4.Termination of Employment.

a.Your employment with the Company is not for a guaranteed or definite period of time. Rather, the employment relationship is “at will.” This means that you may terminate your employment with the Company at any time and for any reason whatsoever simply by notifying the Company. Likewise, the Company may terminate your employment at any time and for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause (as defined below) or advance notice.

b.If (i) the Company terminates your employment at any time with Cause (as defined below), (ii) your employment terminates as a result of your death, or (iii) you voluntarily resign from your employment with the Company other than for Good Reason (as defined below), you will be entitled to your base salary accrued through your date of termination of employment, such employee benefits you may be entitled to under the employee benefit plans or programs of the Company and its affiliates, paid in accordance with the terms of the applicable plans or programs, and any expense reimbursement due to you for expenses reasonably incurred by you before the date of your termination of employment. [For executives who are members of the Board: Additionally, if requested, you will be required to tender your resignation as a member of the Board.]

(as defined below), then, subject to your execution of a release of claims in favor of the Company in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A, which release becomes effective in accordance with its terms on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following your termination of employment, then you shall be entitled to:

(x) a lump sum payment equal to the sum of [________ (__)] months of your base salary plus [____] years of your target bonus (both at the rate in effect on your termination of employment), together with any base salary accrued through your termination date payable on the thirtieth (30th) day following such termination of employment,

(y) at your election, either a lump sum payment equal to the value of [________ (__)] months of COBRA coverage payable on the thirtieth (30th) day following your termination of employment or direct payment of your premiums for health care continuation coverage under the applicable provisions of COBRA, provided that you elect to continue and remain eligible for these benefits under COBRA, and do not become covered through another employer’s health plan during this period, and provided further the election as to lump sum payment or direct payments of COBRA premiums pursuant to this subsection (x) must be made at the time of termination,

(z) [________ (__)] months accelerated vesting of all outstanding equity awards (including, without limitation, restricted stock units, stock options, performance based awards, stock price target based awards, and earn-out milestone shares pursuant to the Company’s Master Transactions Agreement dated December 14, 2020 as amended on May 3 , 2021) that you received from the Company prior to such termination of employment, provided that with respect to (i) any outstanding awards subject to performance-based vesting (including, without limitation, performance based awards, stock price target based awards, and earn-out milestone shares pursuant to the Company’s Master Transactions Agreement dated December 14, 2020 as amended on May 3 , 2021) for which the number of earned awards has not been determined as of the date of termination, the number of performance-based awards that will become earned for purposes of vesting shall be equal to the target number of shares subject to the award, and (ii) any awards that are subject to time-based vesting (including any performance-based awards for which the performance conditions have already been satisfied) on one or more anniversaries of the date of grant, solely for purposes of determining the number of earned awards that shall vest upon termination, the time-based awards shall be treated as instead being subject to monthly vesting in equal installments from the applicable date of grant and you shall become vested in that number of earned awards that would have vested during the period commencing from the date of grant and continuing up to your termination date and during an additional [________ (__)] month period following your termination date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 4(c), if termination of employment occurs within ninety (90) days prior to, or two years following, the consummation of a Change of Control (as such term is defined below), (1) the lump sum payment in (w), above, shall be increased to [________ (__)] months of your base salary plus [____] years of your target bonus; (2) you shall receive 100% accelerated vesting of all of your equity awards (including, without limitation, restricted stock units, stock options, performance based awards, stock price target based awards, and earn-out milestone shares pursuant to the Company’s Master Transactions Agreement dated December 14, 2020 as amended on May 3 , 2021), that are unvested and outstanding as of your termination of employment and which would otherwise become vested based solely on the passage of time and performance of services (and not in whole or in part on the future attainment of performance targets); (3) unless otherwise specified in a specific grant agreement, any equity awards (including, without limitation, performance based awards, stock price target based awards, and earn-out milestone shares pursuant to the Company’s Master Transactions Agreement dated December 14, 2020 as amended on May 3 , 2021) held by you at the time of your termination of employment the earning or vesting of which is dependent in whole or in part on the attainment of performance targets shall become vested with respect to the greater of (A) 100% of the target number of shares subject to the award and (B)

the number of shares subject to the award that would be earned based on actual performance through the time of your termination of employment; (4) for the avoidance of doubt, you will remain eligible for the lump sum payment or direct payment of continuation coverage for a period of eighteen (18) months under COBRA, in accordance with (y), above and (5) you shall be paid a pro rata portion of your bonus for the fiscal year of such termination of employment, payable at the same time the Company pays annual bonuses to other executive officers for such fiscal year (but no later than two and a half (2 ½) months after the fiscal year in which the termination date occurs) based on (i) your termination date, (ii) the determination by the Compensation Committee whether company performance objectives have been met, and (iii) an assumption that any individual performance metrics have been achieved at 100%. [For executives who are members of the Board: Additionally, if requested, you will be required to tender your resignation as a member of the Board.]

For purposes of this Agreement, Change of Control shall have the same meaning as in the Company’s 2021 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.

d. Your employment will be deemed to be terminated for “Good Reason” if you voluntarily terminate your employment within six (6) months following the first occurrence of any of the following conditions: (i) a reduction of $25,000 or more in your base compensation or your target bonus opportunity; (ii) a material change in your title, authority, duties or responsibilities; (iii) a material breach by the Company of this agreement or any other agreement you are party to with the Company; or (iv) [a relocation of the Company’s headquarters outside of the Orange County, California area; or for remote employees: a relocation to an office 30 miles outside your current location]; provided that you have given written notice to the Board of the first to occur of any of the foregoing events within ninety (90) days following the first occurrence of such event and the Company has failed to remedy the event within thirty (30) days of such notice. Should you elect to voluntarily terminate your employment for any other reason, such termination will not constitute Good Reason and you will not be entitled to any severance or additional vesting.

e.Your employment shall be deemed to be terminated for “Cause” only if you have engaged in (i) continued neglect of or willful failure in the performance of your duties, which, if curable, continues for a period of twenty (20) days following written notice by the Company; (ii) a material breach of the Company’s Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement, (iii) a material breach of the Company’s Code of Conduct or other Company policies, which, if curable, continues for a period of twenty (20) days following written notice by the Company; (iv) fraud against or embezzlement or material misappropriation from the Company or its affiliates; (v) conviction of, or entering a plea of no contest or nolocontendere to a charge of, a crime constituting a felony; (vi) willful malfeasance or willful misconduct in connection with your duties, which, if curable, continues for a period of twenty (20) days following written notice by the Company; or (vii) any willful and wrongful act or omission which is materially injurious to the financial condition or business reputation of the Company and its subsidiaries, which, if curable, continues for a period of twenty (20) days following written notice by the Company.

f.“Disability” means (i) you have been incapacitated by bodily injury, illness or disease so as to be prevented thereby from engaging in the performance of your duties (provided, however, that the Company acknowledges its obligations to provide reasonable accommodation to the extent required by applicable law); (ii) such total incapacity shall have continued for a period of twelve (12) consecutive months or twelve (12) non-consecutive months in any eighteen (18) month period; and (iii) such incapacity will, in the opinion of a qualified physician, be permanent and continuous during the remainder of your life.

g.In the event that it is determined that payments pursuant to this Agreement constitute non-qualified deferred compensation subject to Section 409A, then, solely to the extent required in order to avoid taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A (i) no such amounts shall be paid unless and until you have experienced a separation from service within the meaning of Section 409A and (ii) if you are deemed to be a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A, any such amount that would be paid to you within six (6) months following your separation of service shall be accumulated

and paid to you on the first business day following such six (6) month period, provided that in the event of your death following your separation from service, but prior to the six-month anniversary of your separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this Section 4(g) will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of your death and all other payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each installment of the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement shall be treated as a separate payment for purposes of 26 C.F.R. 1.409A-2(b)(2)(i). With respect to expenses eligible for reimbursement under the terms of this Agreement: (i) the amount of such expenses eligible for reimbursement in any taxable year shall not affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement in another taxable year; (ii) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit; and (iii) any reimbursements of such expenses shall be made no later than the end of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the related expenses were incurred, except, in each case, to the extent that the right to reimbursement does not provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A. The parties hereto intend that this Agreement comply, to the extent applicable, with the provisions of Section 409A and related regulations and Treasury pronouncements. If the parties determine in good faith that any provision provided herein would result in the imposition of an excise tax under the provisions of Section 409A, the parties hereby agree to use good faith efforts to reform any such provision to avoid imposition of any such excise tax in such manner that the parties mutually determine is appropriate to comply with Section 409A.

h.If your severance and other benefits provided for in this Section 4 constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Code and, but for this subsection, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, then your severance and other benefits under this Section 4 will be payable, either in full or in such lesser amount as would result, after taking into account the applicable federal, state and local income taxes and the excise tax imposed by Section 4999, in your receipt on an after-tax basis of the greatest amount of severance and other benefits. Unless the Company and you otherwise agree in writing, any determination required under this Section 4 shall be made in writing in good faith by the accounting firm serving as the Company’s independent public accountants immediately prior to the Change of Control (the “Accountants”). For purposes of making the calculations required by this Section 4, the Accountants may make reasonable assumptions and approximations concerning applicable taxes and may rely on reasonable, good faith interpretations concerning the application of Sections 280G and 4999 of the Code. The Company and you shall furnish to the Accountants such information and documents as the Accountants may reasonably request in order to make a determination under this Section 4. If the Accountants determine that reduction of your severance benefits is required by this Section 4 such that no portion of your severance benefits will be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code, the severance benefits shall be reduced in the following order: (i) cash severance pay that is exempt from Section 409A, (ii) any other cash severance pay, (iii) any other cash payable that is a severance benefit other than stock appreciation rights, (iv) any stock appreciation rights, (v) any restricted stock and/or restricted stock units, and (vi) stock options. The Company shall bear all costs the Accountants may reasonably incur in connection with any calculations contemplated by this Section 4.

i.No payments due you hereunder shall be subject to mitigation or offset, except as set forth herein.
