Subject to your performance, you also will be eligible to receive ongoing equity grants with a target annual value of $10,000,000.00 based on your initial title issued in RSUs subject to vesting. Ongoing equity will begin vesting no earlier than the full vesting of your four-year new hire RSUs.
All equity grants are subject to approval by the Board and will be awarded pursuant to the Plan and any Company compensation program.
You are being offered employment at the Company because of the personal skills and experience you have, not because of any confidential, proprietary, or trade-secret information of a former or current employer you may have. In your work for the Company, we do not want you to use or disclose any such confidential, proprietary, or trade-secret information. Likewise, as an employee of the Company, you may learn about confidential, proprietary, or trade-secret information related to the Company and its clients. To protect the interests of both the Company and its clients, all employees are required to read and sign the enclosed Confidential Information and Inventions Assignment Agreement as a condition of employment at the Company. Also enclosed for you to review and then sign as a condition of employment are the Conflict of Interest Agreement, the Acknowledgement of At-Will Employment, and our Arbitration Agreement, which provides that all disputes arising out of your employment must be resolved through binding arbitration. We encourage you to read all these documents carefully, and to seek independent legal counsel if you have any questions about the meaning or scope of these documents.
Snap Inc. is a dynamic and iterative company and as such, our programs and practices may change from time to time at the Company’s sole discretion. This includes changes to the total rewards package described above. The Company may change your position, duties, and work location from time to time at its discretion. As a Snap Inc. employee, you will be expected to follow Company policies and acknowledge in writing that you have read our Employee Handbook. With the exception of the “employment at-will” policy discussed below, the Company may modify or eliminate its policies at its discretion.
Your employment with the Company is at-will. This means you may terminate your employment with the Company at any time and for any reason whatsoever simply by notifying us. Likewise, the Company may terminate your employment at any time or change the terms and conditions of your employment, with or without cause or notice. By signing below, you agree to the at-will nature of your employment and acknowledge that this paragraph describing the at-will nature of your employment supersedes any other agreements or promises made to you by anyone, whether written or oral. Your employment at-will status can be modified only in a written agreement signed by an officer of Snap Inc.
If you accept our offer, we would like you to start on the start date stated in the offer summary above.
