Insights

New independent director added with standard cash and equity compensation; modest governance enhancement, limited direct near-term business or financial impact.

VisionWave Holdings, Inc. appointed Judit Nagypal as an independent director effective November 26, 2025. She meets independence standards of both Nasdaq and the SEC, which supports board oversight and listing compliance. The engagement terms follow the company’s existing Independent Director Compensation Policy adopted on July 29, 2025, so this move extends an established framework rather than changing it.

The Agreement provides an annual cash retainer of $36,000 plus possible additional cash fees of $10,000 for serving as Audit Committee Chair and $5,000 each for Compensation and Governance Committee Chairs, if applicable. She also receives an annual restricted stock grant valued at $60,000 under the 2024 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan, vesting in full after twelve months of continuous service, with accelerated vesting upon Change in Control, death, or disability. This mix of cash and equity aligns director incentives with long-term company performance while remaining moderate in scale.

The filing confirms there are no special arrangements, related-party transactions, or family relationships connected to her appointment, which supports clean independence. A copy of the Independent Director Engagement Agreement is referenced as Exhibit 10.1. Items to watch over the next 12–18 months include any committee assignments she may receive and whether the board composition or compensation policy changes further as the company develops.
