On November 10, 2022, Enovix Corporation (the “Company”) announced the appointment of Ajay Marathe as Chief Operating Officer of the Company. Mr. Marathe’s employment as Chief Operating Officer commenced on November 14, 2022.

Previously, Mr. Marathe served as Senior Vice President Operations at Western Digital Technologies, Inc. from October 2021 to August 2021, Chief Operating Officer at Lumileds LLC from November 2011 to October 2021 and Senior Vice President, Operations, at Solaria Corporation from October 2009 to November 2011. Additionally, Mr. Marathe served in various positions at Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. from 1984 to 2007, including Thailand Plant Manager, VP of Operations of the Computation Products group, VP of Operations for all Asian assembly and test and CEO of AMD India LLC.

Pursuant to Mr. Marathe’s offer letter (the “Offer Letter”), Mr. Marathe will receive an annual base salary of $450,000. In addition, Mr. Marathe is eligible for an annual discretionary cash bonus, with a target amount equal to 80% of his base salary, based on the achievement of specific performance goals and subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan and the approval of the Company’s Board of Directors.

Pursuant to the Offer Letter and the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan, the Compensation Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors has granted Mr. Marathe a restricted stock unit award to acquire 833,000 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “RSU Award”) effective as of, and contingent upon the commencement of Mr. Marathe’s employment. 1/5th of the RSU Award will vest after twelve months of Mr. Marathe’s employment, and the remainder shall vest monthly over four years subject to Mr. Marathe’s continuous service to the Company.

If, at least four months after Mr. Marathe commences his employment with the Company, he is terminated by the Company other than for “Cause,” or Mr. Marathe resigns for “Good Reason,” in each case not in connection with a “Change of Control,” provided such termination or resignation constitutes a “Separation from Service” (each capitalized term as defined in the Offer Letter) (either such termination, a “Qualifying Termination”), then subject to Mr. Marathe’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in a form provided by the Company, among other conditions, (i) Mr. Marathe will receive cash severance in an amount equal to nine months’ of Mr. Marathe’s base salary in effect as of his separation date, payable in installments commencing on the Company’s first regular payroll date that is more than 60 days following Mr. Marathe’s separation date; (ii) the Company will continue to pay the cost of Mr. Marathe’s health care coverage in effect as of his separation date for a period of nine months either under the Company’s regular health plan (if permitted), or by paying Mr. Marathe’s COBRA premiums, provided that Mr. Marathe does not obtain health care coverage from another source; (iii) Mr. Marathe will receive a pro-rated amount of his target bonus in effect for the year of termination, payable in a lump sum at the same time annual bonuses are paid to other of the Company’s employees; and (iv) the Company shall accelerate the vesting of the number of then-unvested shares subject to Mr. Marathe’s equity awards that would have vested had his employment continued for 18 months following his separation date ((i) through (iv), the “Severance Benefits”).

If, at any time after Mr. Marathe commences his employment with the Company, in the event of a Qualifying Termination that occurs within the three months preceding or the 12 months following the closing of a Change of Control, subject to Mr. Marathe’s execution and non-revocation of a release of claims in a form provided by the Company, among other conditions, (i) Mr. Marathe will be entitled to receive the Severance Benefits and (ii) the Company shall accelerate the vesting of 75% of the then-unvested shares subject to Mr. Marathe’s equity awards (after taking into account the accelerated vesting as provided in part (iv) of the Severance Benefits).

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Offer Letter, which will be filed as an exhibit to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending January 1, 2023.

Except for the Offer Letter, there is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Marathe and any other person pursuant to which Mr. Marathe was selected as an officer. Mr. Marathe is not a party to any transaction required to be disclosed pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K. In connection with his appointment, Mr. Marathe will execute the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for officers, which was filed as Exhibit 10.20 to the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending January 2, 2022.
