) 200% (in the case of the CEO Severance Plan) or 150% (in the case of the Senior Executive Severance Plan) of annual target bonus, (ii) if the participant was participating in the Company’s group health plan immediately prior to the date of termination and elects COBRA health continuation, a monthly cash payment equal to the monthly employer contribution that the Company would have made to provide health insurance to the participant if the participant had remained employed, for up to 24 months (in the case of the CEO Severance Plan) or up to 18 months (in the case of the Senior Executive Severance Plan), and (iii) for both Severance Plans, full accelerated vesting of all outstanding and unvested equity awards held by such participant; provided, that any unvested and outstanding equity awards subject to performance conditions will be deemed satisfied at the target levels specified in the applicable award agreements.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the applicable Severance Plan. The amended CEO Severance Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference. The amended Senior Executive Severance Plan is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and is incorporated by reference.
