Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers
(c)
On October 30, 2025, the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) appointed Indrajit Ponnambalam as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, effective as of December 1, 2025 (the “Effective Date”).
Mr. Ponnambalam, age 52, previously served as Chief Financial Officer at Premion, a connected TV advertising platform serving regional and local advertisers, from October 2024 until October 2025, and was a consultant at Pieces Technologies, a healthcare AI research and development firm, from April 2024 until November 2024. He was a Strategic Financial Advisor for Fanatics Collectibles, a global digital sports platform, from July 2022 until August 2023. From May 2021 until February 2022, he was the Chief Administrative Officer and SVP, Finance of Match Group, an internet and technology company, and served as its Senior Vice President of Finance from January 2017 until April 2021. Mr. Ponnambalam earned a B.S. in Finance and Accounting from the McDonough School of Business at Georgetown University and an M.B.A. from the Kenan-Flagler Business School at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Ponnambalam and any other persons, pursuant to which Mr. Ponnambalam was selected as an officer, no family relationships among any of the Company’s directors or executive officers and Mr. Ponnambalam, and Mr. Ponnambalam does not have any direct or indirect material interest in any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
In connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Ponnambalam and the Company entered into an Offer Letter dated October 31, 2025 (the “Offer Letter”). Pursuant to the Offer Letter, commencing on the Effective Date, Mr. Ponnambalam will receive an initial annual base salary of $550,000 and will be eligible to participate in Company-sponsored benefits to the extent he is eligible pursuant to the terms of the Company’s benefit plans. In addition, Mr. Ponnambalam will be granted a restricted stock unit award covering approximately $3.2 million of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “RSUs”), which will vest quarterly over a four year period. The vesting of the RSUs is subject to Mr. Ponnambalam’s continuous employment with the Company as Chief Financial Officer and other customary provisions to be set forth in an award agreement pursuant to the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).
Mr. Ponnambalam will also be granted a performance stock unit award covering $3 million of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “PSUs,” and together with the RSUs, the “Equity Awards”). The PSUs will be subject to performance-based vesting pursuant to terms to be set by the compensation
committee of the Board, consistent with the terms applicable to other members of the Company’s executive team and to be set forth in an award agreement pursuant to the Plan. The number of shares subject to the Equity Awards will be determined by dividing the aggregate value of each award by the average of the closing sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock in the calendar month immediately preceding the first of the month in which the Effective Date occurs and the calendar month in which the Effective Date occurs. The Equity Awards will be granted pursuant to and in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Plan, which was previously filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
Mr. Ponnambalam has also entered into the Company’s standard form of Indemnity Agreement and Change in Control and Severance Agreement. The forms of the Indemnity Agreement and Change in Control and Severance Agreement were previously filed by the Company as Exhibits 10.6 and 10.11, respectively, to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on November 12, 2021, and are incorporated by reference herein.
The foregoing description of the Offer Letter is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Offer Letter, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ending December 31, 2025.
