TRANSITION AND RELEASE AGREEMENT
EXHIBIT 10.2
This Transition and Release Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between Xxxx Xxxx (“Employee”) and Berkeley Lights, Inc. (the “Company”), dated as of March 8, 2022 (the “Agreement Date”) and effective as of the eighth (8th) day following the date on which Employee signs this Agreement if not revoked in accordance with Section 6(g) below (the “Effective Date”). The purpose of this Agreement is to provide separation pay to ease Employee’s transition related to the Company and to settle and resolve any and all disputes and controversies of any nature existing between Employee and the Company, including, but not limited to, any claims arising out of Employee’s employment with, and transition related to, the Company.
1.Separation and Transition of Services.
(a)Separation. Employee’s last day of employment with the Company shall be April 1, 2022 (the “Separation Date”). Effective as of the Separation Date, Employee’s employment with the Company and all of its affiliates and status as an officer of the Company and all of its affiliates shall terminate and Employee shall cease to be an employee and an officer of all of the foregoing.
(b)Consulting Services. During the period (the “Consulting Period”) commencing on the Separation Date and ending on the later of (i) April 30, 2022 or (ii) if the Company’s first quarter earnings release has not been previously issued, May 8, 2022, or unless terminated earlier by the Company or Employee for any reason, (the “Consulting End Date”), Employee shall be available to provide services to the Company and its affiliates, on a non-exclusive and part-time basis, as a consultant and shall provide such reasonable services as may be requested by the Company or its affiliates (the “Transition Services”). During the Consulting Period, Employee may become an employee or consultant of any other company, provided, that Employee acknowledges and agrees that, during the Consulting Period, Employee shall not, directly or indirectly, become employed by or provide assistance to any commercial oriented life- sciences company. During the Consulting Period, Employee reaffirms his commitment to remain in compliance with the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined below), it being understood that the term “employment” as used in the Confidentiality Agreement shall include services as a consultant hereunder. If Employee violates the previous sentence, this Agreement and the Consulting Period shall be terminated immediately and the Employee shall have no further right or entitlement to the continued vesting of the Equity Award (as defined below).
(c)Consulting Fee. In exchange for the performance of the performance of the Transition Services during the Consulting Period, subject to Consultant continuing to provide the Transition Services through the Consulting End Date and Employee’s continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee an amount in cash equal to $50,000. Such amount shall be payable to Employee in two installments of
$25,000, with the first installment to be paid on or within five days following April 15, 2022 and the second installment to be paid on or within five days following the Consulting End Date.
(d)Return of Company Property. Employee represents and warrants that he shall, prior to the Consulting Period End Date, return to the Company any and all property and equipment of the Company, including (i) all keys, files, lists, books and records (and copies thereof) of, or in connection with, the Company’s business, equipment (including, but not limited to, computer hardware, software and printers, wireless handheld devices, cellular phones and pagers), access or credit cards, Company identification, and all other property belonging to the Company in Employee’s possession or control, and
(ii) all documents and copies, including hard and electronic copies, of documents in Employee’s possession relating to any confidential information, including without limitation, internal and external business forms, manuals, correspondence, notes and computer programs, and that Employee shall not make or retain any
copy or extract of any of the foregoing. To ensure the foregoing, prior to or on the Consulting Period End Date, Employee shall make available to the Company all devices, including cellular phones and laptop computers, and other property that may include Company confidential information, so that the Company has the prior opportunity to review, redact and/or retain any such documents containing confidential information on such devices.
(e)Equity Awards. As of the Separation Date, Employee will hold options to purchase those shares of Company common stock and Company restricted stock units pursuant to the Company’s equity incentive plans and the individual agreements evidencing such grants (collectively, the “Equity Awards”). In exchange for the performance of the Transition Services, during the Consulting Period, the Equity Awards shall continue to vest and, if applicable, become exercisable in accordance with their amended vesting schedules as provided in Section 3 below). Upon the Consulting End Date, Employee’s Equity Awards shall cease vesting and any unvested shares as of such date shall automatically terminate. Employee acknowledges that each unexercised “incentive stock option” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, including the Acceleration Options, that remains unexercised following the three (3)-month anniversary of the Separation Date shall no longer qualify for favorable tax treatment as an incentive stock option.
(f)Benefits. As an independent contractor, Employee understands and agrees that, while performing any services for the Company or its affiliates after the Separation Date, Employee shall not be eligible to participate in or accrue benefits under any Company benefit plan for which status as an employee of the Company is a condition of such participation or accrual. To the extent that Employee was deemed eligible to participate, as an employee, in any Company benefit plan, he hereby waives his participation. Following the Separation Date, the Company shall notify Employee of any right to continue group health plan coverage sponsored by the Company or an affiliate of the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended (“COBRA”), which Employee may elect to receive at Employee’s expense in accordance with the provisions of COBRA.
(g)Independent Contractor Status. Employee and the Company acknowledge and agree that, during the Consulting Period, Employee shall be an independent contractor. During the Consulting Period and thereafter, Employee shall not be an agent or employee of the Company and shall not be authorized to act on behalf of the Company. Employee agrees to indemnify and hold the Company and the other entities released herein harmless for any tax claims or penalties resulting from any failure by Employee to make required personal income and self-employment tax payments.
2.Accrued Obligations. Upon the Separation Date, the Company will pay to Employee (i) all accrued salary, and (ii) all accrued, unused paid time off through the Separation Date, and (iii) any unreimbursed business expenses incurred by Employee, in accordance with Company policy, prior to the Separation Date (collectively, the “Accrued Obligations”). Employee agrees that prior to the Separation Date, Employee has submitted Employee’s final documented expense reimbursement statement reflecting all business expenses Employee incurred through the Separation Date, if any, for which Employee seeks reimbursement. Employee is entitled to these payments regardless of whether Employee executes this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, Employee shall not be eligible to receive any bonus payment for his service for the year in which the Separation Date occurs.
3.Separation Benefits. In consideration of, and subject to and conditioned upon (i) Employee’s timely execution and non-revocation of this Agreement and (ii) Employee’s continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Confidentiality Agreement, the Company shall pay to Employee an amount equal to a pro-rata portion of his annual bonus for the first quarter of calendar year 2022, based on achievement of the performance goals at target (whereby Employee’s target annual bonus for 2022 was based on 50% of his annual base salary). Such payment,
shall be paid, less applicable withholdings and deductions, on the later to occur of the Effective Date or the first payroll date following the Separation Date.
4.SEC Reporting. Employee acknowledges that to the extent required by the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), he will have continuing obligations under and he will continue to abide by Section 16(a) and 16(b) of the Exchange Act to report his transactions in Company common stock for six (6) months following the Separation Date.
5.Warranty. Employee acknowledges that all benefits under Section 3 constitute additional compensation to which Employee would not be entitled except for Employee’s decision to sign this Agreement and to abide by the terms of this Agreement. Employee acknowledges that, upon receipt of the Accrued Obligations, Employee has received all monies and other benefits due to Employee as a result of his employment with and separation from the Company, other than any continued vesting of Equity Awards during the Consulting Period. Employee further represents that to the best of Employee’s knowledge he has not sustained a work-related injury or illness which he has not previously reported to the Company.

13.Headings. The headings in this Agreement are provided solely for convenience, and are not intended to be part of, nor to affect or alter the interpretation or meaning of, this Agreement.
14.Severability.

In the event that any language of this Agreement is found to be ambiguous, each party shall have an opportunity to present evidence as to the actual intent of the parties with respect to any such ambiguous language.
17.Entire Agreement/Integration.
