2. Equity Compensation.
(a) Each individual who is elected by the Company’s stockholders to serve as a Non- Employee Director at the Company’s Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) (starting with the 2022 Annual Meeting) and each individual who is to continue to serve as a Non- Employee Director following such meeting, whether or not that individual is standing for re- election at that meeting, shall be granted on the date of such Annual Meeting, a restricted stock unit award (each, a “Director RSU Award”) under the Xponential Fitness, Inc. Omnibus Incentive Plan, as may be amended from time to time, or any successor equity plan (the “Plan”). The number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (“Shares”) subject to the Director RSU Award shall be calculated by dividing the Applicable Amount (as defined below) by the average closing selling price per Share at the close of regular hours trading on the New York Stock Exchange for the 10 trading days prior to, and including, the grant date. The Applicable Amount shall mean $89,250, unless determined otherwise by the Board..
The Director RSU Award shall vest upon the Non-Employee Director’s completion of one year of Board service following the grant date; provided, however, that if the Company’s Annual Meeting for the following year occurs prior to the end of the one-year period, the Director RSU Award granted to a Non-Employee Director who serves until such Annual Meeting shall become vested upon such Annual Meeting.
(b) In the event a new Non-Employee Director is elected or appointed to the Board on a date other than at the Company’s Annual Meeting, such Non-Employee Director shall be granted on the date of such election or appointment, a Director RSU Award based on the number of Shares subject to the Director RSU Award granted to each Non-Employee Director at the immediately preceding Annual Meeting pursuant to subsection (a) above, pro-rated based on the period from the date of appointment or election to the date of the next Annual Meeting. Such Director RSU Award shall vest on the date of the next Annual Meeting, provided the Non-Employee Director continues in Board service until such date.
