RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT UNDER THE AWARE, INC. 2023 EQUITY AND INCENTIVE PLAN

Restrictions on Transfer of Award. This Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of by the Grantee, and any shares of Stock issuable with respect to the Award may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise encumbered or disposed of until shares of Stock have been issued to the Grantee in accordance with the terms of the Plan and this Agreement with respect to Restricted Stock Units that have vested as provided in Section 2 of this Agreement.

Vesting of Restricted Stock Units. Restricted Stock Units will vest on the Vesting Date or Dates specified in the following schedule, and in the amounts set forth on such schedule, so long as the Grantee remains in a Service Relationship (as defined in the Plan) through the relevant Vesting Date.

Termination of Service Relationship. If the Grantee’s Service Relationship terminates for any reason (including death or disability) prior to the satisfaction of the vesting conditions set forth in Section 2 above, any Restricted Stock Units that have not vested as of such date shall automatically and without notice terminate and be forfeited, and neither the Grantee nor any of Grantee’s successors, heirs, assigns, or personal representatives will thereafter have any further rights or interests in such unvested Restricted Stock Units.

Issuance of Shares of Stock. As soon as practicable following each Vesting Date (but in no event later than two and one-half months after the end of the year in which the Vesting Date occurs), the Company shall issue to the Grantee the number of shares of Stock equal to the

aggregate number of Restricted Stock Units that have vested pursuant to Section 2 of this Agreement on such date and the Grantee shall thereafter have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to such shares.

No Rights as a Stockholder. The Grantee shall not have any right in, or with respect to, any of the shares of Stock issuable under this Award unless and until Restricted Stock Units vest and shares of Stock are issued to the Grantee pursuant to Section 4 above.

Incorporation of Plan. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement shall be subject to and governed by all the terms and conditions of the Plan, including the powers of the Administrator set forth in Section 3(b) of the Plan. In the event of any conflict between the terms hereof and those of the Plan, the latter shall prevail. Capitalized terms in this Agreement shall have the meaning specified in the Plan, unless a different meaning is specified herein.

Tax Withholding. The Grantee shall, not later than the date as of which the receipt of this Award becomes a taxable event for Federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company or make arrangements satisfactory to the Administrator for payment of any Federal, state, and local taxes required by law to be withheld on account of such taxable event. The Company shall have the authority to cause any required tax withholding obligation to be satisfied, in whole or in part, by (i) withholding from shares of Stock to be issued to the Grantee a number of shares of Stock with an aggregate Fair Market Value that would satisfy the withholding amount due; or (ii) causing its transfer agent to sell from the number of shares of Stock to be issued to the Grantee, the number of shares of Stock necessary to satisfy the Federal, state and local taxes required by law to be withheld from the Grantee on account of such taxable event.

Section 409A of the Code. This Agreement shall be interpreted in such a manner that all provisions relating to the settlement of the Award are exempt from the requirements of Section 409A of the Code as “short-term deferrals” as described in Section 409A of the Code.

No Obligation to Continue Service Relationship. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary is obligated by or as a result of the Plan or this Agreement to continue the Grantee’s Service Relationship with the Company or a Subsidiary, and neither the Plan nor this Agreement shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary to terminate the Grantee’s Service Relationship at any time.

Integration. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to this Award and supersede all prior agreements and discussions between the parties concerning this Award.

Data Privacy Consent. In order to administer the Plan and this Agreement and to implement or structure future equity grants, the Company, its subsidiaries and affiliates and certain agents thereof (together, the “Relevant Companies”) may process any and all personal or professional data, including but not limited to Social Security or other identification number, home address and telephone number, date of birth and other information that is necessary or
