Equity awards are payments to employees or directors made in the form of company stock or rights to buy stock later, serving as a way to share ownership rather than cash. For investors, they matter because they align staff incentives with company performance, can increase the number of shares outstanding over time (which can reduce each share’s claim on profits), and create compensation costs that affect reported earnings.

"continue to vest during the Consulting Term in accordance with their existing vesting schedules"
service provider financial
"provided that he remains as a service provider to the Company"
