As disclosed in the Original Form 8-K, the Company offered Dr. Weber the opportunity to receive certain benefits if Dr. Weber executes and does not revoke a separation agreement as set forth in her Amended and Restated Employment Agreement with the Company dated January 8, 2026 (the “Employment Agreement”).

The Company hereby amends Item 5.02 of the Original Form 8-K to include the terms of the executed separation agreement. Except as set forth herein, no other disclosure included in the Original Form 8-K is being amended by this Form 8-K/A.

In addition, the Separation Agreement provides for: (x) full acceleration of Dr. Weber’s outstanding option and restricted Stock Unit awards, subject to the approval of the Board’s Compensation Committee, (y) extension of the post-termination exercise period for any of Dr. Weber’s vested stock options as of August 3, 2026, along with the options subject to the acceleration of vesting as described above, to the earlier of August 3, 2027 or the original expiration date of the applicable option, and (z) a payment of a pro-rata portion of the annual incentive compensation that she would otherwise be entitled to receive, if any, based on Company and individual performance for 2026, which will be paid at the same time as annual incentive compensation payments are made to the Company’s active employees for 2026, no later than March 15, 2027. In order to receive the foregoing benefits, Dr. Weber must not revoke the Separation Agreement as set forth in the Employment Agreement.

The foregoing description of the terms and conditions of the Separation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the Separation Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
