New
Form of Award Agreements
On
June 12, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), the Compensation Committee of the Board
of Directors (the “Board”) of Latch, Inc. (the “Company”) adopted an updated form of restricted stock unit grant
notice and agreement (the “RSU Agreement”), an updated form of stock option grant notice and agreement (the “Stock Option
Agreement”), and a new form of common stock grant notice and agreement (the “Common Stock Agreement”) (collectively,
the “Award Agreements”) under the Company’s 2021 Incentive Award Plan (the “2021 Plan”). These forms may
be used for equity awards granted to the Company’s executive officers, including its named executive officers, and constitute material
compensatory plans or arrangements within the meaning of Item 5.02(e) of Form 8-K.
The
RSU Agreement and the Stock Option Agreement provide for the grant of restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and stock options, respectively,
of the Company that may be subject to vesting over time. The vesting of the RSUs and stock options is subject to the grantee’s continued
employment or service through the vesting date of such equity awards.
The
RSU Agreement and Stock Option Agreement permit the Compensation Committee or the Board to designate a vesting commencement date that
precedes the grant date for purposes of calculating vesting, while maintaining the actual grant date for all other purposes, including
determining fair market value.
The
Award Agreements set forth the terms and conditions applicable to equity awards granted under the 2021 Plan, including vesting conditions,
exercisability, settlement, forfeiture, transfer restrictions, and related rights and obligations of the award recipients. In addition,
the RSU Agreement and the Stock Option Agreement include the following modifications to the prior forms adopted by the Board:
| · | The timing and mechanics of settlement of the awards are revised and intended to comply with
the short-term deferral exemption under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code permitting the Company to delay settlement or delivery
of shares where necessary to comply with applicable law, securities law requirements or stock exchange listing standards; |
| · | Expanded permitted methods to satisfy applicable tax withholding obligations, including net
share withholding and other Company-approved methods permitted under the 2021 Plan; and |
| · | Additional administrative procedures relating to the settlement of awards following a participant’s
termination of service. |
The RSU Agreement and the Stock
Option Agreement also include various administrative, clarifying, and conforming revisions. Copies of the RSU Agreement, the Stock Option
Agreement, and the Common Stock Agreement are filed as Exhibits 10.1, 10.2, and 10.3, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K
and are incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Award Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified
in its entirety by reference to such exhibits. Except as expressly described above, the 2021 Plan remains unchanged and in full force
and effect. The Award Agreements are subject to the terms and conditions of the 2021 Plan, which was previously filed as Exhibit 10.4
to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 31, 2025, and is incorporated
herein by reference.
RSU
Grants to Executives
On
June 12, 2026, the Compensation Committee of the Board approved grants of time-based restricted
stock units under the Company’s 2021 Plan to Dave Lillis, the Company’s Principal Executive Officer, Jeff Mayfield, the Company’s
Principal Financial Officer, and Ryan Salmons, the Company’s Chief Product and Technology Officer. These individuals are executive
officers of the Company, and the awards therefore constitute material compensatory arrangements reportable under Item 5.02(e) of Form
8-K.
Mr.
Lillis, Mr. Mayfield, and Mr. Salmons were granted 968,179, 130,000, and 500,000 RSUs, respectively (the “Executive
RSUs”). The grant-date fair values of the awards for Mr. Lillis, Mr. Mayfield, and Mr. Salmons were approximately $193,636,
$26,000, and $100,000, respectively, based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the grant date. For vesting
purposes only, Mr. Lillis’ RSU award has a vesting commencement date of July 13, 2023 and 887,497 shares of his award were
vested as of the grant date; Mr. Mayfield’s RSU award has a vesting commencement date of September 5, 2023 and 119,167 shares
of his award were vested as of the grant date; and Mr. Salmons’ RSU award has a vesting commencement date of December 31, 2024
and 208,333 shares of his award were vested as of the grant date. However, the grant date for the Executive RSUs is used for all
other purposes, including determining fair market value. The Compensation Committee approved these vesting commencement dates to
reflect service provided by each executive following such executive’s hire or promotion, during which period the Company was
unable to grant equity awards because its registration statement on Form S-8 was suspended. As a result of this vesting structure,
as noted above, a portion of each executive’s Executive RSUs vested on the grant date, representing the amount that would have
vested between the applicable vesting commencement date and the grant date if the award had been granted on the vesting commencement
date. The remaining portion of each executive’s Executive RSUs will vest in substantially equal quarterly installments over
the remainder of a three-year vesting period, subject to the executive’s continued service through each applicable vesting
date.
The
Executive RSUs were granted pursuant to the 2021 Plan and the RSU Agreement. Copies of the RSU Agreements for Mr. Lillis, Mr. Mayfield,
and Mr. Salmons are filed as Exhibits 10.4, 10.5, and 10.6, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated herein
by reference. The foregoing description of the Executive RSUs does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference
to such exhibits.
