AN INVITATION FROM NEUEHEALTH, INC.

Dear Fellow Stockholder:

We are pleased to invite you to the 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of NeueHealth, Inc., which will be held virtually on May 2, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. eastern time.

At our core, we are a value-driven healthcare company grounded in the belief that all health consumers are entitled to high-quality, coordinated healthcare. We believe that we can significantly reduce the current friction and lack of coordination in today’s healthcare system by aligning the interests of payors and providers to enable a seamless, consumer-centric healthcare experience that drives value for all.

At the end of 2022, we exited the ACA Marketplace as an insurer, ceasing coverage of commercial products through Bright HealthCare. We exited the Medicare Advantage market with the sale of our California Medicare Advantage business on January 1, 2024. After exiting the health insurance business, we adopted NeueHealth as our corporate brand name.

We continue to focus on delivering value-driven, consumer-centric healthcare through owned and affiliated clinics as well as enabling independent providers and medical groups to thrive in performance-based arrangements through deep financial alignment, customized population health tools, and strong partnerships with leading health plans and government programs.

Although our business has evolved over the last few years, our core beliefs have not changed. Since our founding, we have been committed to uniquely aligning the interests of payors, providers, and consumers to deliver a better healthcare experience for all. The healthcare industry continues to evolve and shift towards value-based care. We are confident in the future of our differentiated, value-driven care model focused on our two go-forward business segments, NeueCare and NeueSolutions.

At the Annual Meeting, we will consider the matters described in the Notice of 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and in the accompanying Proxy Statement. References in the Proxy Statement to the “Annual Meeting” also refer to any adjournments, postponements or changes in location of the Annual Meeting, to the extent applicable.

It is important that you use this opportunity to take part in the affairs of NeueHealth by voting on the business to come before the Annual Meeting, and we urge you to read the Proxy Statement for information concerning the matters to be considered at the Annual Meeting.

Please Vote as Soon as Possible

This Proxy Statement contains important information, and you should read it carefully. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we ask that you vote as soon as possible. You may vote by proxy via the Internet, telephone or by mail by following the instructions on the proxy card or voting instruction card or the information forwarded by your broker, bank or other holder of record. For detailed information regarding voting instructions, please refer to the accompanying Proxy Statement.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

GENERAL

This Proxy Statement is being furnished to the stockholders of NeueHealth, Inc. (“NeueHealth,” the “Company,” “we”, “our”, or “us”) in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board of Directors (the “Board”). The proxies are to be voted at our 2024 annual meeting of stockholders to be held virtually on Thursday, May 2, 2024, at 9:30 a.m. eastern time (the “Annual Meeting”). We have adopted a completely virtual format for our Annual Meeting through a live webcast. We believe this format will provide a consistent experience to our stockholders and allow all stockholders to participate in the Annual Meeting regardless of location. You will not be able to attend the Annual Meeting physically. Stockholders who own shares of our common stock as of March 22, 2024 (the “Record Date”), are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You should review these proxy materials carefully as they give important information about the proposals that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting, as well as other important information about NeueHealth.

Beginning on or about April 1, 2024, we mailed proxy materials to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners who owned shares of our common stock at the close of business on the Record Date. The mailing contained instructions on how to access the proxy materials and vote online. We have also made these proxy materials available to you over the Internet in connection with the solicitation of proxies by our Board for the Annual Meeting.

Choosing to receive your future proxy materials by e-mail will save us the cost of printing and mailing documents to you. If you choose to receive future proxy materials by e-mail, you will receive an e-mail next year with instructions containing a link to those materials and a link to the proxy voting site. Your election to receive proxy materials by e-mail will remain in effect until you terminate it.

COMMONLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT THE ANNUAL MEETING

Q: Why did I receive these materials?

The Board of NeueHealth is soliciting your proxy to vote at our Annual Meeting (or at any postponement or adjournment of the meeting). Stockholders who own shares of our common stock as of the Record Date are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. You should review these proxy materials carefully as they give important information about the proposals that will be voted on at the Annual Meeting, as well as other important information about NeueHealth.

Householding. The rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) permit us to print an individual’s multiple accounts on a single notice or set of annual meeting materials. To take advantage of this opportunity, we have summarized on one notice or set of Annual Meeting materials all of the accounts registered with the same tax identification number or duplicate name and address, unless we received contrary instructions from the impacted stockholder prior to the mailing date. We agree to deliver promptly, upon written or oral request, a separate copy of the notice or Annual Meeting materials, as requested, to any stockholder to which a single copy of those documents was delivered. If you prefer to receive separate copies of the notice or Annual Meeting materials, please contact Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc., Householding Department at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717, or by calling 1-866-540-7095. A number of brokerage firms have instituted householding. They will have their own procedures for stockholders who wish to receive individual copies of the proxy materials.

Q: What is a proxy?

A proxy is your legal designation of another person to vote the shares you own. That other person is called a proxy and a stockholder of record who is entitled to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting is entitled to appoint another person as its proxy to exercise all or any of its rights and to speak and vote at the Annual Meeting. If you designate someone as your proxy in a written document, that document also is called a proxy or a proxy card. G. Mike Mikan, our President and Chief Executive Officer, Jay Matushak, our Chief Financial Officer, and Jeff Craig, our General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, will serve as proxies for the Annual Meeting pursuant to the proxy card solicited by our Board.

A stockholder of record is entitled to appoint more than one proxy in relation to the Annual Meeting (provided that each proxy is appointed to exercise the rights attached to different ordinary shares). Such proxy need not be a stockholder of record, but must attend the Annual Meeting and vote as the stockholder of record instructs for such vote to be counted.

Q: Who will be entitled to vote?

Stockholders who own shares of our common stock as of the Record Date, March 22, 2024, are entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. As of the Record Date, NeueHealth had 8,224,541 shares of common stock outstanding. Holders of shares of common stock are entitled to one vote per share. Cumulative voting is not permitted with respect to the election

TABLE OF CONTENTS

of directors or any other matter to be considered at the Annual Meeting. Holders of the Company’s Series A Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A Preferred Stock”), or Series B Convertible Perpetual Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series B Preferred Stock”), will have no right to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Q: What will I be voting on?

You will be voting on:

1.the election of ten director nominees listed in this Proxy Statement to serve on the Board until the 2025 Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

2.the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as NeueHealth’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024;

3.the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers for 2023;

4.to approve the NeueHealth, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Amended Plan”); and

5.any other business as may properly come before the meeting or any adjournment of the meeting.

Q: How does the Board recommend I vote on these matters?

The Board recommends you vote:

1.FOR the election of the ten director nominees listed in this Proxy Statement to serve on the Board until the 2025 Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected and qualified;

2.FOR the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as NeueHealth’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024;

3.FOR the approval, on a non-binding advisory basis, of the compensation of our named executive officers for 2023; and

4.FOR the approval of the Amended Plan.

Q: How can I attend the Annual Meeting?

The Annual Meeting is being held as a virtual only meeting this year. If you are a stockholder of record as of the Record Date, you may attend, vote and ask questions virtually at the meeting by logging in at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NEUE2024 and providing your 16-digit control number. This number is included in the Notice or on your proxy card.

If you are a stockholder holding your shares in “street name” as of the Record Date, you may gain access to the meeting by following the instructions in the voting instruction card provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. You may not vote your shares via the Internet at the Annual Meeting unless you receive a valid proxy from your brokerage firm, bank, broker-dealer or other nominee holder. If you were not a stockholder as of the Record Date, you may still listen to the Annual Meeting, but will not be able to ask questions or vote at the meeting.

If you have questions, you may type them into the dialog box provided at any point during the meeting (until the floor is closed to questions). We will endeavor to answer as many stockholder-submitted questions as time permits that comply with the Annual Meeting rules of conduct. We reserve the right to exclude questions regarding topics that are not pertinent to meeting matters or Company business. If we receive substantially similar questions, we may group such questions together and provide a single response to avoid repetition. The audio broadcast of the Annual Meeting will be archived at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NEUE2024 for at least one year.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Q: How do I cast my vote?

Beneficial Stockholders. If you hold your shares through a broker, trustee or other nominee, you are a beneficial stockholder. In order to vote your shares, please refer to the materials forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other nominee for instructions on how to vote the shares you hold as a beneficial stockholder.

Registered Stockholders. If you hold shares on the books of our transfer agent, you are a stockholder of record (also referred to as a registered stockholder). If you were a holder of record on the Record Date, you may vote at the Annual Meeting, vote by proxy over the telephone, vote by proxy through the Internet or vote by proxy card. Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to vote by proxy to ensure your vote is counted. You may still attend the Annual Meeting and vote even if you have already voted by proxy.

•TO VOTE BY INTERNET: To vote through the Internet, you may complete an electronic proxy card at www.proxyvote.com or scan the QR barcode on your proxy card. Proxies submitted via the Internet must be received by 11:59 p.m. eastern time on May 1, 2024.

•TO VOTE BY PHONE: To vote by telephone, dial toll-free 800-690-6903 using any touch-tone telephone and follow the recorded instructions. Proxies submitted via the telephone must be received by 11:59 p.m. eastern time on May 1, 2024.

•TO VOTE BY MAIL: To vote by mail, you may mark, sign and date your proxy card and return it in the postage-paid envelope provided or return it to Vote Processing, c/o Broadridge, 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, NY 11717. Proxies submitted by U.S. mail must be received by 11:59 p.m. eastern time on May 1, 2024.

•TO VOTE DURING THE ANNUAL MEETING: If you held shares on the books of our transfer agent on the Record Date, you are a registered stockholder and may vote during the virtual Annual Meeting at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/NEUE2024. You will need to log in by entering your unique 16-digit control number included on your proxy card or on the voting instruction form accompanying these proxy materials. Only one person will be able to log in with that unique 16-digit control number at any time. Shares for which you are the beneficial owner but not the stockholder of record also may be voted electronically during the Annual Meeting, but you will need to obtain a legal proxy from the broker, trustee or other nominee through which you hold your shares in order to vote them electronically during the Annual Meeting.

However, even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, the Company recommends that you vote your shares in advance, so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

Q: Can I access the proxy materials electronically?

Yes. Your notice, proxy card or voting instruction card will contain instructions on how to:

1.view our proxy materials for the Annual Meeting on the Internet; and

2.instruct us to send our future proxy materials to you electronically by e-mail.

Instead of receiving future copies of our proxy statements and annual reports by mail, stockholders of record and most beneficial owners can elect to receive an email that will provide an electronic link to these documents. Your election to receive future proxy materials by email will remain in effect until you revoke it.

Q: How may I change or revoke my proxy?

Beneficial Stockholders. Beneficial stockholders should contact their broker, trustee or nominee for instructions on how to change their proxy vote.

Registered Stockholders. Registered stockholders may change a properly executed proxy at any time before its exercise by:

1.delivering written notice of revocation to the General Counsel and Corporate Secretary at our principal executive offices at 9250 NW 36th St Suite 420, Doral, Florida 33178;

2.submitting another proxy that is dated later than the original proxy (including a proxy via telephone or Internet); or

3.voting via the Internet at the Annual Meeting.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Q: What is the voting requirement to approve each of the proposals, and how are the votes counted?

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

A plurality of the votes cast by the shares of common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to elect each director nominee named herein. This means that the ten director nominees receiving the highest number of shares voted FOR them at the Annual Meeting will be elected, even if those votes do not constitute a majority of the votes cast. Shares voted WITHHELD and “broker non-votes” will not impact the election of the director nominees.

PROPOSAL 2 – RATIFICATION OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of common stock present or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon is required to approve this item, thus the number of shares voted FOR the proposal must exceed the number of shares voted AGAINST or ABSTAIN. Abstentions will be counted as present and entitled to vote on this proposal and will therefore have the effect of a vote against this proposal. As described below, brokerage firms can vote your uninstructed shares on this proposal at their discretion. We do not expect there to be any “broker non-votes” with respect to the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for 2024.

PROPOSAL 3 – ADVISORY VOTE ON NAMED EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION (“SAY-ON-PAY”)

PROPOSAL 4 - APPROVAL OF THE NEUEHEALTH, INC. SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED 2021 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN (THE “PLAN AMENDMENT PROPOSAL”)

Q: What is a “broker non-vote”?

A “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power for that particular item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Brokerage firms have the authority under the NYSE rules to cast votes on certain “routine” matters if they do not receive instructions from their customers. The ratification of the appointment of Deloitte as our independent auditors is considered a “routine” matter for which brokerage firms may vote shares for which they did not receive instructions from beneficial owners. All other items on this year’s ballot are “non-routine” matters under the NYSE rules for which brokers may not vote absent voting instructions from the beneficial owner.

Q: When will the results of the vote be announced?

The preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. The final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days of the Annual Meeting.

Q: What is the deadline for submitting a stockholder proposal or director nomination for the 2025 Annual Meeting?

To submit a stockholder proposal pursuant to SEC Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in NeueHealth’s proxy statement and form of proxy for NeueHealth’s 2025 annual meeting of stockholders, to be held in 2025, such proposal must be submitted in

TABLE OF CONTENTS

compliance with Rule 14a-8 and be received by NeueHealth at our principal executive offices at 9250 NW 36th St Suite 420, Doral, Florida 33178 no later than the close of business on November 30, 2024. Stockholders wishing to make a director nomination or bring a proposal before the annual meeting to be held in 2025 (but not to be included in NeueHealth’s proxy statement) must provide written notice of such nomination or proposal to the Corporate Secretary at NeueHealth’s principal executive offices no later than the end of day on February 3, 2025 and not earlier than the close of business on January 4, 2025, assuming NeueHealth does not change the date of the 2025 annual meeting of stockholders by more than 30 days before or after the anniversary of the 2024 Annual Meeting. If so, NeueHealth will release an updated time frame for stockholder proposals. Any director nomination or stockholder proposal must comply with the other provisions of our Amended and Restated Bylaws (our “Bylaws”) and be submitted in writing to the Corporate Secretary at NeueHealth’s principal executive offices.

In addition to satisfying the above requirements under our Bylaws, to comply with the universal proxy rules stockholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSALS TO BE VOTED ON AT THE ANNUAL MEETING

PROPOSAL 1 – ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

After considering the evolution of the Company’s business model, its updated strategy, and the size of the Board, in March 2024, our Board determined to reduce the size of the Board from 12 to 10, effective as of the date of the Annual Meeting. Our Board recommends that the 10 nominees below be elected as members of the Board, each for a one-year term or until their successors are duly elected or qualified:


Name	Age	Director Since
Kedrick D. Adkins Jr.	71	2020
Linda Gooden	70	2020
Jeffrey R. Immelt	68	2018
Manuel Kadre	58	2020
Stephen Kraus	47	2016
Mohamad Makhzoumi	44	2016
Matthew G. Manders	62	2022
G. Mike Mikan	52	2020
Robert J. Sheehy	66	2015
Andrew Slavitt	57	2021

A biography is included for each nominee beginning on page 16. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended that the Board nominate each nominee for election, and the Board recommends the election of each nominee.

There are no family relationships among our directors and director nominees, or between our directors, director nominees and executive officers.

All of the nominees are willing to serve as directors but, if before the Annual Meeting any nominee becomes unable to serve, or chooses not to serve, the Board may nominate a substitute. If that happens, the persons named as proxies on the proxy card will exercise the discretionary authority provided to vote for the election of such substitute nominee selected by our Board. Alternatively, the Board may either let the vacancy stay unfilled until an appropriate candidate is identified or reduce the size of the Board to eliminate the unfilled seat. The Board has no reason to believe that any such nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve. Unless otherwise indicated on the proxy, the persons named as proxies in the enclosed proxy will vote FOR each of the director nominees named herein.

VOTING RECOMMENDATION

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” each of the director nominees.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 2 – RATIFICATION OF THE APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has appointed Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as our independent registered public accounting firm in the United States and to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. The Audit Committee has been advised by Deloitte & Touche LLP that neither the firm, nor any member of the firm, has any financial interest, direct or indirect, in any capacity in us or our subsidiaries. Information concerning the services performed by Deloitte & Touche LLP and the fees for such services for 2023 and 2022 are set forth below under “Fees Billed by Deloitte & Touche LLP.” Although ratification is not required by our Bylaws or otherwise, as a matter of good corporate governance, the Audit Committee has determined to submit its selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP to stockholders for ratification.

A representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP will be present at the stockholders’ meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if he or she desires to do so and to respond to appropriate questions.

If NeueHealth’s stockholders do not ratify the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Audit Committee will reconsider the appointment and may affirm the appointment or retain another independent accounting firm. Even if the appointment is ratified, the Audit Committee may in the future replace Deloitte as our independent registered public accounting firm if it is determined that it is in NeueHealth’s best interests to do so.

The Audit Committee and Board believe that the continued retention of Deloitte & Touche LLP to serve as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders at this time.

VOTING RECOMMENDATION

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the ratification of the appointment of Deloitte & Touche LLP

as the independent registered public accounting firm for the year ending December 31, 2024.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROPOSAL 3 – NON-BINDING ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS FOR 2023

Pursuant to Section 14A of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), we are submitting a proposal to our stockholders for a non-binding advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers for 2023 as disclosed in this Proxy Statement in accordance with the compensation disclosure rules of the SEC. This say-on-pay proposal gives our stockholders the opportunity to express their views on the compensation of our named executive officers.

As described more fully in the Executive Compensation and Compensation Discussion and Analysis sections in this Proxy Statement, the guiding principles of our compensation policies and decisions include aligning each executive's compensation with our company's business strategy and the interests of our stockholders and providing incentives needed to attract, motivate and retain key executives who are important to our long-term success. Our overriding executive compensation philosophy is clear and consistent - we pay for performance. Consistent with this philosophy, a significant portion of the total compensation for each of our executives is directly related to our earnings and to other performance factors that measure our progress against the goals of our strategic and operating plans and the long-term performance of our ordinary shares.

Before casting your vote, we urge you to read the Compensation Discussion and Analysis section of this proxy statement, which discusses how our compensation design and practices reflect our compensation philosophy. The Compensation and Human Capital Committee (the “Compensation Committee”) and the Board believe that our compensation practices effectively implement our guiding principles.

This say-on-pay vote is not intended to address any specific item of compensation, but rather the overall compensation of our named executive officers and the principles, policies and practices described in this Proxy Statement.

This say-on-pay vote is advisory only, and therefore it will not bind the Company or our Board. However, the Board and the Compensation Committee will consider the voting results as appropriate when making future decisions regarding executive compensation.

VOTING RECOMMENDATION

The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the advisory vote to approve named executive officer

compensation for 2023.

PROPOSAL 4 - APPROVAL OF THE NEUEHEALTH, INC. SECOND AMENDED AND RESTATED 2021 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN

Our Compensation Committee and our Board have approved the NeueHealth, Inc. Second Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Amended Plan”), subject to approval by our stockholders at the Annual Meeting. We are asking our stockholders to approve the Amended Plan to authorize an additional 2,275,000 shares of our common stock to be issued under the Amended Plan. In connection with its review of this proposal, the Compensation Committee considered the information described below, as well as the favorable recommendation of Willis Towers Watson, the Compensation Committee’s compensation consultant. The following description of the proposed Amended Plan is a summary and is subject to the full text of the proposed amendment, which is attached to this proxy statement as Annex A.

The Amended Plan continues what we believe are good corporate governance practices from the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, such as requiring stockholder approval for any repricing of options or stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), administration by a committee composed of independent directors, “clawback” or recoupment of compensation provisions, limitations on share recycling, and specific limits on total director compensation.

The ability to issue equity is fundamental to our compensation strategy. Our objective is to increase the proportion of pay that is denominated in equity in order to strengthen the alignment of management rewards with the long-term returns delivered to our stockholders. Our success is dependent, in large part, on our ability to use market relevant compensation to attract, retain and motivate the most talented professionals. Our employees, particularly our senior executives, whose equity is tied to Company and individual performance, are motivated under our current compensation packages to drive the business to maximize return over the long-term. If the Amended Plan is not approved by our stockholders, in order to remain competitive, we would likely be compelled to alter our compensation program to increase the cash-based component of such program, which we do not believe is as appropriate for our business, and which would decrease the amount of free cash flow we will have available for other purposes.

By the time of the Annual Meeting, over 32 months will have passed since the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan was adopted at the time of our initial public offering (“IPO”). Although a total of 2,089,486 shares of our common stock have been authorized for issuance under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended to date (the “Existing Plan”), multiple factors have led to a faster than expected depletion of our share reserve.

First, our Compensation Committee utilized 183,750 shares at the time of the IPO as performance-based restricted stock units (“PSUs”), which require the Company’s stock price to appreciate significantly within five years after the IPO in order to vest.

Second, the substantial decrease in our stock price since our IPO (by approximately 99% through March 15, 2024) has significantly impacted the number of shares available for issuance under our Existing Plan. In order to retain mission critical employees in light of the materially reduced value of previously granted equity-based incentive awards, the Compensation Committee authorized 187,500 shares for a special RSU grant in December 2021 and 338,307 shares for a special RSU grant in January 2023. Further, the number of shares required in order to continue to provide market competitive annual incentive compensation has drastically increased. Collectively, these retention, performance and annual awards represent the vast majority of all awards granted under the Existing Plan to date.

As of March 15, 2024, approximately 964,500 shares remain available for future grants under the Existing Plan (assuming the target number of shares are paid out in connection with outstanding performance awards). As a result of the small number of shares available, we were unable to grant all of our planned 2024 annual equity-based compensation awards. Consequently, we reduced the planned size of our 2024 annual equity-based award by approximately 40% and postponed the grant to the date of the Annual Meeting, with such grant being contingent on receiving stockholder approval of the Amended Plan. We estimate that the additional shares that will be available for issuance under our Amended Plan, if approved by stockholders, will be sufficient to complete our reduced 2024 annual equity-based compensation awards.

If the Amended Plan is approved by our stockholders, it will become immediately effective as of May 2, 2024. As described below under the heading Awards under the Amended Plan, our Compensation Committee has approved approximately 2,507,900 RSUs to be granted on the date of the Annual Meeting, subject to stockholder approval of the Amended Plan. Assuming such stockholder approval, approximately 731,650 shares will be available for future awards, assuming no grants will be made between the date of this proxy statement and May 2, 2024. This excludes any shares that will become available again under the Amended Plan in connection with awards (or the shares subject to such awards) that are forfeited, terminated or canceled, or expire unexercised.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

If the Amended Plan is approved by our stockholders, awards under the Amended Plan will be determined by the Compensation Committee in its discretion subject to applicable plan limits. Such awards may be granted beginning on the date of stockholder approval of the Amended Plan and continuing through June 27, 2028, or the earlier termination of the Amended Plan. See “-Awards under the Amended Plan” below for information about the 2024 annual equity-based compensation awards we intend to grant under the Amended Plan, if it is approved.

Description of the Amended Plan

The following is a description of the purpose and the main features of the Amended Plan. This description is not complete and is qualified by reference to the full text of the Amended Plan, which is attached as Annex A to the Proxy Statement.

Purpose. The purpose of our Amended Plan is to provide a means through which to attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means whereby our directors, officers, employees, consultants and advisors can acquire and maintain an equity interest in us, or be paid incentive compensation, including incentive compensation measured by reference to the value of our common stock, thereby strengthening their commitment to our welfare and aligning their interests with those of our stockholders.

Administration. Our Amended Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee or such other committee of our board of directors to which it has properly delegated power, or if no such committee or subcommittee exists, our board of directors (hereafter referred to as the Committee). The Committee is authorized to interpret, administer, reconcile any inconsistency in, correct any defect in and/or supply any omission in our Amended Plan and any instrument or agreement relating to, or any award granted under, our Amended Plan; establish, amend, suspend, or waive any rules and regulations and appoint such agents as the Committee deems appropriate for the proper administration of our Amended Plan; adopt sub-plans; and to make any other determination and take any other action that the Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of our Amended Plan. Except to the extent prohibited by applicable law or the applicable rules and regulations of any securities exchange or interdealer quotation system on which our securities are listed or traded, the Committee may allocate all or any portion of its responsibilities and powers to any one or more of its members and may delegate all or any part of its responsibilities and powers to any person or persons selected by it in accordance with the terms of our Amended Plan. Unless otherwise expressly provided in our Amended Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations, and other decisions under or with respect to our Amended Plan or any award or any documents evidencing awards granted pursuant to our Amended Plan are within the sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and are final, conclusive and binding upon all persons or entities, including, without limitation, us, any participant, any holder or beneficiary of any award, and any of our stockholders. The Committee may make grants of awards to eligible persons pursuant to terms and conditions set forth in the applicable award agreement, including subjecting such awards to performance criteria listed in our Amended Plan.

Eligibility. Any director, officer, employee, consultant and advisor of the Company is eligible to receive an award under the Amended Plan. The Committee may select such eligible individuals to participate in the Amended Plan. As of December 31, 2023, approximately 100 employees and directors of the Company were eligible to participate in the Omnibus Incentive Plan, based on established criteria currently utilized by the Committee in determining awards.

Awards Subject to our Amended Plan. Our Amended Plan provides that the total number of shares of common stock that may be issued under our Amended Plan will be 4,364,486 (which includes 525,000 shares originally available for awards under the 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan) (the “Absolute Share Limit”). The Absolute Share Limit will continue to be subject to an automatic increase on the first day of each fiscal year in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of common stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (ii) such number of shares of common stock as determined by the Board. No more than the number of shares of common stock equal to the Absolute Share Limit may be issued in the aggregate pursuant to the exercise of incentive stock options. The maximum number of shares of common stock granted during a single fiscal year to any non-employee director, taken together with any cash fees paid to such non-employee director during the fiscal year, may not exceed $650,000 in total value. Except for substitute awards (as described below), in the event any award expires or is cancelled, forfeited or terminated without issuance to the participant of the full number of shares to which the award related, the unissued shares of common stock may be granted again under our Amended Plan. Awards may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be granted in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity directly or indirectly acquired by us or with which we combine (referred to as “substitute awards”), and such substitute awards will not be counted against the Absolute Share Limit, except that substitute awards intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” will count against the limit on incentive stock options described above. No award may be granted under our Amended Plan after the tenth anniversary of the effective date (as defined therein), but awards granted before then may extend beyond that date.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Options. The Committee may grant non-qualified stock options and incentive stock options, under our Amended Plan, with terms and conditions determined by the Committee that are not inconsistent with our Amended Plan. All stock options granted under our Amended Plan are required to have a per share exercise price that is not less than 100% of the fair market value of our common stock underlying such stock options on the date such stock options are granted (other than in the case of options that are substitute awards). All stock options that are intended to qualify as incentive stock options must be granted pursuant to an award agreement expressly stating that the options are intended to qualify as incentive stock options and will be subject to the terms and conditions that comply with the rules as may be prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. The maximum term for stock options granted under our Amended Plan will be ten years from the initial date of grant, or with respect to any stock options intended to qualify as incentive stock options, such shorter period as prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. However, if a non-qualified stock option would expire at a time when trading of shares of our common stock is prohibited by our insider trading policy (or “blackout period” imposed by us), the term will automatically be extended to the 30th day following the end of such period. The purchase price for the shares as to which a stock option is exercised may be paid to us, to the extent permitted by law, (1) in cash or its equivalent at the time the stock option is exercised; (2) in shares having a fair market value equal to the aggregate exercise price for the shares being purchased and satisfying any requirements that may be imposed by the Committee (so long as such shares have been held by the participant for at least six months or such other period established by the Committee to avoid adverse accounting treatment); or (3) by such other method as the Committee may permit in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, (A) in other property having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the purchase price, (B) if there is a public market for the shares at such time, through the delivery of irrevocable instructions to a broker to sell the shares being acquired upon the exercise of the stock option and to deliver to us the amount of the proceeds of such sale equal to the aggregate exercise price for the shares being purchased or (C) through a “net exercise” procedure effected by withholding the minimum number of shares needed to pay the exercise price. Any fractional shares of common stock will be settled in cash.

Stock Appreciation Rights. The Committee may grant stock appreciation rights under our Amended Plan, with terms and conditions determined by the Committee that are not inconsistent with our Amended Plan. The Committee may award stock appreciation rights in tandem with options or independent of any option. Generally, each stock appreciation right will entitle the participant upon exercise to an amount (in cash, shares or a combination of cash and shares, as determined by the Committee) equal to the product of (1) the excess of (A) the fair market value on the exercise date of one share of common stock, over (B) the strike price per share, times (2) the number of shares of common stock covered by the stock appreciation right. The strike price per share of a stock appreciation right will be determined by the Committee at the time of grant but in no event may such amount be less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the stock appreciation right is granted (other than in the case of stock appreciation rights granted in substitution of previously granted awards).

Restricted Shares and Restricted Stock Units. The Committee may grant restricted shares of our common stock or restricted stock units, representing the right to receive, upon vesting and the expiration of any applicable restricted period, one share of common stock for each restricted stock unit, or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, the cash value thereof (or any combination thereof). As to restricted shares of our common stock, subject to the other provisions of our Amended Plan, the holder will generally have the rights and privileges of a stockholder as to such restricted shares of common stock, including, without limitation, the right to vote such restricted shares of common stock. Participants have no rights or privileges as a stockholder with respect to restricted stock units.

Other Equity-Based Awards and Cash-Based Awards. The Committee may grant other equity-based or cash-based awards under our Amended Plan, with terms and conditions determined by the Committee that are not inconsistent with our Amended Plan.

Effect of Certain Events on the Amended Plan and Awards. In the event of (1) any dividend (other than regular cash dividends) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of common stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares of common stock or other securities, issuance of warrants or other rights to acquire shares of common stock or other securities, or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects the shares of common stock (including a change in control, as defined in our Amended Plan), or (2) unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, including changes in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements, that the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, could result in substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, participants (any event in (1) or (2), an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee will, in respect of any such Adjustment Event, make such proportionate substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems equitable, to any or all of: (A) the Absolute Share Limit, or any other limit applicable under our Amended Plan with respect to the number of awards which may be granted thereunder, (B) the number of shares of common stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) which may be issued in respect of awards or with respect to

TABLE OF CONTENTS

which awards may be granted under our Amended Plan or any sub-plan and (C) the terms of any outstanding award, including, without limitation, (1) the number of shares of common stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) subject to outstanding awards or to which outstanding awards relate, (2) the exercise price or strike price with respect to any award, or (c) any applicable performance measures; it being understood that, in the case of any “equity restructuring,” the Committee will make an equitable or proportionate adjustment to outstanding awards to reflect such equity restructuring. In connection with any change in control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for any one or more of the following: (1) a substitution or assumption of awards, or to the extent the surviving entity does not substitute or assume the awards, the acceleration of vesting of, the exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions on awards and (2) cancellation of any one or more outstanding awards and payment to the holders of such awards that are vested as of such cancellation (including any awards that would vest as a result of the occurrence of such event but for such cancellation) the value of such awards, if any, as determined by the Committee (which value, if applicable, may be based upon the price per share of common stock received or to be received by other holders of our common stock in such event), including, in the case of stock options and stock appreciation rights, a cash payment equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares of common stock subject to the option or stock appreciation right over the aggregate exercise price or strike price thereof.

Nontransferability of Awards. Each award will not be transferable or assignable by a participant other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance will be void and unenforceable against us or any of our subsidiaries. However, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit awards (other than incentive stock options) to be transferred, including transfers to a participant’s family members, any trust established solely for the benefit of a participant or such participant’s family members, any partnership or limited liability company of which a participant, or such participant and such participant’s family members, are the sole member(s), and a beneficiary to whom donations are eligible to be treated as “charitable contributions” for tax purposes.

Amendment and Termination. Our board of directors or the Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate our Amended Plan or any portion thereof at any time; but no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination may be made without stockholder approval if (1) such approval is necessary to comply with any regulatory requirement applicable to our Amended Plan or for changes in GAAP to new accounting standards; (2) it would materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under our Amended Plan (except for adjustments in connection with certain corporate events); or (3) it would materially modify the requirements for participation in our Amended Plan; and any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any participant or any holder or beneficiary of any award will not to that extent be effective without such individual’s consent. The Committee may, to the extent consistent with the terms of any applicable award agreement, waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any award granted or the associated award agreement, prospectively or retroactively (including after a participant’s termination). However, except as otherwise permitted in our Amended Plan, any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any participant with respect to such award will not to that extent be effective without such individual’s consent. In addition, without stockholder approval, except as otherwise permitted in our Amended Plan, (1) no amendment or modification may reduce the exercise price of any option or the strike price of any stock appreciation right; (2) the Committee may not cancel any outstanding option or stock appreciation right and replace it with a new option or stock appreciation right (with a lower exercise price or strike price, as the case may be) or other award or cash payment that is greater than the value of the cancelled option or stock appreciation right; and (3) the Committee may not take any other action which is considered a “repricing” for purposes of the stockholder approval rules of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which our securities are listed or quoted.

Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. The Committee in its sole discretion may provide part of an award with dividends or dividend equivalents, on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion. Unless otherwise provided in the award agreement, any dividend payable in respect of any share of restricted stock that remains subject to vesting conditions at the time of payment of such dividend will be retained by the Company and remain subject to the same vesting conditions as the share of restricted stock to which the dividend relates.

Clawback/Repayment. All awards are subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment to the extent necessary to comply with (1) any clawback, forfeiture or other similar policy adopted by our board of directors or the Committee and as in effect from time to time and (2) applicable law. To the extent that a participant receives any amount in excess of the amount that the participant should otherwise have received under the terms of the award for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), the participant will be required to repay any such excess amount to the Company.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences. The following is a summary of the principal U.S. federal income tax consequences generally applicable to awards made under the Amended Plan. The summary does not contain a complete

TABLE OF CONTENTS

analysis of all the potential tax consequences relating to awards granted under the Amended Plan, including state, local or foreign tax consequences.

Nonqualified Stock Options. A participant will not be deemed to have received taxable income upon the grant of a nonqualified stock option with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. Upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option, a participant generally will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the common stock received on the date of exercise over the option price. The basis of shares received upon the exercise of a nonqualified stock option will be the option exercise price paid plus the amount recognized by the participant as taxable income attributable to such shares as a result of the exercise. Gain or loss recognized by the participant on a subsequent disposition of any such shares will be capital gain or loss if such shares constitute a capital asset in the hands of the participant. A participant’s holding period will commence on the date of exercise.

Incentive Stock Options. Participants will not be deemed to recognize taxable income upon the grant or exercise of an incentive stock option with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. If a participant makes no disqualifying disposition of the common stock received upon exercise within the one year period beginning after the transfer of such common stock to the participant nor within two years from the date of grant of the incentive stock option, and if the participant at all times from the date of the grant of the incentive stock option to a date three months before the date of exercise has been an employee of ours, any gain recognized on the disposition of the common stock acquired upon exercise will be long-term capital gain. The difference between the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise and the exercise price will, however, be an item of tax preference, and may subject a participant to the alternative minimum tax. If the participant makes a disqualifying disposition of the common stock before the expiration of the one or two year holding periods described above, the participant will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income at the time of such disposition to the extent that the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise, or, if less, the amount realized on such disposition, exceeds the exercise price. To the extent that the amount realized on such disposition exceeds the fair market value of the common stock at the time of exercise, such excess will be taxed as capital gain if the common stock is otherwise a capital asset in the hands of the participant. To the extent the participant recognizes ordinary income on a disqualifying disposition of the common stock, we may be entitled to a deduction for federal income tax purposes in an amount equal to the ordinary income recognized by the participant.

Stock Appreciation Rights. A participant will not be deemed to have received taxable income upon the grant or vesting of a SAR with an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the underlying stock on the date of the grant. Upon the exercise of a SAR, a participant generally will be deemed to have received income, taxable for federal income tax purposes at ordinary income rates, equal to the fair market value at the time of exercise of any common stock received plus the amount of any cash received. The basis of shares received upon the exercise of a SAR will equal the fair market value of the shares at the time of exercise. Gain or loss recognized by the participant on a subsequent disposition of any such shares will be capital gain or loss if such shares constitute a capital asset in the hands of the participant.

Restricted Stock. The federal income tax consequences of the issuance of restricted stock will depend upon whether the participant elects to be taxed at the time of grant of the restricted stock under Section 83(b) of the Code. If no election is made, the participant will not be deemed to have received taxable income upon the grant of restricted stock, but rather recognition of income will be postponed until such time as the restrictions on the shares of restricted stock lapse. At that time, the participant will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the restricted stock when the restrictions lapse. If a Section 83(b) election is made, the participant will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income at the time of the grant of the restricted stock equal to the fair market value of the shares of restricted stock at that time determined without regard to any of the restrictions on the shares, and the participant will not recognize ordinary income on the lapse of the restrictions. The basis of any shares received will equal the amount recognized by the participant as taxable income attributable to such shares as a result of the lapse of restrictions on the restricted stock or as a result of a Section 83(b) election. Gain or loss recognized by the participant on a subsequent disposition of any such shares will be capital gain or loss if such shares constitute a capital asset in the hands of the participant. For purposes of determining the holding period of any such shares, there will be included only the period beginning at the time the restrictions lapse or, if a Section 83(b) election is made, at the time of grant.

Restricted Stock Units. A participant will not be deemed to have received taxable income upon the grant of restricted stock units. The participant will be deemed to have received taxable ordinary income at such time as shares are distributed to the participant. The basis of the shares of common stock received will equal the amount of taxable ordinary income recognized by the participant upon receipt of such shares. Gain or loss recognized by the participant on a subsequent disposition of any such shares will be capital gain or loss if such shares constitute a capital asset in the hands of the participant. A participant’s holding period will commence on the date the shares are distributed to the participant.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Income Tax Deduction. Subject to the usual rules concerning reasonable compensation, including our obligation to withhold or otherwise collect certain income and payroll taxes, we generally will be entitled to a corresponding income tax deduction at the time a participant recognizes ordinary income from awards made under the Amended Plan. However, Section 162(m) of the Code prohibits publicly held corporations from deducting more than $1 million per year in compensation paid to certain named executive officers. Therefore, compensation paid to a covered executive in any given year in excess of $1 million will not be deductible.

Delivery of Shares for Tax Obligation. The Compensation Committee may permit participants receiving or exercising awards, subject to the discretion of the Compensation Committee and upon such terms and conditions as it may impose, to deliver shares of our common stock (either shares received upon the receipt or exercise of the award or shares previously owned by the participant) to us to satisfy federal, state or local tax obligations.

Code Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. The Compensation Committee intends to administer and interpret the Plan and all award agreements in a manner designed to satisfy the requirements of Code Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (“Section 409A”) and to avoid any adverse tax results thereunder to a holder of an award. Section 409A provides certain requirements for non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements with respect to an individual’s distribution elections and permissible distribution events. If an award is subject to and fails to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A, the recipient of that award may recognize ordinary income on the amounts deferred under the award, to the extent vested, which may be prior to when the compensation is actually or constructively received. Moreover, if an award that is subject to Section 409A fails to comply with Section 409A’s provisions, Section 409A imposes an additional 20% tax on compensation recognized as ordinary income, as well as interest on such deferred compensation.

Special Rules for Executive Officers Subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Special rules may apply to individuals subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. In particular, unless a special election is made pursuant to 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, shares received through the exercise or settlement of an award may be treated as restricted as to transferability and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture for a period of up to six months after the date of exercise. Accordingly, the amount of any ordinary income recognized and the amount of our income tax deduction will be determined as of the end of that period.

Awards under the Amended Plan

In order to retain key employees in light of the materially reduced value of previously granted equity-based incentive awards, in October 2023 the Compensation Committee approved a special RSU grant to our currently employed Named Executive Officers and other eligible employees, subject to approval of the Amended Plan. These awards, plus the 2024 annual equity-based compensation awards for our Named Executive Officers that remained employed with us as of December 31, 2023, as well as the equity-based awards to other eligible employees, all of which are set forth below, have all been approved by the Compensation Committee, subject to approval of the Amended Plan. Other than these awards, the number and types of awards that will be granted under the Amended Plan in the future are not determinable, as the Compensation Committee will make these determinations in its sole discretion.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board currently consists of 12 members. However, in March 2024, after considering the evolution of the Company’s business model, its updated strategy, and the number of directors on the Board, our Board determined to reduce the size of our Board to 10 members, effective as of the date of the Annual Meeting.

Presented below is information with respect to our 10 director nominees to be elected as directors at this year's Annual Meeting. The information presented below for each director includes the specific experience, qualifications, attributes and skills that led us to the conclusion that such director should serve on the Board.

Corporate Governance

Our business and affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Board currently consists of 12 directors. However, in March 2024, after considering the evolution of the Company’s business model, its updated strategy, and the number of directors on the Board, our Board determined to reduce the size of the Board to 10 members, effective as of the date of the Annual Meeting. The Board and its committees meet throughout the year on a set schedule and hold special meetings and act by written resolution from time to time, as appropriate. For the year ended December 31, 2023, our Board held 12 meetings. Our Audit Committee, Compensation and Human Capital Committee (“Compensation Committee”), and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committees held four, four, and one meeting(s), respectively, during 2023. In 2023, each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board during such director’s tenure and substantially all of the total number of meetings held by any of the committees of the Board on which the director served. Members of our Board are encouraged to attend our annual meetings of stockholders. Seven of our then-serving directors attended our 2023 annual meeting of stockholders.

Board Leadership Structure

Our Board is led by Mr. Sheehy, the Chairman of the Board. Mr. Kadre, our Lead Director, provides effective independent oversight of management. Our Board selects its Chairperson and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer in the manner it considers in the best interests of the Company, and thus has no policy with respect to the separation of the offices of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer. The Board believes that this issue should be considered periodically as part of the succession planning process, however, and that it is in the best interests of our company to make a determination regarding this issue each time it appoints a new Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, the Board may determine that it is appropriate in the future to combine the roles of Chairperson and Chief Executive Officer.

When the Chairperson of the Board is not independent, our Board elects a Lead Director. The Lead Director helps coordinate the efforts of the independent and non-management directors in the interest of ensuring that objective judgment is brought to bear on sensitive issues involving the management of the Company and, in particular, the performance of senior management. The Lead Director presides at Board meetings at which the Chairperson is not present and, among other things, collaborates with our Chief Executive Officer on Board matters, and acts as a liaison between the independent directors, on one hand, and stockholders or the Chairperson, on the other.

Role of Board of Directors in Risk Oversight

The Board has extensive involvement in the oversight of risk management related to us and our business and accomplishes this oversight through the regular reporting by the Audit Committee. Through its regular meetings with management, including the finance, legal and internal audit functions, the Audit Committee reviews and discusses all significant areas of our business and summarizes for the Board all areas of risk and the appropriate mitigating factors.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The standing committees of our Board consist of an Audit Committee, a Compensation and Human Capital Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers regularly report to the non-executive directors and the Audit, the Compensation, and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee to ensure effective and efficient oversight of our activities and to assist in proper risk management and the ongoing evaluation of management controls. The internal audit function reports functionally and administratively to our Chief Financial Officer and directly to the Audit Committee. We believe that the leadership structure of our Board provides appropriate risk oversight of our activities.

Audit Committee

TABLE OF CONTENTS

The members of our Audit Committee are Kedrick Adkins, who serves as the Chair, Manuel Kadre and Linda Gooden, each of whom qualifies as an independent director under the NYSE corporate governance standards and independence requirements of Rule 10A-3 of the Exchange Act.

Our Board has adopted a written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which is available on our website investors.neuehealth.com.

Director Independence

We define an “independent” director in accordance with Section 303A.02 of the NYSE’s Listed Company Manual. The NYSE independence definition includes a series of objective tests, including that the director is not an employee of the Company and has not engaged in various types of business dealings with the Company. Because it is not possible to anticipate or explicitly provide for all potential conflicts of interest that may affect independence, the Board is also

TABLE OF CONTENTS

responsible for determining affirmatively, as to each independent director, that no material relationships exist which, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, the Board will broadly consider all relevant facts and circumstances, including information provided by the directors and the Company with regard to each director’s business and personal activities as they may relate to the Company and the Company’s management. Ownership of a significant amount of our stock, by itself, does not constitute a material relationship.

The Board has affirmatively determined that each of our directors, other than G. Mike Mikan and Robert J. Sheehy, qualifies as independent in accordance with the NYSE rules.

Background and Experience of Directors; Board Diversity

In accordance with our Corporate Governance Guidelines, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing the qualifications of potential director candidates and recommending for the Board’s selection those candidates to be nominated for election to the Board, subject to any obligations and procedures governing the nomination of directors to the Board that may be set forth in any stockholders agreement or investor rights agreement to which the Company is party.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers (a) minimum individual qualifications, including strength of character, mature judgment, industry knowledge or experience and an ability to work collegially with the other members of the Board and (b) all other factors it considers appropriate, which may include age, diversity of background, existing commitments to other businesses, service on other boards of directors or similar governing bodies of public or private companies or committees thereof, potential conflicts of interest with other pursuits, legal considerations such as antitrust issues, corporate governance background, financial and accounting background, executive compensation background and the size, composition and combined expertise of the existing Board.

The Board monitors the mix of specific experience, qualifications and skills of its directors in order to assure that the Board, as a whole, has the necessary tools to perform its oversight function effectively in light of the Company’s business and structure.

Stockholder Communications Policy

Stockholders and other interested parties may communicate directly and confidentially with the Board or the independent directors by sending a letter addressed to the intended recipients, c/o Corporate Secretary, 9250 NW 36th St, Suite 420, Doral, Florida 33178. The secretary will review such communications and, if appropriate, forward them only to the intended recipients. Communications that do not relate to the responsibilities of the intended recipients as directors of NeueHealth (such as communications that are commercial or frivolous in nature) will not be forwarded. In addition, communications that appear to be unduly hostile, intimidating, threatening, illegal or similarly inappropriate will not be forwarded.

Stockholder Recommendations of Director Candidates

Stockholders who would like to recommend a director candidate for consideration by our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee must send notice to NeueHealth, Inc., Attn: Corporate Secretary, 9250 NW 36th St, Suite 420, Doral, Florida 33178, by registered, certified or express mail, and provide us with a brief biographical sketch of the recommended candidate, a document indicating the recommended candidate’s willingness to serve if elected, and evidence of the stock ownership of the person recommending such candidate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee or its chair will then consider the recommended director candidate in accordance with the same criteria applied to other director candidates, including those described in our corporate governance guidelines and the charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.

Hedging Transactions

Pursuant to our Insider Trading Policy, we prohibit our employees, directors and officers from engaging in any transactions (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds) that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of the Company’s equity securities. Additionally, directors, officers and other employees are prohibited from holding our securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging our securities as collateral for a loan without first obtaining pre-clearance from our General Counsel or his or her designee. None of our executive officers or directors pledged any of our securities during 2023.

Code of Conduct

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We have adopted a Code of Conduct applicable to all employees, executive officers and directors that addresses legal and ethical issues that may be encountered in carrying out their duties and responsibilities, including the requirement to report any conduct they believe to be a violation of the Code of Conduct. The Code of Conduct is available on our website, investors.neuehealth.com. For information about how to obtain the Code of Conduct, see Part I, Item 1, “Business.” If our Board were to amend our Code of Conduct or waive any provision of our Code of Conduct for a director or executive officer of the Company, we intend to satisfy our disclosure obligations with respect to any such waiver or amendment by posting such information on our website set forth above.

Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports

Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and persons who beneficially own more than 10% of our common stock to file initial reports of ownership and reports of changes in ownership with the SEC. Such executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners are required by the regulations of the SEC to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file.

Based solely upon a review of copies of reports on Forms 3 and 4 and amendments thereto filed electronically with the SEC during, and reports on Form 5 and amendments thereto filed electronically with the SEC with respect to, the year ended December 31, 2023, and based further upon written representations received by us with respect to the need to file reports on Form 5, no persons filed late reports required by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act during the year ended December 31, 2023 other than a late Form 3 for Jay Matushak.

NARRATIVE DISCLOSURE TO SUMMARY COMPENSATION TABLE

The following is a discussion of material factors necessary to obtain an understanding of information disclosed under “-2023 Summary Compensation Table”.

Elements of 2023 Compensation Program

We provide our executive officers with a mix of pay that reflects our belief that executive compensation should be tied to an appropriate balance of both short and long-term performance. The primary elements of our executive compensation program are base salary, annual cash incentive, equity-based compensation and certain employee benefits and perquisites.

Base Salary

Base salaries compensate our Named Executive Officers for fulfilling the requirements of their respective positions and are intended to reflect the scope of their responsibilities, performance, skills and experience as well as competitive market practices. The base salaries of our Named Executive Officers are reviewed annually by our Compensation Committee.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

For 2023, our Board approved a promotional base salary of $560,000 for Mr. Matushak and merit-based increases to $666,250 for Mr. Orozco and $750,000 for Ms. Smith. Our Compensation Committee reviewed market compensation data from the national surveys and made no base salary increase in 2023 to Mr. Mikan.

2023 Discretionary Annual Cash Incentive Plan (“AIP”)

An overall AIP pool is determined by the Compensation Committee based on (i) each eligible employee’s annual earnings, multiplied by (ii) the employee’s target individual incentive award amount, multiplied by (iii) the company performance factor (based on achievement of our operating plan). A participant’s incentive award takes into consideration individual, team and Company performance results. At the end of each fiscal year, our Compensation Committee determines, in its discretion, the individual incentive award amount for our Chief Executive Officer and our other Named Executive Officers. Individual incentive awards are paid as cash awards on a date that is after the end of the fiscal year in which the individual incentive award is granted. For 2023, the Compensation Committee evaluated the Company’s overall execution against performance metrics and approved a performance factor of 100% of target. Awards were paid in January 2024. Ms. Smith

left the company on May 12, 2023 and did not receive an award under the AIP for 2023.

Long-Term Equity Incentive Compensation

We use equity awards in the form of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options to deliver long-term incentive compensation opportunities to our executive officers, including the Named Executive Officers, and to address special situations as they may arise from time to time. The Compensation Committee determines the amount of annual equity awards for our executive officers after taking into consideration the recommendations of our Chief Executive Officer (except with respect to his own long-term incentive compensation), the external market benchmarks, outstanding equity holdings of each executive officer, criticality of position and individual performance (both historical and expected future performance.

On February 24, 2023 the Compensation Committee authorized annual equity grants to our Named Executive Officers. Grants were 100% RSU’s with a three year annual vesting, subject to approval by our stockholders of our Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan, which was obtained at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ms. Smith left the Company on May 12, 2023 and accordingly forfeited her RSU award for 2023.

Mikan Employment Agreement

Pursuant to Mr. Mikan’s amended and restated employment agreement, effective as of September 23, 2021 (the “Mikan Employment Agreement”), Mr. Mikan serves as our President, Chief Executive Officer and Vice Chair of our Board. Mr. Mikan is entitled to a base salary of $1,300,000, which may be increased at the discretion of the Board. In addition, he is eligible to participate in the AIP, pursuant to which he has a target individual incentive opportunity equal to 130% of his annual base salary. The Mikan Employment Agreement also provides that Mr. Mikan is entitled to reimbursement from the Company up to $100,000 annually for the costs of a life insurance policy (plus the amount of any incremental tax liabilities resulting from such reimbursement).

Pursuant to the Mikan Employment Agreement, Mr. Mikan is also entitled the severance and change of control benefits described below under “-Potential Payments Upon Termination or Change in Control.”

Personal Aircraft Use

In 2023, Mr. Mikan was permitted a limited amount of personal use of the Company’s leased aircraft upon approval by the Chair of the Compensation Committee. We do not reimburse any taxes for imputed income associated with any such personal travel. All future practices with respect to perquisites or other personal benefits will be approved and subject to periodic review by our Compensation Committee.

Orozco Employment Agreement

Pursuant to Mr. Orozco’s employment agreement, effective as of August 9, 2021 (the “Orozco Employment Agreement”), Mr. Orozco agreed to serve as Chief Executive Officer of Centrum Medical Holdings, LLC, one of our subsidiary businesses.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

the terms of Ms. Smith’s separation from the Company. As part of the Consulting Agreement, Ms. Smith remained employed by the Company until May 12, 2023.

and other matters.

The following table provides information with regard to each outstanding equity award held by the Named Executive Officers on December 31, 2023.

These benefits are in addition to benefits available generally to salaried employees. Due to the number of factors that affect the nature and amount of any benefits provided upon the events discussed below, any actual amounts paid or distributed may be different from those estimated below. Factors that could affect these amounts include the timing during the year of any such event and our valuation at that time. There can be no assurance that a qualifying termination or change in control would produce the same or similar results as those described below if any assumption used to prepare this information is not correct in fact.

2021 Severance Plan

The 2021 Severance Plan provides severance benefits to all the Named Executive Officers except Mr. Mikan and Mr. Orozco, who are entitled to severance benefits pursuant to their respective employment agreements, described below. The 2021 Severance Plan is administered by our Chief People Officer (or such other person or persons as determined by our Board). Each Named Executive Officer, other than Mr. Mikan and Mr. Orozco, is eligible to severance benefits if such executive is terminated for reasons determined by the administrator to be an “involuntary termination” of employment by the Company for reasons beyond the executive’s control or by the executive for Good Reason, defined below.

For purposes of the 2021 Severance Plan, an executive’s termination of employment is not an involuntary termination if such termination is:

•a termination by the Company or affiliate for Cause, defined below;

•a voluntary termination by a participant other than for Good Reason;

•a termination by the participant prior to the date specified by the Company for a participant’s involuntary termination of the participant’s active employment with the Company; or

•a termination on account of the participant’s death or disability.

Severance pay under the 2021 Severance Plan will be paid to our eligible executives for 52 or 78 weeks (the “Severance Period”). Severance pay will generally be paid at regular payroll intervals following the participant’s last day worked. Mr. Matushak is entitled to 78 weeks of base pay plus an amount equal to 1.5 times his target individual incentive award, paid over the Severance Period.

In addition, the 2021 Severance Plan provides that our eligible executives are entitled to elect and pay for 12 or 18 months of continued coverage under the Company’s group medical, dental and/or vision plans pursuant to COBRA, in accordance with ordinary plan practices. If an executive was enrolled in the Company’s group medical, dental and/or vision plans at the time of the executive’s termination of employment and timely elects continuation coverage under COBRA, the Company will, on a monthly basis, directly pay for the amount of the COBRA coverage cost for medical plan coverage that is in excess of the cost of coverage payable by an active employee of the Company for the “benefit subsidy period.” The benefit subsidy period begins immediately following the month active employee coverage terminates on account of the executive’s termination of employment.

Eligible executives will also be paid a prorated portion of the individual incentive award, if any, payable in accordance with the terms of the applicable Company AIP for the calendar year in which the executive’s termination of employment occurs (other than any requirement that the executive remain employed through the end of the calendar year or at the time of payment), with such proration based on the full calendar months of the executive’s employment during such year. The prorated individual incentive award will be based on Company performance impacting individual incentive award eligible executives and will be paid at the time the Company pays the individual incentive award to other employees, but not later than March 15th of calendar year following the end of the calendar year in which the executive’s employment terminated.

In addition, the 2021 Severance Plan provides that our eligible eligible executives are entitled to continued vesting of any unvested outstanding equity awards subject to time-based vesting during the Severance Period.

In the event of a termination of employment within 12 months following the occurrence of a Change in Control, defined below, the following provisions will apply to eligible executives:

•The severance pay will be paid in a single lump sum as soon as practicable, but not later than 60 days, following the executive’s termination of employment.

•The individual incentive award will be equal to 100% of the executive’s target individual incentive award amount, and will be paid in a lump sum within 60 days following the executive’s termination of employment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

•Any unvested outstanding equity award subject to time-based vesting will vest in full at the time of the executive’s termination of employment.

In order to be entitled to any severance benefits under the 2021 Severance Plan, a participant must sign a release of claims and restrictive covenant agreement, which will include non-competition, non-solicitation and non-disparagement provisions.

Under the 2021 Severance Plan, the Company may recover, or “claw back,” from a participant any amounts previously paid pursuant to the 2021 Severance Plan if, following such payment, the administrator becomes aware of circumstances existing on the date of payment that could reasonably have been grounds for the participant’s termination of employment for Cause or if the participant violates the terms of the restrictive covenant agreement and/or release of claims.

Pursuant to the 2021 Severance Plan:

•“Cause” means that in the Company’s exclusive judgment, (i) conduct or statements that violate the Company’s employee and member relations standards, including those which require that Company employees treat each other with dignity and respect, (ii) violation of the Company’s standards, policies, or individual directives, regarding the prohibition of unlawful discrimination, harassment or retaliation, (iii) unsatisfactory attendance, conduct, or performance, (iv) violation of the Company’s standards of conduct, (v) violation of any Company or regulatory standard regarding protection of confidential information, and trade secrets, (vi) refusal to satisfactorily perform the duties, responsibilities and obligations of an employee’s position, (vii) dishonesty or other breach of an employee’s duty of loyalty affecting the Company or any customer, vendor or other Company employee, (viii) use of alcohol or prohibited substances in a manner that adversely affects the employee’s performance of the employee’s duties, responsibilities, and obligations as a Company employee, (ix) the employee’s conviction of any crime which has a nexus with the employee’s position, (x) commission of any other willful or intentional act the Company believes may injure the reputation, business or business relationships of the Company and/or the employee, (xi) the existence of any court order or settlement agreement prohibiting the employee’s continued employment with the Company, (xii) insubordination, (xiii) violation of any statutory or regulatory standard applicable to the Company, or violation of any Company policy or procedure, which adversely affects the Company’s legal rights.

•“Good Reason” means, without the express written consent of the participant:

A.the assignment to the participant of any duties that results in a material diminution in such participant’s position, authority or responsibilities or any other substantial adverse change in such position, authority or responsibilities, that results in a reduction of the participant’s grade level, excluding an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company as set forth below;

B.the material diminution in the participant’s total compensation (including Base Salary and incentive pay), other than (i) an insubstantial and inadvertent failure remedied by the Company as set forth below, or (ii) a reduction in compensation which is applied to all similarly situated employees of the Company in the same dollar amount or percentage; or

C.the Company’s requiring the participant to be based or to perform services at any office or location that is in excess of 50 miles from the principal location of the participant’s work, except for travel reasonably required in the performance of the participant’s responsibilities.

Before a termination by the participant will constitute termination for Good Reason, (i) the participant must give the Company written notice of the termination within sixty (60) calendar days of the initial occurrence of the event that constitutes Good Reason, (ii) the Company is provided an opportunity to remedy the event or events constituting Good Reason within thirty (30) days after receipt of the notice from the participant, (iii) the Company fails to cure the event or events constituting Good Reason, and (iv) the participant terminates employment within sixty (60) days of the end of the Company’s cure period.

2016 Plan and 2021 Plan

The 2016 Equity Plan provides that upon a participant’s termination of service, the Board may, in its sole discretion (which may be exercised at any time on or after the date of grant, including following such termination) cause options (or any part thereof) then held by such participant to terminate, to vest and become exercisable, or to continue to vest and become exercisable or to remain exercisable following such termination of service, and restricted stock awards, restricted stock units or other share-based awards then held by such participant to terminate, vest or become free of restrictions and

TABLE OF CONTENTS

conditions to payment, as the case may be, following such termination of service, in each case in the manner determined by the Board; however (a) no Option may remain exercisable beyond its expiration date and (b) any such action adversely affecting any outstanding incentive award may not be effective without the consent of the affected participant.

In connection with a change in control, unless provision is made in connection with the change in control in the sole discretion of the parties to the change in control for the assumption or continuation by the successor entity of incentive awards theretofore granted, all outstanding incentive awards granted under this 2016 Equity Plan, whether or not exercisable or vested, as the case may be, will be canceled and terminated and that in connection with such cancellation and termination the holder of any vested incentive award will receive for each share of common stock subject to such incentive award a cash payment (or the delivery of shares of stock, other securities or a combination of cash, stock and securities with a fair market value (as determined by the Board in good faith) equivalent to such cash payment) equal to the difference, if any, between the consideration received by stockholders of the Company in respect of a share of common stock in connection with such change in control and the purchase price per share, if any, under the incentive award, multiplied by the number of shares of common stock subject to such incentive award that were vested at the time of cancellation (or in which such incentive award is denominated); however, if such product is zero ($0) or less or to the extent that the incentive award is not then vested or exercisable, the incentive award may be canceled and terminated without payment therefor. If any portion of the consideration pursuant to a change in control may be received by holders of shares of common stock on a contingent or delayed basis, the Board may, in its sole discretion, determine the fair market value per share of such consideration as of the time of the change in control on the basis of the Board’ good faith estimate of the present value of the probable future payment of such consideration. The 2016 Equity Plan further provides that no incentive award may include the acceleration of the vesting or exercisability of such incentive award in connection with a change in control, unless such acceleration provision is approved by the Board.

In connection with any change in control under the 2021 Equity Plan, the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for any one or more of the following: (i) a substitution or assumption of awards, or to the extent the surviving entity does not substitute or assume the awards, full acceleration of vesting of, exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions on, as applicable, any awards, provided that (unless the applicable award agreement provides for different treatment upon a change in control) with respect to any performance-vested awards, any such acceleration will be based on (A) the target level of performance if the applicable performance period has not ended prior to the date of such change in control and (B) the actual level of performance attained during the performance period of the applicable performance period has ended prior to the date of such change in control; and (ii) cancellation of any one or more outstanding awards and payment to the holders of such awards that are vested as of such cancellation (including any awards that would vest as a result of the occurrence of such event but for such cancellation) the value of such awards, if any, as determined by the Compensation Committee (which value, if applicable, may be based upon the price per share of common stock received or to be received by other holders of our common stock in such event), including, in the case of options and stock appreciation rights, a cash payment equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of the shares of common stock subject to the option or stock appreciation right over the aggregate exercise price or strike price thereof.

Potential Payments to Mr. Mikan

Mr. Mikan is not entitled to any cash severance payments upon termination due to death, disability, or for Cause (as defined in the Mikan Employment Agreement).

Pursuant to the Mikan Employment Agreement, if the Company terminates Mr. Mikan’s employment without Cause or Mr. Mikan voluntarily terminates his employment for Good Reason, then subject to his continued material compliance with the Mikan Employment Agreement and his timely execution, without revocation, of an effective release of claims in favor of the Company and its affiliates, the Company will pay him an amount equal to (x) two times the sum of his then applicable annual base salary, (y) two times the then applicable target annual individual incentive award payment and (z) the full year target annual individual incentive award for the year in which he was terminated, less all applicable withholdings and deductions. The payment of the severance amount will be in substantially equal installments in accordance with the Company’s payroll practice over 24 months commencing within 60 days after the termination date.

In addition, Mr. Mikan will receive health and welfare benefits continuation for 24 months following the termination date. Finally, the number of unvested equity awards granted to him under the Company’s equity incentive plans as of the termination date which would have vested over the 24 month period commencing on the termination date (assuming continued employment throughout such period) in accordance with the terms of the applicable grant agreements will automatically vest in full.

The Mikan Employment Agreement also provides that in the event that the Mr. Mikan’s employment is terminated involuntarily or Mr. Mikan voluntarily terminates his employment for Good Reason within 24 months of a Change of Control, Mr. Mikan shall receive a lump sum equal to (x) two times the sum of his then applicable annual base salary, (y) two times the then applicable target annual individual incentive award payment and (z) the full year target annual

individual incentive award for the year in which he was terminated, less all applicable withholdings and deductions. In addition, Mr. Mikan will receive full acceleration of vesting on all outstanding equity awards, provided that the Special IPO PSU Grant will only be accelerated to the extent then vested.

The Mikan Employment Agreement further provides that in the event of Mr. Mikan’s death, a number of unvested equity awards granted to him under the Company’s equity incentive plans will become vested as follows: (i) if, at the time of his death, fewer than one half of the equity awards have vested, then such number of shares will become vested in full automatically such that one half of the equity awards will be vested; and (ii) if, at the time of his death, one half or more of the equity awards have vested, then the number of unvested equity awards as of the date of his death which would have vested over the twelve month period commencing on the date of his death (assuming continued employment throughout such period) in accordance with the terms of the applicable grant agreements will automatically vest in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the executive will not be deemed to have been terminated for Cause unless and until there has been delivered to executive a written statement, executed by the Chairman of our Board (after reasonable notice to the executive and an opportunity for the executive to be heard by the Board), stating that in the good faith opinion of the Chairman of our Board the executive was guilty of conduct constituting “Cause” as set forth above and specifying the particulars thereof in reasonable detail.

Under the Mikan Employment Agreement, “Good Reason” means the executive’s voluntary termination of employment with the Company or the acquiror following the occurrence of any of the following without the executive’s written consent: (i) a material reduction or change in job duties, responsibilities or requirements inconsistent with the executive’s position, provided that a mere change in title following a sale of the Company will not constitute For Good Reason, so long as the executive is assigned to a position that is substantially equivalent to the position held prior to the Change of Control terms of job duties, responsibilities and requirements; (ii) a material reduction in the executive’s compensation; (iii) the executive’s refusal to relocate the principal place for performance of his duties to a location more than 50 miles from the location at which he performed his duties at the time of the sale of the Company.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

This Compensation Discussion and Analysis provides a brief overview of our executive compensation philosophy, the overall objectives of our executive compensation program, and each material element of compensation for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, which we also refer to as 2023.

We have provided this information for each person who served as our principal executive officer and our two most highly compensated executive officers employed in 2023 (other than our principal executive officer), all of whom we refer to collectively as our Named Executive Officers. We have also included this information for one former executive officer who would have been included based on their compensation for 2023 if they had continued to serve as an executive officer at the end of the fiscal year.

Our Named Executive Officers for 2023 were:

•G. Mike Mikan, President and Chief Executive Officer

•Jay Matushak, Chief Financial Officer

•Tomas Orozco, Executive Vice President, Consumer Care

•Cathy Smith, Former Chief Financial and Administrative Officer

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

As a healthcare company, we operate in a highly competitive business environment, which is characterized by rapidly changing market requirements and the emergence of new market entrants. To succeed in this environment, we must continually develop and refine new and existing products and services and demonstrate an ability to quickly identify and capitalize on new business opportunities. We recognize that our success in this environment is in large part dependent on our ability to attract and retain talented employees. Therefore, we maintain, and modify as necessary, an executive compensation and benefits program designed to attract, retain, and incentivize a highly talented, deeply qualified, and committed team of executive officers to share our vision and desire to work toward these goals.

We endeavor to create and maintain compensation programs that reward performance and serve to align the interests of our executive officers and stockholders. Pursuant to our compensation philosophy, we seek to attract, retain and engage the best talent by:


•			Fostering a pay-for-performance culture, where compensation is directly linked to company and individual goal achievement;


•			Providing “Total Rewards” (which includes compensation, benefits, work-life balance, recognition, and perquisites) that are competitive with the external market and reward performance that supports our mission, vision and values (Be Brave. Be Brilliant. Be Accountable. Be Inclusive. Be Collaborative.);


•			Awarding equity compensation that supports sustained performance and growth and aligns with the long-term interests of our stockholders; and


•			Ensuring equal pay for work of equal value, so that differences in pay are based on factors such as job, experience, education, performance and location.

Our Compensation Committee continues to be guided by this philosophy. We intend to continue to evaluate our philosophy and objectives and compensation programs as circumstances require, and, at a minimum, our Compensation Committee will review our executive compensation philosophy and objectives annually.

Elements of 2023 Compensation Program

We provide our executive officers with a mix of pay that reflects our belief that executive compensation should be tied to an appropriate balance of both short- and long-term performance. The primary elements of our executive compensation program are base salary, annual cash incentive, equity-based compensation and certain employee benefits and perquisites, each of which elements are described in additional detail in the Executive Compensation section for this Proxy Statement..

Compensation Policies and Practices

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Ownership Guidelines

Our Stock Ownership Guidelines (the “Guidelines”) are designed to align our directors' and executives' interests with our stockholders' interests and to encourage directors and executives to make decisions that will be in our long-term best interests—through all industry cycles and market conditions. The Guidelines require non-employee directors and executive officers to achieve and maintain ownership of our shares equal to five times base salary for the CEO, three times base salary for all other executive leadership team members and three times the annual cash retainer for non-employee directors. The ownership requirement is based on the participant's base salary or annual retainer (as applicable) and the average daily closing share price for the previous 12 months through October 31 of each calendar year.

During any year in which a participant is not in compliance with the ownership requirement, the Compensation Committee may require such participant to retain at least 50% of net shares delivered through our equity incentive plans (“net shares” means the shares remaining after deducting shares for the payment of taxes and, in the case of stock options, after deducting shares for payment of the exercise price of stock options).

Clawback Policy

Pursuant to our Clawback Policy for executive officers, the Compensation Committee requires the repayment of certain cash and equity incentive compensation paid to any current or former executive officer in the event of a restatement of our financial results if such compensation received by such officer exceeded the amount that such officer would have received based on the restated financial results.

Policy on Hedging and Prohibited Transactions

Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits employees, non-employee directors and related persons from engaging in any transactions (including prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars and exchange funds) that are designed to hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of the Company’s equity securities. Additionally, directors, officers and other employees are prohibited from holding our securities in a margin account or otherwise pledging our securities as collateral for a loan without first obtaining pre-clearance from our General Counsel or his or her designee.

Compensation Policies as they relate to Risk Management

The Compensation Committee believes that our compensation programs are appropriately designed to provide a level of incentives that does not encourage our executive officers and employees to take unnecessary risks in managing their business operations or functions and in carrying out their employment responsibilities. Specifically:

•a substantial portion of our executive officers' compensation is performance-based, consistent with our approach to executive compensation;

•our annual incentive award program is designed to reward annual financial and/or strategic performance in areas considered critical to our short and long-term success;

•our long-term incentive awards are directly aligned with long-term stockholder interests through their link to our stock price and multi-year ratable vesting schedules; and

•our executive stock ownership guidelines further provide a long-term focus by requiring our executives to personally hold significant levels of our stock.

The Compensation Committee believes that the various elements of our executive compensation program sufficiently incentivize our executives to act based on the sustained long-term growth and performance of our company.

COMPENSATION AND HUMAN CAPITAL COMMITTEE REPORT

The Compensation and Human Capital Committee reviewed and discussed with management of the Company the foregoing Compensation Discussion and Analysis. Based on such review and discussion, the Compensation and Human Capital Committee has recommended to the Board that the Compensation Discussion and Analysis be included in this Proxy Statement and incorporated into our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2023.

PAY VERSUS PERFORMANCE

As required by Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following information regarding the relationship between “Compensation Actually Paid” (“CAP”) for our principal executive officer (“PEOs”), and “Average Compensation Actually Paid” for our non-PEO named executive officers (“Non-PEO NEOs”), as each such term is defined in Item 402(v), by the Company and the financial performance and total stockholder return (“TSR”) of the Company for each of the 2021, 2022 and 2023 fiscal years, calculated in a manner consistent with Item 402(v). In determining CAP, we are required to make various adjustments to amounts that have been reported in the Summary Compensation Table (“SCT”) for the applicable fiscal years, as Item 402(v)’s valuation methods for this table differ from those required in the SCT. For a more accurate description of our executive compensation program and the factors used by the Compensation Committee to determine pay for our named executive officers, see the “Compensation Discussion and Analysis” section of this proxy statement.

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide for compensation for our non-employee directors' services, in recognition of their time and skills. Directors who are also our officers or employees do not receive additional compensation for serving on the Board. Annual compensation for our non-employee directors comprises cash and stock-based equity compensation. Under our director compensation policy, each non-employee director is entitled to an annual cash retainer of $80,000 (other than any non-employee Chairman of the Board, who is entitled to an additional $100,000 cash retainer) and an annual RSU award having a fair market value of $175,000 as of the date of grant. In addition, the Audit Committee chair receives an additional cash retainer of $25,000, the Compensation Committee Chair receives an additional cash retainer of $20,000 and the chair of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee receives an additional cash retainer of $15,000. All other committee members receive an additional cash retainer of $10,000. Amounts are paid pro rata for any partial year of service.

In 2023, the closing price of one share of our common stock on the NYSE on the date used for converting the dollar value of equity-based incentive awards included in our annual grant to employees, March 6, 2024, was significantly higher than the expected closing price on the date the Company intended to make its annual equity-based awards to Board members. As a result, absent any changes, Board members would have received a substantially higher numbers of RSUs, on a per dollar value of award basis, than employees. In response to this imbalance, the Compensation Committee determined to use the same closing price used for employees, which resulted in Board members receiving awards significantly smaller in dollar values than in prior years, and and significantly smaller than the value provided by our director compensation policy, as set forth in the table below.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Registration Rights Agreement

We are party to a registration rights agreement with certain of our stockholders including New Enterprise Associates, Bessemer Venture Partners, StepStone, Town Hall Ventures, and certain subsidiaries of Cigna and certain of their respective affiliates. Each of New Enterprise Associates and Bessemer Venture Partners beneficially owned more than 5% of our outstanding common stock as of the Record Date.

The registration rights agreement, as amended, contains provisions that entitle the stockholder parties thereto to certain rights to have their securities registered by us under the Securities Act. New Enterprise Associates and Bessemer Venture Partners will be entitled to three “demand” registrations in the aggregate, subject to certain limitations. In addition, the stockholder parties to the registration rights agreement, including New Enterprise Associates, Bessemer Venture Partners, StepStone, and certain subsidiaries of Cigna are entitled to customary “piggyback” registration rights. The registration rights agreement provides that we will pay certain expenses of the stockholder parties relating to such registrations and indemnify them against certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act.

New Credit Agreement

On August 4, 2023, we entered into a Credit Agreement (as amended, supplemented, restated or otherwise modified from time to time, the “New Credit Agreement”), among the Company, NEA 18 Venture Growth Equity, L.P. ("NEA") and the lenders from time to time party thereto, to provide for a credit facility pursuant to which, among other things, the lenders have provided $60.0 million delayed draw term loan commitments.

On October 2, 2023, we entered into Incremental Amendment No. 1 (“Incremental Amendment No. 1”) to the New Credit Agreement with California State Teachers’ Retirement System (“CalSTRS”), which provided for a term loan commitment increase to the New Credit Agreement in an aggregate principal amount of $6.4 million. Loans under Incremental Amendment No. 1 have the same terms as loans under the original term loan commitments provided by the NEA. In connection therewith, on October 2, 2023, we entered into a warrantholders agreement with CalSTERS, setting forth the rights and obligations of the Company and CalSTERS, as holders of the warrants to acquire shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.01 per share, and providing for the issuance of 176,724 warrants at a fair market value of $5.80 (closing share price on October 2, 2023 minus a $0.01 exercise price).

Certain of our directors have current or former relationships with New Enterprise Associates. For information about these relationships see the section titled “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance-Board of Directors”.

Related Persons Transaction Policy

Our Board has adopted a written policy on transactions with related persons, which we refer to as our “related person policy.” Our related person policy requires that all “related persons” (as defined in paragraph (a) of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) must promptly disclose to our general counsel any “related person transaction” (defined as any transaction that is anticipated would be reportable by us under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K in which we were or are to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds the lesser of (i) $120,000 or (ii) one percent of the Company’s average total assets at year end for the last two completed fiscal years and in which any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest) and all material facts with respect thereto. Our general counsel will communicate that information to our Board or to a duly authorized committee thereof. Our related person policy provides that no related person transaction entered into will be executed without the approval or ratification of our Board or a duly authorized committee thereof. It will be our policy that any directors interested in a related person transaction must recuse themselves from any vote on a related person transaction in which they have an interest.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information about the beneficial ownership of our common stock as of March 1, 2024 for:

•each person or group known to us who beneficially owns more than 5% of our common stock;

•each of our directors;

•each of our Named Executive Officers; and

The number of shares and percentages of beneficial ownership set forth below are based on the 8,053,704 shares of our common stock issued and outstanding as of March 1, 2024.

Securities that can be so acquired are deemed to be outstanding for purposes of computing such person’s ownership percentage, but not for purposes of computing any other person’s percentage. Under these rules, more than one person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of the same securities and a person may be deemed to be a beneficial owner of securities as to which such person has no economic interest.

Unless otherwise noted in the footnotes to the following table, and subject to applicable community property laws, the persons named in the table have sole voting and investment power with respect to their beneficially owned common stock.

In considering the nature of the services provided by the independent auditor, the Audit Committee determined that such services are compatible with the provision of independent audit services.

AUDIT COMMITTEE PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy that requires advance approval of all audit services as well as non-audit services, regardless of cost, to the extent required by the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. Unless the specific service has been previously pre-approved with respect to that year, the Audit Committee must approve the permitted service before the independent auditor is engaged to perform it. The Audit Committee may consider the amount or range of estimated fees as a factor in determining whether a proposed service would impair the registered public accounting firm’s independence. Requests or applications to provide services that require separate approval by the Audit Committee will be submitted to the Audit Committee by both the independent registered public accounting firm and the Company’s Chief Financial Officer or the Chief Accounting Officer and must include a joint statement as to whether, in their view, the request or application is consistent with the SEC’s and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”)’s rules on registered public accounting firm independence.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

taken or any determination made with respect to the Plan or any Award hereunder (unless constituting fraud or a willful criminal act or omission). Each Indemnifiable Person shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from any loss, cost, liability, or expense (including attorneys’ fees) that may be imposed upon or incurred by such Indemnifiable Person in connection with or resulting from any action, suit or proceeding to which such Indemnifiable Person may be a party or in which such Indemnifiable Person may be involved by reason of any action taken or omitted to be taken or determination made with respect to the Plan or any Award hereunder and against and from any and all amounts paid by such Indemnifiable Person with the Company’s approval, in settlement thereof, or paid by such Indemnifiable Person in satisfaction of any judgment in any such action, suit or proceeding against such Indemnifiable Person, and the Company shall advance to such Indemnifiable Person any such expenses promptly upon written request (which request shall include an undertaking by the Indemnifiable Person to repay the amount of such advance if it shall ultimately be determined, as provided below, that the Indemnifiable Person is not entitled to be indemnified); provided, that the Company shall have the right, at its own expense, to assume and defend any such action, suit or proceeding and once the Company gives notice of its intent to assume the defense, the Company shall have sole control over such defense with counsel of the Company’s choice. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be available to an Indemnifiable Person to the extent that a final judgment or other final adjudication (in either case not subject to further appeal) binding upon such Indemnifiable Person determines that the acts, omissions or determinations of such Indemnifiable Person giving rise to the indemnification claim resulted from such Indemnifiable Person’s fraud or willful criminal act or omission or that such right of indemnification is otherwise prohibited by law or by the organizational documents of any member of the Company Group. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of or otherwise supersede any other rights of indemnification to which such Indemnifiable Persons may be entitled under the organizational documents of any member of the Company Group, as a matter of law, under an individual indemnification agreement or contract or otherwise, or any other power that the Company may have to indemnify such Indemnifiable Persons or hold such Indemnifiable Persons harmless.

(f) Board Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in the Plan, the Board may, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time, grant Awards and administer the Plan with respect to any Awards. Any such actions by the Board shall be subject to the applicable rules of the securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the Common Stock is listed or quoted. In any such case, the Board shall have all the authority granted to the Committee under the Plan.

5. Grant of Awards; Shares Subject to the Plan; Limitations.

(a) Grants. The Committee may, from time to time, grant Awards to one or more Eligible Persons. All Awards granted under the Plan shall vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates or upon such event or events as determined by the Committee, including, without limitation, attainment of Performance Criteria. Notwithstanding any vesting dates or events, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, accelerate the vesting of any Award at any time and for any reason.

(b) Share Reserve and Limits. Awards granted under the Plan shall be subject to the following limitations: (i) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than 4,364,486 shares of Common Stock (the “Absolute Share Limit”) shall be available for Awards under the Plan; provided, that the Absolute Share Limit shall be automatically increased on the first day of each fiscal year commencing on January 1, 2022 in an amount equal to the lesser of (x) five percent (5%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (y) such number of shares Common Stock as determined by the Board; (ii) subject to Section 12 of the Plan, no more than the number of shares of Common Stock equal to the Absolute Share Limit may be issued in the aggregate pursuant to the exercise of Incentive Stock Options granted under the Plan; and (iii) the maximum number of shares of Common Stock subject to Awards granted during a single fiscal year to any Non-Employee Director, taken together with any cash fees paid to such Non-Employee Director during the fiscal year, shall not exceed $650,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such Awards based on the grant date fair value of such Awards for financial reporting purposes).

(c) Share Counting. Other than with respect to Substitute Awards, to the extent that an Award expires or is canceled, forfeited, or terminated without issuance to the Participant of the full number of shares of Common Stock to which the Award related, the unissued shares will again be available for grant under the Plan. Shares of Common Stock shall be deemed to have been issued in settlement of Awards if the Fair Market Value equivalent of such shares is paid in cash in connection with such settlement; provided, that no shares shall be deemed to have been issued in settlement of a SAR or Restricted Stock Unit that provides for settlement only in cash and settles only in cash or in respect of any Cash-Based Incentive Award. In no event shall shares (i) tendered or withheld on exercise of Options or other Awards for the payment of the exercise or purchase price or withholding taxes, (ii) not issued upon the settlement of a SAR that by the terms of the Award Agreement would settle in shares of Common Stock (or could settle in shares of Common Stock), or (iii) purchased on the open market with cash proceeds from the exercise of Options, again become available for other Awards under the Plan.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(d) Source of Shares. Shares of Common Stock issued by the Company in settlement of Awards may be authorized and unissued shares, shares held in the treasury of the Company, shares purchased on the open market or by private purchase or a combination of the foregoing.

(e) Substitute Awards. Awards may, in the sole discretion of the Committee, be granted under the Plan in assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding awards previously granted by an entity directly or indirectly acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines (“Substitute Awards”). Substitute Awards shall not be counted against the Absolute Share Limit; provided, that Substitute Awards issued in connection with the assumption of, or in substitution for, outstanding options intended to qualify as “incentive stock options” within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code shall be counted against the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock available for Awards of Incentive Stock Options under the Plan. Subject to applicable stock exchange requirements, available shares under a stockholder-approved plan of an entity directly or indirectly acquired by the Company or with which the Company combines (as appropriately adjusted to reflect the acquisition or combination transaction) may be used for Awards under the Plan and shall not reduce the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan.

6. Eligibility. Participation in the Plan shall be limited to Eligible Persons.

7. Options.

(a) General. Each Option granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, which agreement need not be the same for each Participant. Each Option so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 7, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement. All Options granted under the Plan shall be Nonqualified Stock Options unless the applicable Award Agreement expressly states that the Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option. Incentive Stock Options shall be granted only to Eligible Persons who are employees of a member of the Company Group, and no Incentive Stock Option shall be granted to any Eligible Person who is ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option under the Code. No Option shall be treated as an Incentive Stock Option unless the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company in a manner intended to comply with the stockholder approval requirements of Section 422(b)(1) of the Code; provided, that any Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not fail to be effective solely on account of a failure to obtain such approval, but rather such Option shall be treated as a Nonqualified Stock Option unless and until such approval is obtained. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the terms and conditions of such grant shall be subject to, and comply with, such rules as may be prescribed by Section 422 of the Code. If for any reason an Option intended to be an Incentive Stock Option (or any portion thereof) shall not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, then, to the extent of such nonqualification, such Option or portion thereof shall be regarded as a Nonqualified Stock Option appropriately granted under the Plan.

(b) Exercise Price. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the case of Substitute Awards, the exercise price (“Exercise Price”) per share of Common Stock for each Option shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of such share (determined as of the Date of Grant); provided, that, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to an employee who, at the time of the grant of such Option, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of any member of the Company Group, the Exercise Price per share shall be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per share on the Date of Grant.

(i) Options shall vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates or upon such event or events as determined by the Committee.

(ii) Options shall expire upon a date determined by the Committee, not to exceed ten (10) years from the Date of Grant (the “Option Period”); provided, that, if the Option Period (other than in the case of an Incentive Stock Option) would expire at a time when trading in the shares of Common Stock is prohibited by the Company’s insider trading policy (or Company-imposed “blackout period”), then the Option Period shall be automatically extended until the thirtieth (30th) day following the expiration of such prohibition. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Option Period exceed five (5) years from the Date of Grant in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who on the Date of Grant owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of any member of the Company Group.

(d) Method of Exercise and Form of Payment. No shares of Common Stock shall be issued pursuant to any exercise of an Option until payment in full of the Exercise Price therefor is received by the Company and the Participant has paid to the Company an amount equal to any Federal, state, local and non-U.S. income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld. Options which have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written

TABLE OF CONTENTS

or electronic notice of exercise to the Company (or telephonic instructions to the extent provided by the Committee) in accordance with the terms of the Option accompanied by payment of the Exercise Price. The Exercise Price shall be payable: (i) in cash, check, cash equivalent and/or shares of Common Stock valued at the Fair Market Value at the time the Option is exercised (including, pursuant to procedures approved by the Committee, by means of attestation of ownership of a sufficient number of shares of Common Stock in lieu of actual issuance of such shares to the Company); provided, that such shares of Common Stock are not subject to any pledge or other security interest and have been held by the Participant for at least six (6) months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting treatment applying generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”)); or (ii) by such other method as the Committee may permit, in its sole discretion, including, without limitation (A) in other property having a fair market value on the date of exercise equal to the Exercise Price; (B) if there is a public market for the shares of Common Stock at such time, by means of a broker-assisted “cashless exercise” pursuant to which the Company is delivered (including telephonically to the extent permitted by the Committee) a copy of irrevocable instructions to a stockbroker to sell the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable upon the exercise of the Option and to deliver promptly to the Company an amount equal to the Exercise Price; or (C) a “net exercise” procedure effected by withholding the minimum number of shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable in respect of an Option that are needed to pay the Exercise Price. Any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be settled in cash.

(e) Notification upon Disqualifying Disposition of an Incentive Stock Option. Each Participant awarded an Incentive Stock Option under the Plan shall notify the Company in writing immediately after the date the Participant makes a disqualifying disposition of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Incentive Stock Option. A disqualifying disposition is any disposition (including, without limitation, any sale) of such Common Stock before the later of (i) the date that is two (2) years after the Date of Grant of the Incentive Stock Option, or (ii) the date that is one (1) year after the date of exercise of the Incentive Stock Option. The Company may, if determined by the Committee and in accordance with procedures established by the Committee, retain possession, as agent for the applicable Participant, of any Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of an Incentive Stock Option until the end of the period described in the preceding sentence, subject to complying with any instructions from such Participant as to the sale of such Common Stock.

(f) Compliance With Laws, etc. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Participant be permitted to exercise an Option in a manner which the Committee determines would violate the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as it may be amended from time to time, or any other applicable law or the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission or the applicable rules and regulations of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or traded.

8. Stock Appreciation Rights.

(a) General. Each SAR granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each SAR so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 8, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement. Any Option granted under the Plan may include tandem SARs. The Committee also may award SARs to Eligible Persons independent of any Option.

(b) Strike Price. Except as otherwise provided by the Committee in the case of Substitute Awards, the strike price (“Strike Price”) per share of Common Stock for each SAR shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of such share (determined as of the Date of Grant). Notwithstanding the foregoing, a SAR granted in tandem with (or in substitution for) an Option previously granted shall have a Strike Price equal to the Exercise Price of the corresponding Option.

(i) A SAR granted in connection with an Option shall become exercisable and shall expire according to the same vesting schedule and expiration provisions as the corresponding Option. A SAR granted independent of an Option shall vest and become exercisable in such manner and on such date or dates or upon such event or events as determined by the Committee.

(ii) SARs shall expire upon a date determined by the Committee, not to exceed ten (10) years from the Date of Grant (the “SAR Period”); provided, that, if the SAR Period would expire at a time when trading in the shares of Common Stock is prohibited by the Company’s insider trading policy (or Company-imposed “blackout period”), then the SAR Period shall be automatically extended until the thirtieth (30th) day following the expiration of such prohibition.

(d) Method of Exercise. SARs which have become exercisable may be exercised by delivery of written or electronic notice of exercise to the Company in accordance with the terms of the Award, specifying the number of SARs to be exercised and the date on which such SARs were awarded.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(e) Payment. Upon the exercise of a SAR, the Company shall pay to the Participant an amount equal to the number of shares subject to the SAR that is being exercised multiplied by the excess of the Fair Market Value of one (1) share of Common Stock on the exercise date over the Strike Price, less an amount equal to any Federal, state, local and non-U.S. income, employment and any other applicable taxes required to be withheld. The Company shall pay such amount in cash, in shares of Common Stock valued at Fair Market Value, or any combination thereof, as determined by the Committee. Any fractional shares of Common Stock shall be settled in cash.

9. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units.

(a) General. Each grant of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement. Each Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit so granted shall be subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 9, and to such other conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.

(b) Stock Certificates and Book-Entry; Escrow or Similar Arrangement. Upon the grant of Restricted Stock, the Committee shall cause a stock certificate registered in the name of the Participant to be issued or shall cause share(s) of Common Stock to be registered in the name of the Participant and held in book-entry form subject to the Company’s directions and, if the Committee determines that the Restricted Stock shall be held by the Company or in escrow rather than issued to the Participant pending the release of the applicable restrictions, the Committee may require the Participant to additionally execute and deliver to the Company (i) an escrow agreement satisfactory to the Committee, if applicable; and (ii) the appropriate stock power (endorsed in blank) with respect to the Restricted Stock covered by such agreement. If a Participant shall fail to execute and deliver (in a manner permitted under Section 14(a) of the Plan or as otherwise determined by the Committee) an agreement evidencing an Award of Restricted Stock and, if applicable, an escrow agreement and blank stock power within the amount of time specified by the Committee, the Award shall be null and void. Subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 9, Section 14(c) of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement, a Participant generally shall have the rights and privileges of a stockholder as to shares of Restricted Stock, including, without limitation, the right to vote such Restricted Stock. To the extent shares of Restricted Stock are forfeited, any stock certificates issued to the Participant evidencing such shares shall be returned to the Company, and all rights of the Participant to such shares and as a stockholder with respect thereto shall terminate without further obligation on the part of the Company. A Participant shall have no rights or privileges as a stockholder as to Restricted Stock Units.

(c) Vesting. Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall vest, and any applicable Restricted Period shall lapse, in such manner and on such date or dates or upon such event or events as determined by the Committee.

(d) Issuance of Restricted Stock and Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.

(i) Upon the expiration of the Restricted Period with respect to any shares of Restricted Stock, the restrictions set forth in the applicable Award Agreement shall be of no further force or effect with respect to such shares, except as set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. If an escrow arrangement is used, upon such expiration, the Company shall issue to the Participant, or the Participant’s beneficiary, without charge, the stock certificate (or, if applicable, a notice evidencing a book-entry notation) evidencing the shares of Restricted Stock which have not then been forfeited and with respect to which the Restricted Period has expired (rounded down to the nearest full share). Dividends, if any, that may have been withheld by the Committee and attributable to any particular share of Restricted Stock shall be distributed to the Participant in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in shares of Common Stock having a Fair Market Value (on the date of distribution) equal to the amount of such dividends, upon the release of restrictions on such share and, if such share is forfeited, the Participant shall have no right to such dividends.

(ii) Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement or otherwise, upon the expiration of the Restricted Period with respect to any outstanding Restricted Stock Units, the Company shall issue to the Participant or the Participant’s beneficiary, without charge, one (1) share of Common Stock (or other securities or other property, as applicable) for each such outstanding Restricted Stock Unit; provided, that the Committee may, in its sole discretion, elect to (A) pay cash or part cash and part shares of Common Stock in lieu of issuing only shares of Common Stock in respect of such Restricted Stock Units; or (B) defer the issuance of shares of Common Stock (or cash or part cash and part shares of Common Stock, as the case may be) beyond the expiration of the Restricted Period if such extension would not cause adverse tax consequences under Section 409A of the Code. If a cash payment is made in lieu of issuing shares of Common Stock in respect of such Restricted Stock Units, the amount of such payment shall be equal to the Fair Market Value per share of the Common Stock as of the date on which the Restricted Period lapsed with respect to such Restricted Stock Units.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(e) Legends on Restricted Stock. Each certificate, if any, or book entry representing Restricted Stock awarded under the Plan, if any, shall bear a legend or book entry notation substantially in the form of the following, in addition to any other information the Company deems appropriate, until the lapse of all restrictions with respect to such shares of Common Stock:

TRANSFER OF THIS CERTIFICATE AND THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY IS RESTRICTED PURSUANT TO THE TERMS OF THE NEUEHEALTH, INC. 2021 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN AND A RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD AGREEMENT BETWEEN NEUEHEALTH, INC. AND PARTICIPANT. A COPY OF SUCH PLAN AND AWARD AGREEMENT IS ON FILE AT THE PRINCIPAL EXECUTIVE OFFICES OF NEUEHEALTH, INC.

10. Other Equity-Based Awards. The Committee may grant Other Equity-Based Awards under the Plan to Eligible Persons, alone or in tandem with other Awards, in such amounts and dependent on such conditions as the Committee shall from time to time in its sole discretion determine. Each Other Equity-Based Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement and shall be subject to such conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be reflected in the applicable Award Agreement.

11. Cash-Based Incentive Awards. The Committee may grant Cash-Based Incentive Awards under the Plan to any Eligible Person. Each Cash-Based Incentive Award granted under the Plan shall be evidenced in such form as the Committee may determine from time to time.

12. Changes in Capital Structure and Similar Events. Notwithstanding any other provision in the Plan to the contrary, the following provisions shall apply to all Awards granted hereunder (other than Cash-Based Incentive Awards):

(a) General. In the event of (i) any dividend (other than regular cash dividends) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to acquire shares of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event that affects the shares of Common Stock (including a Change in Control); or (ii) unusual or nonrecurring events affecting the Company, including changes in applicable rules, rulings, regulations or other requirements, that the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, could result in substantial dilution or enlargement of the rights intended to be granted to, or available for, Participants (any event in (i) or (ii), an “Adjustment Event”), the Committee shall, in respect of any such Adjustment Event, make such proportionate substitution or adjustment, if any, as it deems equitable, to any or all of (A) the Absolute Share Limit, or any other limit applicable under the Plan with respect to the number and class of shares of common stock that may be delivered under the Plan; (B) the number, class and price of shares of common stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) which may be issued in respect of Awards or with respect to which Awards may be granted under the Plan or any Sub-Plan; and (C) the terms of any outstanding Award, including, without limitation, (I) the number and class of shares of common stock or other securities of the Company (or number and kind of other securities or other property) subject to outstanding Awards or to which outstanding Awards relate; (II) the Exercise Price or Strike Price with respect to any Award; or (III) any applicable performance measures (including, without limitation, Performance Criteria); provided, that, in the case of any “equity restructuring” (within the meaning of the Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification Topic 718 (or any successor pronouncement thereto)), the Committee shall make an equitable or proportionate adjustment to outstanding Awards to reflect such equity restructuring.

(b) Change in Control. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Change in Control, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide for any one or more of the following:

(i) substitution or assumption of Awards, or to the extent that the surviving entity (or Affiliate thereof) of such Change in Control does not substitute or assume the Awards, full acceleration of vesting of, exercisability of, or lapse of restrictions on, as applicable, any Awards; provided, that, unless the applicable Award Agreement provides for different treatment upon a Change in Control, with respect to any performance-vested Awards, any such acceleration of vesting, exercisability, or lapse of restrictions shall be based on (A) the target level of performance if the applicable performance period has not ended prior to the date of such Change in Control, and (B) the actual level of performance attained during the performance period if the applicable performance period has ended prior to the date of such Change in Control; and

(ii) cancellation of any one or more outstanding Awards and payment to the holders of such Awards that are vested as of such cancellation (including, without limitation, any Awards that would vest as a result of the occurrence of such event but for such cancellation or for which vesting is accelerated by the Committee in connection with such event pursuant to clause (i) above), the value of such Awards, if any, as determined by the

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Committee (which value, if applicable, may be based upon the price per share of Common Stock received or to be received by other stockholders of the Company in such event), including, without limitation, in the case of an outstanding Option or SAR, a cash payment in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value (as of a date specified by the Committee) of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Option or SAR over the aggregate Exercise Price or Strike Price of such Option or SAR (it being understood that, in such event, any Option or SAR having a per share Exercise Price or Strike Price equal to, or in excess of, the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock subject thereto may be canceled and terminated without any payment or consideration therefor).

For purposes of clause (i) above, an award will be considered granted in substitution of an Award if it has an equivalent value (as determined consistent with clause (ii) above) with the original Award, whether designated in securities of the acquiror in such Change in Control transaction (or an Affiliate thereof), or in cash or other property (including in the same consideration that other stockholders of the Company receive in connection with such Change in Control transaction), and retains the vesting schedule applicable to the original Award.

Payments to holders pursuant to clause (ii) above shall be made in cash or, in the sole discretion of the Committee, in the form of such other consideration necessary for a Participant to receive property, cash, or securities (or combination thereof) as such Participant would have been entitled to receive upon the occurrence of the transaction if the Participant had been, immediately prior to such transaction, the holder of the number of shares of Common Stock covered by the Award at such time (less any applicable Exercise Price or Strike Price).

(c) Other Requirements. Prior to any payment or adjustment contemplated under this Section 12, the Committee may require a Participant to (i) represent and warrant as to the unencumbered title to the Participant’s Awards; (ii) bear such Participant’s pro rata share of any post-closing indemnity obligations, and be subject to the same post-closing purchase price adjustments, escrow terms, offset rights, holdback terms, and similar conditions as the other holders of Common Stock, subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code; and (iii) deliver customary transfer documentation as reasonably determined by the Committee.

(d) Fractional Shares. Any adjustment provided under this Section 12 may provide for the elimination of any fractional share that might otherwise become subject to an Award.

(e) Binding Effect. Any adjustment, substitution, determination of value or other action taken by the Committee under this Section 12 shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes.

13. Amendments and Termination.

(a) Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board or Committee may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided, that no such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination shall be made without stockholder approval if (i) such approval is necessary to comply with any regulatory requirement applicable to the Plan (including, without limitation, as necessary to comply with any rules or regulations of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company may be listed or quoted) or for changes in GAAP to new accounting standards; (ii) it would materially increase the number of securities which may be issued under the Plan (except for increases pursuant to Sections 5 or 12 of the Plan); or (iii) it would materially modify the requirements for participation in the Plan; provided, further, that any such amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant or any holder or beneficiary of any Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant, holder or beneficiary. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amendment shall be made to Section 13(c) of the Plan without stockholder approval.

(b) Amendment of Award Agreements. The Committee may, to the extent consistent with the terms of the Plan and any applicable Award Agreement, waive any conditions or rights under, amend any terms of, or alter, suspend, discontinue, cancel or terminate, any Award theretofore granted or the associated Award Agreement, prospectively or retroactively (including after a Participant’s Termination); provided, that, other than pursuant to Section 12, any such waiver, amendment, alteration, suspension, discontinuance, cancellation or termination that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant with respect to any Award theretofore granted shall not to that extent be effective without the consent of the affected Participant.

(c) No Repricing. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, without stockholder approval, except as otherwise permitted under Section 12 of the Plan, (i) no amendment or modification may reduce the Exercise Price of any Option or the Strike Price of any SAR; (ii) the Committee may not cancel any outstanding Option or SAR and replace it with a new Option or SAR (with a lower Exercise Price or Strike Price, as the case may be) or other Award or cash payment that is greater than the intrinsic value (if any) of the cancelled Option or SAR; and (iii) the Committee may

TABLE OF CONTENTS

not take any other action which is considered a “repricing” for purposes of the stockholder approval rules of any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or quoted.

14. General.

(a) Award Agreements. Each Award (other than a Cash-Based Incentive Award) under the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, which shall be delivered to the Participant to whom such Award was granted and shall specify the terms and conditions of the Award and any rules applicable thereto, including, without limitation, the effect on such Award of the death, Disability or Termination of a Participant, or of such other events as may be determined by the Committee. For purposes of the Plan, an Award Agreement may be in any such form (written or electronic) as determined by the Committee (including, without limitation, a Board or Committee resolution, an employment agreement, a notice, a certificate or a letter) evidencing the Award. The Committee need not require an Award Agreement to be signed by the Participant or a duly authorized representative of the Company.

(b) Nontransferability.

(i) Each Award shall be exercisable only by such Participant to whom such Award was granted during the Participant’s lifetime, or, if permissible under applicable law, by the Participant’s legal guardian or representative. No Award may be assigned, alienated, pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant (unless such transfer is specifically required pursuant to a domestic relations order or by applicable law) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution and any such purported assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance shall be void and unenforceable against any member of the Company Group; provided, that the designation of a beneficiary shall not constitute an assignment, alienation, pledge, attachment, sale, transfer or encumbrance.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, permit Awards (other than Incentive Stock Options) to be transferred by a Participant, without consideration, subject to such rules as the Committee may adopt consistent with any applicable Award Agreement to preserve the purposes of the Plan, to (A) any person who is a “family member” of the Participant, as such term is used in the instructions to Form S-8 under the Securities Act or any successor form of registration statement promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (collectively, the “Immediate Family Members”); (B) a trust solely for the benefit of the Participant and the Participant’s Immediate Family Members; (C) a partnership or limited liability company whose only partners or stockholders are the Participant and the Participant’s Immediate Family Members; or (D) a beneficiary to whom donations are eligible to be treated as “charitable contributions” for federal income tax purposes (each transferee described in clauses (A), (B), (C) and (D) above is hereinafter referred to as a “Permitted Transferee”); provided, that the Participant gives the Committee advance written notice describing the terms and conditions of the proposed transfer and the Committee notifies the Participant in writing that such a transfer would comply with the requirements of the Plan.

(iii) The terms of any Award transferred in accordance with clause (ii) above shall apply to the Permitted Transferee and any reference in the Plan, or in any applicable Award Agreement, to a Participant shall be deemed to refer to the Permitted Transferee, except that (A) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to transfer any Award, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (B) Permitted Transferees shall not be entitled to exercise any transferred Option unless there shall be in effect a registration statement on an appropriate form covering the shares of Common Stock to be acquired pursuant to the exercise of such Option if the Committee determines, consistent with any applicable Award Agreement, that such a registration statement is necessary or appropriate; (C) neither the Committee nor the Company shall be required to provide any notice to a Permitted Transferee, whether or not such notice is or would otherwise have been required to be given to the Participant under the Plan or otherwise; and (D) the consequences of a Participant’s Termination under the terms of the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement shall continue to be applied with respect to the Participant, including, without limitation, that an Option shall be exercisable by the Permitted Transferee only to the extent, and for the periods, specified in the Plan and the applicable Award Agreement.

(c) Dividends and Dividend Equivalents. The Committee may, in its sole discretion, provide a Participant as part of an Award with dividends, dividend equivalents, or similar payments in respect of Awards, payable in cash, shares of Common Stock, other securities, other Awards or other property, on a current or deferred basis, on such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, including, without limitation, payment directly to the Participant, withholding of such amounts by the Company subject to vesting of the Award or reinvestment in additional shares of Common Stock, Restricted Stock or other Awards. Without limiting the foregoing, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, any dividend otherwise payable in respect of any share of Restricted Stock that remains subject to vesting conditions at the time of payment of such dividend shall be retained by the Company and remain subject to the same vesting conditions as the share of Restricted Stock to which the dividend relates.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(d) Tax Withholding.

(i) A Participant shall be required to pay to the Company or one or more of its Subsidiaries, as applicable, an amount in cash (by check or wire transfer) equal to the aggregate amount of any income, employment and/or other applicable taxes that are statutorily required to be withheld in respect of an Award. Alternatively, the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may elect, in its sole discretion, to satisfy this requirement by withholding such amount from any cash compensation or other cash amounts owing to a Participant.

(ii) Without limiting the foregoing, the Committee may (but is not obligated to), in its sole discretion, permit or require a Participant to satisfy, all or any portion of the minimum income, employment and/or other applicable taxes that are statutorily required to be withheld with respect to an Award by (A) the delivery of shares of Common Stock (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest) that have been both held by the Participant and vested for at least six (6) months (or such other period as established from time to time by the Committee in order to avoid adverse accounting treatment under applicable accounting standards) having an aggregate fair market value equal to such minimum statutorily required withholding liability (or portion thereof); or (B) having the Company withhold from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable to, or that would otherwise be retained by, the Participant upon the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of the Award, as applicable, a number of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate fair market value equal to an amount, subject to clause (iii) below, not in excess of such minimum statutorily required withholding liability (or portion thereof).

(iii) The Committee has full discretion to allow Participants to satisfy, in whole or in part, any additional income, employment and/or other applicable taxes payable by them with respect to an Award by electing to have the Company withhold from the shares of Common Stock otherwise issuable or deliverable to, or that would otherwise be retained by, a Participant upon the grant, exercise, vesting or settlement of the Award, as applicable, shares of Common Stock having an aggregate fair market value that is greater than the applicable minimum required statutory withholding liability (but such withholding may in no event be in excess of the maximum statutory withholding amount(s) in a Participant’s relevant tax jurisdictions).

(e) Data Protection. By participating in the Plan or accepting any rights granted under it, each Participant consents to the collection and processing of personal data relating to the Participant so that the Company and its Affiliates can fulfill their obligations and exercise their rights under the Plan and generally administer and manage the Plan. This data will include, but may not be limited to, data about participation in the Plan and shares offered or received, purchased, or sold under the Plan from time to time and other appropriate financial and other data (such as the date on which the Awards were granted) about the Participant and the Participant’s participation in the Plan.

(f) No Claim to Awards; No Rights to Continued Employment; Waiver. No employee of any member of the Company Group, or other Person, shall have any claim or right to be granted an Award under the Plan or, having been selected for the grant of an Award, to be selected for a grant of any other Award. There is no obligation for uniformity of treatment of Participants or holders or beneficiaries of Awards. The terms and conditions of Awards and the Committee’s determinations and interpretations with respect thereto need not be the same with respect to each Participant and may be made selectively among Participants, whether or not such Participants are similarly situated. Neither the Plan nor any action taken hereunder shall be construed as giving any Participant any right to be retained in the employ or service of the Service Recipient or any other member of the Company Group, nor shall it be construed as giving any Participant any rights to continued service on the Board. The Service Recipient or any other member of the Company Group may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment or discontinue any consulting relationship, free from any liability or any claim under the Plan, unless otherwise expressly provided in the Plan or any Award Agreement. By accepting an Award under the Plan, a Participant shall thereby be deemed to have waived any claim to continued exercise or vesting of an Award or to damages or severance entitlement related to non-continuation of the Award beyond the period provided under the Plan or any Award Agreement, except to the extent of any provision to the contrary in any written employment contract or other agreement between the Service Recipient and/or any member of the Company Group and the Participant, whether any such agreement is executed before, on or after the Date of Grant.

(g) International Participants. With respect to Participants who reside or work outside of the United States of America, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, amend the terms of the Plan and create or amend Sub-Plans or amend outstanding Awards with respect to such Participants in order to conform such terms with the requirements of local law or to obtain more favorable tax or other treatment for a Participant or any member of the Company Group.

(h) Designation and Change of Beneficiary. Each Participant may file with the Committee a written designation of one or more Persons as the beneficiary or beneficiaries, as applicable, who shall be entitled to receive the amounts payable with respect to an Award, if any, due under the Plan upon the Participant’s death. A Participant may,

TABLE OF CONTENTS

from time to time, revoke or change the Participant’s beneficiary designation without the consent of any prior beneficiary by filing a new designation with the Committee. The last such designation received by the Committee shall be controlling; provided, that no designation, or change or revocation thereof, shall be effective unless received by the Committee prior to the Participant’s death, and in no event shall it be effective as of a date prior to such receipt. If no beneficiary designation is filed by a Participant, the beneficiary shall be deemed to be the Participant’s spouse or, if the Participant is unmarried at the time of death, the Participant’s estate.

(i) Termination. Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement, unless determined otherwise by the Committee at any point following such event: (i) neither a temporary absence from employment or service due to illness, vacation or leave of absence (including, without limitation, a call to active duty for military service through a Reserve or National Guard unit) nor a transfer from employment or service with one Service Recipient to employment or service with another Service Recipient (or vice-versa) shall be considered a Termination; and (ii) if a Participant undergoes a Termination of employment, but such Participant continues to provide services to the Company Group in a non-employee capacity, such change in status shall not be considered a Termination for purposes of the Plan. Further, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, in the event that any Service Recipient ceases to be a member of the Company Group (by reason of sale, divestiture, spin-off or other similar transaction), unless a Participant’s employment or service is transferred to another entity that would constitute a Service Recipient immediately following such transaction, such Participant shall be deemed to have suffered a Termination hereunder as of the date of the consummation of such transaction.

(j) No Rights as a Stockholder. Except as otherwise specifically provided in the Plan or any Award Agreement, no Person shall be entitled to the privileges of ownership in respect of shares of Common Stock which are subject to Awards hereunder until such shares have been issued or delivered to such Person.

(k) Government and Other Regulations.

(i) The obligation of the Company to settle Awards in shares of Common Stock or other consideration shall be subject to all applicable laws, rules, and regulations, and to such approvals by governmental agencies as may be required. Notwithstanding any terms or conditions of any Award to the contrary, the Company shall be under no obligation to offer to sell or to sell, and shall be prohibited from offering to sell or selling, any shares of Common Stock pursuant to an Award unless such shares have been properly registered for sale pursuant to the Securities Act with the Securities and Exchange Commission or unless the Company has received an opinion of counsel (if the Company has requested such an opinion), satisfactory to the Company, that such shares may be offered or sold without such registration pursuant to an available exemption therefrom and the terms and conditions of such exemption have been fully complied with. The Company shall be under no obligation to register for sale under the Securities Act any of the shares of Common Stock to be offered or sold under the Plan. The Committee shall have the authority to provide that all shares of Common Stock or other securities of any member of the Company Group issued under the Plan shall be subject to such stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan, the applicable Award Agreement, the Federal securities laws, or the rules, regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any securities exchange or inter-dealer quotation system on which the securities of the Company are listed or quoted and any other applicable Federal, state, local or non-U.S. laws, rules, regulations and other requirements, and, without limiting the generality of Section 9 of the Plan, the Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on certificates representing shares of Common Stock or other securities of any member of the Company Group issued under the Plan to make appropriate reference to such restrictions or may cause such Common Stock or other securities of any member of the Company Group issued under the Plan in book-entry form to be held subject to the Company’s instructions or subject to appropriate stop-transfer orders. Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, the Committee reserves the right to, at any time, add any additional terms or provisions to any Award granted under the Plan that the Committee, in its sole discretion, deems necessary or advisable in order that such Award complies with the legal requirements of any governmental entity to whose jurisdiction the Award is subject.

(ii) The Committee may cancel an Award or any portion thereof if it determines, in its sole discretion, that legal or contractual restrictions and/or blockage and/or other market considerations would make the Company’s acquisition of shares of Common Stock from the public markets, the Company’s issuance of Common Stock to the Participant, the Participant’s acquisition of Common Stock from the Company and/or the Participant’s sale of Common Stock to the public markets, illegal, impracticable or inadvisable. If the Committee determines to cancel all or any portion of an Award in accordance with the foregoing, the Company shall, subject to any limitations or reductions as may be necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code, (A) pay to the Participant an amount equal to the excess of (I) the aggregate Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock subject to such Award or portion thereof canceled (determined as of the applicable exercise date, or the date that the shares would have been vested or issued, as applicable); over (II) the aggregate Exercise Price or Strike Price (in the case of an Option or SAR, respectively) or any amount payable as a condition of issuance of shares of

Common Stock (in the case of any other Award). Such amount shall be delivered to the Participant as soon as practicable following the cancellation of such Award or portion thereof, or (B) in the case of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Other Equity-Based Awards, provide the Participant with a cash payment or equity subject to deferred vesting and delivery consistent with the vesting restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units or Other Equity-Based Awards, or the underlying shares in respect thereof.

(l) No Section 83(b) Elections Without Consent of Company. No election under Section 83(b) of the Code or under a similar provision of law may be made unless expressly permitted by the terms of the applicable Award Agreement or by action of the Company in writing prior to the making of such election. If a Participant, in connection with the acquisition of shares of Common Stock under the Plan or otherwise, is expressly permitted to make such election and the Participant makes the election, the Participant shall notify the Company of such election within ten (10) days of filing notice of the election with the Internal Revenue Service or other governmental authority, in addition to any filing and notification required pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code or other applicable provision.

(m) Payments to Persons Other Than Participants. If the Committee shall find that any Person to whom any amount is payable under the Plan is unable to care for the Participant’s affairs because of illness or accident, or is a minor, or has died, then any payment due to such Person or the Participant’s estate (unless a prior claim therefor has been made by a duly appointed legal representative) may, if the Committee so directs the Company, be paid to the Participant’s spouse, child, relative, an institution maintaining or having custody of such Person, or any other Person deemed by the Committee to be a proper recipient on behalf of such Person otherwise entitled to payment. Any such payment shall be a complete discharge of the liability of the Committee and the Company therefor.

(n) Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of the Plan by the Committee nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Committee or Board to adopt such other incentive arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of equity-based awards otherwise than under the Plan, and such arrangements may be either applicable generally or only in specific cases.

(o) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a fiduciary relationship between any member of the Company Group, on the one hand, and a Participant or other Person, on the other hand. No provision of the Plan or any Award shall require the Company, for the purpose of satisfying any obligations under the Plan, to purchase assets or place any assets in a trust or other entity to which contributions are made or otherwise to segregate any assets, nor shall the Company be obligated to maintain separate bank accounts, books, records or other evidence of the existence of a segregated or separately maintained or administered fund for such purposes. Participants shall have no rights under the Plan other than as unsecured general creditors of the Company, except that insofar as they may have become entitled to payment of additional compensation by performance of services, they shall have the same rights as other service providers under general law.

(p) Reliance on Reports. Each member of the Committee and each member of the Board shall be fully justified in acting or failing to act, as the case may be, and shall not be liable for having so acted or failed to act in good faith, in reliance upon any report made by the independent public accountant of any member of the Company Group and/or any other information furnished in connection with the Plan by any agent of the Company or the Committee or the Board, other than himself or herself.

(q) Relationship to Other Benefits. No payment under the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, profit sharing, group insurance or other benefit plan of the Company except as otherwise specifically provided in such other plan or as required by applicable law.

(r) Governing Law. The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware applicable to contracts made and performed wholly within the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the conflict of laws provisions thereof. EACH PARTICIPANT WHO ACCEPTS AN AWARD IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY SUIT, ACTION, OR OTHER PROCEEDING INSTITUTED BY OR AGAINST SUCH PARTICIPANT IN RESPECT OF THE PARTICIPANT’S RIGHTS OR OBLIGATIONS HEREUNDER.

(s) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Award or Award Agreement is or becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction or as to any Person or Award, or would disqualify the Plan or any Award under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee, materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Award, such provision shall be construed or deemed stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Award and the remainder of the Plan and any such Award shall remain in full force and effect.

(t) Obligations Binding on Successors. The obligations of the Company under the Plan shall be binding upon any successor corporation or organization resulting from the merger, consolidation or other reorganization of the Company, or upon any successor corporation or organization succeeding to substantially all of the assets and business of the Company.

(u) Section 409A of the Code.

(i) Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, it is intended that the provisions of the Plan comply with Section 409A of the Code, and all provisions of the Plan shall be construed and interpreted in a manner consistent with the requirements for avoiding taxes or penalties under Section 409A of the Code. Each Participant is solely responsible and liable for the satisfaction of all taxes and penalties that may be imposed on or in respect of such Participant in connection with the Plan (including any taxes and penalties under Section 409A of the Code), and neither the Service Recipient nor any other member of the Company Group shall have any obligation to indemnify or otherwise hold such Participant (or any beneficiary) harmless from any or all of such taxes or penalties. With respect to any Award that is considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, references in the Plan to “termination of employment” (and substantially similar phrases) shall mean “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. For purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each of the payments that may be made in respect of any Award granted under the Plan is designated as a separate payment.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if a Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A(a)(2)(B)(i) of the Code, no payments in respect of any Awards that are “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code and which would otherwise be payable upon the Participant’s “separation from service” (as defined in Section 409A of the Code) shall be made to such Participant prior to the date that is six (6) months after the date of such Participant’s “separation from service” or, if earlier, the date of the Participant’s death. Following any applicable six (6) month delay, all such delayed payments will be paid in a single lump sum on the earliest date permitted under Section 409A of the Code that is also a business day.

(iii) Unless otherwise provided by the Committee in an Award Agreement or otherwise, in the event that the timing of payments in respect of any Award (that would otherwise be considered “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code) would be accelerated upon the occurrence of (A) a Change in Control, no such acceleration shall be permitted unless the event giving rise to the Change in Control satisfies the definition of a change in the ownership or effective control of a corporation, or a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of a corporation pursuant to Section 409A of the Code; or (B) a Disability, no such acceleration shall be permitted unless the Disability also satisfies the definition of “Disability” pursuant to Section 409A of the Code.

(v) Clawback/Repayment. All Awards shall be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture or recoupment to the extent necessary to comply with (i) any clawback, forfeiture or other similar policy adopted by the Board or the Committee and as in effect from time to time; and (ii) applicable law. Further, to the extent that the Participant receives any amount in excess of the amount that the Participant should otherwise have received under the terms of the Award for any reason (including, without limitation, by reason of a financial restatement, mistake in calculations or other administrative error), the Participant may be required to repay any such excess amount to the Company.

(w) Right of Offset. The Company will have the right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock (or other property or cash) under the Plan or any Award Agreement any outstanding amounts (including, without limitation, travel and entertainment or advance account balances, loans, repayment obligations under any Awards, or amounts repayable to the Company pursuant to tax equalization, housing, automobile or other employee programs) that the Participant then owes to any member of the Company Group and any amounts the Committee otherwise deems appropriate pursuant to any tax equalization policy or agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Award is “deferred compensation” subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Committee will have no right to offset against its obligation to deliver shares of Common Stock (or other property or cash) under the Plan or any Award Agreement if such offset could subject the Participant to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A of the Code in respect of an outstanding Award.

(x) Expenses; Titles and Headings. The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company Group. The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only, and in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control.
