The Company has granted restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to certain of its employees under the 2021 Plan, as part of its equity compensation program. Pursuant to the terms of the applicable award agreements, each RSU represents the right to receive one share of the Company’s common stock. All restricted stock units outstanding as of June 30, 2022 will vest, if at all, upon the achievement of specified development milestones associated with the Company’s DB-OTO program, provided the applicable employee remains continuously employed with the Company on the vesting date. Upon vesting, shares of the Company’s common stock will be delivered to the employee, subject to the payment of applicable withholding taxes. As of June 30, 2022, total unrecognized compensation cost related to the unvested restricted stock units was approximately $1.1 million, which will not be recognized until it becomes probable that the performance conditions will be met.
