The Reporting Person delivered notice of the intended exercise date and method to the Company on June 9, 2026 in accordance with the five business day notice period pursuant to the Implementation Agreement. The shares of restricted stock are scheduled to vest on January 19, 2028, subject to the Reporting Person's satisfaction of a service-based vesting condition.

The shares of restricted stock are subject to a voting agreement, and the Reporting Person has given an irrevocable proxy to the Company's secretary to vote the shares in accordance with the terms of the voting agreement. The earning of each tranche is subject to satisfaction of certain conditions. If earned on or prior to September 3, 2030, the tranches of restricted stock will vest on March 3, 2033, and if earned from September 4, 2030 through September 3, 2035, the tranches of restricted stock will vest on September 3, 2035, in each case subject to satisfaction of certain conditions.
3. Represents shares of common stock withheld by the Company in connection with net share settlement, in accordance with the Implementation Agreement, to satisfy the Reporting Person's exercise price obligations related to the Reporting Person's exercise of the Award.

4. The Elon Musk Revocable Trust dated July 22, 2003, for which the Reporting Person is the trustee.

The Company's shareholders approved the Award on March 21, 2018.
