NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and promises of the Parties contained herein, the Parties, intending to be legally bound, hereby agree as follows:
1. Title and Job Duties.
(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, the Company agrees to employ Executive as Chief Executive Officer and President. Executive shall report directly to the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”).
(b) Executive accepts such employment and agrees, during the term of her employment, to devote her business and professional time and energy to the Company, and agrees faithfully to perform her duties and responsibilities in an efficient, trustworthy and business-like manner. Executive also agrees that the Board shall determine from time to time such other duties as may be assigned to her. Executive agrees to carry out and abide by such directions of the Board.
(c) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Executive shall not, without the written approval of the Company, render services of a business or commercial nature on her own behalf or on behalf of any other person, firm, or corporation, whether for compensation or otherwise, during her employment hereunder; provided, however, the Company hereby approves of the Executive’s limited activities, which shall not interfere with Executive’s ability to perform hereunder, in consulting roles as they exist on the Effective Date. The foregoing limitation shall not apply to Executive’s involvement in associations, charities and service on another entity’s board of directors, provided such involvement does not interfere with Executives responsibilities (and as it pertains to any service on another entity’s board of directors, provided such action is pre-approved by the Company).
2. Salary and Additional Compensation.
(a) Base Salary. The Company shall pay to Executive an annual base salary (“Base Salary”) of $300,000 in accordance with the Company’s normal payroll procedures. The Compensation Committee shall review the Executive’s Base Salary no less than annually and may increase (but not decrease) such Base Salary during the term of this Agreement.
(b) Annual Bonus. Commencing with the year ending March 31, 2024, Executive will be entitled to receive an annual cash bonus (the “Annual Bonus”), payable with respect to each compensation year of the Term subsequent to the issuance of the Company’s final audited financial statements for such year. The target Annual Bonus for the the year ending March 31, 2024 will be 50% of Base Salary. The final determination on the amount, if any, of the Annual Bonus will be made by, and in the sole discretion of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) (or the Board, if such committee has not been established or has been dissolved), based on criteria established by the Compensation Committee of the Board (or the Board, if such committee has not been established or has been dissolved). For the compensation year (the “compensation year” shall initially be the Company’s fiscal year, and is subject to change by the Company) in which Executive commences employment with the Company, Executive will be entitled to receive an Annual Bonus which is prorated based on the number of days from the Effective Date until the end of the fiscal year divided by 365.

(c) Option Grant. Contemporaneous with the Executive’s execution of this Agreement, Executive will receive a grant (the “Stock Option Grant”) of stock options (the “Stock Options”) to purchase 933,600 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price per share of $2.00. The Stock Options shall have a term of ten years and shall vest in forty-eight (48) equal installments (or 19,450 shares each installment) on each of the succeeding forty-eight monthly anniversary dates of the Executive's execution of this Agreement (i.e. the first such installment shall vest on the first monthly anniversary of the Effective Date of this Agreement), provided Executive is either CEO or as a member of the Board of Directors on such vesting date. If the Executive becomes a member of the Board of Directors and not employed as a CEO, the Compensation Committee retains the right to reduce the unvested portion of the Stock Option Grant by an appropriate amount, at their sole discretion, but the resulting reduced unvested portion of the Stock Option Grant shall not be less than 2% of the outstanding fully diluted shares at time of the reduction. The Stock Option Grant shall be made pursuant to the Autonomix Medical, Inc. 2023 Stock Plan (the “Stock Plan”), and shall in all respects be subject to the terms and conditions of such plan. The vesting of the Stock Option Grant shall be accelerated upon a Change in Control (as defined in the Stock Plan) or Executive’s termination of employment by the Company without Cause or by Executive with Good Reason.
(d) Annual Option Grant. For each compensation year during the Term commencing with the March 31, 2024-2025 fiscal year, Executive will be entitled to receive an annual option grant under the Stock Plan (the "Annual Grant"), subject to the availability of shares of common stock under the Stock Plan, within ninety (90) days of the completion of such compensation year, provided Executive is employed by the Company on such date. The final determination on the amount, if any, of the Annual Grant will be made by, and in the sole discretion of, the Compensation Committee (or the Board, if such committee has not been formed or has been dissolved), based on goals and objectives approved by the Compensation Committee of the Board (or the Board, if such committee has not been formed or has been dissolved). The target Annual Grant for the first year full compensation year subsequent to the Company’s initial public offering will determined by dividing $300,000 by the Black-Scholes value per option share of Common Stock on the date of grant. The Annual Grant shall have a term of ten years and shall vest in four (4) equal installments on each of the succeeding four anniversary dates of the date of grant, provided Executive remains continuously employed by Company through each such vesting date. The Annual Grant shall be made pursuant to the Stock Plan, and shall in all respects be subject to the terms and conditions of such plan.
(e) Expenses. In accordance with Company policy, the Company shall reimburse Executive for all reasonable association fees, professional related expenses (certifications, licenses and continuing professional education) and business expenses properly and necessarily incurred and paid by Executive in the performance of her duties under this Agreement, including without limitation all travel expenses to and from her designated office as set forth in the opening paragraph of this Agreement, upon her presentment of detailed receipts in the form required by the Company’s policy.

Executive shall be eligible to participate in the Company’s medical, dental and other employee benefit programs, if any, that are provided by the Company for its employees at Executive’s level in accordance with the provisions of any such plans, as the same may be in effect from time to time. In recognition of the fact that the Company does not have medical or dental plans in place as of the Effective Date, the Company agrees to reimburse the Executive for her payment of medical and dental insurance premiums for coverage from her prior employer under COBRA for the lesser of three months after the Effective Date or until the Company has established medical and dental health plans.
