Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On December 17, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Lucira Health, Inc. (the “Company”) upon recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of the Board, appointed Alison McCauley as a director of the Company, effective immediately. Ms. McCauley will serve as a Class I director, with an initial term expiring at the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. Ms. McCauley will initially serve on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee.
Pursuant to the Company’s Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Policy”), Ms. McCauley was granted a stock option to purchase 57,665 shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Grant”) in connection with her appointment to the Board, with one-third of the shares subject to the Grant vesting on the one-year anniversary of the grant date, and thereafter one-thirty-sixth of the shares subject to the Grant vesting on a monthly basis, subject to Ms. McCauley’s continuous service as of each such date. If Ms. McCauley remains in continuous service with the Company until immediately prior to the closing of a Change of Control (as defined in the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan), the shares subject to her then-outstanding equity awards will become fully vested immediately prior to the closing of such Change of Control. In addition, in accordance with the Policy, Ms. McCauley will also receive an annual cash retainer of $35,000 for her Board service, and an additional $5,000 for her committee service, both of which will be pro-rated for 2021. In addition, commencing with the Company’s 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, Ms. McCauley will be eligible to receive an annual option grant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock having a value of $110,000 based on the fair market value of the underlying common stock on the date of grant, subject to her continuous service as of each such date.
There were no arrangements or understandings between Ms. McCauley and any other persons pursuant to which she was selected as a director, and there are no related person transactions within the meaning of Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission between Ms. McCauley and the Company required to be disclosed herein.
