•The approval of the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan;
•The election of six directors, each to serve until the next annual meeting;
•The ratification of the appointment of Forvis Mazars, LLP, as our independent public accountants for the 2025 fiscal year;
•Advisory vote to approve the compensation of our named executive officers; and
•Advisory vote to approve the frequency of future advisory votes to approve of executive compensation.
Who is entitled to vote at the meeting?
You may vote if you owned Common Stock as of the close of business on April 1, 2025. Each share of Common Stock is entitled to one vote.
How many votes must be present to hold the meeting?
Your shares are counted as present at the meeting if you attend the meeting and vote in person or if you properly return a Proxy by mail. To conduct our meeting, a majority of the combined voting power of our Common Stock as of April 1, 2025, must be present at the meeting. This is referred to as a quorum. On April 1, 2025, there were 19,816,043 outstanding shares of Common Stock entitled to vote.
How do I attend the annual meeting, and will I be able to ask questions?
The annual meeting will be conducted virtually over the Internet. As a stockholder you will need your Control Number to join the meeting. You can obtain your Control Number from the Notice or Proxy card you received from Continental Stock Transfer. If you hold your position through a bank or broker and would like to join the meeting you will need to contact Continental Stock Transfer at 917-262-2373, or proxy@continentalstock.com to obtain a Control Number.

How do I vote?
You can vote in two ways:
•by attending the meeting by visiting the website https://www.cstproxy.com/intellicheck/2025 and use the Control Number provided in the Notice to log in to this website. If you hold your position through a bank or broker and would like to join the meeting you will need to contact Continental Stock Transfer at 917-262-2373, or proxy@continentalstock.com to obtain a Control Number.; or
•by completing, signing and returning the enclosed Proxy Card.
Can I change my mind after I submit my Proxy?
Yes, you may change your mind at any time before a vote is taken at the meeting. You can do this by (1) signing another Proxy with a later date and submitting it in the same manner as the prior Proxy was submitted; (2) if you hold your shares in your name, voting again at the meeting; or (3) if you hold your shares in street name, arranging with your broker to vote your shares at the annual meeting.
What if I return my Proxy Card but do not include voting instructions?
Proxies that are signed and returned but do not include voting instructions will be voted FOR the approval of the appointment of our independent public accountants and will not be voted with respect to the election of the nominated directors, or the advisory votes regarding executive compensation and the frequency of such votes.
What does it mean if I receive more than one Proxy Card?
It means that you have multiple accounts with brokers and/or our transfer agent. Please vote all these shares. We recommend that you contact your broker and/or our transfer agent to consolidate as many accounts as possible under the same name and address. Our transfer agent is Continental Stock Transfer and Trust Company. The transfer agent’s telephone number is (212) 509-4000.
Will my shares be voted if I do not provide my Proxy?
If you hold your shares directly in your own name, they will not be voted if you do not provide a Proxy. Your shares may be voted under certain circumstances if they are held in the name of a brokerage firm. Brokerage firms generally have the authority to vote customers’ unvoted shares on certain “routine” matters, including approval of the appointment of independent public accountants. When a brokerage firm votes its customer’s unvoted shares, these shares are counted for purposes of establishing a quorum. At our meeting, these shares will be counted as voted by the brokerage firm in the approval of the appointment of our independent public accountants.
What vote is required to approve each item?
The affirmative vote of a plurality of the votes present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors at the annual meeting is required for approval of the election of directors. The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting is required for the approval of the Company’s 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan and for the ratification of the appointment of our independent public accountants. The advisory vote to approve executive compensation will be approved, on a non-binding, advisory basis, upon the affirmative vote of the majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. The advisory vote on frequency of approval of executive compensation will be determined, on a non-binding, advisory basis, by the option (one year, two years, or three years) that receives the most votes.
Do we currently have, or do we intend to submit for stockholder approval, any anti-takeover device?
Our Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and other corporate documents do not contain any provisions that contain material anti-takeover aspects. We have no plans or proposals to submit any other amendments to the Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, or other measures in the future that have anti-takeover effects.

Proposal No. 1
APPROVAL OF 2025 OMNIBUS INCENTIVE PLAN
On March 27, 2025 our Board of Directors resolved to adopt and approve Intellicheck’s 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2025 Plan”), subject to approval from our stockholders at our Annual Meeting.
If our stockholders approve the 2025 Plan, (a) 2,000,000 shares of Intellicheck’s common stock will be reserved for issuance under the 2025 Plan (which equates to approximately 10% of our common shares outstanding as of April 1, 2025), plus (b) any shares of common stock underlying any award granted under our 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2015 Plan”), that is outstanding as of the effective date and that, following the effective date, expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of such shares. We expect that the proposed share pool will last approximately three years under our current equity compensation program.
The description set forth below summarizes the principal terms and conditions of the 2025 Plan, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the 2025 Plan, a copy of which is attached to this Proxy Statement.
Purpose of the Plan
The 2025 Plan is intended to enhance Intellicheck’s and its affiliates’ ability to attract and retain highly qualified officers, non-employee directors, key employees, consultants and advisors, and to motivate them to serve Intellicheck and its affiliates and to expend maximum effort to improve the business results and earnings of Intellicheck.
To this end, the 2025 Plan provides for the grant of stock options, stock appreciation rights (SARs), restricted stock, restricted stock units, unrestricted stock, other stock-based awards and cash awards. Any of these awards may, but need not, be made as performance incentives to reward attainment of performance goals in accordance with the terms of the 2025 Plan. Stock options granted under the 2025 Plan may be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options. Upon becoming effective, the 2025 Plan will replace, and no further awards will be made under, the 2015 Plan. The 2025 Plan will become effective on the date the 2025 Plan is approved by Intellicheck’s stockholders.
Administration of the Plan
General. To the extent consistent with Intellicheck’s corporate charter and bylaws, and subject to applicable law, the Board of Directors will have full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the 2025 Plan, any award or any award agreement, and will have full power and authority to take all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of the 2025 Plan that the Board of Directors deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the 2025 Plan.
Without limitation, the Board of Directors will have full and final authority, subject to the other terms and conditions of the 2025 Plan, to (i) designate grantees; (ii) determine the types of awards to be made to a grantee; (iii) determine the number of shares of stock to be subject to an award; (iv) establish the terms and conditions of each award; (v) prescribe the form of each award agreement; and (vi) amend, modify, or supplement the terms of any outstanding award, including the authority to modify awards to foreign nationals or individuals who are employed outside the United States to recognize differences in local law, tax policy, or custom.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board of Directors may delegate its authority under the 2025 Plan to any individual or committee of individuals. Subject to applicable law, Intellicheck’s compensation committee (“committee”) will administer the 2025 Plan. To the extent that the Board of Directors delegates its authority pursuant to the 2025 Plan, all references in the 2025 Plan to the Board of Directors’ authority to make awards and determinations with respect thereto will be deemed to include the Board of Directors’ delegate. Any such delegate will serve at the pleasure of and may be removed at any time by the Board of Directors.
No Repricing. Notwithstanding any provision in the 2025 Plan to the contrary, the repricing of options or SARs is prohibited without prior approval of Intellicheck’s stockholders. For this purpose, a “repricing” means any of the following: (i) changing the terms of an option or SAR to lower its option price or SAR exercise price; (ii) any other action that is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; and (iii) repurchasing for cash, or canceling an option or SAR at a time when its option price or SAR exercise price is greater than the fair market value of the underlying shares in exchange for another award, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a change in capitalization or similar change.
3

Award Agreements; Clawbacks; Reload Awards; Dividends; Minimum Vesting. The grant of any award may be contingent upon the grantee executing the appropriate award agreement.
Awards will be subject to the requirements of Intellicheck’s Incentive-Based Recovery Policy and any other compensation recovery policies as may be adopted from time to time by Intellicheck, all to the extent determined by the committee in its discretion to be applicable to a grantee.
No term of an award will provide for automatic “reload” grants of additional awards upon the exercise of an option or SAR.
Individuals holding an award granted under the 2025 Plan will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to a share underlying such award until the portion of such award covering such share has fully vested and such share has been issued pursuant to such award.
Except as specified in this paragraph, no portion of an award (other than “substitute awards”, as described below) will vest earlier than the one-year anniversary of such award’s grant date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, awards may be granted to any service provider without regard to the minimum vesting requirements set forth in the preceding sentence if the shares subject to such awards would not result in more than 5% of the maximum aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to all outstanding awards granted under the 2025 Plan. Such 5% limit applies in the aggregate to awards (other than “substitute awards”) that do not satisfy the minimum vesting requirements set forth in this paragraph. Such limitation will not prevent accelerated vesting of any portion of an award earlier than the one-year anniversary of such award’s grant date if such acceleration is due to a termination of the relevant grantee’s service or if such acceleration is in connection with a change in control, in each case to the extent otherwise permitted under the 2025 Plan.
Deferral Arrangement. The Board of Directors may permit or require the deferral of any award payment into a deferred compensation arrangement, subject to such rules and procedures as it may establish and in accordance with applicable law.
No Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no member of the Board of Directors or of the committee will be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the 2025 Plan, any award or award agreement.
Stock Subject to the 2025 Plan
Authorized Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment under the 2025 Plan, the total number of shares of common stock authorized to be awarded under the 2025 Plan will not exceed 2,000,000. In addition, shares of common stock underlying any outstanding award granted under the 2015 Plan that, following the effective date, expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of such shares will be available for the grant of new awards under the 2025 Plan. No new awards will be granted under the 2015 Plan following the effective date. Shares issued under the 2025 Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or shares purchased on the open market or otherwise. As of April 1, 2025, the closing sale price of a share of our common stock reported on The Nasdaq Stock Market was $2.95.
Share Counting; No Liberal Recycling of Shares. Each share of common stock granted in connection with an award will be counted as one share against the limit in the 2025 Plan, subject to the provisions of the 2025 Plan. Any award settled in cash will not be counted as shares of common stock for any purpose under the 2025 Plan. If any award under the 2025 Plan expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited, in whole or in part, the unissued common stock covered by such award will again be available for the grant of awards under the 2025 Plan. If shares of common stock issuable upon exercise, vesting or settlement of an award, or shares of common stock owned by a grantee (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest), are surrendered or tendered to Intellicheck in payment of the option price or purchase price of an award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an award, such surrendered or tendered shares of common stock will not again be available for the grant of awards under the 2025 Plan. For a share-settled SAR, upon exercise of the SAR, the gross shares covered by the SAR will be counted against the limit in the 2025 Plan. In the case of any “substitute award”, such substitute award will not be counted against the number of shares reserved under the 2025 Plan. For this purpose, “substitute award” means any award granted in assumption of or in substitution for an award of a company or business acquired by Intellicheck or a subsidiary or with which Intellicheck or an affiliate combines.
Award Limits. Subject to adjustment under the 2025 Plan, 2,000,000 shares of common stock will be available for issuance under incentive stock options. No non-employee director may be paid, issued, or granted, in any fiscal year, equity awards with an aggregate grant date fair value and any other compensation that, in the aggregate, exceed $200,000,
4

increased to $400,000 for such non-employee director for the fiscal year in which he or she joins the Board of Directors as a non-employee director. Any awards or other compensation paid or provided to an individual for his or her services as an employee will not count for purposes of this limitation.

The 2025 Plan will be effective as of the date that it has been approved by Intellicheck’s stockholders. The 2025 Plan will terminate automatically on the 10 year anniversary of the effective date and may be terminated on any earlier date pursuant to the 2025 Plan.
The Board of Directors may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the 2025 Plan as to any awards which have not been made. An amendment will be contingent on approval of Intellicheck’s stockholders to the extent stated by the Board of Directors, required by applicable law or stock exchange listing requirements. No awards will be made after the termination date. The applicable terms of the 2025 Plan, and any terms and conditions applicable to awards granted prior to the termination date will survive the termination of the 2025 Plan and continue to apply to such awards.
Award Eligibility and Limitations
Awards may be made to any service provider, including any service provider who is an officer, non-employee director, consultant or advisor of Intellicheck or of any affiliate, as the Board of Directors will determine and designate from time to time in its discretion. As of March 28, 2025, we had approximately 46 employees (including 1 employee member of the Board of Directors), approximately 5 consultants and advisors and 4 non-employee members of our Board of Directors that would be eligible to participate in the 2025 Plan.
Awards may, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, any other award or any award granted under another plan of Intellicheck, any affiliate, or any business entity to be acquired by Intellicheck or an affiliate, or any other right of a grantee to receive payment from Intellicheck or any affiliate. Such additional, tandem, and substitute or exchange awards may be granted at any time. If an award is granted in substitution or exchange for another award, the Board of Directors will have the right to require the surrender of such other award in consideration for the grant of the new award. Subject to the 2025 Plan, the Board of Directors will have the right, in its discretion, to make awards in substitution or exchange for any other award under another plan of Intellicheck, any affiliate, or any business entity to be acquired by Intellicheck or an affiliate. In addition, awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of Intellicheck or any affiliate, in which the value of stock subject to the award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation.
Award Agreement
Each award agreement evidencing an award of options will specify whether such options are intended to be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options, and in the absence of such specification such options will be deemed non-qualified stock options.
Terms and Conditions of Options
Option Price. Generally, the option price of each option will be at least the fair market value on the grant date of a share of stock (or at least 110 percent in the case of incentive stock options held by certain stockholders). In no case will the option price of any option be less than the par value of a share of stock.
Term. Each option will terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of stock thereunder will cease, upon the expiration of 10 years from the grant date (or 5 years in the case of incentive stock options held by certain stockholders), or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the 2025 Plan or as may be fixed by the Board of Directors and stated in the related award agreement.
Limitations on Exercise of Option. Notwithstanding any other provision of the 2025 Plan, in no event may any option be exercised, in whole or in part, (i) prior to the date the 2025 Plan is approved by the stockholders of Intellicheck or (ii) after the occurrence of an event which results in termination of the option.
5

Rights of Holders of Options. An individual holding or exercising an option will have none of the rights of a stockholder until the shares of stock covered thereby are fully paid and issued to him or her. Except as described below or the related award agreement, no adjustment will be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such issuance.
Limitations on Incentive Stock Options. An option will constitute an incentive stock option only (i) if the grantee of such option is an employee of Intellicheck or any subsidiary of Intellicheck; (ii) to the extent specifically provided in the related award agreement; and (iii) to the extent that the aggregate grant date fair market value of the shares of stock with respect to which all incentive stock options in Intellicheck and certain of its affiliates held by such grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year does not exceed $100,000.
Terms and Conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights
Right to Payment. A SAR will confer on the grantee a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (i) the fair market value of one share of stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the SAR exercise price, as determined by the Board of Directors. Generally, the award agreement for a SAR will specify the SAR exercise price, which will be fixed on the grant date as not less than the fair market value of a share of stock on that date. SARs may be granted alone or in conjunction with all or part of an option or at any subsequent time during the term of such option or in conjunction with all or part of any other award. A SAR granted in tandem with an outstanding option following the grant date of such option will have a grant price that is equal to the option price, subject to applicable law.
Other Terms. The Board of Directors will determine, at the grant date, the time or times at which and the circumstances under which a SAR may be exercised in whole or in part, the time or times at which SARs will cease to be or become exercisable following separation from service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, whether or not a SAR will be in tandem or in combination with any other award, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR.
Term of SARs. The term of a SAR granted under the 2025 Plan will be determined by the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, provided such term will not to exceed 10 years.
Payment of SAR Amount. Upon exercise of a SAR, a grantee will be entitled to receive payment from Intellicheck (in cash or stock, as determined by the Board of Directors) in an amount determined by multiplying: (i) the difference between the fair market value of a share of stock on the date of exercise over the SAR exercise price by (ii) the number of shares of stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised.
Terms and Conditions of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units
Restrictions. At the time of grant, the Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, establish a period of time and any additional restrictions including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives applicable to an award of restricted stock or restricted stock units in accordance with the 2025 Plan. Each award of restricted stock or restricted stock units may be subject to a different restricted period and additional restrictions. Neither restricted stock nor restricted stock units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the restricted period or prior to the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions.
Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock. Unless the Board of Directors otherwise provides in an award agreement and subject to the 2025 Plan, holders of restricted stock will have rights as stockholders of Intellicheck, including voting and dividend rights, provided that any dividends will be subject to the same vesting conditions as the corresponding restricted stock.
Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock Units. Restricted stock units may be settled in cash or stock, as determined by the Board of Directors and set forth in the award agreement. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable award agreement and subject to the 2025 Plan, holders of restricted stock units will not have rights as stockholders of Intellicheck, including no voting or dividend or dividend equivalents rights. A holder of restricted stock units will have no rights other than those of a general creditor of Intellicheck. Restricted stock units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of Intellicheck, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable award agreement.
Purchase of Restricted Stock. The grantee will be required, to the extent required by applicable law, to purchase the restricted stock from Intellicheck at a purchase price equal to the greater of (i) the aggregate par value of the shares of stock represented by such restricted stock or (ii) the purchase price, if any, specified in the related award agreement. If specified in the award agreement, the purchase price may be deemed paid by services already rendered. The purchase price will be
6

payable in a form described in the 2025 Plan or, in the discretion of the Board of Directors, in consideration for past services rendered.
Form of Payment for Options and Restricted Stock
Generally, payment of the option price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an option or the purchase price for restricted stock will be made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to Intellicheck. A promissory note may not be used as a form of consideration for exercising an option or paying the purchase price for restricted stock. To the extent the award agreement so provides, payment of the option price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an option or the purchase price for restricted stock may be made all or in part through the tender to Intellicheck of shares of stock, which shares will be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the option price or purchase price for restricted stock has been paid thereby, at their fair market value on the date of exercise or surrender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an incentive stock option, the right to make payment in the form of already owned shares of stock may be authorized only at the time of grant. With respect to an option only, to the extent permitted by law and to the extent the award agreement so provides, payment of the option price may be made all or in part by a broker assisted cashless exercise. To the extent the award agreement so provides, payment of the option price or the purchase price for restricted stock may be made in any other form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules, including, but not limited to, Intellicheck’s withholding of shares of stock otherwise due to the exercising grantee.
Terms and Conditions of Performance-Based Awards
The right of a grantee to exercise or receive a grant or settlement of any award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such performance conditions as may be specified by the committee. The committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions. Settlement of performance-based awards will be in cash, stock, other awards or other property, in the discretion of the committee. The committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with such performance-based awards.
Other Stock-Based Awards
Other stock-based awards may be granted either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other awards under the 2025 Plan. Other stock-based awards may be granted in lieu of other cash or other compensation to which a service provider is entitled from Intellicheck or may be used in the settlement of amounts payable in shares of common stock under any other compensation plan or arrangement of Intellicheck. Subject to the provisions of the 2025 Plan, the committee will have the sole and complete authority to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which such awards will be made, the number of shares of common stock to be granted pursuant to such awards, and all other conditions of such awards.
Other stock-based awards may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.
Effect of Changes in Capitalization
Changes in Stock. If (i) the number of outstanding shares of stock is increased or decreased or the shares of stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of Intellicheck on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by Intellicheck occurring after the effective date, or (ii) there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by Intellicheck, the number and kinds of shares for which grants of awards may be made under the 2025 Plan will be equitably adjusted by Intellicheck, subject to applicable law. In addition, in the event of any such increase or decrease, change or exchange, or other transaction described in clause (ii) above, the number and kind of shares for which awards are outstanding and the option price per share of outstanding options and SAR exercise price per share of outstanding SARs will be equitably adjusted, subject to applicable law.
Effect of Certain Transactions. Except as otherwise provided in an award agreement and subject to the 2025 Plan, in the event of a corporate transaction, the 2025 Plan and the awards issued thereunder will continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms, except that following a corporate transaction either (i) each outstanding award will be treated as provided for in the agreement entered into in connection with the corporate transaction or (ii) if not so provided in such agreement, each grantee will be entitled to receive in respect of each share of common stock subject to any outstanding awards, upon exercise or payment or transfer in respect of any award, the same number and kind of stock, securities, cash,
7

property or other consideration that each holder of a share of common stock was entitled to receive in the corporate transaction in respect of a share of common stock. Unless otherwise determined by the committee, such stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration will remain subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria which were applicable to the awards prior to such corporate transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the treatment of outstanding options and SARs pursuant to the 2025 Plan in connection with a corporate transaction in which the consideration paid or distributed to Intellicheck’s stockholders is not entirely shares of common stock of the acquiring or resulting corporation may include the cancellation of outstanding options and SARs upon consummation of the corporate transaction as long as, at the election of the committee, (i) the holders of affected options and SARs have been given a period of at least fifteen days prior to the date of the consummation of the corporate transaction to exercise the options or SARs (to the extent otherwise exercisable) or (ii) the holders of the affected options and SARs are paid (in cash or cash equivalents) in respect of each share covered by the option or SAR being canceled in an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the per share price paid or distributed to stockholders in the corporate transaction (the value of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the committee in its sole discretion) over the option price or SAR exercise price, as applicable. For this purpose, “corporate transaction” means a reorganization, merger, statutory share exchange, consolidation, sale of all or substantially all of Intellicheck’s assets, or the acquisition of assets or stock of another entity by Intellicheck, or other corporate transaction involving Intellicheck or any of its subsidiaries.
Change in Control. For awards granted to non-employee directors, except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable award agreement, upon a change in control all outstanding awards that may be exercised will become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to outstanding awards will lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and any specified performance goals with respect to outstanding awards will be deemed to be satisfied at target.
For awards granted to any other service providers, except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable award agreement, either of the following provisions will apply, depending on whether, and the extent to which, awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in a change in control:
(i) To the extent such awards are not assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the change in control, then upon the change in control such outstanding awards that may be exercised will become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding awards, other than for performance-based awards, will lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding performance-based awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such awards will be deemed to have been fully earned as of the change in control based upon the greater of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of Intellicheck’s fiscal quarter end preceding the change in control and, in each case, the performance-based award will become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the change in control.
(ii) To the extent such awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the change in control, if, within two years after the date of the change in control, the service provider has a separation from service either (1) by Intellicheck other than for “cause” or (2) by the service provider for “good reason” (each as defined in the applicable award agreement), then such outstanding awards that may be exercised will become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding awards, other than for performance-based awards, will lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding performance-based awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such awards will be deemed to have been fully earned as of the separation from service based upon the greater of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of Intellicheck’s fiscal quarter end preceding the change in control and, in each case, the performance-based awards will become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the separation from service.
For this purpose, “change in control” means a “change in control event” with respect to Intellicheck within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5).
Adjustments. Adjustments for purposes of changes in capitalization pursuant to the 2025 Plan related to shares of stock or securities of Intellicheck will be made by the Board of Directors, whose determination in that respect will be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities will be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment will be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share.
No Limitations on Intellicheck
8

The making of awards pursuant to the 2025 Plan will not affect or limit in any way the right or power of Intellicheck to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
Terms Applicable Generally to Awards Granted under the Plan
The 2025 Plan will in no way be interpreted to require Intellicheck to transfer any amounts to a third-party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the 2025 Plan. Neither the adoption of the 2025 Plan nor the submission of the 2025 Plan to the stockholders of Intellicheck for approval will be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board of Directors to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements.
Withholding Taxes. Intellicheck or an affiliate, as the case may be, will have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld. Subject to the prior approval of Intellicheck or the affiliate, which may be withheld by Intellicheck or the affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, or Intellicheck may require such obligations to be satisfied, in whole or in part, (i) by causing Intellicheck or the affiliate to withhold the required number of shares of stock otherwise issuable to the grantee as may be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation (not to exceed the maximum statutory rate applicable to the grantee) or (ii) by delivering to Intellicheck or the affiliate shares of stock already owned by the grantee.
Separation from Service. The Board of Directors will determine the effect of a separation from service upon awards, and such effect will be set forth in the appropriate award agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board of Directors may provide in the award agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the grantee, the actions that will be taken upon the occurrence of a separation from service, including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination, depending upon the circumstances surrounding the separation from service.
Transferability of Awards. Except as described below, no award will be assignable or transferable by the grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the grantee, only the grantee personally (or the grantee’s personal representative) may exercise rights under the 2025 Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, awards may not be transferred to financial institutions.
If authorized in the applicable award agreement, a grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an award (other than incentive stock options) to any family member. Following such transfer, any such award will continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer.
Summary of U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences
The following summary is intended only as a general guide to the U.S. federal income tax consequences of participation in the 2025 Plan. The summary is based on existing U.S. laws and regulations, and there can be no assurance that those laws and regulations will not change. The summary is not complete and does not discuss the tax consequences upon a participant’s death, or the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which the participant may reside. Tax consequences for any particular participant may vary based on individual circumstances.
Incentive Stock Options. A participant recognizes no taxable income for regular income tax purposes because of the grant or exercise of an option that qualifies as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code (“Code”). If a participant exercises the option and then later sells or otherwise disposes of the shares acquired through the exercise of the option after both the two-year anniversary of the date the option was granted and the one-year anniversary of the exercise, the participant will recognize a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sale price of the shares and the exercise price, and we will not be entitled to any deduction for federal income tax purposes.
However, if the participant disposes of such shares either on or before the two-year anniversary of the date of grant or on or before the one-year anniversary of the date of exercise (a “disqualifying disposition”), any gain up to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price generally will be taxed as ordinary income, unless the shares are disposed of in a transaction in which the participant would not recognize a loss (such as a gift). Any gain in excess of that amount will be a capital gain. If a loss is recognized, there will be no ordinary income, and such loss will be a capital loss. Any ordinary income recognized by the participant upon the disqualifying disposition of the shares generally should be deductible by Intellicheck for federal income tax purposes, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Code.
9

For purposes of the alternative minimum tax, the difference between the option exercise price and the fair market value of the shares on the exercise date is treated as an adjustment item in computing the participant’s alternative minimum taxable income in the year of exercise. In addition, special alternative minimum tax rules may apply to certain subsequent disqualifying dispositions of the shares or provide certain basis adjustments or tax credits for purposes.
Non-qualified Stock Options. A participant generally recognizes no taxable income as the result of the grant of such an option. However, upon exercising the option, the participant normally recognizes ordinary income equal to the amount that the fair market value of the shares on such date exceeds the exercise price. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of the shares acquired by exercising a non-qualified stock option, any gain or loss (based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the exercise date) will be taxed as capital gain or loss. Any ordinary income recognized by the participant upon exercising a non-qualified stock option generally should be deductible by Intellicheck for federal income tax purposes, except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Code. No tax deduction is available to Intellicheck with respect to the grant of a non-qualified stock option or the sale of the shares acquired through the exercise of the non-qualified stock option.
SARs. In general, no taxable income is reportable when a SAR is granted to a participant. Upon exercise, the participant generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of any shares received. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares would be capital gain or loss.
Restricted Stock Awards. A participant acquiring shares of restricted stock generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares on the vesting date, reduced by any amount paid by the participant for such shares. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. The participant may elect, under Section 83(b) of the Code to accelerate the ordinary income tax event to the date of acquisition by filing an election with the Internal Revenue Service no later than thirty days after the date the shares are acquired. Upon the sale of shares acquired under a restricted stock award, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the date the ordinary income tax event occurs, will be taxed as capital gain or loss.
Restricted Stock Units. There are no immediate tax consequences of receiving an award of restricted stock units. A participant who is awarded restricted stock units generally will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of shares issued to such participant at the end of the applicable vesting period or, if later, the settlement date elected by the administrator or a participant. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of any shares received would be capital gain or loss.
Performance Shares and Performance Units. A participant generally will recognize no income upon the grant of a performance share or a performance unit. Upon the settlement of such awards, participants normally will recognize ordinary income in the year of receipt in an amount equal to the cash received and the fair market value of any cash or unrestricted shares received. If the participant is an employee, such ordinary income generally is subject to withholding of income and employment taxes. Upon the sale of any shares received, any gain or loss, based on the difference between the sale price and the fair market value on the date the ordinary income tax event occurs, will be taxed as capital gain or loss.
Section 409A of the Code. Section 409A of the Code provides certain requirements for non-qualified deferred compensation arrangements with respect to an individual’s deferral and distribution elections and permissible distribution events. Awards granted under the 2025 Plan with a deferral feature will be subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code. If an award is subject to and fails to satisfy the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the recipient of that award may recognize ordinary income on the amounts deferred under the award, to the extent vested, which may be before the compensation is actually or constructively received. Also, if an award subject to Section 409A of the Code violates the provisions of Section 409A of the Code, Section 409A of the Code imposes an additional 20% federal income tax on compensation recognized as ordinary income, and interest on such deferred compensation.
Tax Effect for Intellicheck. We generally will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an award under the 2025 Plan equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant when the participant recognizes such income (for example, the exercise of a non-qualified stock option) except to the extent such deduction is limited by applicable provisions of the Code. Special rules limit the deductibility of compensation paid to our chief executive officer and other “covered employees” as determined under Section 162(m) of the Code and applicable guidance. Under Section 162(m) of the Code, the annual compensation paid to any of these specified executives will be deductible only to the extent that it does not exceed $1,000,000.
THE FOREGOING IS ONLY A SUMMARY OF THE EFFECT OF U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAXATION UPON PARTICIPANTS AND INTELLICHECK WITH RESPECT TO AWARDS UNDER THE 2025 PLAN. IT DOES NOT
10

PURPORT TO BE COMPLETE AND DOES NOT DISCUSS THE IMPACT OF EMPLOYMENT OR OTHER TAX REQUIREMENTS, THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF A PARTICIPANT’S DEATH, OR THE PROVISIONS OF THE INCOME TAX LAWS OF ANY MUNICIPALITY, STATE, OR FOREIGN COUNTRY IN WHICH THE PARTICIPANT MAY RESIDE.
New Plan Benefits
No awards have been made under the 2025 Plan, and no awards have been granted that are contingent on the approval of the 2025 Plan. Awards under the 2025 Plan would be made at the discretion of the committee or the Board of Directors. Therefore, the benefits and amounts that will be received or allocated under the 2025 Plan in the future are not determinable at this time.
Vote Required
Approval of the 2025 Plan requires a number of “FOR” votes that is a majority of the votes cast by the holders of our shares of common stock entitled to vote on the proposal, with abstentions counting as votes against the proposal.
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the approval of the Intellicheck, Inc. 2025 Omnibus Incentive Plan.

Board Leadership Structure
The current Chairman of the Board of Directors is Guy L. Smith, who is an independent director under Nasdaq listing standards. The roles of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer are separate. The Board of Directors believes that the separation of the offices of the Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer allows the Company’s Chief Executive Officer to focus primarily on the Company’s business strategy, operations, and corporate vision. All the Board of Directors are independent other than Mr. Lewis, and each of the committees of the Board of Directors is comprised solely of independent directors. The Company does not have a policy mandating an independent lead director. The independent directors meet in executive sessions at every board meeting without the presence of the non-independent director.
Risk Oversight
While management is responsible for assessing and managing risks to the Company, the Board of Directors is responsible for overseeing management’s efforts to assess and manage risk. Risks are considered in virtually every business decision and as part of the Company’s overall business strategy. The Board of Directors’ risk oversight areas of focus include, but are not limited to:
•management of the Company’s long-term growth;
•strategic and operational planning, including significant acquisitions and the evaluation of our capital structure; and
•legal and regulatory compliance.
While the Board of Directors has the ultimate oversight responsibility for the Company’s risk management policies and processes, the committees of the Board of Directors also have responsibility for risk oversight. The Audit Committee oversees risks associated with our financial statements and financial reporting, mergers and acquisitions, credit and liquidity, and business conduct compliance. The Compensation Committee considers the risks associated with our compensation policies and practices with respect to both executive compensation and employee compensation generally. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee oversees risks associated with our overall governance practices and the leadership structure of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors stays informed of each committee’s risk oversight and other activities via regular reports of the committee chairs to the full Board of Directors. The Board of Directors’ role in risk oversight is consistent with our leadership structure, with the Chief Executive Officer and other members of senior management having responsibility for assessing and managing the Company’s risk exposure, and the Board of Directors and committees providing oversight in connection with those efforts.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also seeks to recommend directors who possess a broad range of business, professional, governmental, fintech, and software industry experience.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee assesses these and other factors as it deems appropriate in connection with its annual review of each director and the Board as a whole and takes these factors into account when determining whether to nominate existing directors for re-election in connection with this annual review.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also takes these factors into account when considering any director nominee outside of its annual review process, such as when a vacancy exists on the Board or when a stockholder suggests a new director candidate that the committee or the Board decides to consider for a mid-year appointment.
Delinquent Section 16(a) Reports
The Securities and Exchange Commission has adopted rules relating to the filing of ownership reports under Section 16(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. One such rule requires disclosure of filings, which under the Commission’s rules, are not deemed to be timely. Based solely on review of the copies of beneficial ownership forms furnished to us, or written representations from our officers and directors, we believe that during, and with respect to, 2024, all of our officers and directors and greater than 10% shareholders complied in all respects with the reporting requirements promulgated under Section 16(a), other than Forms 4 filed by Guy L. Smith, Gregory Braca, Dylan Glenn and David
Ullman in connection with March 29, 2024 RSU vestings, which were inadvertently filed on April 3, 2024, a Form 4 filed

by Dondi Black in connection with a March 29, 2024 vesting of RSUs, which was inadvertently filed on April 8, 2024 and
a Form 4 filed by Bryan Lewis in connection with a March 28, 2024 vesting of RSUs, which was inadvertently filed on
April 16, 2024.

Depending upon the current needs of our Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered more than others by the Committee in making its recommendation.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will not evaluate candidates differently based on who has made the recommendation.
Although we do not currently have a formal policy or procedure for stockholder recommendations of director candidates, the Board of Directors welcomes such recommendations and will consider candidates recommended by stockholders.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
This compensation discussion describes the material elements of compensation awarded to, earned by, or paid to each of Intellicheck’s executive officers who are considered named executive officers for the last completed fiscal year pursuant to SEC rules. This compensation discussion focuses on the information contained in the following tables and related footnotes and narrative for primarily the last completed fiscal year.
The Compensation Committee currently oversees and, where appropriate or required by law, recommends to the Board of Directors, the design and administration of Intellicheck’s executive compensation program and compensation for the Board of Directors.
The principal elements of Intellicheck’s executive compensation program are base salary, annual cash incentives, long-term equity incentives in the form of stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and other benefits. Intellicheck’s other benefits consist of reimbursed business travel and entertainment expenses, health insurance benefits, vacation pay, sick pay and a qualified 401(k) savings plan. Intellicheck’s philosophy is to position the aggregate of these elements at a level that is commensurate with Intellicheck’s size and performance.
Compensation Program Objectives and Philosophy
In General. The objectives of Intellicheck’s compensation programs are to:
•attract, motivate, and retain talented and dedicated executive officers;
•provide Intellicheck’s executive officers with both cash and equity incentives to further Intellicheck’s interests and those of Intellicheck’s stockholders; and
•provide employees with long-term incentives so Intellicheck can retain them and provide stability during Intellicheck’s growth stage.
In setting base salaries, the Compensation Committee generally reviews the individual contributions of the particular executive. Annual incentive compensation awards for 2024 have been paid in accordance with the Executive Compensation Bonus Plan approved by the Compensation Committee based on Company performance. In addition, stock options and RSUs are granted to provide the opportunity for long-term compensation based upon the performance of Intellicheck’s common stock over time.
Competitive Marketplace for Talent. Intellicheck defines its competitive marketplace for executive talent and investment capital to be the technology and business services industries.
Compensation Process. For each of Intellicheck’s named executive officers, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves, or recommends to the Board of Directors, all elements of compensation, taking into consideration recommendations from Intellicheck’s Chief Executive Officer (for compensation other than his own), as well as competitive marketplace guidance. Based upon its review, the Compensation Committee or, where applicable, the Board of Directors, approves salaries for executive officers. Salary level of each executive officer is determined on a case-by-case basis, considering the individual’s level of responsibilities and performance. All executive officer salaries are reviewed on an annual basis. Salary changes for executives are based primarily on their performance in supporting the strategic initiatives of the Chief Executive Officer, economic and competitive factors, meeting individual goals and objectives set by the Chief Executive Officer, and improving the operating efficiency of the Company. Also, where applicable, changes in the duties and responsibilities of each other executive officer may be considered in deciding on changes in annual salary.
Annual Incentive Compensation. The Company maintains an annual incentive program for both executives and non-executives. Pursuant to the Company’s 2015 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”), certain full time permanent employees of the Company, including the named executive officers, are eligible to receive cash bonuses based upon the achievement of certain corporate and individual performance goals during the fiscal year. These bonuses are designed to attract, motivate, retain, and reward the Company’s employees and executive team.
For 2024, achievement for the named executive officers was tied to two financial metrics, revenue and adjusted EBITDA. With respect to the two financial metrics, participant achievement can either be increased through an accelerator based on final results that exceed the approved budget for the fiscal year, or conversely, can be decreased through a
22

decelerator if results do not achieve the approved budget. Accelerators have a cap of 117%, while decelerators have a floor of 80%.
Under the Incentive Plan, our Chief Executive Officer has a bonus target equal to 80% of his annualized salary; our Chief Financial Officer has a bonus target equal to 60% of his annualized salary and our Chief Technology Officer has a bonus target equal to 50% of his annualized salary. A named executive officer must be a permanent full-time employee to qualify for participation in the Incentive Plan. These bonus target percentages remained unchanged from 2023.
During 2024, cash was paid under the Executive Compensation Bonus Plan to the Bryan Lewis, Jonathan Robins, and Jeffrey Ishmael in the amounts of $289,538, $37,294, and $157,678, respectively.
Stock Option Grants. The Compensation Committee currently administers Intellicheck’s stock option and equity incentive program, including for executive officers. Under the program, the Compensation Committee grants options to purchase Common Stock with an exercise price of no less than the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee also grants RSUs. The Compensation Committee believes that providing stock options and RSUs to the executive officers, who are responsible for Intellicheck’s management and growth, gives them an opportunity to own Intellicheck stock and better aligns their interests with the interests of the stockholders. It also promotes retention of the officers because of the vesting provisions of the option grants and RSUs, and the potential for stock price appreciation.
For these reasons, the Compensation Committee considers stock options and RSUs to be an important element of compensation when it reviews executive officer compensation. At its discretion, the Compensation Committee also grants options and RSUs based on individual and corporate achievements. Normally, the Chief Executive Officer makes a recommendation to the Compensation Committee for awards to be made to the other executive officers. The Compensation Committee approves grants made to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers and, in certain cases, recommends grants for approval by the entire Board. The Compensation Committee determines the number of shares underlying each stock option and RSUs grant based upon the executive officer’s and Intellicheck’s performance, the executive officer’s role, and responsibilities at Intellicheck and the executive officer’s base salary.
Chief Executive Officer Compensation. Mr. Lewis’s annual base salary for 2024 was $412,000, an increase of $12,000 from Mr. Lewis’s annual base salary for 2023 of $400,000. Mr. Lewis may also receive an annual bonus based on reasonable objectives established by the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition, Mr. Lewis is entitled to receive benefits in accordance with the Company’s existing benefit policies and is reimbursed for Company expenses in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies.
The determination of the base salary to be paid to the Chief Executive Officer was based on many factors including the position’s historical compensation and the relative compensation in comparison to the other existing senior executives in the Company. In deciding on future changes in the base salary of the Chief Executive Officer, the Compensation Committee will consider several performance factors. Among these are operating and administrative efficiency and the maintenance of an appropriately experienced management team. The Compensation Committee also evaluates the Chief Executive Officer’s performance in finding and evaluating new business opportunities to establish the most productive strategic direction for Intellicheck.
Chief Financial Officer Compensation. Mr. Sragovicz’s annual base salary for 2024 was $357,500. Mr. Sragovicz may also receive an annual bonus based on reasonable objectives established by the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition, Mr. Sragovicz is entitled to receive benefits in accordance with the Company’s existing benefit policies and is reimbursed for Company expenses in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies. In connection with his appointment as Chief Financial Officer in September 2024, Mr. Sragovicz was awarded an aggregate of 91,228 Incentive Stock Options (“ISOs”) in one grant, with an exercise price of $2.21, scheduled to vest over the next 3 years from the date Mr. Sragovicz was appointed Chief Financial Officer.
Chief Technology Officer Compensation. Mr. Robins’s annual base salary for 2024 was $300,000. Mr. Robin’s may also receive an annual bonus based on reasonable objectives established by the Company’s Board of Directors. In addition, Mr. Robin’s is entitled to receive benefits in accordance with the Company’s existing benefit policies and is reimbursed for Company expenses in accordance with the Company’s expense reimbursement policies.

Pay Versus Performance Narrative Disclosure
In accordance with Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, we are providing the following descriptions of the relationships between information presented in the Pay Versus Performance table on CAP and each of total shareholder return (“TSR”) and net loss.
We do not utilize TSR and net loss in our executive compensation program. However, we do utilize several other performance measures to align executive compensation with our performance. As described in more detail above in the section “Executive Compensation” part of the compensation our NEOs are eligible to receive consists of annual performance-based cash bonuses that are designed to provide appropriate incentives to our executives to achieve defined annual corporate goals and to reward our executives for individual achievement towards these goals, subject to certain employment criteria. Additionally, we view equity awards, in the form of ISOs or PSUs, to be an integral part of our executive compensation program, as related to company performance although not directly tied to TSR, because they provide value only if the market price of our common stock increases, and if the executive officer continues in our employment over the vesting period. These stock option awards strongly align our executive officers’ interests with those of our stockholders by providing a continuing financial incentive to maximize long-term value for our stockholders and by encouraging our executive officers to continue in our employment for the long-term.
The following graphs illustrates the relationship during 2022-2024 of the CAP for our CEO and non-CEO NEOs as calculated pursuant to SEC rules to our TSR.

(2)No other compensation, including perquisites more than $10,000 was paid to any of the directors.
Director compensation is set by the Board of Directors upon the recommendation of the Corporate Governance Committee. For fiscal year 2024, non-employee directors received a total base annual fee of $100,000 for services provided throughout the year. The Chairman received an additional annual fee of $20,000. The Company reimburses directors for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with attendance at board meetings.
33

In February 2021, to assess the competitiveness of our director compensation program and at the suggestion of the Nominating and Governance Committee, the Board reviewed director compensation programs at companies similar to the market capitalization and industry of the Company. Following that review, the Board determined to increase the fees paid to our directors from $60,000 for a director and $80,000 for the Chairman to $100,000 for a director and $120,000 for the Chairman, effective as of the 2021 Annual Meeting. The Board determined that the increase would enhance its ability to retain and recruit directors. In addition, to further align the interests of the directors with our stockholders, the Board determined that one half of the increase would be paid only in the form of shares of our common stock. Going forward, the Board intends to increase or decrease director compensation to remain consistent with companies similar to its industry and market capitalization. The Board currently intends that any such future increase would be in the form of shares of our common stock, to further align the interests of the directors with our stockholders.
CERTAIN RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews transactions with firms associated with directors and nominees for director. Intellicheck’s management also monitors such transactions on an ongoing basis. Executive officers and directors are governed by Intellicheck’s Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, which provides that waivers may only be granted by the Board of Directors and must be promptly disclosed to stockholders. No such waivers were granted nor applied for in 2024. Intellicheck’s Corporate Governance Guidelines require that all directors recuse themselves from any discussion or decision affecting their personal, business, or professional interests.
INSIDER TRADING POLICY
We have adopted an Insider Trading Policy governing the purchase, sale, and/or other dispositions of our securities by directors, officers and employees of the Company and its subsidiaries that is reasonably designed to promote compliance with insider trading laws, rules and regulations, and any listing standards applicable to the Company.
The Insider Trading Policy prohibits any insider, or any members of the immediate family or household of any such person, from engaging in any transaction involving a purchase or sale of the Company’s securities, including any offer to purchase or offer to sell, during any period commencing with the date that he or she possesses material nonpublic information and ending at the close of business on the second Trading Day following the date of public disclosure of that information, or at such time as such nonpublic information is no longer considered material. Our Insider Trading Policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.
INCENTIVE-BASED RECOVERY POLICY
In December 2023, we adopted the Intellicheck Incentive-Based Compensation Recovery Policy (the “Clawback Policy”) in compliance with the listing standards of Nasdaq. In the event that we are required to prepare an accounting restatement due to material noncompliance with any financial reporting requirement under U.S. securities law, the policy provides that we will recoup compensation from each current or former executive officer who, during the three-year period preceding the date on which a restatement is required, received compensation from incentive awards based on the erroneous financial data that exceeds the amount of incentive-based compensation the executive would have received based on the restatement. The Compensation Committee has sole discretion to determine how to seek recovery under the policy and may forgo recovery if it determines that recovery would be impracticable and either the cost of recovery would exceed the amount sought to be recovered or would cause an otherwise tax-qualified retirement plan broadly available to our employees to fail to meet applicable tax qualification requirements. Our Clawback Policy is filed as an exhibit to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

Pre-approval of Services
The Audit Committee pre-approves all services, including both audit and non-audit services, provided by Intellicheck’s independent registered public accounting firm. For audit services, each year the independent auditor provides the Audit Committee with an engagement letter outlining the scope of proposed audit services to be performed during the year, which must be formally accepted by the Committee before the audit commences. The independent auditor also submits an audit services fee proposal, which also must be approved by the Committee before the audit commences.
Vote Required
Approval of the ratification of our independent auditors requires a number of “FOR” votes that is a majority of the votes cast by the holders of our shares of common stock entitled to vote on the proposal, with abstentions counting as votes against the proposal.
The Board of Directors recommends that you vote to ratify such appointment.

Proposal No. 4
SAY ON PAY
ADVISORY VOTE TO APPROVE THE COMPENSATION OF OUR NAMED EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AS DISCLOSED IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT UNDER “EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION”
The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) provides stockholders with the opportunity to vote, on an advisory basis, to approve the compensation of Intellicheck’s compensation policies. The Board of Directors believes that Intellicheck’s compensation policies and procedures are aligned with the long-term interests of stockholders. As described in detail under the Executive Compensation discussion section of this Proxy Statement, we believe that our compensation program is designed to support our long-term business strategies and creation of stockholder value by emphasizing long-term alignment with our stockholders and pay-for-performance. You are encouraged to read the Executive Compensation discussion section of this Proxy Statement for additional details on our executive compensation, including our philosophy and objectives and the 2024 compensation of our named executive officers. This non-binding advisory “say-on-pay” vote gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to endorse our executive compensation program through the following resolution:
“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Executive Compensation discussion, compensation tables and narrative discussion is hereby APPROVED.”
As an advisory vote, this proposal is non-binding. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when making future compensation decisions for the named executive officers.
Our Board of Directors recommends a vote “FOR” the advisory approval of the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this proxy statement under the heading “Executive Compensation.”
Vote Required
Non-binding, advisory approval of the advisory proposal on the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement under “Executive Compensation” requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Intellicheck common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting. Abstentions will have the same effect as votes “AGAINST” this proposal, whereas “broker non-votes” will not be counted for purposes of determining whether this advisory proposal has been approved.
36

Proposal No. 5
SAY ON FREQUENCY
ADVISORY VOTE ON THE FREQUENCY (EVERY ONE, TWO, OR THREE YEARS) OF FUTURE ADVISORY VOTES TO APPROVE OF EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.
The Dodd-Frank Act provides stockholders with the opportunity to vote, on an advisory basis, as to the frequency of stockholder advisory “say-on-pay” votes such as that detailed in Proposal 3 above. You may abstain from voting, or you may select a recommendation as to the frequency of such votes: every one year, two years, or three years. This non-binding advisory vote gives you as a stockholder the opportunity to select a frequency of “say-on-pay” votes.
As an advisory vote, this proposal is non-binding. However, the Board of Directors and the Compensation Committee value the opinions of stockholders and will consider the outcome of the vote when determining the frequency of “say-on-pay” votes. Nevertheless, the Board of Directors may decide to hold a non-binding advisory vote on future compensation of future named executive officers more or less frequently than the option voted by the shareholders.
The Board of Directors has considered this matter and has determined that a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation every year is appropriate to provide stockholders the opportunity to inform Intellicheck of their opinion of our approach to compensation policies and practices, after having sufficient time to observe its impact on our business.
Our Board of Directors recommends a vote of “ONE YEAR” with respect to the advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes to approve of executive compensation.
Vote Required
Pursuant to this non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of future non-binding advisory votes on named executive officer compensation, shareholders will be able to specify one of four choices for this proposal on the proxy card or voting instruction: ONE YEAR, TWO YEARS, THREE YEARS, or ABSTAIN. The option receiving the vote of a plurality of the shares of Intellicheck common stock present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting will be approved on a non-binding, advisory basis. Abstentions and “broker non-votes” will not be counted for purposes of determining the result of this non-binding advisory vote.
OTHER MATTERS
The Board of Directors does not know of any matters other than those mentioned above to be presented at the meeting. However, if other matters properly come before the meeting, the individual named in the accompanying proxy shall vote on such matters in accordance with his best judgment.

The Board shall have the power and authority to delegate its responsibilities hereunder to the Committee, which shall have full authority to act in accordance with its charter, and with respect to the authority of the Board to act hereunder, all references to the Board shall be deemed to include a reference to the Committee, to the extent such power or responsibilities have been delegated. Except as specifically provided in Section 14 or as otherwise may be required by applicable law, regulatory requirement or the certificate of incorporation or the bylaws of the Company, the Board shall have full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement, and shall have full power and authority to take all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of the Plan that the Board deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan. The Committee shall administer the Plan; provided that, the Board shall retain the right to exercise the authority of the Committee to the extent consistent with applicable law and the applicable requirements of any securities exchange on which the Common Stock may then be listed. The interpretation and construction by the Board of any provision of the Plan, any Award or any Award Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive. Without limitation, the Board shall have full and final authority, subject to the other terms and conditions of the Plan, to:
(a)designate Grantees;
(a)determine the type or types of Awards to be made to a Grantee;
(a)determine the number of shares of Stock to be subject to an Award;
(a)establish the terms and conditions of each Award (including, but not limited to, the Option Price of any Option, the nature and duration of any restriction or condition (or provision for lapse thereof) relating to the vesting, exercise, transfer, or forfeiture of an Award or the shares of Stock subject thereto, and any terms or conditions that may be necessary to qualify Options as Incentive Stock Options);
(a)prescribe the form of each Award Agreement; and
41

(a)amend, modify, or supplement the terms of any outstanding Award including the authority, in order to effectuate the purposes of the Plan, to modify Awards to foreign nationals or individuals who are employed outside the United States to recognize differences in local law, tax policy, or custom.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Board may delegate its authority as identified herein to any individual or committee of individuals (who need not be directors), including without limitation the authority to make Awards to Grantees who are not subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. To the extent that the Board delegates its authority to make Awards as provided by this Section 3.1, all references in the Plan to the Board’s authority to make Awards and determinations with respect thereto shall be deemed to include the Board’s delegate. Any such delegate shall serve at the pleasure of and may be removed at any time by the Board.
3.2. No Repricing.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the repricing of Options or SARs is prohibited without prior approval of the Company’s stockholders. For this purpose, a “repricing” means any of the following (or any other action that has the same effect as any of the following): (i) changing the terms of an Option or SAR to lower its Option Price or SAR Exercise Price; (ii) any other action that is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles; and (iii) repurchasing for cash or canceling an Option or SAR at a time when its Option Price or SAR Exercise Price is greater than the Fair Market Value of the underlying shares in exchange for another Award, unless the cancellation and exchange occurs in connection with a change in capitalization or similar change under Section 15. A cancellation and exchange under clause (iii) would be considered a “repricing” regardless of whether it is treated as a “repricing” under generally accepted accounting principles and regardless of whether it is voluntary on the part of the Grantee.
3.3. Award Agreements; Clawbacks; Reload Awards; Dividends; Minimum Vesting.
The grant of any Award may be contingent upon the Grantee executing the appropriate Award Agreement. The Company may retain the right in an Award Agreement to cause a forfeiture of the gain realized by a Grantee on account of actions taken by the Grantee in violation or breach of or in conflict with any employment agreement, non-competition agreement, any agreement prohibiting solicitation of employees or clients of the Company or any Affiliate thereof or any confidentiality obligation with respect to the Company or any Affiliate thereof or otherwise in competition with the Company or any Affiliate thereof, to the extent specified in such Award Agreement applicable to the Grantee. Furthermore, the Company may annul an Award if the Grantee is terminated for “cause” as defined in the applicable Award Agreement.
Awards shall be subject to the requirements of the Company’s Incentive-Based Recovery Policy and any other compensation recovery policies as may be adopted from time to time by the Company, all to the extent determined by the Committee in its discretion to be applicable to a Grantee.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, no term of an Award shall provide for automatic “reload” grants of additional Awards upon the exercise of an Option or SAR.
Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, Service Providers holding an Award granted under the Plan will not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to a share underlying such Award until the portion of such Award covering such share has fully vested and such share has been issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company) pursuant to such Award.
Except as specified in this paragraph, no portion of an Award (other than Substitute Awards) will vest earlier than the one-year anniversary of such Award’s grant date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Awards may be granted to any Service Provider without regard to the minimum vesting requirements set forth in the preceding sentence if the shares subject to such Awards would not result in more than 5% of the maximum aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance pursuant to all outstanding Awards granted under the Plan (the “5% Limit”). For purposes of clarification, Substitute Awards shall not count against the 5% Limit. The 5% Limit applies in the aggregate to Awards (other than Substitute Awards) that do not satisfy the minimum vesting requirements set forth in this paragraph. In addition, this paragraph shall not prevent accelerated vesting of any portion of an Award earlier than the one-year anniversary of such Award’s grant date if such acceleration is due to a termination of the relevant Grantee’s service or if such acceleration is in connection with a Change in Control, in each case to the extent otherwise permitted under the Plan.
3.4. Deferral Arrangement.
The Board may permit or require the deferral of any Award payment into a deferred compensation arrangement, subject to such rules and procedures as it may establish and in accordance with Section 409A, which may include provisions for the payment or crediting of interest or dividend equivalents, including converting such credits into deferred Stock units.
42

3.5. No Liability.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, no member of the Board or of the Committee shall be liable for any action or determination made in good faith with respect to the Plan, any Award or Award Agreement.

4. STOCK SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
4.1. Authorized Number of Shares
Subject to adjustment under Section 15, the total number of shares of Common Stock authorized to be awarded under the Plan shall not exceed 2,000,000. In addition, shares of Common Stock underlying any outstanding award granted under the Predecessor Plan that, following the Effective Date, expires, or is terminated, surrendered or forfeited for any reason without issuance of such shares shall be available for the grant of new Awards under this Plan. As provided in Section 1, no new awards shall be granted under the Predecessor Plan following the Effective Date. Shares issued under the Plan may consist in whole or in part of authorized but unissued shares, treasury shares, or shares purchased on the open market or otherwise, all as determined by the Company from time to time.
4.2. Share Counting
4.2.1. General
Each share of Common Stock granted in connection with an Award shall be counted as one share against the limit in Section 4.1, subject to the provisions of this Section 4.2.
4.2.2. Cash-Settled Awards

4.2.4. Payment of Option Price or Tax Withholding in Shares
If shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise, vesting or settlement of an Award, or shares of Common Stock owned by a Grantee (which are not subject to any pledge or other security interest), are surrendered or tendered to the Company in payment of the Option Price or Purchase Price of an Award or any taxes required to be withheld in respect of an Award, such surrendered or tendered shares of Common Stock shall not again be available for the grant of Awards under the Plan. For a share-settled SAR, upon exercise of the SAR, the gross shares covered by the SAR shall be counted against the limit in Section 4.1.
4.2.5. Substitute Awards
In the case of any Substitute Award, such Substitute Award shall not be counted against the number of shares reserved under the Plan.
4.3. Award Limits
4.3.1. Incentive Stock Options.
Subject to adjustment under Section 15, a number of shares of Common Stock equal to the number of shares set forth in Section 4.1 shall be available for issuance under Incentive Stock Options.
4.3.2. Limits on Awards to Non-Employee Directors.
43

No Non-Employee Director may be paid, issued, or granted, in any fiscal year of the Company, equity awards (including any Awards issued under this Plan) with an aggregate value (the value of which will be based on their grant date fair value determined in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles) and any other compensation (including without limitation any cash retainers or fees) that, in the aggregate, exceed $200,000, increased to $400,000 for such Non-Employee Director for the fiscal year in which he or she joins the Board as a Non-Employee Director. Any Awards or other compensation paid or provided to an individual for his or her services as an employee will not count for purposes of this limitation under this Section 4.3.2.
5. EFFECTIVE DATE, DURATION AND AMENDMENTS
5.1. Term.
The Plan shall be effective as of the Effective Date, provided that it has been approved by the Company’s stockholders. The Plan shall terminate automatically on the ten (10) year anniversary of the Effective Date and may be terminated on any earlier date as provided in Section 5.2.
5.2. Amendment and Termination of the Plan.
The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan as to any Awards which have not been made. An amendment shall be contingent on approval of the Company’s stockholders to the extent stated by the Board, required by applicable law or required by applicable stock exchange listing requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any amendment to Section 3.2 shall be contingent upon the approval of the Company’s stockholders. No Awards shall be made after the Termination Date. The applicable terms of the Plan, and any terms and conditions applicable to Awards granted prior to the Termination Date shall survive the termination of the Plan and continue to apply to such Awards. No amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Grantee, materially impair rights or obligations under any Award theretofore awarded. Any amendment that would cause an Incentive Stock Option to become a Non-qualified Stock Option shall not, by itself, be considered a material impairment of such rights or obligations.
6. AWARD ELIGIBILITY AND LIMITATIONS
6.1. Service Providers.
Subject to this Section 6.1, Awards may be made to any Service Provider, including any Service Provider who is an officer, Non-Employee Director, consultant or advisor of the Company or of any Affiliate, as the Board shall determine and designate from time to time in its discretion.
6.2. Successive Awards.
An eligible person may receive more than one Award, subject to such restrictions as are provided herein.
6.3. Stand-Alone, Additional, Tandem, and Substitute Awards.
Awards may, in the discretion of the Board, be granted either alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or in substitution or exchange for, any other Award or any award granted under another plan of the Company, any Affiliate, or any business entity to be acquired by the Company or an Affiliate, or any other right of a Grantee to receive payment from the Company or any Affiliate. Such additional, tandem, and substitute or exchange Awards may be granted at any time. If an Award is granted in substitution or exchange for another Award, the Board shall have the right to require the surrender of such other Award in consideration for the grant of the new Award. Subject to Section 3.2, the Board shall have the right, in its discretion, to make Awards in substitution or exchange for any other award under another plan of the Company, any Affiliate, or any business entity to be acquired by the Company or an Affiliate. In addition, Awards may be granted in lieu of cash compensation, including in lieu of cash amounts payable under other plans of the Company or any Affiliate, in which the value of Stock subject to the Award is equivalent in value to the cash compensation (for example, Restricted Stock Units or Restricted Stock).
7. AWARD AGREEMENT
Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, in such form or forms as the Board shall from time to time determine. Without limiting the foregoing, an Award Agreement may be provided in the form of a notice which provides that acceptance of the Award constitutes acceptance of all terms of the Plan and the notice. Award Agreements granted from time to time or at the same time need not contain similar provisions but shall be consistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement evidencing an Award of Options shall specify whether such Options are intended to be Non-
44

qualified Stock Options or Incentive Stock Options, and in the absence of such specification such options shall be deemed Non-qualified Stock Options.
8. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS
8.1. Option Price.
The Option Price of each Option shall be fixed by the Board and stated in the related Award Agreement. The Option Price of each Option (except those that constitute Substitute Awards) shall be at least the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that in the event that a Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder as of the Grant Date, the Option Price of an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date. In no case shall the Option Price of any Option be less than the par value of a share of Stock.
8.2. Vesting.
Subject to Section 8.3 hereof, each Option shall become exercisable at such times and under such conditions (including, without limitation, performance requirements) as stated in the Award Agreement.
8.3. Term.
Each Option shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten (10) years from the Grant Date, or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Board and stated in the related Award Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that the Grantee is a Ten Percent Stockholder, an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option at the Grant Date shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five (5) years from its Grant Date.
8.4. Limitations on Exercise of Option.
Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, (i) prior to the date the Plan is approved by the stockholders of the Company as provided herein or (ii) after the occurrence of an event which results in termination of the Option.
8.5. Method of Exercise.
An Option that is exercisable may be exercised by the Grantee’s delivery of a notice of exercise to the Company, setting forth the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment for the shares. To be effective, notice of exercise must be made in accordance with procedures established by the Company from time to time.
8.6. Rights of Holders of Options.
Unless otherwise stated in the related Award Agreement, an individual holding or exercising an Option shall have none of the rights of a stockholder (for example, the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the subject shares of Stock or to direct the voting of the subject shares of Stock) until the shares of Stock covered thereby are fully paid and issued to him or her. Except as provided in Section 15 hereof or the related Award Agreement, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such issuance.
8.7. Delivery of Stock Certificates.
Promptly after the exercise of an Option by a Grantee and the payment in full of the Option Price, such Grantee shall be entitled to the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates evidencing his or her ownership of the shares of Stock subject to the Option.
8.8. Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.
An Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option only (i) if the Grantee of such Option is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; (ii) to the extent specifically provided in the related Award Agreement; and (iii) to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the shares of Stock with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options held by such Grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Grantee’s employer and its Affiliates) does not exceed $100,000. This limitation shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

9. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS
9.1. Right to Payment.
A SAR shall confer on the Grantee a right to receive, upon exercise thereof, the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of one share of Stock on the date of exercise over (ii) the SAR Exercise Price, as determined by the Board. The Award Agreement for a SAR (except those that constitute Substitute Awards) shall specify the SAR Exercise Price, which shall be fixed on the Grant Date as not less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on that date. SARs may be granted alone or in conjunction with all or part of an Option or at any subsequent time during the term of such Option or in conjunction with all or part of any other Award. A SAR granted in tandem with an outstanding Option following the Grant Date of such Option shall have a grant price that is equal to the Option Price; provided, however, that the SAR’s grant price may not be less than the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date of the SAR to the extent required by Section 409A.
9.2. Other Terms.
The Board shall determine at the Grant Date, the time or times at which and the circumstances under which a SAR may be exercised in whole or in part (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), the time or times at which SARs shall cease to be or become exercisable following Separation from Service or upon other conditions, the method of exercise, whether or not a SAR shall be in tandem or in combination with any other Award, and any other terms and conditions of any SAR.
9.3. Term of SARs.
The term of a SAR granted under the Plan shall be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion; provided, however, that such term shall not exceed ten (10) years.
9.4. Payment of SAR Amount.
Upon exercise of a SAR, a Grantee shall be entitled to receive payment from the Company (in cash or Stock, as determined by the Board) in an amount determined by multiplying:
(i)the difference between the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of exercise over the SAR Exercise Price; by
i.the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the SAR is exercised.
10. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS
10.1. Restrictions.
At the time of grant, the Board may, in its sole discretion, establish a period of time (a “Restricted Period”) and any additional restrictions including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives applicable to an Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units in accordance with Section 12.1. Each Award of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units may be subject to a different Restricted Period and additional restrictions. Neither Restricted Stock nor Restricted Stock Units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the Restricted Period or prior to the satisfaction of any other applicable restrictions.
10.2. Restricted Stock Certificates.
The Company shall issue stock, in the name of each Grantee to whom Restricted Stock has been granted, stock certificates or other evidence of ownership representing the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Grant Date. The Board may provide in an Award Agreement that either (i) the Secretary of the Company shall hold such certificates for the Grantee’s benefit until such time as the Restricted Stock is forfeited to the Company or the restrictions lapse, or (ii) such certificates shall be delivered to the Grantee; provided, however, that such certificates shall bear a legend or legends that comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and make appropriate reference to the restrictions imposed under the Plan and the Award Agreement.
10.3. Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock.
Unless the Board otherwise provides in an Award Agreement and subject to Section 17.12, holders of Restricted Stock shall have rights as stockholders of the Company, including voting and dividend rights (subject to Section 3.3).
46

10.4. Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock Units.
10.4.1. Settlement of Restricted Stock Units.
Restricted Stock Units may be settled in cash or Stock, as determined by the Board and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Award Agreement shall also set forth whether the Restricted Stock Units shall be settled (i) within the time period specified for “short term deferrals” under Section 409A or (ii) otherwise within the requirements of Section 409A, in which case the Award Agreement shall specify upon which events such Restricted Stock Units shall be settled.
10.4.2. Voting and Dividend Rights.
Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement and subject to Section 17.12, holders of Restricted Stock Units shall not have rights as stockholders of the Company, including no voting or dividend or dividend equivalents rights.
10.4.3. Creditor’s Rights.
A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Award Agreement.
10.5. Purchase of Restricted Stock.
The Grantee shall be required, to the extent required by applicable law, to purchase the Restricted Stock from the Company at a Purchase Price equal to the greater of (i) the aggregate par value of the shares of Stock represented by such Restricted Stock or (ii) the Purchase Price, if any, specified in the related Award Agreement. If specified in the Award Agreement, the Purchase Price may be deemed paid by Services already rendered. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 11 or, in the discretion of the Board, in consideration for past Services rendered.
10.6. Delivery of Stock.
Upon the expiration or termination of any Restricted Period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Board, the restrictions applicable to shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units settled in Stock shall lapse, and, unless otherwise provided in the Award Agreement, a stock certificate for such shares shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions, to the Grantee or the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.
11. FORM OF PAYMENT FOR OPTIONS AND RESTRICTED STOCK
11.1. General Rule.
Payment of the Option Price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock shall be made in cash or in cash equivalents acceptable to the Company, except as provided in this Section 11. A promissory note may not be used as a form of consideration for exercising an Option or paying the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock.
11.2. Surrender of Stock.
To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price for shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made all or in part through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shares shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price or Purchase Price for Restricted Stock has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise or surrender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the right to make payment in the form of already owned shares of Stock may be authorized only at the time of grant.
11.3. Cashless Exercise.
With respect to an Option only (and not with respect to Restricted Stock), to the extent permitted by law and to the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price may be made all or in part by delivery (on a form acceptable to the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a licensed securities broker acceptable to the Company to sell shares of Stock and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company in payment of the Option Price and any withholding taxes described in Section 17.3.
47

11.4. Other Forms of Payment.
To the extent the Award Agreement so provides, payment of the Option Price or the Purchase Price for Restricted Stock may be made in any other form that is consistent with applicable laws, regulations and rules, including, but not limited to, the Company’s withholding of shares of Stock otherwise due to the exercising Grantee.
12. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF PERFORMANCE-BASED AWARDS
12.1. Performance Conditions.
The right of a Grantee to exercise or receive a grant or settlement of any Award, and the timing thereof, may be subject to such performance conditions as may be specified by the Committee. The Committee may use such business criteria and other measures of performance as it may deem appropriate in establishing any performance conditions.
12.2. Settlement of Performance-Based Awards; Other Terms.
Settlement of performance-based Awards shall be in cash, Stock, other Awards or other property, in the discretion of the Committee. The Committee may, in its discretion, reduce the amount of a settlement otherwise to be made in connection with such performance-based Awards.
13. OTHER STOCK-BASED AWARDS.
13.1. Grant of Other Stock-based Awards.
Other Stock-based Awards may be granted either alone or in addition to or in conjunction with other Awards under the Plan. Other Stock-based Awards may be granted in lieu of other cash or other compensation to which a Service Provider is entitled from the Company or may be used in the settlement of amounts payable in shares of Common Stock under any other compensation plan or arrangement of the Company. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee shall have the sole and complete authority to determine the persons to whom and the time or times at which such Awards shall be made, the number of shares of Common Stock to be granted pursuant to such Awards, and all other conditions of such Awards. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, any such Award shall be confirmed by an Award Agreement, which shall contain such provisions as the Committee determines to be necessary or appropriate to carry out the intent of this Plan with respect to such Award.
13.2. Terms of Other Stock-based Awards.
Any Common Stock subject to Awards made under this Section 13 may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered prior to the date on which the shares are issued, or, if later, the date on which any applicable restriction, performance or deferral period lapses.
14. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW
14.1. General.
The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Award if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising an Option, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to an Award upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Award unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Award. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any Option or the delivery of any shares of Stock underlying an Award, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Award, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be
48

exercisable until the shares of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.
14.2. Rule 16b-3.
During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Awards, and the exercise of Options granted to officers and directors hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Board or Committee does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Board may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement.
15. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION
15.1. Changes in Stock.
If (i) the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, or (ii) there occurs any spin-off, split-up, extraordinary cash dividend or other distribution of assets by the Company, the number and kinds of shares for which grants of Awards may be made under the Plan shall be equitably adjusted by the Company; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A. In addition, in the event of any such increase or decrease, change or exchange, or other transaction described in clause (ii) above, the number and kind of shares for which Awards are outstanding and the Option Price per share of outstanding Options and SAR Exercise Price per share of outstanding SARs shall be equitably adjusted; provided that any such adjustment shall comply with Section 409A.
15.2. Effect of Certain Transactions.
Except as otherwise provided in an Award Agreement and subject to the provisions of Section 15.3, in the event of a Corporate Transaction, the Plan and the Awards issued hereunder shall continue in effect in accordance with their respective terms, except that following a Corporate Transaction either (i) each outstanding Award shall be treated as provided for in the agreement entered into in connection with the Corporate Transaction or (ii) if not so provided in such agreement, each Grantee shall be entitled to receive in respect of each share of Common Stock subject to any outstanding Awards, upon exercise or payment or transfer in respect of any Award, the same number and kind of stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration that each holder of a share of Common Stock was entitled to receive in the Corporate Transaction in respect of a share of Common stock; provided, however, that, unless otherwise determined by the Committee, such stock, securities, cash, property or other consideration shall remain subject to all of the conditions, restrictions and performance criteria which were applicable to the Awards prior to such Corporate Transaction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the treatment of outstanding Options and SARs pursuant to this Section 15.2 in connection with a Corporate Transaction in which the consideration paid or distributed to the Company’s stockholders is not entirely shares of common stock of the acquiring or resulting corporation may include the cancellation of outstanding Options and SARs upon consummation of the Corporate Transaction as long as, at the election of the Committee, (i) the holders of affected Options and SARs have been given a period of at least fifteen days prior to the date of the consummation of the Corporate Transaction to exercise the Options or SARs (to the extent otherwise exercisable) or (ii) the holders of the affected Options and SARs are paid (in cash or cash equivalents) in respect of each Share covered by the Option or SAR being canceled an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the per share price paid or distributed to stockholders in the Corporate Transaction (the value of any non-cash consideration to be determined by the Committee in its sole discretion) over the Option Price or SAR Exercise Price, as applicable. For avoidance of doubt, (1) the cancellation of Options and SARs pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence may be effected notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Plan or any Award Agreement and (2) if the amount determined pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence is zero or less, the affected Option or SAR may be cancelled without any payment therefore. The treatment of any Award as provided in this Section 15.2 shall be conclusively presumed to be appropriate for purposes of Section 15.1.
15.3. Change in Control
15.3.1. Consequences of a Change in Control
49

For Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors, except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Award Agreement, upon a Change in Control all outstanding Awards that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to outstanding Awards shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and any specified performance goals with respect to outstanding Awards shall be deemed to be satisfied at target.
For Awards granted to any other Service Providers, except as may otherwise be provided in the applicable Award Agreement, either of the following provisions shall apply, depending on whether, and the extent to which, Awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in a Change in Control:
(i) To the extent such Awards are not assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the Change in Control, then upon the Change in Control such outstanding Awards that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding Awards, other than for performance-based Awards, shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding performance-based Awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the Change in Control based upon the greater of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of the Company’s fiscal quarter end preceding the Change in Control and, in each case, the performance-based Award shall become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the Change in Control.
(ii) To the extent such Awards are assumed, converted or replaced by the resulting entity in the Change in Control, if, within two years after the date of the Change in Control, the Service Provider has a Separation from Service either (1) by the Company other than for “cause” or (2) by the Service Provider for “good reason” (each as defined in the applicable Award Agreement), then such outstanding Awards that may be exercised shall become fully exercisable, all restrictions with respect to such outstanding Awards, other than for performance-based Awards, shall lapse and become vested and non-forfeitable, and for any outstanding performance-based Awards the target payout opportunities attainable under such Awards shall be deemed to have been fully earned as of the Separation from Service based upon the greater of: (A) an assumed achievement of all relevant performance goals at the “target” level, or (B) the actual level of achievement of all relevant performance goals against target as of the Company’s fiscal quarter end preceding the Change in Control and, in each case, the performance-based Awards shall become vested pro rata based on the portion of the applicable performance period completed through the date of the Separation from Service.
15.3.2. Change in Control Defined
Except as may otherwise be defined in an Award Agreement, a “Change in Control” shall mean a “change in control event” with respect to the Company within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.409A-3(i)(5).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if it is determined that an Award hereunder is subject to the requirements of Section 409A and payable upon a Change in Control, the Company will not be deemed to have undergone a Change in Control unless the Company is deemed to have undergone a “change in control event” pursuant to the definition of such term in Section 409A.
15.4. Adjustments
Adjustments under this Section 15 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share.
16. NO LIMITATIONS ON COMPANY
The making of Awards pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.
17. TERMS APPLICABLE GENERALLY TO AWARDS GRANTED UNDER THE PLAN
17.1. Disclaimer of Rights.
No provision in the Plan or in any Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate, or to interfere in any way with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement,
50

no Award granted under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Grantee, so long as such Grantee continues to be a Service Provider. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any amounts to a third-party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any Grantee or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan.
17.2. Nonexclusivity of the Plan.
Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the stockholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or particular individuals), including, without limitation, the granting of stock options as the Board in its discretion determines desirable.
17.3. Withholding Taxes.
The Company or an Affiliate, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld (i) with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to an Award, (ii) upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option or SAR, or (iii) otherwise due in connection with an Award. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or the Affiliate may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Affiliate, which may be withheld by the Company or the Affiliate, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, or the Company may require such obligations to be satisfied, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Affiliate to withhold the required number of shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee as may be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation (not to exceed the maximum statutory rate applicable to the Grantee) or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Affiliate shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations. The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or the Affiliate as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined or such other date as reasonably determined by the Board or the Committee. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 17.3 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.
17.4. Captions.
The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement.
17.5. Other Provisions.
Each Award Agreement may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion. In the event of any conflict between the terms of an employment agreement and the Plan, the terms of the employment agreement govern.
17.6. Number and Gender.
With respect to words used in this Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, etc., as the context requires.
17.7. Severability.
If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.
17.8. Governing Law.
The Plan shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of conflicts of law, and applicable Federal law.
51

17.9. Section 409A.
The Plan is intended to comply with Section 409A to the extent subject thereto, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted and administered to be in compliance therewith. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short-term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable laws require otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent required to avoid accelerated taxation and tax penalties under Section 409A, amounts that would otherwise be payable and benefits that would otherwise be provided pursuant to the Plan during the six (6) month period immediately following the Grantee’s Separation from Service shall instead be paid on the first payroll date after the six-month anniversary of the Grantee’s Separation from Service (or the Grantee’s death, if earlier). Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Company nor the Committee shall have any obligation to take any action to prevent the assessment of any excise tax or penalty on any Grantee under Section 409A and neither the Company nor the Committee will have any liability to any Grantee for such tax or penalty.
17.10. Separation from Service.
The Board shall determine the effect of a Separation from Service upon Awards, and such effect shall be set forth in the appropriate Award Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, the Board may provide in the Award Agreements at the time of grant, or any time thereafter with the consent of the Grantee, the actions that will be taken upon the occurrence of a Separation from Service, including, but not limited to, accelerated vesting or termination, depending upon the circumstances surrounding the Separation from Service.
17.11. Transferability of Awards.
17.11.1. Transfers in General.
Except as provided in Section 17.11.2, no Award shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and, during the lifetime of the Grantee, only the Grantee personally (or the Grantee’s personal representative) may exercise rights under the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, Awards may not be transferred to financial institutions.
17.11.2. Family Transfers.
If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer, not for value, all or part of an Award (other than Incentive Stock Options) to any Family Member. For the purpose of this Section 17.11.2, a “not for value” transfer is a transfer which is (i) a gift, (ii) a transfer under a domestic relations order in settlement of marital property rights; or (iii) a transfer to an entity in which more than fifty percent of the voting interests are owned by Family Members (or the Grantee) in exchange for an interest in that entity. Following a transfer under this Section 17.11.2, any such Award shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable immediately prior to transfer. Subsequent transfers of transferred Awards are prohibited except to Family Members of the original Grantee in accordance with this Section 17.11.2 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution.
The Plan was adopted by the Board of Directors on March 27, 2025 and was approved by the stockholders of the Company on , 2025.
