Dear Dave:

You informed Hyperfine, Inc. and its Board of Directors that you have decided to resign your employment as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a director on the Board of Directors of Hyperfine, with your resignations to be effective July 29, 2022 (the “Resignation Date”). On June 28, 2022, the Board of Directors accepted your resignations, to be effective at the close of business on the Resignation Date.

On the Resignation Date, Hyperfine will pay your base salary earned through July 29, 2022, less applicable withholdings. You will continue to be eligible to participate in the company’s 401(k) plan through the Resignation Date and in the company’s group welfare plans through July 31, 2022. Thereafter, you will be eligible to continue your and your eligible dependents’ group health coverage pursuant to COBRA at your own cost, provided that you timely elect to continue the coverage. You will receive a separate mailing with the required election form and with details about your and your eligible dependents’ rights under COBRA and the cost of continuing coverage.

Pursuant to the terms of the Restricted Stock Unit Award Grant Notice and Agreement dated April 4, 2022 issued to you by Hyperfine under its 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), you will continue to receive payment of the 649,350 RSU’s awarded to you in accordance with the schedule set forth in the grant notice. All other equity awards issued to you will cease to vest as of the Resignation Date and all then unvested RSU’s and options will be immediately forfeited. Your rights with respect to any vested options will be determined in accordance with the Plan and the applicable award agreement.

Please submit any requests for reimbursement of business expenses and any evidence documenting those expenses no later than ten business days following the Resignation Date. Hyperfine will reimburse you for those expenses promptly in accordance with its expense reimbursement policies.
