PROXY STATEMENT
FOR THE 2022 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON MAY 31, 2022
AT 9:00 A.M. PACIFIC TIME

GENERAL INFORMATION

When is this proxy statement and the accompanying materials scheduled to be sent to stockholders?

We have elected to provide access to our proxy materials to our stockholders via the internet. Accordingly, on or about April 14, 2022, we began mailing a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to our stockholders containing instructions on how to access our proxy materials, including our proxy statement and our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, or the Annual Report. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials also instructs you on how to submit your proxy or voting instructions through the internet or to request a paper copy of our proxy materials, including a proxy card or voting instruction form that includes instructions on how to submit your proxy or voting instructions by mail or telephone. For shares held in street name (held for your account by a broker or other nominee), you will receive a voting instruction form from your broker or nominee. The Annual Report is available on the Investor Relations section of our website at https://investors.momentus.space/financial-information/annual-reports.

Why did I receive a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials instead of a full set of proxy materials?

Pursuant to rules adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, we are providing access to our proxy materials over the internet rather than printing and mailing the proxy materials. We believe electronic delivery will expedite the receipt of materials, lower our costs and reduce the environmental impact of our annual meeting materials. Therefore, a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will be mailed to holders of record and beneficial owners of our common stock starting on or around April 14, 2022. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will provide instructions as to how stockholders may access and review the proxy materials, including the Notice of Annual Meeting, proxy statement, proxy card and Annual Report, on the website referred to in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or, alternatively, how to request a copy of the proxy materials, including a proxy card, by mail. The Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials will also provide voting instructions. In addition, stockholders of

1

record may request to receive the proxy materials for future stockholder meetings in printed form by mail, or electronically by email, on an ongoing basis. Please note that while our proxy materials are available at the website referenced in the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials, and our Notice of Annual Meeting, proxy statement and Annual Report are available on our website, no other information contained on either website is incorporated by reference in, or considered to be a part of, this document.

Who is soliciting my vote?

The Board of Directors of Momentus Inc. is soliciting your vote for the 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

We will be hosting our Annual Meeting via live webcast only. Any stockholder can attend the Annual Meeting live online by registering at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MNTS2022. In order to attend the Annual Meeting, you must register in advance at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MNTS2022 no later than 11:59 p.m. eastern time on May 30, 2022 and provide the control number located on your Notice of Internet Availability or proxy card.

The webcast will start at 9:00 a.m. pacific time on May 31, 2022.

What are the Board of Directors’ recommendations on how to vote my shares?

The Board of Directors recommends a vote:

Proposal 1:   FOR election of the three Class I director nominees (page 7).

Proposal 2:   FOR ratification of the selection of Armanino LLP as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm (page 33).

Who pays the cost for soliciting proxies?

The Company will pay the cost for the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors. The solicitation of proxies will be made primarily by mail and through internet access to materials. Proxies may also be solicited personally, by telephone, fax or email by employees of the Company without any remuneration to such individuals other than their regular compensation. The Company will also reimburse brokers, banks, custodians, other nominees, and fiduciaries for forwarding these materials to their principals to obtain the authorization for the execution of proxies.

Will my shares be voted if I do not return my proxy?

If your shares are registered directly in your name, you are a “stockholder of record” who may vote at the Annual Meeting. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to direct the voting of your shares by voting over the internet, by telephone, by returning your proxy or by voting online during the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are held in an account at a bank or at a brokerage firm or other nominee holder, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in “street name,” and these proxy materials are being forwarded to you by your bank, broker or other nominee who is considered the stockholder of record for purposes of voting at the Annual Meeting. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your bank, broker or other nominee on how to vote your shares and to participate in the Annual Meeting. You will receive instructions from your bank, broker or other nominee explaining how you can vote your shares and whether they permit internet or telephone voting. Follow the instructions from your bank, broker or other nominee included with these proxy materials, or contact your bank, broker or other nominee to request a proxy form. We encourage you to provide voting instructions to your bank, broker or other nominee by giving your proxy to them. This ensures that your shares will be voted at the Annual Meeting according to your instructions. If you want to vote in person virtually at the Annual Meeting, you must register in advance at www.virtualshareholdermeeting.com/MNTS2022. You may be instructed to obtain a legal proxy from your broker, bank or other nominee and to submit a copy in advance of the meeting. Further instructions will be provided to you as part of your registration process.

Note that under Nasdaq Capital Market, or Nasdaq, rules, if you hold shares through a bank, broker or other institution and you do not provide your voting instructions to them at least 10 days before the Annual Meeting, that firm has the discretion to vote your shares on proposals that Nasdaq has determined are routine. Such firm will not have the discretion to vote your shares on proposals that Nasdaq has determined are non-routine. For purposes of the proposals in this proxy statement, the election of director nominees is a non-routine matter, and the appointment of an independent registered public accounting firm is a routine matter. A “broker non-vote” refers to a share represented at the meeting held by a broker, as to which

3

instructions have not been received from the beneficial owner or person entitled to vote such shares and with respect to which, on one or more but not all matters, the broker does not have discretionary voting power to vote such share.

Can I change my vote?

You may revoke your proxy at any time before it is voted by notifying the Company’s Secretary in writing, by returning a signed proxy with a later date, by transmitting a subsequent vote over the internet or by telephone prior to the close of the internet voting facility or the telephone voting facility. You may also attend the virtual meeting and vote during the meeting. If your stock is held in street name, you must contact your broker or nominee for instructions as to how to change your vote.

How is a quorum reached?

The presence, by virtual attendance or by proxy, of holders of at least a majority of the total number of outstanding shares entitled to vote is necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares held of record by stockholders or brokers, bankers or other nominees who do not return a signed and dated proxy or attend the Annual Meeting virtually will not be considered present or represented at the Annual Meeting and will not be counted in determining the presence of a quorum. Abstentions and broker non-votes, if any, will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present for the transaction of business at the meeting.

What vote is required to approve each item and how are votes counted?

Votes cast by proxy or online at the Annual Meeting will be counted by the persons appointed by the Company to act as tabulators for the meeting. The tabulators will count all votes FOR, AGAINST, abstentions and broker non-votes, as applicable, for each matter to be voted on at the Annual Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes are not counted as votes cast and, therefore, do not have the effect of votes in opposition to such proposals. A broker non-vote occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner.

Proposal 1 — Election of three Class I director nominees

The three nominees for director to receive the highest number of votes FOR election will be elected as directors. This is called a plurality. Proposal 1 is a non-routine matter. Therefore, if your shares are held by your brokerage firm in street name and you do not timely provide voting instructions with respect to your shares, your brokerage firm cannot vote your shares on Proposal 1. Shares held in street name by banks, brokerage firms or other nominees who indicate on their proxies that they do not have authority to vote the shares on Proposal 1 will not be counted as votes FOR or WITHHELD from any nominee. As a result, such “broker non-votes” will have no effect on the voting on Proposal 1. You may:

•        vote FOR all nominees;

•        vote FOR one or more nominees and WITHHOLD from other nominees; or

•        WITHHOLD your vote from all nominees.

Votes that are withheld will not be included in the vote tally for the election of the director.

Proposal 2 — Ratification of the selection of Armanino LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2022

To approve Proposal 2, holders of a majority of the votes cast on the matter must vote FOR the proposal. For the ratification of the selection of Armanino LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm for our fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, the votes cast FOR must exceed the votes cast AGAINST. Only FOR and AGAINST votes will affect the outcome. Abstentions will have no effect on the voting of Proposal 2.

4

Proposal 2 is a routine matter. Therefore, if your shares are held by your bank, broker or other nominee in street name and you do not vote your shares, your bank, broker or other nominee may vote your shares on Proposal 2.

If there are insufficient votes to approve Proposals 1 or2, your proxy may be voted by the persons named in the proxy to adjourn the Annual Meeting in order to solicit additional proxies in favor of the approval of such proposal. If the Annual Meeting is adjourned or postponed for any purpose, at any subsequent reconvening of the meeting, your proxy will be voted in the same manner as it would have been voted at the original convening of the Annual Meeting unless you withdraw or revoke your proxy. Your proxy may be voted in this manner even though it may have been voted on the same or any other matter at a previous session of the Annual Meeting.

Could other matters be decided at the Annual Meeting?

The Company does not know of any other matters that may be presented for action at the Annual Meeting. Should any other business come before the meeting, the persons named on the enclosed proxy will have discretionary authority to vote the shares represented by such proxies in accordance with their best judgment. If you hold shares through a broker, bank or other nominee as described above, they will not be able to vote your shares on any other business that comes before the Annual Meeting unless they receive instructions from you with respect to such matter.

What happens if the meeting is postponed or adjourned?

Your proxy may be voted at the postponed or adjourned meeting. You will still be able to change your proxy until it is voted.

How can I find out the results of the voting at the Annual Meeting?

Preliminary voting results will be announced at the Annual Meeting. Final voting results will be published in a Current Report on Form 8-K, or Form 8-K, that we expect to file with the SEC within four business days after the Annual Meeting. If final voting results are not available to us in time to file a Form 8-K within four business days after the Annual Meeting, we intend to file a Form 8-K to publish preliminary results and, within four business days after the final results are known to us, file an additional Form 8-K to publish the final results.

What does it mean if I receive more than one proxy card or voting instruction form?

It means that you have multiple accounts at the transfer agent or with brokers. Please complete and return all proxy cards or voting instruction forms to ensure that all of your shares are voted.

What if I have technical difficulties or trouble accessing the Annual Meeting?

If you encounter any technical difficulties with the virtual meeting platform on the meeting day, please call the technical support number that will be posted on the virtual Annual Meeting log-in page. Technical support will be available starting at 9.00 a.m. pacific time on May 31, 2022 and will remain available until the Annual Meeting has ended.

What are the implications of being an “emerging growth company” and “smaller reporting company”?

We are an emerging growth company, as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of

5

holding nonbinding advisory votes on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. We will remain an emerging growth company until the earliest of (i) the last day of the fiscal year (a) in which we are deemed to be a “large accelerated filer” under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion, or (c) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of our initial public offering; or (ii) the date on which we have issued more than $1 billion in non-convertible debt in the prior three-year period.

We are also a “smaller reporting company,” meaning that the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million and our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year. We may continue to be a smaller reporting company if either (i) the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $250 million or (ii) our annual revenue was less than $100 million during the most recently completed fiscal year and the market value of our stock held by non-affiliates is less than $700 million. If we are a smaller reporting company at the time we cease to be an emerging growth company, we may continue to rely on exemptions from certain disclosure requirements that are available to smaller reporting companies.

Specifically, as a smaller reporting company we may choose to present only the two most recent fiscal years of audited financial statements in our Annual Report and, similar to emerging growth companies, smaller reporting companies have reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation.

Who should I contact if I have any additional questions?

If you hold your shares directly, please contract an investor relations representative at investors@momentus.space. If your shares are held in street name, please contact the telephone number provided on your voting instruction form or contact your broker or nominee holder directly.

Proposal 1 — Election of Directors

The Board of Directors has nominated the following individuals for election as Class I directors of the Company’s Board of Directors to serve until the 2025 Annual Meeting and until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until the individual’s earlier of death, resignation, or removal:

Brian Kabot

Mitchel B. Kugler

Kimberly A. Reed

Each of the above individuals is currently serving as a director of the Company. Biographical information for each nominee is contained in the “Board of Directors and Corporate Governance” section below.

The Board of Directors has no reason to believe that any of its nominees will be unable or unwilling to serve if elected. If a director nominee becomes unable or unwilling to accept nomination or election, either the number of the Company’s directors will be reduced or the persons acting under the proxy will vote for the election of a substitute director nominee that the Board of Directors recommends.

Vote Required

The election of directors in this Proposal 1 requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes validly cast at the election. Neither abstentions nor broker non-votes will have any effect on the outcome of voting on director elections.

Recommendation

The Board of Directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote FOR the election of each of the director nominees.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

Board of Directors

The primary responsibilities of the Board of Directors are to provide oversight, strategic guidance, counseling and direction to the Company’s management. When considering whether directors and director nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, taken as a whole, to enable the board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of its business and structure, the board will focus primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth below in order to provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of its business. The board is divided into three classes, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. The board held 3 meetings in the 2021 fiscal year, which were each attended by all of the directors of the board.

The following table sets forth information with respect to our current directors:

•        Class III consists of Linda J. Reiners and Victorino G. Mercado, whose terms will expire at the Company’s third annual meeting of stockholders.

At each annual meeting of stockholders, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. Directors may be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Company’s voting stock.

Corporate Governance

Director Composition

As illustrated by the director biographies on the previous pages, our board is made up of a diverse group of leaders with substantial experience in their respective fields. We believe that diversity in our board’s composition, skills, qualifications and experiences contributes to an effective and well-functioning board. As such, we believe that the board possesses the necessary qualifications to provide effective oversight and insightful strategic guidance for the Company.

We regularly review our board’s composition to identify the skills needed for our Company both in the near term and into the future. We highly value diversity in composition, experience and skills in evaluating and recommending new directors for our board. Ongoing strategic board succession planning assures that the board continues to maintain an appropriate mix of objectivity, skills and experiences to provide fresh perspectives and effective oversight and guidance to management, while leveraging the institutional knowledge and historical perspective of more experienced directors.

Director Independence

Each of the directors on the Board of Directors, other than John C. Rood, qualifies as an independent director, as defined under Nasdaq listing rules, and the board consists of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq listing rules relating to director independence requirements. In addition, we are subject to the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq relating to the membership, qualifications, and operations of the Audit Committee, as discussed below.

Hedging Prohibitions

Our Insider Trading Policy prohibits our directors, officers, employees or designated contractors from purchasing any financial instruments, including variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars or exchange funds, or otherwise engaging in any transactions that hedge or offset any decrease in the market value of the Company’s securities.

Communications with the Board

Any matter intended for the board, or for any individual member of the board, should be directed to Momentus Inc., 3901 N. First Street, San Jose, California 95134, Attention: Corporate Secretary, with a request to forward the communication to the intended recipient. In general, any stockholder communication delivered to the Company for forwarding to board members will be forwarded in accordance with the stockholder’s instructions. The Company reserves the right not to forward to board members any abusive, threatening or otherwise inappropriate materials.

11

Board Leadership Structure

The board has determined that it should maintain the flexibility to select the Chair of the Board of Directors of the Company and adjust its board leadership structure based on circumstances existing from time to time and based on criteria that are in the Company’s best interests and the best interests of our stockholders, including the composition, skills, diversity and experience of the board and its members, specific challenges faced by the Company or the industry in which we operate and governance efficiency. The board has adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, which provides for the appointment of a lead independent director at any time when the Chairperson is not independent. As Mr. Rood, our Chief Executive Officer, is the Chairperson of the board, the board has appointed Linda J. Reiners as lead independent director.

Security Director

Under our National Security Agreement (the “NSA”), the board must include a director who is approved by the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies. This director, referred to as the “Security Director,” has a fiduciary duty, to the extent consistent with his or her fiduciary duties to the Company and its stockholders under Delaware law, to the U.S. government. The Security Director serves as the primary liaison between the Board of Directors and the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and has authority to oversee compliance with the NSA. To the extent that the Security Director believes that a conflict of interest is reasonably likely to exist between her or his fiduciary duties under Delaware law to the Company and/or its stockholders and to the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies, the Security Director is required to promptly inform the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies of such conflict. The Security Director is the sole member of the Security Committee of the Board of Directors and has the power to effect the following actions:

•        In the Security Committee’s sole discretion, remove and replace any officer or employee of the Company;

•        Review all contracts with customers, third-party vendors and service providers, and all contracts related to certain technical relationships and protected technical information to ensure they comport with the obligations under the NSA; and

•        In the Security Committee’s sole discretion, block or terminate any contract that the Security Committee determines could reasonably be expected to allow for actions contrary to the NSA, including provisions that the Security Committee determines could reasonably be expected to provide certain parties identified in the NSA with access to protected technical information or could reasonably be expected to cause the transfer of protected technical information in a manner harmful to U.S. national security.

The Security Director is also a member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Any individual nominated by the Board of Directors to serve as a director must be approved by the Security Director. Thus, no person can be nominated to serve as a director of the Company without the approval of the Security Director.

In addition to the powers above, the Security Director has the following responsibilities:

•        Provide timely responses to inquiries from the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and maintain availability, upon reasonable notice from the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies, for discussions with the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies on matters related to the Company’s governance and compliance with the NSA;

•        Develop the annual budget for third-party services and other expenses necessary for the Company to perform its obligations under the NSA and the arrangements that set forth the terms for certain parties identified in the NSA relinquishing their ability to direct the voting of interests in the Company;

•       Review and approve any proposed amendments to the security plan and communications plan required by the NSA, prior to submission of the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies, and any policies and procedures adopted by the Company pursuant thereto, in each case in the Security Director’s sole discretion;

12

•       Consult with the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies on nominations to the board and exercise this authority in the Security Director’s sole discretion, subject to such consultation with the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies;

•        Serve as the primary liaison between the board and the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and provide timely responses to inquiries from the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and maintain availability, upon reasonable notice from the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies, for discussions with the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies on matters relating to the Company’s governance and compliance with the NSA; and

•        Report any actual or potential violation of the NSA to the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and the third-party monitor within 24 hours of discovery.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that the Security Director may only be removed for cause and with the approval of the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies and at least two-thirds of the voting power of the then outstanding shares of capital stock of the Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting as a single class.

In addition, as required by the NSA, if the Security Director recommends that a director be removed from the board due to an identified national security concern, as determined by the Security Director in consultation with the CFIUS Monitoring Agencies, the board must ask for the resignation of such director. If such director does not resign, the board must call a special meeting of stockholders to vote on the removal of such director. Pending such vote, we are required to ensure that such director does not receive any protected technical information of the Company.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

One of the key functions of the board is informed oversight of the Company’s risk management process. This oversight function is administered directly through the board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, the board is responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure and the Company’s Audit Committee has the responsibility to consider and discuss the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps its management will take to monitor and control such exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The Audit Committee also monitors compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Compensation Committee assesses and monitors whether the Company’s compensation plans, policies and programs comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee monitors the effectiveness of Company’s governance guidelines.

Committees of the Board of Directors

The Company has an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee and a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, each of which has the composition and responsibilities described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the Board of Directors. Each committee operates under a charter approved by the board. Copies of each charter are posted on the Investor Relations section of our website at https://momentus.space. In addition to these committees, the Board has a Security Committee and a Disclosure Committee as described below.

Audit Committee

The members of the Audit Committee are Linda J. Reiners, Kimberly A. Reed and Mitchel B. Kugler. Ms. Reiners is the Chair of the committee. Each member meets the requirements for independence and financial literacy under the current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations, including Rule 10A-3. Ms. Reiners qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” within the meaning of Item 407(d) of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This designation does not impose any duties, obligations, or liabilities that are greater than are generally imposed on members of the Audit Committee and the board.

•        administering the Company’s cash and equity-based incentive plans that are stockholder-approved and/or where participants include the Company’s executive officers and directors; and

•        providing oversight of and recommending improvements to the Company’s overall compensation and incentive plans and benefit programs.

The Compensation Committee’s charter provides that it may delegate authority to one or more subcommittees or one or more officers of the Company. If the Compensation Committee delegates authority to an officer of the Company, such officer will not be delegated any authority that relates to the amount or form of compensation of “officers” as defined in Section 16 of the Exchange Act, which includes the authority related to the administration of compensation and incentive plans and benefit programs.

The charter also provides that the Compensation Committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser to assist in the evaluation of CEO or executive officer compensation at the Company’s expense, and is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the Compensation Committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

During the fiscal year ended 2021, the Compensation Committee directly engaged Frederic W. Cook & Co., Inc. (“F.W. Cook”) as a compensation consultant to provide advice and recommendations on the amount and form of executive and non-employee director compensation. F.W. Cook did not provide additional services to the Company in excess of $120,000.

As set out in its charter, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for the consideration of stockholder-proposed director nominees for election to the board. The Company’s amended and restated bylaws specifically provides the procedures to be followed by stockholders submitting such recommendations. For more information regarding the process and procedures stockholders are required to follow in submitting director nominees, see “Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations other than Pursuant to Rule 14a-8” on page 36.

Narrative to the Summary Compensation Table

The following is a discussion of certain terms of the employment agreements with our NEOs that we believe are necessary to understand the information disclosed in the Summary Compensation Table.

Base Salaries

The Company’s NEOs receive a base salary for services rendered to the Company. The base salary payable to each NEO is intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive’s skill set, experience, role and responsibilities.

Bonuses

In fiscal year 2021, Mr.Rood, Mr.Kim and Dr. Kennedy were eligible to earn discretionary annual cash bonuses targeted at 100%, 30% and 50%, respectively, of their respective base salaries based on their performance, as determined by the Momentus Board of Directors. In addition, Mr.Rood was eligible for a 2021 cash bonus amount, which was prorated based on the number of days during fiscal year 2021 that Mr.Rood was employed.

Equity Compensation

Our Compensation Committee administers our 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and approves the amount of, and terms applicable to, grants of stock options, RSUs, and other types of equity awards to employees, including the Named Executive Officers.

The Equity Incentive Plan is intended to (i) attract and retain the best available personnel to ensure our success and accomplish our goals; (ii) incentivize employees, directors and independent contractors with long-term equity-based compensation to align their interests with our stockholders; and (iii) promote the success of our business.

The Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, RSUs and stock bonus awards (all such types of awards, collectively, “equity awards”), although incentive stock options may only be granted to employees.

For the grant date fair values of the options and RSUs, please see the Summary Compensation Table above.

Perquisites

In 2021, Momentus provided its NEOs with benefits intended to be competitive with market practices and to motivate them to carry out their duties with respect to the Company. Some of these benefits are provided under the NEOs’ employment agreements, as described below. The amount of these benefits has been included in the Summary Compensation Table in the “All Other Compensation” column.

Momentus pays the entire premiums associated with its NEOs’ medical insurance coverage; because the Company does not pay the entire premium with respect to the medical insurance coverage of employees generally, the amounts associated with the additional percentage paid by the Company have been included in the Summary Compensation Table in the “All Other Compensation” column.

The Company has established a 401(k) plan which covers all employees. Participants may make voluntary contributions to the plan subject to Internal Revenue Service limitations. The Company does not provide a matching contribution. Momentus also provides other benefits to its NEOs on the same basis as provided to all of its employees, including vacation and paid holidays.

The policy is designed to attract and retain high quality non-employee directors by providing competitive compensation and align their interests with the interests of stockholders through equity awards. It will cover the compensation of all roles on the Board of Directors other than the Security Director and the Chairperson of the Security Committee.

Specifically, the policy provides for the following annual cash retainers, which will be payable quarterly in arrears and pro-rated for partial quarters of service:

Annual Board Member Service Retainer

•        All Outside Directors: $100,000

•        Outside Director serving as Lead Independent Director: $30,000 (in addition to above)

Annual Committee Member Service Retainer

•        Chairperson of the Compensation Committee: $22,500

•        Chairperson of the Disclosure Committee: $22,500

Equity Compensation Beginning at the 2022 Annual Stockholder Meeting

Non-employee directors will receive RSU grants under the Equity Incentive Plan on and after the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting, annually and upon the beginning of service, which will vest, subject to continuous service through the applicable vesting date:

•        RSUs initially valued at $350,000 upon initial election or appointment to board, which will vest in three equal annual installments from the date of grant; and

•        Additional RSUs initially valued at $250,000 annually, which will vest upon the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the day before the next annual stockholder meeting, prorated for partial years of service (including the initial year of service).

Transitional Equity Grants

Prior to the 2022 Annual Meeting, in lieu of the RSU grants described above, non-employee directors will receive transitional RSU grants upon the following terms under the Equity Incentive Plan, which will vest, subject to continuous service through the applicable vesting date:

•       Non-employee directors who served after the Closing of the Business Combination (as defined in “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions — Support Agreement”) (but before the 2022 Annual Meeting) were granted RSUs initially valued at $350,000, which will vest in three equal annual installments from the date of the Closing.

24

•       Non-employee directors who served on or after the Closing of the Business Combination were granted RSUs initially valued at $250,000 multiplied by the number of whole months that the non-employee director will have served from the period beginning on the Closing of the Business Combination and ending on June1, 2022, divided by 12. The RSUs will vest upon the earlier to occur of June1, 2022 and the day before the Annual Meeting.

Accelerated Vesting

The vesting of the RSU grants will accelerate in full if the non-employee director remains in continuous service until immediately prior to such director’s: (i) death, (ii) “disability,” or (iii) the closing of a “change in control” (as “disability” and “change in control” are defined in the Equity Incentive Plan).

Other Terms

To avoid adverse tax consequences to non-employee directors who reside outside of the United States, the board, in its sole discretion, may provide for non-statutory stock options of equal value in lieu of RSU grants, which will have a term of ten years from the date of grant and an exercise price per share equal to 100% of the fair market value of the underlying Class A common stock on the date of grant. All other terms and conditions that apply to RSU grants under the non-employee director compensation policy will apply to such options.

If permitted by the Company, a non-employee director may elect to defer cash retainers and/or RSU awards prior to being earned into deferred stock units of the Company, which shall settle upon the earlier to occur of the director’s “separation from service” as defined in the Treasury Regulations under Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the date determined by the Company.

The Company will reimburse each non-employee director for ordinary, necessary and reasonable out-of-pocket travel expenses to cover in-person attendance at, and participation in, Board of Directors and committee meetings, provided they are reimbursed in accordance with the Company’s travel and expense policy.

Security Director and Chairperson of Security Committee

In addition to compensation under the non-employee director compensation policy, Victorino G. Mercado, as the Security Director and the Chairperson of the Security Committee, will receive additional compensation pursuant to the terms of his offer letter. Mr. Mercado will receive an annual cash retainer of $50,000, payable quarterly in arrears and pro-rated for partial quarters of service. In addition, for the first three months of his service in those roles (which may be further extended if warranted by the duties), Mr. Mercado is entitled to a monthly cash retainer of $20,834. The board approved an extension of Mr. Mercado’s monthly cash retainer payments until June 30, 2022.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners

The following table sets forth certain information known to us regarding the beneficial ownership of our Class A common stock as of April 4, 2022 for each of our NEOs, executive officers, directors, all executive officers and directors as a group and each person known by us to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of our Class A common stock. Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she, or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security. Under those rules, beneficial ownership includes securities that the individual or entity has the right to acquire, such as through the exercise of warrants or stock options or the vesting of RSUs, within 60 days of April 4, 2022. Class A common stock subject to warrants or options that are currently exercisable or exercisable within 60 days of April 4, 2022 or subject to RSUs that vest within 60 days of April 4, 2022 are considered outstanding and beneficially owned by the person holding such warrants, options or RSUs for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of that person but are not treated as outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person. Except as noted by footnote, and subject to community property laws where applicable, based on the information provided to us, we believe that the persons and entities named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to all shares shown as beneficially owned by them. Unless otherwise noted, the business address of each of our directors and executive officers is c/o Momentus Inc., 3901 N. First Street, San Jose, California 95134. The percentage of beneficial ownership of our shares of Class A common stock is calculated based on 81,762,269shares of Class A common stock outstanding as of April 4, 2022.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with the Closing, the Company, the Sponsor, SRAC PIPE Partners LLC (“SRAC Partners”), Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor” together with the Sponsor and SRAC Partners, the “Existing Holders”) and PML, Momentus PML SPV 1, L.P. and Momentus PML SPV 2 LP (collectively, the “Momentus Holders” and together with the Existing Holders, the “Registration Rights Holders”) entered into an Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of August 12, 2021 (the “Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement”). Under the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is obligated to file a registration statement with the SEC to register the resale of certain shares of the Company’s Class A common stock held by the Registration Rights Holders, in addition to private placement warrants held by the Existing Holders and shares of the Company’s Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the private placement warrants.

The Company agreed to use its reasonable best efforts to have the registration statement become effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof but in no event later than the earlier of (i) 60 days following the filing deadline (or 90 days after the filing deadline if the registration statement is reviewed by, and receives comments from, the SEC) and (ii) five business days after the date the Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the SEC that the registration statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. In addition, pursuant to the terms of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement and subject to certain requirements and customary conditions, the Registration Rights Holders are entitled to make up to three demands for registration in the aggregate and that the Company register shares of Class A common stock held by these parties. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement also provides “piggy-back” registration rights to such stockholders and their permitted transferees, subject to certain requirements and customary conditions.

Additionally, the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement contains certain restrictions on transfer with respect to the shares of Class A common stock held by the Existing Holders immediately following the Closing (not including the shares of Class A common stock issued in the PIPE Investment pursuant to the terms of the Subscription Agreements), including (a) in the case of the Existing Holders a lock-up of shares of the Class A common stock held by the Existing Holders as a result of the conversion of founder shares (“Founder Shares”) into the Class A common stock immediately prior to the Closing, on the earlier of (i) six months after the Closing Date or (ii) the first date the closing price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after Closing Date or (iii) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property, and (b) in the case of certain Class A common stock and warrants to purchase Class A common stock held by the Sponsor and Cantor or their permitted transferees, the period ended 30 days after the Closing Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to SRAC Partners, only the 176,471 shares of Class A common stock held by SRAC PIPE Partners LLC that were converted from Founder Shares are subject to a lock-up.

The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement amends and restates the registration rights agreement that was entered into by SRAC, the Sponsor and the other parties thereto in connection with SRAC’s initial public offering. The Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement will terminate on the earlier of (i) the tenth anniversary of the date of the Amended and Registration Rights Agreement,

Pre-Business Combination Related Party Transactions of SRAC

In February 2021, Stable Road Capital LLC and DIBALYD Investments, an affiliate of Nala Investments, each loaned $300,000 to SRAC pursuant to non-interest-bearing promissory notes (the “Notes”) in order to finance transaction and working capital costs. On July 14, 2021, SRAC entered into amendments to the Notes with Stable Road Capital LLC and DIBALYD Investments, pursuant to which the principal amount of the Notes was increased from $300,000 to $1,350,000. The Notes specified that they were to mature upon the earlier of August 31, 2021 or the consummation of SRAC’s initial Business Combination.

SRAC paid Stable Road Capital LLC, an affiliate of the Sponsor, a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and administrative support. After the completion of SRAC’s initial Business Combination, SRAC ceased paying these monthly fees.

On July 15, 2021, Stable Road Capital LLC and Nala Investments LLC entered into amendments to their Subscription Agreements pursuant to which SRAC will also issue them, and certain other investors (the “PIPE Investors”), at the closing of the purchase of an aggregate of 11,000,000shares of Class A common stock, warrants to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share (subject to adjustment as described in the Warrant Agreement) for each share of Class A common stock purchased pursuant to such Subscription Agreement.

Pre-Business Combination Related Party Transactions of Legacy Momentus

Legacy Momentus issued Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) notes totaling approximately $20.5 million to affiliates of PML in 2021. The SAFE notes provided PML’s affiliates the right to certain shares of Legacy Momentus’ capital stock upon an equity financing. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each SAFE note that was outstanding was automatically converted into the right to receive the aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration payable in accordance with the terms of such applicable SAFE note in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each SAFE note so converted was immediately thereafter terminated in accordance with its terms.

Indemnification Agreements

Our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation contains provisions limiting the liability of executive officers and directors, and our amended and restated bylaws provide that the Company will indemnify each of its officers and directors to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law.

We have entered into indemnification agreements with all of our directors and executive officers and certain other key employees. The indemnification agreements provide that the Company will indemnify each of its directors and executive officers against any and all expenses incurred by such director or executive officer because of his or her status as one of the Company’s directors or executive officers to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, our second amended and restated certificate of incorporation and our amended and restated bylaws. In addition, the indemnification agreements provide that, to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law, the Company will advance all expenses incurred by its directors and executive officers in connection with a legal proceeding involving his or her status as a director or executive officer.

Related Party Transactions Policy

After the Business Combination, the board adopted a written related party transactions policy. The policy provides that officers, directors, holders of more than 5% of any class of the Company’s voting securities, and any member of the immediate family of, and any entity affiliated with, any of the foregoing persons, will not be permitted to enter into a related-party transaction with the Company without the prior consent of the Audit Committee, or other independent members of the board in the event it is inappropriate for the Audit Committee to review such transaction due to a conflict of interest. Any request for the Company to enter into a transaction with an executive officer, director, principal stockholder, or any of their immediate family members or affiliates, in which the amount involved exceeds $120,000, must first be presented to the Audit Committee for review, consideration and approval. In approving or rejecting the proposed transactions, the Audit Committee will take into account all of the relevant facts and circumstances available.

Proposal 2 — Ratification of Appointment of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation (including final approval of audit and other fees), retention and oversight of the independent registered public accounting firm that audits our financial statements and our internal control over financial reporting. The Audit Committee has appointed Armanino LLP (“Armanino”) as the independent registered public accounting firm to audit our consolidated financial statements for the year ending December 31, 2022, including the audit of our internal control over financial reporting. Representatives of Armanino are expected to be present at the Annual Meeting and will be offered the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire. They will also be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The Audit Committee annually reviews Armanino’s independence and performance in deciding whether to retain Armanino or engage an alternative independent auditor. As part of this review, the Audit Committee, among other factors, considers the following:

•        Armanino’s historical and recent performance, including input from Audit Committee members, other independent directors and our management.

•        Armanino’s expertise and qualifications in serving as independent auditor for our different business operations.

•        A review of Armanino’s known legal risks and any significant legal or regulatory proceedings in which it is involved.

•        Other information on audit quality and performance including recent Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (the “PCAOB”) reports on Armanino and its peer firms.

•        Armanino’s tenure as our independent auditor, periodic rotation of the lead partner and engagement quality review partner, and the benefits of continuity of members of the engagement team. Continuity provides institutional knowledge and experience in performing the audit of the Company.

•        Armanino’s conclusion that they are independent with respect to serving as our independent auditor.

In addition to Armanino’s conclusion that they are independent, the Audit Committee believes that Armanino is independent and that there are controls and processes that help ensure such independence including the following: (a) Audit Committee oversight of Armanino includes at least four private meetings each year and an additional four private meetings with the Audit Committee Chair prior to each quarterly Audit Committee meeting; (b) Audit Committee interaction with, and review of, the industry and other qualifications of the lead partner and of the concurring partner including periodic rotation of such partners; (c) oversight of non-audit services that require preapproval by the Audit Committee precludes certain non-audit services and determines that Armanino is an appropriate service provider; (d) discussions with Armanino regarding their internal system of quality control including the firm’s internal quality reviews and procedures for maintaining independence with regard to audit clients; and (e) the overall regulatory framework and regulations and requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC that Armanino is subject to as an independent registered public accounting firm.

We are asking you to ratify the selection of Armanino as our independent registered public accounting firm for the 2022 fiscal year. Although ratification is not required by our bylaws or otherwise, the board is submitting the selection of Armanino to our stockholders for ratification because we value your views on our independent registered public accounting firm and as a matter of good corporate practice. In the event that our stockholders fail to ratify the selection, it will be considered as a direction to the Audit Committee to consider the selection of a different firm. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of us and our stockholders.

Audit Committee Report

The Audit Committee annually reviews the performance of its duties under its charter. The charter complies with all current regulatory requirements, including requirements pertaining to the Nasdaq listing standards definitions, provisions and applicable exceptions concerning the independence of audit committee members.

In 2021, the Audit Committee held 1 meeting. The Audit Committee’s meeting agendas are established by the Audit Committee Chair, Linda J. Reiners. The Audit Committee met with the senior members of the Company’s financial management team prior to each meeting.

The Audit Committee appointed Armanino as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the year ended December 31, 2021, and reviewed with the Company’s financial managers, the independent registered public accounting firm, and the Company’s internal auditor, overall audit scopes and plans, the results of internal and external controls and the quality of the Company’s financial reporting.

The Company’s management is primarily responsible for the preparation, presentation and integrity of the Company’s financial statements, accounting and financial reporting principles, internal controls, and procedures designed to ensure compliance with accounting standards, applicable laws and regulations. As the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, Armanino is responsible for performing an independent audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and for expressing an opinion on the conformity of the audited financial statements to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed with management the Company’s audited financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021. The Audit Committee has also discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB and the SEC.

The Audit Committee has received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from the independent registered public accounting firm required by the applicable requirements of the PCAOB regarding the independent registered public accounting firm’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence from the Company and its management, and the Audit Committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm such independence. The Audit Committee has also considered whether the independent registered public accounting firm’s provision of non-audit services to the Company is compatible with the auditor’s independence.

Based on the Audit Committee’s reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the board that the audited consolidated financial statements referred to above be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 to be filed with the SEC.

The Audit Committee is composed of are Linda Reiners, Kimberly A. Reed, and Mitchel Kugler.

Vote Required
