The stock option awards have an exercise price of $5.21, equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date of grant. Each option has a 10-year term and vests over 4 years, with 25% of the shares vesting one year after the relevant employee’s date of hire, and the balance of the shares vesting thereafter in a series of 36 successive equal monthly installments, subject to the relevant employee’s continued service with the Company through the applicable vesting dates. Each restricted stock award granted will vest in 3 equal annual installments, with the first installment vesting on the first anniversary of the relevant employee’s date of hire, subject to their continued service with the Company. These awards are subject to the terms and conditions of Evofem Biosciences’ 2018 Inducement Equity Incentive Plan (as amended), and the terms and conditions of non-qualifed stock option awards and restricted stock award agreements. The Inducement Plan is used exclusively for the grant of equity awards to individuals who were not previously employed by Evofem (or following a bona fide period of non-employment), as an inducement material to the employees’ acceptance of employment with the Company, pursuant to NASDAQ Listing Rule 5635(c)(4).
