Filing excerpt

the Implementation Agreement (i) focuses on retaining Mr. Musk’s continued service at a critical time for the Company and restricts the timing of Mr. Musk’s access to the economics associated with the 2018 CEO Performance Award by imposing a service-based vesting condition on restricted shares of common stock to be issued to Mr. Musk upon exercise of the 2018 CEO Performance Award, requiring him to remain in continuous service as CEO or as an executive officer responsible for product development or operations (as approved by the Board’s disinterested directors) through January 19, 2028
