Summary of the Case 1. 2 On May 9, 2019, Uber issued 180 million shares of common stock to the investing 3 public (Uber’s “IPO”), raising $8 billion at $45.00 per share. The IPO caused 75 million restricted 4 stock units owed to employees and contractors to vest, issuable in shares of common stock six 5 months later. Rather than issue that stock six months later—as Uber’s contracts required—Uber 6 issued that stock on the IPO date, fixing the resulting $3.4 billion compensation expense line item 7 for the benefit of its stock price and eliminating the risk that the stock could be more valuable six 8 months later with a resulting larger compensation expense on Uber’s books. Uber hoped its stock 9 price would in fact be higher six months later so that employees would not be hurt. 2. 10 Instead—as Uber knew was more likely—Uber’s stock declined 40% from the IPO 11 price of $45 to $27 a share six months later when, after the expiration of the “lock up” period, 12 employees were at last legally entitled sell their shares. Because of Uber’s unilateral decision in 13 breach of its agreements, employees were taxed on the $45 per share IPO share value (the price 14 when they received their shares), but could realize only $27 of actual value per share (the price 15 when they should have received their shares, and when they were legally able to sell their shares). 3. 16 If Uber had complied with its restricted stock unit agreements then the Plaintiffs 17 would have received and been taxed on $27 instead of $45, and would have owed much less 18 income tax. Plaintiffs seek compensation for the difference between their after-tax positions and 19 what their after-tax positions would have been without Uber’s self-serving disregard for its 20 contractual obligations and the best interests of RSU holders. Plaintiffs are just a few of the 21 estimated 15,000 or so Uber employees and contractors affected. Their total direct financial losses 22 in the form of additional income tax due are estimated to exceed $9 million. Plaintiffs’ counsel 23 represents numerous additional Plaintiffs and will amend this complaint, or file additional related 24 actions, in the near future. 25 2. 26 27 Introduction 4. To recruit and retain talent, Uber entered into restricted stock unit agreements (“RSU Agreements”) with thousands of employees and various consultants pursuant to its 2013 28 Page 4 COMPLAINT 1 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). Per the vesting provisions of these RSU Agreements, and the 2 Plan, when Uber went public it became obligated to issue common shares to holders of about 75 3 million restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) granted under the Plan (the “Class”), i.e., to deliver 75 4 million shares of Uber common stock (the “RSU Shares”). 5 5. Under the Plan, all RSUs had two vesting requirements: (i) the passage of time and 6 (ii) the occurrence of a liquidity event like Uber’s IPO. The RSUs that had met the time vesting 7 requirement as of May 9, 2019 thus became fully vested upon Uber’s May 9, 2019 IPO (the 8 “Vesting Date” or “IPO date”). 9 6. Plaintiffs’ RSU Agreements specified that if their Vesting Date occurred as a result 10 of an IPO, Uber “shall” issues their shares of Uber common stock on the earlier of (i) six calendar 11 months after the Vesting Date or (ii) March 15th of the next calendar year (the “Settlement Date”). 12 Calculating from the May 9, 2019 IPO date, six calendar months was sooner than March 15, 2020, 13 so the Settlement Date for the Plaintiffs’ RSU Shares was November 9, 2019 per the express 14 written terms of the Plaintiffs’ respective RSU Agreements. 15 16 17 7. All RSU Shares were subject to a “lock up” obligation prohibiting sales during the 180-day period following the IPO (the “Lock-up Period”). 8. Three days before the IPO, Uber published and distributed a memorandum (the 18 “May 6 Memo”) notifying RSU holders that Uber had unilaterally decided to accelerate the 19 Settlement Date to the IPO date (the “Acceleration”). The Acceleration benefitted Uber by 20 eliminating the risk that the share price could rise over the next six months requiring Uber to book 21 a greater compensation expense (the value of the delivered shares was in all events a 22 compensation expense for Uber) and ultimately post inferior financial results. Eliminating that risk 23 increased the IPO price. But the Acceleration risked dramatically increasing—and ultimately 24 dramatically increased—the Plaintiffs’ income tax liability, in breach of the RSU Agreements. 25 9. The RSU Agreements provided that, subject to certain exceptions (the “Permitted 26 Modifications”), “no modification of or amendment to this RSU Agreement that materially and 27 adversely affects the rights of Participant shall be effective unless agreed to in writing by the 28 parties to this RSU Agreement.” The May 6 Memo did not cite any of the Permitted Modifications Page 5 COMPLAINT 1 provisions of the RSU Agreements as reasons for the Acceleration. No facts constituting a basis 2 for a Permitted Modification existed at the time. Plaintiffs did not agree to the Acceleration 3 explicitly, implicitly, orally, in writing, or at all. 4 10. Uber’s May 6 Memo says Uber “determined that it is in the best interests of the 5 RSU holders, as well as in the best interests of the Company,” to implement the Acceleration. 6 Uber was hoping that the market price of its shares would increase following the IPO. If it had, the 7 Acceleration would benefit the RSU holders and Uber both. But that was at best a highly uncertain 8 and risky bet at the time of the Acceleration. Uber knew that if the stock price was lower six 9 months after the IPO—as was probable here—the Acceleration would mean RSU holders would 10 owe more income tax, perhaps dramatically more income tax, than they would without the 11 Acceleration. The Acceleration created the possibility that a Plaintiff could owe more in income 12 tax than he or she could realize from the sale of his or her RSU shares. 13 11. The May 6 Memo omitted and concealed Uber’s true motives, and failed to 14 disclose the risks that the Acceleration imposed on the RSU holders. The Acceleration was 15 implemented in the best interests of Uber. Based upon historical market data concerning analogous 16 IPOs, and risks in Uber’s own business model, all of which Uber knew, a stock price drop from 17 the IPO date to the end of the Lock-up Period was probable. And a scenario became possible 18 where, in fact, RSU holders owed more tax than they could realize by selling their RSU Shares. 19 The Acceleration therefore was at all times contrary to the best interests of all RSU holders, and 20 Uber knew that. RSU holders were not asked to agree to the Acceleration and did not agree to it. 21 Had RSU holders been afforded the opportunity to agree or disagree, and had they been informed 22 of the facts, risks, and benefits, they would not have agreed to the Acceleration. 23 12. The fair value of Plaintiffs’ RSU Shares became taxable to them as ordinary 24 income on the unilaterally revised Settlement Date of the IPO, at the IPO stock price of $45 per 25 RSU. When the Lock-up Period expired, the market value of Uber common stock had declined 26 40% from the IPO price of $45, to $27 per share. 27 28 13. The Acceleration of the Settlement Date for 75 million RSU Shares resulted in aggregate ordinary income to all holders of then-vested RSUs of about $3.4 billion at the IPO Page 6 COMPLAINT 1 price of $45, rather than ordinary income of about $2.0 billion at the lock-up-period-end-date 2 share price of $27, when the shares should have been delivered per the terms of the contracts. The 3 Acceleration therefore cost RSU holders a few hundred million dollars in additional income tax. 14. 4 RSU holders’ resulting decrease in after-tax net income from receiving RSU shares 5 would have been this full amount but for Uber’s withholding of a portion of the deliverable shares 6 at $45 each to pay income tax withholding, which partially covered this loss. Plaintiffs 7 nevertheless have suffered an estimated total of more than $9 million in out-of-pocket financial 8 losses in the form of additional income tax liabilities incurred. 9 3. 10 Uber Accelerated the Settlement Date to Fix and Hopefully Lower Its Compensation Expense, for the Benefit of its Stock Price. 11 15. IPO underwriters are always concerned with whether a company’s “overhang” will 12 negatively impact the market price of the stock. “Overhang” means a large block of shares that, if 13 they hit the market all at once, could oversupply the market, driving down the stock price. Shares 14 issuable under equity compensation plans are of particular concern, because once employees are 15 liable for tax on the shares, they tend to immediately sell into the market to cover their tax liability 16 and diversify their holdings, in their personal best interests. Uber’s Acceleration precluded RSU 17 holders from doing this, in breach of the RSU Agreements. 18 19 16. Methods that IPO underwriters and issuers use to mitigate the risk of overhang include: 20 • 21 • 22 • Requiring a post-IPO lock-up obligation, to prevent overhang shares from flooding the market upon the IPO. Limiting the total number of shares the company has authorized for issuance under equity compensation plans (a 5% cap is typical). Using net issuance as a tool to reduce the number of shares in the overhang. 23 24 25 26 27 28 17. Uber and its underwriters used all 3 methods. For RSU holders receiving more than $1,000,000 in shares, Uber reportedly withheld 37% of the shares at issuance to cover some of the tax liability, delivering only the remaining 63%. Uber reportedly withheld at lower rates for RSU holders receiving fewer shares. In either case, however, Uber did not net out enough shares to cover the full tax liability, which would have further decreased the overhang and avoided the taxPage 7 COMPLAINT 1 losses the Acceleration imposed RSU holders, because Uber didn’t want to use its cash to pay all 2 that income tax withholding itself. Uber instead gambled that the stock price would go up and 3 RSU holders would have nothing to complain about. 18. 4 Net issuance was cited by Uber in the May 6 Memo as one of the reasons for the 5 Acceleration, but one has nothing to do with the other. Absent the Acceleration, net issuance was 6 permitted and made the same sense to mitigate overhang. 19. 7 The stock market does not reward uncertainty. Riskier shares sell for less. The 8 Acceleration fixed Uber’s compensation expense by incurring it as of the IPO date at a known 9 cost, rather than setting it up to be incurred six months later at an unknown cost, depending on the 10 price of the stock. The Acceleration eliminated the possibility that Uber’s compensation expense 11 from the RSUs could, for example, double along with its stock price in the six months post IPO. 12 Seeking to lock in the compensation expense associated with the RSUs, Uber eliminated 13 uncertainty and thereby presumably increased its stock price as of the IPO date, maximizing the 14 cash raised in its IPO. Uber was betting that its stock price would increase following the IPO. RSU 15 holders would have nothing to complain about if the stock price increased—in that instance, the 16 Acceleration would have lowered Plaintiffs’ taxes. 20. 17 But this outcome was unlikely. Stock prices are, on average, lower six months after 18 the IPO date, because of the overhang, if for no other reasons. Lyft—the most analogous IPO to 19 Uber’s—went public shortly before Uber and had seen a substantial drop in its stock price by the 20 time Uber announced the Acceleration. Predictably, Uber’s stock price fell by 40% during the 21 Lock-up Period. Uber and its Acceleration thus imposed greatly increased tax liability on the RSU 22 holders in violation of their RSU Agreements. 23 4. 24 25 26 27 Parties 21. Plaintiffs and each of them are individuals who are and/or were employed by Uber. As of the IPO, Plaintiffs each held numerous RSUs that became fully vested upon the occurrence of the May 9, 2019 IPO. More than two-thirds of the Plaintiffs currently reside in California. See Schedule 1 hereto, which is incorporated by this reference as though repeated here. 28 Page 8 COMPLAINT 1 2 3 22. Defendant Uber is a Delaware corporation with its principal place of business in San Francisco, California. 23. Uber's shares are listed and traded on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) 4 under the ticker "UBER." Uber’s 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and 5 Exchange Commission describes its business on page 1 as follows: We are a technology platform that uses a massive network, leading technology, operational excellence and product expertise to power movement from point A to point B. We develop and operate proprietary technology applications supporting a variety of offerings on our platform (“platform(s)” or “Platform(s)”). We connect consumers (“Rider(s)”) with independent providers of ride services (“Rides Driver(s)”) for ridesharing services, and connect consumers (“Eater(s)”) with restaurants (“Restaurant(s)”) and food delivery service providers (“Delivery People”) for meal preparation and delivery services. Riders and Eaters are collectively referred to as “end-user(s)” or “consumer(s).” Rides Drivers and Delivery People are collectively referred to as “Driver(s)”. We also connect consumers with public transportation networks, e-bikes, e-scooters and other personal mobility options. We use this same network, technology, operational excellence and product expertise to connect shippers with carriers in the freight industry. We are also developing technologies that will provide autonomous driving vehicle solutions to consumers, networks of vertical take-off and landing vehicles and new solutions to solve everyday problems. 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 Our technology is available in 69 countries around the world, principally in the United States (“U.S.”) and Canada, Latin America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Asia (excluding China and Southeast Asia). 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 24. Defendants DOES 1 – 50 are persons, firms or entities whose identities are not currently known to Plaintiffs, who therefore sue said defendants by these fictitious names. Each of DOES 1-50 is a joint tortfeasor, co-conspirator, agent, and/or aider and abettor of his, her, or its co-defendants, or is otherwise in some manner and degree legally responsible for the wrongs alleged here. Plaintiffs will amend this Complaint to allege the true names and capacities of these fictitiously named Defendants when ascertained. Plaintiffs are informed and believe that each fictitiously named Defendant is liable in some manner for the injuries and damages alleged by Plaintiff. 28 Page 9 COMPLAINT 1 5. Jurisdiction and Venue 25. 2 This Court has general subject matter jurisdiction over this matter. Plaintiffs’ 3 additional tax liability caused by Uber’s wrongful Acceleration totals millions of dollars. Plaintiffs 4 have additional direct and consequential damages, and are entitled to punitive damages. 26. 5 For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other proceedings brought to enforce this RSU Agreement, relating to it, or arising from it, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of San Francisco County, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this grant is made and/or to be performed. 6 7 8 9 10 11 The RSU Agreements provide that: 27. Venue is proper in this district under California Rule of Civil Procedure 395.5, as Uber’s principal place of business is in the City and County of San Francisco. 12 28. This action is not subject to removal to the United States District Court because 13 Uber is a resident of California as are more than two-thirds of the Plaintiffs, and because no 14 federal claims are asserted. 15 6. Allegations Common to All Causes of Action 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29. A true and correct copy of Uber’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan is attached as Exhibit “A” and incorporated as though repeated here. 30. The Equity Incentive Plan provides, among other things, as follows: 7. Lock-Up Agreement. In connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, Optionee hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering; provided, however, that, if during the last 17 days of the restricted period the Company issues an earnings release or material news or a material event relating to the Company occurs, or prior to the expiration of Page 10 COMPLAINT the restricted period the Company announces that it will release earnings results during the 16-day period beginning on the last day of the restricted period, then, upon the request of the managing underwriter, to the extent required by any FINRA rules, the restrictions imposed by this subsection (a) shall continue to apply until the end of the third trading day following the expiration of the 15-day period beginning on the issuance of the earnings release or the occurrence of the material news or material event. In no event will the restricted period extend beyond 216 days after the effective date of the registration statement. 1 2 3 4 5 6 .... 7 8(a). Governing Law. This Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of law. 8 9 10 11 31. The RSU Agreement form, as filed by Uber with the SEC as part of the 2013 12 Equity Incentive Plan, is found at page 45/50 of Exhibit “A”. Based on a review of Exhibit “A” 13 and the further investigation of Counsel, Plaintiffs presently are informed and believe that each of 14 their respective Stock Unit Award Agreements (the “RSU Agreement”) provides substantially as 15 follows. 16 17 18 19 20 4. Issuance of Shares. The Company shall issue to Participant on the following date(s) a number of Shares equal to the aggregate number of Vested RSUs: (a) if the Vesting Date occurs as a result of an IPO, the Shares shall be issued on the earlier to occur of the date that is six months following the Vesting Date and March 15th of the year following the calendar year in which the Vesting Date occurred …. subject to the lock-up agreement described in Section 6 of this RSU Agreement. 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 6. Lock-Up Agreement. In addition to any other limitation on transfer or other restrictions set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement, in connection with an IPO and upon request of the Company or the underwriters managing any underwritten offering of the Company’s securities, Participant hereby agrees not to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired (other than those included in the registration) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for such period of time (not to exceed 180 days) from the effective date of such registration as may be requested by the Company or such managing underwriters and to execute an Page 11 COMPLAINT agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of the public offering …. 1 2 8. Code Section 409A. It is the intent that the RSUs shall be either exempt from or compliant with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and any successor Code, and related rules, regulations and interpretations, and the RSUs shall be interpreted, construed and operated to reflect this intent. Solely for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each issuance of Shares on (or following) a Vesting Date shall be considered a separate payment. The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify this RSU Agreement as may be necessary to ensure that the RSUs qualify for the exemption from, or comply with the requirements of, Section 409A or to mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A if compliance is not practical …. 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 16 13. (a) Governing Law, Venue. This RSU Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to such state's conflict of law principles. For purposes of any action, lawsuit or other proceedings brought to enforce this RSU Agreement, relating to it, or arising from it, the parties hereby submit to and consent to the sole and exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of San Francisco County, California, or the federal courts for the United States for the Northern District of California, and no other courts, where this grant is made and/or to be performed. 17 .... 18 13. (b) Entire Agreement; Modification; Enforcement of Rights. This RSU Agreement, together with the Notice and the Plan, sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties relating to the subject matter herein and therein and merges all prior discussions between the parties. Except as contemplated under the Plan, or except for any amendment or other action contemplated under Section 8 hereof or any other amendment or action that may be required or desirable to facilitate compliance with applicable law or to mitigate adverse accounting consequences, no modification of or amendment to this RSU Agreement that materially and adversely affects the rights of Participant shall be effective unless agreed to in writing by the parties to this RSU Agreement. The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. 11 12 13 14 15 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 (Emphasis added.) 27 32. Thus, the RSU Agreements permitted only three types of unilateral modifications 28 Page 12 COMPLAINT 1 by Uber: a. 2 Revenue Code § 409A tax consequences; 3 b. 4 c. 6 Amendments or actions required or desirable to mitigate adverse accounting consequences. 7 9 Amendments or actions required or desirable to facilitate compliance with applicable law; and 5 8 Amendments or modifications necessary to avoid or minimize any Internal 33. Uber’s May 6, 2019 memo explaining its reasons for the Acceleration neither cited nor fit within any of these criteria. Uber’s May 6, 2019 memo is attached as Exhibit “B” (without 10 adoption). 11 34. First, the May 6 Memo indicated that pursuant to the existing terms of the RSU 12 Agreements, Uber was electing to hold back a portion of the fully vested RSU Shares and pay the 13 withholding taxes on behalf of the employees from its own capital. This resulted in the net 14 issuance of 47.4 million shares of Uber common stock (rather than the 75 million shares 15 underlying all the RSUs) upon the IPO vesting and settlement of the RSUs (based on the initial 16 public offering price of $45.00 per share and the 37% tax withholding rate Uber assumed) (the 17 “Net Issuance”). Uber used more than $1.1 billion in proceeds from the IPO to pay the tax 18 withholdings. 19 35. The May 6 Memo said the Acceleration was to enable that Net Issuance—“to 20 reduce the amount of the outstanding shares flowing into the market, which could put downward 21 pressure on our stock price.” But Uber could have implemented the Net Issuance while 22 maintaining the Settlement Date specified in the RSU Agreements (November 9, 2019), with no 23 additional cost or work. Because the RSU Shares were subject to the Lock-up Period, the same 24 reduced number of RSU Shares from the Net Issuance could have hit the market at the essentially 25 the same time (November 9 versus November 6, 2019), with or without the Acceleration. And 26 Uber knew that. 27 28 36. Uber acknowledged in its Registration Statement the risk that “[f]uture sales of substantial amounts of our common stock, including shares issued on the exercise of outstanding Page 13 COMPLAINT 1 options or settlement of RSUs, in the public market after this offering, or the possibility of these 2 sales or issuances occurring, could adversely affect the prevailing market price for our common 3 stock or impair our ability to raise equity capital.” The Acceleration did not change this. 4 37. In fact, the average daily trading volume of Uber common stock between May 10 5 and November 5, 2019 was approximately 12.3 million shares. On November 6, 2019, the day the 6 Lock-up Period expired, the trading volume was 130 million shares. 7 38. Net Issuance did not enable the Acceleration. Uber lied when it said otherwise. 8 39. Uber’s second purported reason for the Acceleration, articulated in its May 6 9 Memo, was that it “locks in the amount of taxes the company would have to pay on behalf of 10 employees.” This was true, but did not entitle Uber to Accelerate. The May 6 Memo represented 11 that “[t]his is important to mitigate the risk that the company could be responsible for paying a 12 significantly higher amount in taxes if the stock price increases meaningfully after the IPO.” The 13 Net Issuance did mean that Uber had to use its cash to, in effect, buy the “netted out” shares from 14 the RSU holders, paying the purchase price of $45 per share to the applicable tax authorities on 15 their behalf. But Uber’s desire to limit the amount of its own capital required to pay the 16 employees’ resulting withholding taxes is not a permitted basis for modification under the RSU 17 Agreements. These are not Section 409 A issues. They are not legal compliance issues. And the 18 risk of a stock price increase that would increase the value of RSUs and the tax due upon their 19 settlement is not a mere “accounting consequence.” 20 40. Moreover, the Acceleration did not benefit RSU holders, was most likely not to, 21 and created a substantial risk of adverse, potentially devastating tax consequences for them. The 22 only way that the Acceleration could benefit RSU holders was if Uber’s bet paid off and the 23 market price of Uber common stock was higher than the IPO price on November 9, 2019 (the 24 original Settlement Date). Instead the price declined by 40% (and continued declining thereafter). 25 Uber knew the probability that RSU Holders would be hurt, but accelerated the Settlement Date 26 anyway because the most serious downside risks would be borne by the RSU holders. Notably, had 27 the price fallen far enough, RSU holders would have owed more in tax than their RSU Shares 28 could be sold for, resulting in a net loss from having received the shares. Page 14 COMPLAINT 1 41. Locking in the amount of taxes did not mitigate an adverse accounting 2 consequence. There was no existing adverse accounting consequence to mitigate. Uber was simply 3 speculating on the future price of its stock. 4 42. Third, the May 6 Memo stated that a reason for the Acceleration was that “[f]rom 5 an employee perspective, the accelerated settlement of RSUs may start the capital gains holding 6 period in some jurisdictions earlier than if the company waited until the end of the Lock-up Period 7 to settle the RSUs and issue shares.” 8 9 43. While the Acceleration would start the capital gains holding period in some jurisdictions, whether this would be beneficial to the employees of Uber was entirely speculative. 10 Uber was, once again, betting on its stock price as of November 9, 2019, with substantial 11 downside risk borne by the RSU holders, whom Uber gave no say in the matter, contrary to the 12 RSU Agreements. 13 44. The May 6 Memo further indicated that Acceleration “would also lock in the 14 amount of taxes owed on the RSUs at IPO in some jurisdictions, which may be beneficial if the 15 stock price increases post-IPO.” Again, Uber was speculating on its future stock price. 16 A. Uber Knew the Acceleration Was a Risky and Imprudent Bet with RSU Holders’ Money, but Did It Anyway 45. Uber knew the risk of the market price of its stock falling after the IPO. Their 17 18 closest competitor, Lyft, went public on March 26, 2019 (about six weeks before Uber) and had 19 experienced a 22% drop in value from its IPO price by mid-April. 20 46. 21 22 Moreover, at the time of the IPO Uber knew of, and failed to disclose, adverse facts concerning the company’s business model, passenger safety, and financial condition. As these adverse facts came to light in the six months following the IPO, the price of Uber’s common stock 23 declined approximately 40% from the IPO price of $45, to a price of $27.01 on November 9, 2019 24 (the original Settlement Date). Uber is currently defending a class action lawsuit on behalf of IPO 25 investors. 26 47. Market statistics also did not support the gamble that Uber took in unilaterally 27 accelerating the Settlement Date. Between 2000 and 2017, market data shows that six-month 28 Page 15 COMPLAINT 1 returns on IPOs are negative as compared to the IPO price. This is consistent with the sell-off that 2 is typical upon the expiration of an industry standard 180-day Lock-up Period. 3 B. Uber’s True Reasons for the Acceleration 4 48. The May 6 Memo actively concealed and misdirected RSU Holders from the true 5 reasons for Uber’s decision to implement the Acceleration, and falsely stated that the Acceleration 6 “was in the best interests of the RSU holders.” 7 49. On information and belief, the reason for Uber’s decision to bet on its future stock 8 price at the risk of the RSU holders was that Uber, possibly on the advice of its IPO underwriters, 9 determined it would benefit Uber’s stock price to lock down the compensation expense related to 10 the RSU Shares. This action removed significant uncertainty concerning 2019 net profits and 11 losses, and enabled the actual amount of the compensation expense to be built into the valuation of 12 the Company as of the IPO date. The approximately $3.4 billion in compensation expense that 13 Uber incurred in the quarter ending June 30, 2019 as a result of the Acceleration should not have 14 significantly adversely effected its stock price because that amount had been included in analysts’ 15 assumptions, as of the IPO date, based upon the Acceleration. 16 50. The Acceleration insured that if the market price of Uber’s stock increased 17 following the IPO, the resulting higher compensation expense associated with the original 18 November 9, 2019 Settlement Date would not adversely affect Uber’s 2019 operating results by 19 increasing its compensation expense. If the bet failed and the market price decreased, Uber would 20 nevertheless enjoy the benefits of an IPO price build on certainty of the compensation expense, 21 and retain the tax benefit of the higher compensation expense recorded at the IPO date, and RSU 22 holders would bear the downside risk of uncovered tax liability—ultimately, all the taxes due on 23 shares delivered in settlement of the RSU obligations were paid by RSU holders from the proceeds 24 of their Uber shares. 25 First Cause of Action Breach of Written Contract (By all Plaintiffs against All Defendants) 26 27 51. Plaintiffs incorporate all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 28 52. The RSUs awarded to each Plaintiff under the RSU Agreements became fully Page 16 COMPLAINT 1 vested upon Uber’s May 9, 2019 IPO (the Vesting Date). 53. 2 The RSU Agreements between Uber and each Plaintiff specify that Uber shall issue 3 the RSU shares on the earlier to occur of the date that is six months following the Vesting Date 4 (here, November 9, 2019) or March 15th of the year following the calendar year in which the 5 Vesting Date occurs. 54. 6 The RSU Agreements further provided that, other than Permitted Modifications, 7 “no modification of or amendment to this RSU Agreement that materially and adversely affects 8 the rights of Participant shall be effective unless agreed to in writing by the parties to this RSU 9 Agreement.” 55. 10 Uber anticipatorily breached each of the RSU Agreements by sending the May 6 11 Memo and purporting to amend the terms of the RSUs by accelerating the Settlement Date absent 12 a basis for any Permitted Modification and without Plaintiffs’ agreement. 56. 13 14 Uber breached the RSU Agreements by issuing the RSU shares to Plaintiffs on May 9, 2019 rather than November 9, 2019. 57. 15 The Acceleration materially and adversely affected the rights of all Plaintiffs by 16 subjecting them to being taxed at the IPO price of $45 per RSU Share rather than at the original 17 Settlement Date price of $27 per RSU Share, an increase in the Plaintiffs’ tax obligations of more 18 than 40%, as the 40% gross increase in the taxable value subjected many Plaintiffs to higher 19 marginal tax rates. 20 58. Plaintiffs each had and have performed all obligations and conditions required by 21 them under the RSU Agreements and/or are excused from doing so. Plaintiffs each did not agree 22 to the Acceleration and would not have done so had they been asked and not misled. 59. 23 As a result of the Uber’s breach, Plaintiffs each have suffered damages in the form 24 of increased tax liability. Plaintiffs have been damaged in other, further ways subject to proof at 25 trial. 26 27 Second Cause of Action Breach of the Implied Covenant of Good Faith and Fair Dealing (By all Plaintiffs against All Defendants) 28 Page 17 COMPLAINT 1 60. Plaintiff incorporates all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 2 61. The RSU Agreements contained an implied promise of good faith and fair dealing 3 that neither party would do anything to unfairly interfere with the rights of the other party to 4 receive the benefits of the contract. 5 6 7 62. Plaintiffs each have performed all obligations and conditions required by them in their respective RSU Agreements and/or are excused from doing so. 63. Uber breached the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing by unilaterally 8 implementing the Acceleration, without the existence of a Permitted Modification circumstance, 9 for Uber’s benefit, and without due regard for the potential harm to the Plaintiffs. 10 11 12 13 14 64. Further, the May 6 Memo to concealed Uber’s true reasons for the Acceleration and misled Plaintiffs concerning the risks and detriments to them. 65. By its conduct, Uber also waived its right and/or is estopped to deny such obligations and breaches. 66. As a result of Uber’s breach, Plaintiffs each have suffered damages in the form of 15 increased tax liability. Plaintiffs have been damaged in other, further ways subject to proof at trial. 16 Third Cause of Action Fraud (By All Plaintiffs against All Defendants) 17 18 67. Plaintiff incorporates all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 19 68. Uber published and/or distributed the May 6 Memo to Plaintiffs stating that the 20 21 Defendant was acting unilaterally to implement the Acceleration. 69. Uber falsely represented in the May 6 Memo that the Acceleration was being 22 implemented in the best interests of the Plaintiffs, knowingly made material misstatements and 23 omissions in detailing the purported benefits of the Acceleration to the Plaintiffs, concealed Uber’s 24 true reasons for implementing the Acceleration, and misleadingly implied Uber had the legal right 25 to implement the Acceleration without Plaintiffs’ agreement. 26 70. Uber intended that the Plaintiffs rely upon the May 6 Memo, and they reasonably 27 did rely on the veracity of the statements in and implications of the May 6 Memo by not 28 immediately objecting to the Acceleration, and in other and further ways subject to proof at trial. Page 18 COMPLAINT 1 71. Uber acted with fraud, malice and/or oppression in publishing the May 6 Memo, 2 seeking facilitate the Acceleration and conceal its true motives and the risks to RSU holders, for 3 its own benefit and to the detriment of the Plaintiffs. 4 72. As a result of Uber’s actions, Plaintiffs have suffered damages in the form of 5 increased tax liability. Plaintiffs have been damaged in other, further ways subject to proof at trial. 6 Fourth Cause of Action Conversion (All Plaintiffs against All Defendants) 7 8 73. Plaintiffs incorporate all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 74. The RSU Agreements included and secured to Plaintiffs and each of them the right 9 10 to have Uber the risks associated with holding their RSU Shares during the Lock-up Period of 11 May 9, 2019, to November 9, 2019, specifying that Uber was obligated to (“shall”) deliver the 12 RSU Shares only after the expiration of the Lock-up Period. Plaintiffs did everything reasonably 13 required to secure that right to themselves. 14 75. By the Acceleration, Uber knowingly and intentionally took away Plaintiffs’ rights 15 under the RSU Agreements to have Uber bear all the risks of receiving, holding, and owning the 16 Plaintiffs’ RSU Shares during the Lock-up Period. By shifting ownership during that time, Uber 17 converted Plaintiffs’ economic rights under the RSU Agreement for its own benefit. 18 76. Plaintiffs and each of them have been damaged as a direct and proximate result of 19 these actions. Plaintiffs have been damaged in other, further ways subject to proof at trial. 20 77. Defendants’ acts constitute oppression, fraud, or malice under California Civil 21 Code § 3294, entitling Plaintiffs to punitive damages in an amount appropriate to punish or set an 22 example of Uber. Uber at all times knew that Plaintiffs probably would be injured because Uber’s 23 stock price probably would decline, eliminating much or all of Plaintiffs after-tax net income 24 associated with their RSUs. Uber had only to do nothing—not issuing the RSU shares until the 25 appropriate November 9, 2019 settlement date. Instead, it affirmatively acted to misrepresent the 26 facts and issue the shares, taking for itself the benefit of not bearing the risk of holding the shares 27 during the Lock-up Period, and imposing risk and realized losses on the Plaintiffs. 28 Page 19 COMPLAINT 1 2 3 Fifth Cause of Action Violations of Labor Code Sections 201-203 (Waiting Time Penalties) (By All Plaintiffs Not Employed by Uber as of the Date of Entry of Judgment, Against All Defendants) 4 78. Plaintiffs incorporate all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 5 79. The vast majority of the Plaintiffs named here are no longer employed by Uber. 6 Their approximate termination dates are set forth on Schedule 1 and incorporated by this 7 reference. It is likely that more of the Plaintiffs will be no longer employed by Uber as of the date 8 of determination of this dispute. As of the Plaintiffs’ respective dates of termination, and for 30 9 days thereafter, Uber failed to pay Plaintiffs their earned wages due. 10 80. Labor Code §§ 201 and 202 require employers to pay, immediately upon discharge 11 or within seventy-two (72) hours of quitting without notice, all the wages owed to a terminated 12 employee. Labor Code § 203 imposes on an employer a penalty of one day’s wages for each day 13 of delay, to a maximum of 30 day’s pay. 14 15 16 81. The RSUs are wages earned by Plaintiffs’ labor, and became due, at the latest, on the November 9, 2020 Settlement date. 82. The Acceleration systematically and willfully deprived Plaintiffs of the wages that 17 they were due upon discharge in the form of the full value of the RSUs, and Uber failed to pay the 18 difference within the statutorily required time following the termination of Plaintiffs’ employment. 19 20 83. As a result of Uber’s conduct, each affected Plaintiff is entitled to waiting time penalties of up to thirty (30) days' wages under Labor Code § 203, together with interest thereon. 21 Sixth Cause of Action Violations of Business & Professions Code Section 17200 et seq. (By All Plaintiffs against All Defendants) 22 23 24 84. Plaintiffs incorporate all preceding paragraphs as though repeated here. 85. The Unfair Competition Law (“UCL”), Cal. Bus. & Prof. Code § 17200, et seq. 25 26 prohibits all unlawful, unfair, and/or fraudulent business practices. 27 86. Uber’s above-alleged acts and omissions violated California Business and 28 Page 20 COMPLAINT 1 Professions Code §§ 17200, et seq., by, without limitation: 2 a. Failing to pay Plaintiffs the wages due under the RSU Agreements; 3 b. Purporting to pay in conformance with the RSU agreements while in fact paying less, in violation of Labor Code § 223; 4 c. 5 value of their property, 6 d. 7 e. 9 Failing to pay all wages due to Plaintiffs no longer employed by Uber at the time of their discharge, in violation of Labor Code §§ 201-203; 10 12 Fraudulently misrepresenting and concealing the reasons and economic consequences of the Acceleration; 8 11 Converting for their own use Plaintiffs’ right to pay taxes on the actual 87. As a result, Plaintiffs have suffered injury in fact, lost money or property in the form of additional income taxes due, and are entitled to restitution of those wages. 13 14 Prayer for Relief WHEREFORE, Plaintiffs pray for relief and judgment as follows: 15 For compensatory damages in an amount to be determined at trial; 16 For disgorgement of all benefits obtained by Defendant through its herein-alleged 17 wrongful actions, to prevent the Defendant being unjustly enriched by its 18 unlawful conduct; 19 For an award of punitive damages to each Plaintiff pursuant to Civil Code § 20 3294(a); 21 For attorney’s fees and expenses pursuant to California Labor Code § 218.5(a); 22 For attorneys’ fees and expenses pursuant to California Civil Code § 1021.5; 23 For pre-judgment interest; 24 For costs of suit; and 25 For such other and further relief as the Court deems just and proper. 26 27 28 Page 21 COMPLAINT 1 DATED: August 27, 2020 RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, GALLO LLP 2 3 4 5 6 By: Ray E.

EX-10.2 13 d647752dex102.htm EX-10.2 Exhibit 10.2 UBER TECHNOLOGIES, INC. 2013 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN As Adopted on July 31, 2013 As Amended on December 23, 2013, June 5, 2014, October 14, 2014, November 13, 2014, January 28, 2016, April 27, 2017, December 1, 2017, January 30, 2018 and January 28, 20191 1. PURPOSE. The purpose of this Plan is to provide incentives to attract, retain and motivate eligible persons whose present and potential contributions are important to the success of the Company, its Parent and Subsidiaries by offering eligible persons an opportunity to participate in the Company’s future performance through the grant of Awards covering Shares. Capitalized terms not defined in the text are defined in Section 17 hereof. Although this Plan is intended to be a written compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701, grants may be made pursuant to this Plan that do not qualify for exemption under Rule 701 or Section 25102(o). Any requirement of this Plan that is required in law only because of Section 25102(o) need not apply if the Committee so provides. 2. SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN. 2.1 Number of Shares Available. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 11 hereof, the total number of Shares reserved and available for grant and issuance pursuant to this Plan will be 293,200,000 Shares (which number takes into account the one-for-ten forward stock split effected on January 31, 2014 and the one-for-four forward stock split effected on December 15, 2014) plus (a) shares that are subject to issuance under the 2010 Stock Plan (the “Prior Plan”) but cease to be subject to an award for any reason other than exercise of an option after the Effective Date and (b) shares that were issued under the Prior Plan which are repurchased by the Company or which are forfeited or used to pay withholding obligations or pay the exercised price of an Option. Subject to Sections 2.2 and 11 hereof, Shares subject to Awards that are cancelled, forfeited, settled in cash, used to pay withholding obligations or pay the exercise price of an Option or that expire by their terms at any time will again be available for grant and issuance in connection with other Awards. In the event that Shares previously issued under the Plan are reacquired by the Company pursuant to a forfeiture provision, right of first refusal, or repurchase by the Company, such Shares shall be added to the number of Shares then available for issuance under the Plan. At all times the Company will reserve and keep available a sufficient number of Shares as will be required to satisfy the requirements of all Awards granted and outstanding under this Plan. In no event shall the total number of Shares issued (counting each reissuance of a Share that was previously issued and then forfeited or repurchased by the Company as a separate issuance) under the Plan upon exercise of ISOs exceed 2,932,000,000 Shares (adjusted in proportion to any adjustments under Section 2.2 hereof) over the term of the Plan (the “ISO Limit”). Subject to Sections 2.2 and 11 hereof, in the event that the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan is increased, the ISO Limit shall be automatically increased by such number of Shares such that the ISO Limit equals (a) ten (10) multiplied by (b) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan.     1 The initial number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan was 230,000 shares, approved by the Board on July 31, 2013, which was subsequently increased to 1,230,000 shares by the Board on December 23, 2013. On January 31, 2014, the Company effected a one-for-ten forward stock split that increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan to 12,300,000. On June 5, 2014, the Board increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan to 19,300,000. On October 13, 2014, the Board approved amendments to the Plan. On November 13, 2014, the Board increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan to 28,300,000. On December 15, 2014, the Company effected a one-for-four forward stock split that increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan to 113,200,000. On January 28, 2016, the Board increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan by 30,000,000 (reflecting all prior stock splits) to 143,200,000. On April 27, 2017, the Board approved an amendment to Section 4.6.1 as set forth herein. On December 1, 2017, the Compensation Committee approved an amendment to Sections 4.6.1 and 8.2.2 as set forth herein. On January 30, 2018, the Board increased the number of shares of Class A Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan by 65,000,000, to 208,200,000. On January 28, 2019, the Board increased the numbers of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the Plan by 85,000,000, to 293,200,000. EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 2 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 2.2 Adjustment of Shares. In the event that the number of outstanding shares of the Company’s Common Stock is changed by a stock dividend, recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, subdivision, combination, reclassification or other change in the capital structure of the Company affecting Shares without consideration, then in order to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan (a) the number of Shares reserved for issuance under this Plan, (b) the Exercise Prices of and number of Shares subject to outstanding Options and SARs, and (c) the Purchase Prices of and/or number of Shares subject to other outstanding Awards will be proportionately adjusted, subject to any required action by the Board or the stockholders of the Company and compliance with applicable securities laws; provided, however, that fractions of a Share will not be issued but will either be paid in cash at the Fair Market Value of such fraction of a Share or will be rounded down to the nearest whole Share, as determined by the Committee. 3. PLAN FOR BENEFIT OF SERVICE PROVIDERS. 3.1 Eligibility. The Committee will have the authority to select persons to receive Awards. ISOs (as defined in Section 4 hereof) may be granted only to employees (including officers and directors who are also employees) of the Company or of a Parent or Subsidiary of the Company. NQSOs (as defined in Section 4 hereof) and all other types of Awards may be granted to employees, officers, directors and consultants of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company; provided such consultants render bona fide services not in connection with the offer and sale of securities in a capital- raising transaction when Rule 701 is to apply to the Award granted for such services. A person may be granted more than one Award under this Plan. 3.2 No Obligation to Employ. Nothing in this Plan or any Award granted under this Plan will confer or be deemed to confer on any Participant any right to continue in the employ of, or to continue any other relationship with, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary to terminate Participant’s employment or other relationship at any time, with or without Cause. 4. OPTIONS. The Committee may grant Options to eligible persons described in Section 3 hereof and will determine whether such Options will be Incentive Stock Options within the meaning of the Code (“ISOs” or “Incentive Stock Options”) or Nonqualified Stock Options (“NQSOs” or “Nonstatutory Stock Options”), the number of Shares subject to the Option, the Exercise Price of the Option, the period during which the Option may be exercised, and all other terms and conditions of the Option, subject to the following. 4.1 Form of Option Grant. Each Option granted under this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement which will expressly identify the Option as an ISO or an NQSO (“Stock Option Agreement”), and will be in such form and contain such provisions (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee may from time to time approve, and which will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 4.2 Date of Grant. The date of grant of an Option will be the date on which the Committee makes the determination to grant such Option, unless a later date is otherwise specified by the Committee. The Stock Option Agreement and a copy of this Plan will be delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time after the granting of the Option.   2 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 3 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 4.3 Exercise Period. Options may be exercisable within the time or upon the events determined by the Committee in the Award Agreement and may be awarded immediately but subject to repurchase pursuant to Section 10 hereof or may be exercisable within the times or upon the events determined by the Committee as set forth in the Stock Option Agreement governing such Option; provided, however, that (a) no Option will be exercisable after the expiration of ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted; and (b) no ISO granted to a person who directly or by attribution owns more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Parent or Subsidiary (“Ten Percent Stockholder”) will be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from the date the ISO is granted. The Committee also may provide for Options to become exercisable at one time or from time to time, periodically or otherwise, in such number of Shares or percentage of Shares as the Committee determines. 4.4 Exercise Price. The Exercise Price of an Option will be determined by the Committee when the Option is granted and shall not be less than the Fair Market Value per Share unless expressly determined in writing by the Committee on the Option’s date of grant; provided that the Exercise Price of an ISO granted to a Ten Percent Stockholder will not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of grant. Payment for the Shares purchased must be made in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 4.5 Method of Exercise. Options may be exercised only by delivery to the Company of a written stock option exercise agreement (the “Exercise Agreement”) in a form approved by the Committee (which need not be the same for each Participant). The Exercise Agreement will state (a) the number of Shares being purchased, (b) the restrictions imposed on the Shares purchased under such Exercise Agreement, if any, and (c) such representations and agreements regarding Participant’s investment intent and access to information and other matters, if any, as may be required or desirable by the Company to comply with applicable securities laws. Each Participant’s Exercise Agreement may be modified by (i) agreement of Participant and the Company or (ii) substitution by the Company, upon becoming a public company, in order to add the payment terms set forth in Section 8.1 that apply to a public company and such other terms as shall be necessary or advisable in order to exercise a public company option. Upon exercise of an Option, Participant shall execute and deliver to the Company the Exercise Agreement then in effect, together with payment in full of the Exercise Price for the number of Shares being purchased and payment of any applicable taxes. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 2.2 of the Plan. Exercising an Option in any manner will decrease the number of Shares thereafter available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised. 4.6 Termination. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Sections 11 and 16.3 hereof and notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Stock Option Agreement, exercise of an Option will always be subject to the following terms and conditions. 4.6.1 Other than Death or Disability or for Cause. If the Participant is Terminated for any reason other than death, Disability or for Cause, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options only to the extent that such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Such Options must be exercised by the Participant, if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within three (3) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than thirty (30) days, or within such longer time period as may be determined by the Committee) but in any event, no later than the expiration date of the Options. Any such Options that remain exercisable for more than (3) months after the date Participant ceases to be an Employee shall be deemed to be NQSOs.   3 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 4 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 4.6.2 Death or Disability. If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant’s death or Disability (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after a Termination other than for Cause), then Participant’s Options may be exercised only to the extent that such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares by Participant on the Termination Date or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Such options must be exercised by Participant (or Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee), if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than six (6) months, or within such longer time period, after the Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee, with any exercise beyond (a) three (3) months after the date Participant ceases to be an employee when the Termination is for any reason other than the Participant’s death or disability, within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, or (b) twelve (12) months after the date Participant ceases to be an employee when the Termination is for Participant’s disability, within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code, deemed to be an NQSO) but in any event no later than the expiration date of the Options. 4.6.3 For Cause. If the Participant is terminated for Cause, the Participant may exercise such Participant’s Options, but not to an extent greater than such Options are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date and Participant’s Options shall expire on such Participant’s Termination Date, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the Committee. 4.7 Limitations on Exercise. The Committee may specify a reasonable minimum number of Shares that may be purchased on any exercise of an Option, provided that such minimum number will not prevent Participant from exercising the Option for the full number of Shares for which it is then exercisable. 4.8 Limitations on ISOs. The aggregate Fair Market Value (determined as of the date of grant) of Shares with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year (under this Plan or under any other incentive stock option plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company) will not exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000). If the Fair Market Value of Shares on the date of grant with respect to which ISOs are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year exceeds One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000), then the Options for the first One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) worth of Shares to become exercisable in such calendar year will be ISOs and the Options for the amount in excess of One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) that become exercisable in that calendar year will be NQSOs. In the event that the Code or the regulations promulgated thereunder are amended after the Effective Date (as defined in Section 16.1 hereof) to provide for a different limit on the Fair Market Value of Shares permitted to be subject to ISOs, then such different limit will be automatically incorporated herein and will apply to any Options granted after the effective date of such amendment. 4.9 Modification, Extension or Renewal. The Committee may modify, extend or renew outstanding Options and authorize the grant of new Options in substitution therefor, provided that any such action may not, without the written consent of a Participant, impair any of such Participant’s rights under any Option previously granted. Any outstanding ISO that is modified, extended, renewed or otherwise altered will be treated in accordance with Section 424(h) of the Code. Subject to Section 4.10 hereof, the Committee may reduce the Exercise Price of outstanding Options without the consent of Participants by a written notice to them; provided, however, that the Exercise Price may not be reduced below the minimum Exercise Price that would be permitted under Section 4.4 hereof for Options granted on the date the action is taken to reduce the Exercise Price. 4.10 No Disqualification. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, no term of this Plan relating to ISOs will be interpreted, amended or altered, nor will any discretion or authority granted under this Plan be exercised, so as to disqualify this Plan under Section 422 of the Code or, without the consent of the Participant, to disqualify any Participant’s ISO under Section 422 of the Code.   4 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 5 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 4.11 Information to Optionees. If the Company is relying on the exemption from registration under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 12h-1(f)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act, then the Company shall provide the Required Information (as defined below) in the manner required by Rule 12h-1(f)(1) to all optionees every six months until the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act or is no longer relying on the exemption pursuant to Rule 12h-1(f)(1); provided, that, prior to receiving access to the Required Information the optionee must agree to keep the Required Information confidential pursuant to a written agreement in the form provided by the Company. For purposes of this Section 4.11, “Required Information” means the information described in Rules 701(e)(3), (4) and (5) under the Securities Act. 5. RESTRICTED STOCK. A Restricted Stock Award is an offer by the Company to sell to an eligible person Shares that are subject to certain specified restrictions. The Committee will determine to whom an offer will be made, the number of Shares the person may purchase, the Purchase Price, the restrictions to which the Shares will be subject, and all other terms and conditions of the Restricted Stock Award, subject to the following terms and conditions. 5.1 Form of Restricted Stock Award. All purchases under a Restricted Stock Award made pursuant to this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement (“Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement”) that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. The Restricted Stock Award will be accepted by the Participant’s execution and delivery of the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement and full payment for the Shares to the Company within thirty (30) days from the date the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement is delivered to the person. If such person does not execute and deliver the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement along with full payment for the Shares to the Company within such thirty (30) days, then the offer will terminate, unless otherwise determined by the Committee. 5.2 Purchase Price. The Purchase Price of Shares sold pursuant to a Restricted Stock Award will be determined by the Committee on the date the Restricted Stock Award is granted or at the time the purchase is consummated. Payment of the Purchase Price must be made in accordance with Section 8 hereof. 5.3 Dividends and Other Distributions. Participants holding Restricted Stock will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, unless the Committee provides otherwise at the time of award. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same restrictions on transferability and forfeitability as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. 5.4 Restrictions. Restricted Stock Awards may be subject to the restrictions set forth in Sections 9 and 10 hereof or, with respect to a Restricted Stock Award to which Section 25102(o) is to apply, such other restrictions not inconsistent with Section 25102(o). 6. RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS. 6.1 Awards of Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit (“RSU”) is an Award covering a number of Shares that may be settled in cash, or by issuance of those Shares at a date in the future. No Purchase Price shall apply to an RSU settled in Shares. All grants of Restricted Stock Units will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 6.2 Form and Timing of Settlement. To the extent permissible under applicable law, the Committee may permit a Participant to defer payment under a RSU to a date or dates after the RSU is earned, provided that the terms of the RSU and any deferral satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or any successor) and any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder. Payment may be made in the form of cash or whole Shares or a combination thereof, all as the Committee determines.   5 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 6 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 7. STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS. 7.1 Awards of SARs. Stock Appreciation Rights (“SARs”) may be settled in cash, or Shares (which may consist of Restricted Stock or RSUs), having a value equal to the value determined by multiplying the difference between the Fair Market Value on the date of exercise over the Exercise Price and the number of Shares with respect to which the SAR is being settled. All grants of SARs made pursuant to this Plan will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will be in such form (which need not be the same for each Participant) as the Committee will from time to time approve, and will comply with and be subject to the terms and conditions of this Plan. 7.2 Exercise Period and Expiration Date. A SAR will be exercisable within the times or upon the occurrence of events determined by the Committee and set forth in the Award Agreement governing such SAR. The Award Agreement shall set forth the Expiration Date; provided that no SAR will be exercisable after the expiration of ten years from the date the SAR is granted. 7.3 Exercise Price. The Committee will determine the Exercise Price of the SAR when the SAR is granted, and which may not be less than the Fair Market Value on the date of grant and may be settled in cash or in Shares. 7.4 Termination. Subject to earlier termination pursuant to Sections 11 and 16.1 hereof and notwithstanding the exercise periods set forth in the Award Agreement, exercise of SARs will always be subject to the following terms and conditions. 7.4.1 Other than Death or Disability or for Cause. If the Participant is Terminated for any reason other than death, Disability or for Cause, then the Participant may exercise such Participant’s SARs only to the extent that such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date or as otherwise determined by the Committee. SARs must be exercised by the Participant, if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within three (3) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than thirty (30) days, or within such longer time period, not exceeding five (5) years, after the Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee) but in any event, no later than the expiration date of the SARs. 7.4.2 Death or Disability. If the Participant is Terminated because of Participant’s death or Disability (or the Participant dies within three (3) months after a Termination other than for Cause), then Participant’s SARs may be exercised only to the extent that such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares by Participant on the Termination Date or as otherwise determined by the Committee. Such SARs must be exercised by Participant (or Participant’s legal representative or authorized assignee), if at all, as to all or some of the Vested Shares calculated as of the Termination Date or such other date determined by the Committee, within twelve (12) months after the Termination Date (or within such shorter time period, not less than six (6) months, or within such longer time period, not exceeding five (5) years, after the Termination Date as may be determined by the Committee) but in any event no later than the expiration date of the SARs. 7.4.3 For Cause. If the Participant is terminated for Cause, the Participant may exercise such Participant’s SARs, but not to an extent greater than such SARs are exercisable as to Vested Shares upon the Termination Date and Participant’s SARs shall expire on such Participant’s Termination Date, or at such later time and on such conditions as are determined by the Committee.   6 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 7 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 8. PAYMENT FOR PURCHASES AND EXERCISES. 8.1 Payment in General. Payment for Shares acquired pursuant to this Plan may be made in cash (by check) or, where expressly approved for the Participant by the Committee and where permitted by law: (a) by cancellation of indebtedness of the Company owed to the Participant; (b) by surrender of shares of the Company that are clear of all liens, claims, encumbrances or security interests and: (i) for which the Company has received “full payment of the purchase price” within the meaning of SEC Rule 144 (and, if such shares were purchased from the Company by use of a promissory note, such note has been fully paid with respect to such shares) or (ii) that were obtained by Participant in the public market; (c) by tender of a full recourse promissory note having such terms as may be approved by the Committee and bearing interest at a rate sufficient to avoid imputation of income under Sections 483 and 1274 of the Code; provided, however, that Participants who are not employees or directors of the Company will not be entitled to purchase Shares with a promissory note unless the note is adequately secured by collateral other than the Shares; provided, further, that the portion of the Exercise Price or Purchase Price, as the case may be, equal to the par value (if any) of the Shares must be paid in cash or other legal consideration permitted by the laws under which the Company is then incorporated or organized; (d) by waiver of compensation due or accrued to the Participant from the Company for services rendered; (e) by participating in a formal cashless exercise program implemented by the Committee in connection with the Plan; (f) subject to compliance with applicable law, provided that a public market for the Company’s Common Stock exists, by exercising through a “same day sale” commitment from the Participant and a broker-dealer whereby the Participant irrevocably elects to exercise the Award and to sell a portion of the Shares so purchased sufficient to pay the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price, and whereby the broker-dealer irrevocably commits upon receipt of such Shares to forward the total Exercise Price or Purchase Price directly to the Company; or (g) by any combination of the foregoing or any other method of payment approved by the Committee. 8.2 Withholding Taxes. 8.2.1 Withholding Generally. Whenever Shares are to be issued in satisfaction of Awards granted under this Plan, the Company may require the Participant to remit to the Company an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements prior to the delivery of any certificate or certificates for such Shares. Whenever, under this Plan, payments in satisfaction of Awards are to be made in cash by the Company, such payment will be net of an amount sufficient to satisfy applicable tax withholding requirements. 8.2.2 Stock Withholding. When, under applicable tax laws, a Participant incurs tax liability in connection with the exercise or vesting of any Award that is subject to tax withholding and the Participant is obligated to pay the Company the amount required to be withheld, the Committee may in its sole discretion allow or require the Participant to satisfy all or a portion of the tax withholding obligation by (i) having the Company withhold from the Shares otherwise issuable a number of Shares having an aggregate fair market value on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined   7 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 8 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... that does not exceed the amount required to be withheld, with the number of Shares to be withheld determined using rates of up to, but not exceeding, the maximum statutory tax rates applicable in the Participant’s jurisdiction on the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined; or (ii) arranging a mandatory “sell to cover” on Participant’s behalf (without further authorization). In no event, however, will the Company withhold Shares or “sell to cover” if such withholding would result in adverse accounting consequences to the Company. Any elections to have Shares withheld or sold for this purpose will be made in accordance with the requirements established by the Committee for such elections and be in writing in a form acceptable to the Committee. 9. RESTRICTIONS ON AWARDS. 9.1 Transferability. Except as permitted by the Committee, Awards granted under this Plan, and any interest therein, will not be transferable or assignable by Participant, other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and, with respect to NQSOs, by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the NQSOs are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor), or by gift to “family member” as that term is defined in Rule 701, and may not be made subject to execution, attachment or similar process. For the avoidance of doubt, the prohibition against assignment and transfer applies to a stock option and, prior to exercise , the shares to be issued on exercise of a stock option, and pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall be understood to include, without limitation, a prohibition against any pledge, hypothecation, or other transfer, including any short position, any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” (in each case, as defined in Rule 16a-1 promulgated under the Exchange Act. During the lifetime of the Participant an Award will be exercisable only by the Participant or Participant’s legal representative and any elections with respect to an Award may be made only by the Participant or Participant’s legal representative. The terms of an Option shall be binding upon the executor, administrator, successors and assigns of the Participant who is a party thereto. 9.2 Securities Law and Other Regulatory Compliance. Although this Plan is intended to be a written compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701 promulgated under the Securities Act, grants may be made pursuant to this Plan that do not qualify for exemption under Rule 701 or Section 25102(o). Any requirement of this Plan which is required in law only because of Section 25102(o) need not apply with respect to a particular Award to which Section 25102(o) will not apply. An Award will not be effective unless such Award is in compliance with all applicable federal and state securities laws, rules and regulations of any governmental body, and the requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may then be listed or quoted, as they are in effect on the date of grant of the Award and also on the date of exercise or other issuance. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, the Company will have no obligation to issue or deliver certificates for Shares under this Plan prior to (a) obtaining any approvals from governmental agencies that the Company determines are necessary or advisable, and/or (b) compliance with any exemption, completion of any registration or other qualification of such Shares under any state or federal law or ruling of any governmental body that the Company determines to be necessary or advisable. The Company will be under no obligation to register the Shares with the SEC or to effect compliance with the exemption, registration, qualification or listing requirements of any state securities laws, stock exchange or automated quotation system, and the Company will have no liability for any inability or failure so do. 9.3 Exchange and Buyout of Awards. The Committee may, at any time or from time to time, authorize the Company, with the consent of the respective Participants, to issue new Awards in exchange for the surrender and cancellation of any or all outstanding Awards. Without prior stockholder approval the Committee may reprice Options or SARs (and where such repricing is a reduction in the Exercise Price of outstanding Options or SARs, the consent of the affected Participants is not required provided written notice is provided to them). The Committee may at any time buy from a Participant an Award previously granted with payment in cash, Shares (including Restricted Stock) or other consideration, based on such terms and conditions as the Committee and the Participant may agree.   8 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 9 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 10. RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. 10.1 Privileges of Stock Ownership. No Participant will have any of the rights of a stockholder with respect to any Shares until such Shares are issued to the Participant. After Shares are issued to the Participant, the Participant will be a stockholder and have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such Shares, including the right to vote and receive all dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such Shares; provided, that if such Shares are Restricted Stock, then any new, additional or different securities the Participant may become entitled to receive with respect to such Shares by virtue of a stock dividend, stock split or any other change in the corporate or capital structure of the Company will be subject to the same restrictions as the Restricted Stock. The Participant will have no right to retain such stock dividends or stock distributions with respect to Unvested Shares that are repurchased as described in this Section 10. 10.2 Rights of First Refusal and Repurchase. At the discretion of the Committee, the Company may reserve to itself and/or its assignee(s) in the Award Agreement (a) a right of first refusal to purchase all Shares that a Participant (or a subsequent transferee) may propose to transfer to a third party, provided that such right of first refusal terminates upon the Company’s initial public offering of Common Stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act and (b) a right to repurchase Unvested Shares held by a Participant for cash and/or cancellation of purchase money indebtedness owed to the Company by the Participant following such Participant’s Termination at any time. 10.3 Escrow; Pledge of Shares. To enforce any restrictions on a Participant’s Shares, the Committee may require the Participant to deposit all certificates representing Shares, together with stock powers or other instruments of transfer approved by the Committee, appropriately endorsed in blank, with the Company or an agent designated by the Company to hold in escrow until such restrictions have lapsed or terminated. The Committee may cause a legend or legends referencing such restrictions to be placed on the certificate. Any Participant who is permitted to execute a promissory note as partial or full consideration for the purchase of Shares under this Plan will be required to pledge and deposit with the Company all or part of the Shares so purchased as collateral to secure the payment of Participant’s obligation to the Company under the promissory note; provided, however, that the Committee may require or accept other or additional forms of collateral to secure the payment of such obligation and, in any event, the Company will have full recourse against the Participant under the promissory note notwithstanding any pledge of the Participant’s Shares or other collateral. In connection with any pledge of the Shares, Participant will be required to execute and deliver a written pledge agreement in such form as the Committee will from time to time approve. The Shares purchased with the promissory note may be released from the pledge on a pro rata basis as the promissory note is paid. 10.4 Securities Law Restrictions. All certificates for Shares or other securities delivered under this Plan will be subject to such stock transfer orders, legends and other restrictions as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, including restrictions under any applicable federal, state or foreign securities law, or any rules, regulations and other requirements of the SEC or any stock exchange or automated quotation system upon which the Shares may be listed or quoted. 11. ADDITIONAL TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS ON SHARES. 11.1 The holder of any Shares of the Company (a “Security Holder”) shall not transfer, assign, pledge, encumber, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Shares of the Company (a “Security”), other than by means of a Permitted Transfer (as defined below), without the prior written consent of the Company’s Board of Directors. If any provision(s) of any agreement(s) currently in effect by and between the Company and any Security Holder (the “Security Holder Agreement(s)”) conflicts with Section 8.12 of the Company’s bylaws, Section 8.12 shall govern, and the non-conflicting remainder of the Security Holder Agreement(s) shall continue in full force and effect; provided, that, Section 11.2 hereof shall be deemed not to conflict with Section 8.12 of the Company’s bylaws.   9 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 10 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 11.2 For purposes of the transfer restrictions set forth herein, a “Security” shall be deemed to be transferred in (a) any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of any security of the Company, even if any security of the Company would be disposed of by someone other than the Security Holder, or (ii) any transaction involving any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including without limitation any put or call option) with respect to any security of the Company or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from any security of the Company. 11.3 A “Permitted Transfer” as used in this Section 11 shall be defined as: 11.3.1 any repurchase of a Share by the Company: (i) at cost, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as the termination of employment or services; or (ii) at any price pursuant to the Company’s exercise of a right of first refusal to repurchase such shares; 11.3.2 the transfer of any or all of the Shares held by a Security Holder to a single trust for the benefit of the Security Holder or the Security Holder’s Immediate Family. As used herein, the term “Immediate Family” will mean Security Holder’s spouse or Spousal Equivalent, the lineal descendant or antecedent, father, mother, brother or sister, whether or not any of the above are adopted. As used herein, a person is deemed to be a “Spousal Equivalent” provided the following circumstances are true: (i) irrespective of whether or not the relevant person and the Spousal Equivalent are the same sex, they are the sole spousal equivalent of the other for the last twelve (12) months, (ii) they intend to remain so indefinitely, (iii) neither are married to anyone else, (iv) both are at least 18 years of age and mentally competent to consent to contract, (v) they are not related by blood to a degree of closeness that which would prohibit legal marriage in the state in which they legally reside, (vi) they are jointly responsible for each other’s common welfare and financial obligations, and (vii) they reside together in the same residence for the last twelve (12) months and intend to do so indefinitely; 11.3.3 any transfer effected pursuant to the Security Holder’s will or the laws of intestate succession; 11.3.4 if the Security Holder is a partnership, limited liability company or a Company, no more than five (5) transfers to an Affiliate (as defined below) of such partnership, limited liability company or corporation; and/or 11.3.5 the transfer by a Major Investor (as defined in the Amended and Restated Right of First Refusal and Co-Sale Agreement dated August 1, 2013, as amended from time to time, or any successor agreement (the “Co-Sale Agreement”)) exercising such Major Investor’s Co-Sale Right (as defined in the Co-Sale Agreement). 12. Right of First Refusal 12.1 Right of First Refusal. Unless otherwise permitted pursuant to Section 11, before any Shares held by a Security Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company or its assignee(s) shall have a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth herein (the “Right of First Refusal”). 12.2 Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Security Holder shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Security Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Security Holder shall offer the Shares at the same price (the “Offered Price”) and upon the same terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s).   10 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 11 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 12.3 Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Security Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the purchase price determined in accordance with subsection (d) below. 12.4 Purchase Price. The purchase price (“Purchase Price”) for the Shares purchased by the Company or its assignee(s) under this Section 12 shall be the Offered Price. If the Offered Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in good faith. 12.5 Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the option of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check or wire transfer), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. 12.6 Security Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to the Proposed Transferee(s) are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided herein, then the Security Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to the Proposed Transferee(s) described in the Notice at the Offered Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within sixty (60) days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and Section 12 hereof. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee(s) within such period, or if the Security Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee(s), a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the right of first refusal provided herein before any Shares held by the Security Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. The terms of this subsection (f) may be waived by the Company or its assignee(s) in its sole discretion. 12.7 Exception for Certain Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding, the following transfers shall be exempt from the Right of First Refusal: 12.7.1 the transfer of any or all of the Shares held by a Security Holder to a single trust for the benefit of the Security Holder or the Security Holder’s Immediate Family; 12.7.2 any transfer effected pursuant to the Security Holder’s will or the laws of intestate succession; 12.7.3 if the Security Holder is a partnership, limited liability company or a corporation, no more than five (5) transfers to an Affiliate (as defined above) of such partnership, limited liability company or corporation; and/or 12.7.4 the transfer by a Major Investor (as defined in the Co-Sale Agreement) exercising such Major Investor’s Co-Sale Right (as defined in the Co-Sale Agreement). 12.8 In the case of any transfer effected in accordance with subsections (f) or (g) above, the transferee, assignee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares subject to the provisions of this Section 12, and there shall be no further transfer of such stock except in accordance with this Section 12. 13. Termination of Rights; Legend; Waiver. 13.1 Termination of Rights. The restrictions in Sections 11 and 12 shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of a Liquidation Transaction (as such term is defined in the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended or restated from time to time) or (ii) immediately prior   11 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 12 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... to an initial public offering under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder pursuant to which all outstanding shares of the Company’s Preferred Stock convert to Common Stock. Upon termination of such restrictions, a new certificate or certificates representing the outstanding Securities shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in subsection 13.2 below and delivered to each Security Holder. 13.2 Legend. The certificate or certificates representing the Shares may bear the following legend (as well as any legends required by other agreements and applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws): THE SHARES REPRESENTED BY THIS CERTIFICATE ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER CONTAINED IN THE BYLAWS OF THE COMPANY. 13.3 Waiver. The provisions of Sections 11 and 12 may be waived, with respect to any transaction subject thereto, by the Company’s Board of Directors; provided, however, that such restrictions shall continue to apply to the Shares subsequent to such transaction. 14. CORPORATE TRANSACTIONS. 14.1 Acquisitions or Other Combinations. In the event that the Company is subject to an Acquisition or Other Combination, outstanding Awards acquired under the Plan shall be subject to the agreement evidencing the Acquisition or Other Combination, which need not treat all outstanding Awards in an identical manner. Such agreement, without the Participant’s consent, shall provide for one or more of the following with respect to all outstanding Awards as of the effective date of such Acquisition or Other Combination: (a) The continuation of such outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the successor entity). (b) The assumption of outstanding Awards by the successor or acquiring entity (if any) in such Acquisition or Other Combination (or by any of its Parents, if any), which assumption, will be binding on all Participants; provided that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or any award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) and Section 409A of the Code. For the purposes of this Section 14, an Award will be considered assumed if, following the Acquisition or Other Combination, the Award confers the right to purchase or receive, for each Share subject to the Award immediately prior to the Acquisition or Other Combination, the consideration (whether stock, cash, or other securities or property) received in the Acquisition or Other Combination by holders of Shares for each Share held on the effective date of the transaction (and if holders were offered a choice of consideration, the type of consideration chosen by the holders of a majority of the outstanding Shares); provided, however, that if such consideration received in the Acquisition or Other Combination is not solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent, the Committee may, with the consent of the successor corporation, provide for the consideration to be received upon the exercise of an Option or Stock Appreciation Right or upon the payout of a Restricted Stock Unit, for each Share subject to such Award, to be solely common stock of the successor corporation or its Parent equal in fair market value to the per share consideration received by holders of Common Stock in the Acquisition or Other Combination. (c) The substitution by the successor or acquiring entity in such Acquisition or Other Combination (or by any of its Parents, if any) of equivalent awards with substantially the same terms for such outstanding Awards (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or any award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code).   12 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 13 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... (d) The full or partial exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of outstanding Awards. (e) The settlement of the full value of such outstanding Award (whether or not then vested or exercisable) in cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the successor entity (or its Parent, if any) with a Fair Market Value equal to the required amount, followed by the cancellation of such Awards; provided however, that such Award may be cancelled without consideration if such Award has no value, as determined by the Committee, in its discretion. Subject to Section 409A of the Code, such payment may be made in installments and may be deferred until the date or dates when the Award would have become exercisable or vested. Such payment may be subject to vesting based on the Participant’s continued service, provided that without the Participant’s consent, the vesting schedule shall not be less favorable to the Participant than the schedule under which the Award would have become vested or exercisable. For purposes of this Section 14.1(e), the Fair Market Value of any security shall be determined without regard to any vesting conditions that may apply to such security. (f) The cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for no consideration. Immediately following an Acquisition or Other Combination, outstanding Awards shall terminate and cease to be outstanding, except to the extent such Awards, have been continued, assumed or substituted, as described in Sections 14.1(a), (b) and/or (c). 14.2 Assumption of Awards by the Company. The Company, from time to time, also may substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another entity, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other entity or otherwise, by either (a) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other entity’s award or (b) assuming and/or converting such award as if it had been granted under this Plan if the terms of such assumed award could be applied to an Award granted under this Plan. Such substitution or assumption will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other entity had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Company assumes an award granted by another entity, the terms and conditions of such award will remain unchanged (except that the exercise price and the number and nature of shares issuable upon exercise of any such option or stock appreciation right, or any award that is subject to Section 409A of the Code, will be adjusted appropriately pursuant to Section 424(a) of the Code). In the event the Company elects to grant a new Option or SAR rather than assuming an existing option or stock appreciation right, such new Option or SAR may be granted with a similarly adjusted Exercise Price. 15. ADMINISTRATION. 15.1 Committee Authority. This Plan will be administered by the Committee or the Board if no Committee is created by the Board. Subject to the general purposes, terms and conditions of this Plan, and to the direction of the Board, the Committee will have full power to implement and carry out this Plan.

(e) determine the number of Shares or other consideration subject to Awards granted under this Plan; (f) determine the Fair Market Value in good faith and interpret the applicable provisions of this Plan and the definition of Fair Market Value in connection with circumstances that impact the Fair Market Value, if necessary; (g) determine whether Awards will be granted singly, in combination with, in tandem with, in replacement of, or as alternatives to, other Awards under this Plan or awards under any other incentive or compensation plan of the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary of the Company; (h) grant waivers of any conditions of this Plan or any Award; (i) determine the terms of vesting, exercisability and payment of Awards to be granted pursuant to this Plan; (j) correct any defect, supply any omission, or reconcile any inconsistency in this Plan, any Award, any Award Agreement, any Exercise Agreement or any Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement; (k) determine whether an Award has been earned; (l) extend the vesting period beyond a Participant’s Termination Date; (m) adopt rules and/or procedures (including the adoption of any subplan under this Plan) relating to the operation and administration of the Plan to accommodate requirements of local law and procedures outside of the United States; (n) delegate any of the foregoing to a subcommittee consisting of one or more executive officers pursuant to a specific delegation as may otherwise be permitted by applicable law; and (o) make all other determinations necessary or advisable in connection with the administration of this Plan. 15.2 Committee Composition and Discretion. The Board may delegate full administrative authority over the Plan and Awards to a Committee consisting of at least one member of the Board (or such greater number as may then be required by applicable law). Unless in contravention of any express terms of this Plan or Award, any determination made by the Committee with respect to any Award will be made in its sole discretion either (a) at the time of grant of the Award, or (b) subject to Section 4.9 hereof, at any later time. Any such determination will be final and binding on the Company and on all persons having an interest in any Award under this Plan. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company the authority to grant an Award under this Plan, provided that each such officer is a member of the Board. 15.3 Nonexclusivity of the Plan. Neither the adoption of this Plan by the Board, the submission of this Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval, nor any provision of this Plan will be construed as creating any limitations on the power of the Board to adopt such additional compensation arrangements as it may deem desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options and other equity awards otherwise than under this Plan, and such arrangements may be either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.   14 EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 15 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... 15.4 Governing Law. This Plan and all agreements hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to that body of laws pertaining to conflict of laws. 16.

This Plan will be approved by the stockholders of the Company (excluding Shares issued pursuant to this Plan), consistent with applicable laws, within twelve (12) months before or after the Effective Date. Upon the Effective Date, the Board may grant Awards pursuant to this Plan; provided, however, that: (a) no Option or SAR may be exercised prior to initial stockholder approval of this Plan; (b) no Option or SAR granted pursuant to an increase in the number of Shares approved by the Board shall be exercised prior to the time such increase has been approved by the stockholders of the Company; (c) in the event that initial stockholder approval is not obtained within the time period provided herein, all Awards for which only the exemption from California’s securities qualification requirements provided by Section 25102(o) can apply shall be canceled, any Shares issued pursuant to any such Award shall be canceled and any purchase of such Shares issued hereunder shall be rescinded; and (d) Awards (to which only the exemption from California’s securities qualification requirements provided by Section 25102(o) can apply) granted pursuant to an increase in the number of Shares approved by the Board which increase is not approved by stockholders within the time then required under Section 25102(o) shall be canceled, any Shares issued pursuant to any such Awards shall be canceled, and any purchase of Shares subject to any such Award shall be rescinded. 16.2 Term of Plan.

Notwithstanding the above, if designated as an Incentive Stock Option, in the event that the Shares subject to this Option (and all other Incentive Stock Options granted to Optionee by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, including under other plans of the Company) that first become exercisable in any calendar year have an aggregate fair market value (determined for each Share as of the date of grant of the option covering such Share) in excess of $100,000, the Shares in excess of $100,000 shall be treated as subject to a Nonstatutory Stock Option, in accordance with Section 5(c) of the Plan. 3.

(iii) The Company is not obligated, and will have no liability for failure, to issue or deliver any Shares upon exercise of this Option unless such issuance or delivery would comply with the Applicable Laws, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by the holders of capital stock of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such Shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws, including any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws or any other law or regulation, including any rule under Part 221 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board. As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by the Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date on which this Option is exercised with respect to such Shares.

Termination of Relationship.

For purposes of determining whether the Minimum Service Requirement has been met, the Company will divide the number of days that have elapsed between and including Optionee’s first day of service as an Employee and the date of termination of Optionee’s Employee status by 365. For clarity, no service as a Consultant or a non-Employee Director will be credited toward the Minimum Service Requirement. (ii) If such termination occurs on or after the date that Optionee has completed the Minimum Service Requirement, then Optionee may exercise this Option through the earliest of: (a) the seventh anniversary of the Termination Date, (b) the day before the tenth anniversary of the Date of Grant, and (c) the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice.

(ii) Death of Optionee.

(c) Termination for Cause. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for Cause, this Option (including any vested portion thereof) shall immediately terminate in its entirety upon first notification to Optionee of such termination for Cause. If Optionee’s Continuous Service Status is suspended pending an investigation of whether Optionee’s Continuous Service Status will be terminated for Cause, all Optionee’s rights under this Option, including the right to exercise this Option, shall be suspended during the investigation period. 6. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by him or her. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Optionee.

(i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (i) the Holder’s bona fide intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (ii) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (iii) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; and (iv) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer. The Holder shall offer the Shares at the same price (the “Purchase Price”) and upon the same terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible) to the Company or its assignee(s). (ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within thirty (30) days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to purchase all, but not less than all, of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Purchase Price. If the Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Board in good faith. (iii) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice. (iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If all of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 4(a), then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer such Shares to that Proposed Transferee at the Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within one hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with any applicable securities laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of Section 3 and this Section 4 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again be offered the Right of First Refusal before any Shares held by the Holder may be sold or otherwise transferred. (v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 4(a) notwithstanding, and provided that such transfer complies with Section 3 and applicable securities laws, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Purchaser’s lifetime or on Purchaser’s death by will or intestacy to Purchaser’s Immediate Family or a single trust for the benefit of the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 4(a). (b) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 4(a)(v) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have an option to purchase all of the Shares transferred at the greater of the purchase price paid by Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement or the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Board). Upon such a transfer, the person acquiring the Shares shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of thirty (30) days following receipt by the Company of written notice by the person acquiring the Shares.

Any sale or transfer of the Company’s Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied. (e) Termination of Rights. The right of first refusal granted the Company by Section 4(a) above and the option to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 4(b) above shall terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the closing of a Liquidation Transaction or (ii) immediately prior to an IPO. Upon termination of the right of first refusal described in Section 4(a) above pursuant to this paragraph (e), the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices referred to in Section 8(b) below and related to the restrictions in this Section 4 and, if certificates are issued, a new certificate or certificates representing the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 8(a)(ii) below and delivered to Purchaser. 5. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following: (a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing these securities for investment for his or her own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any person or entity. (b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein. (c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities. Purchaser understands that the transfer of the securities is prohibited unless they are registered or such registration is not required in the opinion of counsel for the Company, which opinion is in a form satisfactory to the Company, and that the certificate(s) evidencing the securities will be imprinted with a legend providing for the foregoing. (d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rules 144 and 701, each promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permit limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144 or Rule 701, which rules require, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this paragraph (d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in paragraph (e) below. EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 34 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... (e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 or 701 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rules 144 and 701 are not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 or 701 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk. (f) Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice. (g) Purchaser hereby acknowledges that Purchaser has been informed that, unless an election is filed by the Purchaser with the Internal Revenue Service (and, if necessary, the proper state taxing authorities), within 30 days of the purchase of the Unvested Shares, electing pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code (and similar state tax provisions, if applicable) to be taxed currently on any difference between the purchase price of the Unvested Shares and their Fair Market Value on the date of purchase, there may be a recognition of taxable income (including, where applicable, alternative minimum taxable income) to the Purchaser, measured by the excess, if any, of the Fair Market Value of the Unvested Shares at the time they cease to be Unvested Shares, over the purchase price of the Unvested Shares. A form of Election under Section 83(b) is attached hereto as Attachment 1 for reference. PURCHASER HEREBY ASSUMES ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR FILING SUCH ELECTION AND PAYING ANY TAXES RESULTING FROM SUCH ELECTION OR THE LAPSE OF THE REPURCHASE RESTRICTIONS ON THE UNITED STATES. 6. Company’s Repurchase Option. The Company, or its assignee, shall have the option to repurchase all or a portion of the Unvested Shares (as such term is defined in the Notice of Stock Option Grant for the Option Agreement) on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section (the “Repurchase Option”) if Purchaser should cease to be employed by the Company for any reason, or no reason, including, without limitation, Purchaser’s death, Disability, voluntary resignation or termination by the Company with or without Cause. (a) Right of Termination Unaffected. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to limit or otherwise affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company to terminate Purchaser’s employment at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, Purchaser shall be considered to be employed by the Company if Purchaser is an officer, director or full-time employee of the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company or if the Board determines that Purchaser is rendering substantial services as a part-time employee, consultant, contractor or advisor to the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company. The Committee of the Company shall have discretion to determine whether Purchaser has ceased to be employed by the Company or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Company, whether termination is for Cause, and the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”), and such determination shall be binding on Purchaser. (b) Automatic Exercise of Repurchase Option. On the 90th day after the later of the Termination Date and the date Purchaser purchased the Shares (the “Repurchase Date”), all Unvested Shares shall be deemed repurchased by the Company. Purchaser hereby agrees to take whatever action the Company deems necessary to effectuate the Company’s repurchase of the Unvested Shares. Following payment to Purchaser of the repurchase price, the Company will become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unvested Shares being repurchased and all rights and interests in and related to such shares, and the Company will have the right to transfer to its own name the Unvested Shares being repurchased by the Company without further action by Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may elect to waive, in its sole discretion, its Repurchase Option in whole or in part by providing written notice to Purchaser (and the escrow holder, as provided in Section 7 below), at any time prior to or on the Repurchase Date, and upon such waiver by the Company, the escrow holder may then release to you the number of Shares not being repurchased by the Company. EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 35 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... (c) Calculation of Repurchase Price. The repurchase price for each Unvested Share that is repurchased pursuant to the Repurchase Option shall be the purchase price per Share paid by the Purchaser as provided in Section 1 hereof. (d) Payment of Repurchase Price. The repurchase price shall be payable, at the option of the Company or its assignee, by check or by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness of Purchaser to the Company or such assignee, or by any combination thereof. The repurchase price shall be paid without interest within 30 days after the Repurchase Date. 7. Escrow of Unvested Shares. For purposes of facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of Section 3 and 6 above, Purchaser agrees, immediately upon receipt of the certificate(s) for the Shares subject to the Repurchase Option, to deliver such certificate(s), together with an Assignment Separate from Certificate in the form attached to this Agreement as Attachment A executed by Purchaser and by Purchaser’s spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, to the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, to hold such certificate(s) and Assignment Separate from Certificate in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as are in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, is so appointed as the escrow holder with the foregoing authorities as a material inducement to make this Agreement and that said appointment is coupled with an interest and is accordingly irrevocable. Purchaser agrees that said escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereof (or to any other party). The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may resign at any time. Purchaser agrees that if the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no reason, the Board shall have the power to appoint a successor to serve as escrow holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 8.

(f) Insider Trading Policies and Laws. Participant shall comply with the Company’s insider trading policy and code of conduct (or related policies) as may be adopted or amended from time to time by the Board (or a duly authorized committee thereof) (the “Policies”).

In no event will the restricted period extend beyond 216 days after the effective date of the registration statement. For the avoidance of any doubt, the restrictions contemplated under this Section 6 shall apply without regard to whether the restrictions set forth in Section 5 have expired. 7. Responsibility for Taxes. Participant acknowledges that, regardless of any action taken by the Company or, if different, Participant’s employer (the “Employer”), the ultimate liability for all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, fringe benefits tax, payment on account or other tax-related items related to Participant’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to Participant (“Tax-Related Items”) is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the RSUs, and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of the RSUs to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Further, if Participant is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. To satisfy any withholding obligations of the Company and/or the Employer with respect to Tax-Related Items, the Company will withhold Shares otherwise issuable upon settlement of the RSUs. Alternatively, or in addition, in connection with any applicable taxable or tax withholding event, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:   (i) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company or the Employer; (ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon settlement of the RSUs either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization without further consent); and/or     (iii) requiring Participant to tender a cash payment to the Company or the Employer in the amount of the Tax-Related Items; EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EX-10.2 48 of 50 https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1543151/00011931251910385... provided, however, that if Participant is a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, the withholding methods described in subsections (i), (ii) and (iii) above will only be used if the Committee (as constituted to satisfy Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act) determines, in advance of the applicable withholding event, that one such withholding method will be used in lieu of withholding Shares. Depending on the withholding method, the Company may withhold for Tax-Related Items by considering applicable minimum statutory withholding amounts or other applicable withholding rates, including maximum applicable rates, in which case Participant will receive a refund of any over-withheld amount in cash and will have no entitlement to the equivalent amount in Shares. The Company may refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items. 8. Code Section 409A. It is the intent that the RSUs shall be either exempt from or compliant with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and any successor Code, and related rules, regulations and interpretations, and the RSUs shall be interpreted, construed and operated to reflect this intent. Solely for purposes of Section 409A of the Code, each issuance of Shares on (or following) a Vesting Date shall be considered a separate payment. The Company reserves the right, to the extent the Company deems necessary or advisable in its sole discretion, to unilaterally amend or modify this RSU Agreement as may be necessary to ensure that the RSUs qualify for the exemption from, or comply with the requirements of, Section 409A or to mitigate any additional tax, interest and/or penalties or other adverse tax consequences that may apply under Section 409A if compliance is not practical; provided, however, that the Company makes no representation that the RSUs will be exempt from or will comply with Section 409A of the Code, and makes no undertaking to amend the terms of the RSUs to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to the RSUs or to ensure that the RSUs comply with Section 409A of the Code. Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall provide a basis for any person to take any action against the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary based on matters covered by Section 409A of the Code, including the tax treatment of any amounts paid under the RSUs, and neither the Company nor any Parent or Subsidiary will have any liability under any circumstances to Participant or any other party if the RSUs, the delivery of Shares upon vesting/payment of the RSUs or other payment or tax event hereunder that is intended to be exempt from, or compliant with, Section 409A of the Code, is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Committee with respect thereto. 9. Compliance with Laws and Regulations. The issuance of Shares will be subject to and conditioned upon compliance by the Company and Participant (including any written representations, warranties and agreements as the Committee may request of Participant for compliance with applicable laws) with all applicable local, state, federal and foreign laws and regulations and with all applicable requirements of any stock exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares may be listed or quoted at the time of such issuance or transfer. 10. Book-Entry Form; Legends. The Company shall issue the Shares to Participant by entering such Shares in Participant’s name as of such date in the books and records of the Company or, if applicable, a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. The Shares shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other restrictions as the Company may deem advisable under the Plan, this RSU Agreement or the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the SEC, any stock exchange upon which such Shares are listed, and any applicable local, state, federal and foreign laws, and the Company may cause such Shares to bear a legend or legends to make appropriate reference to such restrictions.

Nothing in this RSU Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary (if applicable) to terminate Participant’s service with the Company or a Parent or Subsidiary, for any reason, with or without cause. 12. Information to Participants. If the Company is relying on an exemption from registration under Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act and such information is required to be provided by such Section 12(h)-1, the Company shall provide the information described in Rules 701(e)(3), (4), and (5) of the Securities Act by a method allowed under Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act in accordance with Section 12(h)-1 of the Exchange Act, provided that Participant agrees to keep the information confidential. 13. Miscellaneous. (a) Governing Law. This RSU Agreement and all acts and transactions pursuant hereto and the rights and obligations of the parties hereto shall be governed, construed and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without giving effect to such state’s conflict of law principles.

The failure by either party to enforce any rights under this RSU Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of any rights of such party. (c) Severability. If one or more provisions of this RSU Agreement are held to be unenforceable under applicable laws, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this RSU Agreement, (ii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of this RSU Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. (d) Electronic Delivery and Acceptance. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to current or future participation in the Plan by electronic means. Participant hereby consents to receive such documents by electronic delivery and agrees to participate in the Plan through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company.

Participant should consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding his or her participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan. (h) Country-Specific Provisions. The RSUs shall be subject to any special terms and conditions set forth in the exhibit(s) to this RSU Agreement for Participant’s country if Participant is outside the United States. Moreover, if Participant relocates to one of the countries included in the exhibit(s), the special terms and conditions for such country will apply to Participant to the extent the Company determines that the application of such terms and conditions is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons. All exhibits constitute part of this RSU Agreement. (i) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on participation in the Plan, on the RSUs and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable for legal or administrative reasons, and to require Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTICE BY PARTICIPANT CONSTITUTES ACCEPTANCE OF THIS RSU AGREEMENT. EXHIBIT A 3/4/20, 8:01 PM32 EXHIBIT EXHIBIT TO: FROM: RE: Holders of certain RSUs Uber Equity Team Accelerated RSU Settlement Date You were previously granted certain restricted stock units (the “RSUs”) by Uber Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), pursuant to the terms of the Company’s 2013 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The RSUs vest subject to both of the following conditions: ● ● A time-based requirement; and The first of the following events, so long as it occurs before the expiration date of the RSUs (the “Liquidity Event Requirement”): o The closing of a liquidation, dissolution, or winding up of the Company for purposes of the Company’s Restated Certificate of Incorporation; or o An initial public offering (“IPO”). The Liquidity Event Requirement will be satisfied upon the effective date of the registration statement for the Company’s IPO. The terms of the RSUs generally provide that any RSUs that vest as a result of an IPO (the “IPO-Vested RSUs”) will be settled and issued as shares of Uber stock on the earlier to occur of (1) six months following the vesting date, or (2) March 15th of the year following the calendar year in which the IPO occurred. The Company has determined that it is in the best interests of the RSU holders, as well as in the best interests of the Company, to accelerate the settlement of the IPO-Vested RSUs to the IPO, for the reasons we outline below. Settlement of the RSUs may be a taxable event in the jurisdiction(s) in which you are subject to taxes. In the event Uber is required to withhold taxes from you upon settlement of the RSUs, you will receive a “net” number of shares, reflecting all applicable tax withholding obligations. If there is no tax withholding obligation in your applicable jurisdiction(s), you will receive shares equal to the full number of vested RSUs. Regardless of whether there is a tax withholding obligation, you may still have a tax liability in your applicable jurisdiction(s). For additional context and details, you should review the FAQs section on the Documents tab of your Shareworks account once Shareworks is back online upon the IPO. For ease of reference, we have provided some of the key FAQs on Exhibit A below. If you have further questions, please do not hesitate to contact the equity team at stock@uber.com. Please note that Uber doesn’t provide any tax, legal, or financial advice, and isn’t making any recommendations regarding your receipt or sale of shares acquired upon settlement of your RSUs. Please feel free to consult with your personal tax, legal, and financial advisors. EXHIBIT B EXHIBIT A Is it possible that I may owe taxes in excess of the amount that the company withholds on my behalf? Yes. It is possible that the amount that the company withholds on your behalf will be less than the amount that you will actually owe. This may be the case if your total taxable income for the year exceeds the amount of income that is used in setting a tax withholding rate for you. This situation may also apply if the statutory rate that we are required to use is lower than the rate that applies to you. For example, the maximum rate in California is 13.3%, but we can only withhold taxes at a 10.23% rate. Both of these situations, for example, might occur if you’re a U.S. and California tax resident and filing a joint return, because withholding on your income from the company will not take into account your joint filer’s income. Is it possible that the amount of taxes that I owe exceeds the value of shares that I own after the end of the lock-up period? Yes. If our stock depreciates significantly following the IPO, it is possible that the amount of tax liability for the shares that vested and settled at the time of the IPO or any subsequent vesting and release event after the IPO may exceed the value of the shares that an individual owns at such time. Although we believe the chances of this are unlikely since the shares would have to depreciate significantly (e.g., more than 75% from the IPO price), this is still a possibility. Employees are strongly encouraged to consult with their tax advisors regarding their personal tax situation. The company accelerated the settlement of the RSUs to the IPO. Why did it make this decision? We accelerated the settlement of the RSUs to the IPO for a few reasons: ● Uber is required by law to withhold taxes from you when your RSUs vest and are settled, depending on the jurisdiction (similarly to how taxes may be withheld from your paycheck). The company has two methods to do this: (1) by holding back a portion of your vested shares and paying the taxes out of its own capital, or (2) by selling a portion of the vested shares issuable to you into the market to raise funds to cover the taxes. The company has elected the first option for the shares vesting upon IPO to reduce the amount of the outstanding shares flowing into the market, which could put downward pressure on our stock price. ● Accelerating the settlement to the IPO locks in the amount of taxes the company would have to pay on behalf of employees. This is important to mitigate the risk that the company could be responsible for paying a significantly higher amount in taxes if the stock price increases meaningfully after the IPO. ● From an employee perspective, the accelerated settlement of RSUs may start the capital gains holding period in some jurisdictions earlier than if the company waited until the end of the lockup period to settle the RSUs and issue shares. This would also lock in the amount of taxes owed on the RSUs at IPO in some jurisdictions, which may be beneficial if the stock price increases post-IPO. EXHIBIT B
