Chief Executive Officer Transition

On September 2, 2025, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of MicroVision, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Glen W. DeVos, the Company’s current Chief Technology Officer, to be the Company’s President and Chief Executive Officer and a member of the Company’s Board as of September 30, 2025 (the “Effective Date”), taking the place of the Company’s current President and Chief Executive Officer, Sumit Sharma, who will continue to serve in that role until the Effective Date.

In connection with his appointment as President and Chief Executive Officer, the Company and Mr. DeVos have entered an employment agreement (the “2025 CEO Agreement”). The 2025 CEO Agreement includes the following terms and conditions: (i) Mr. DeVos’s base salary will be $530,000 per annum, as may be adjusted from time to time at the discretion of the Board; (ii) Mr. DeVos will be eligible for short-term incentive compensation, including equity compensation, which will be determined at the discretion of the Board; (iii) Mr. DeVos will participate in the Company’s Key Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan at the highest benefit levels previously disclosed in the Company’s Form 8-K filed June 10, 2024; and (iv) Mr. DeVos will participate in the benefits and programs generally available to other employees of the Company, including expense reimbursement, retirement, insurance and vacation.

As of the Effective Date, and pursuant to the terms of the 2025 CEO Agreement, the Board approved a short-term incentive bonus opportunity of 100% of Mr. DeVos’ base salary tied to achievement of certain company financial, team and individual business objectives pursuant to the terms of the 2025 Executive Bonus Plan for Mr. DeVos. Additionally, on the Effective Date, Mr. DeVos will receive a grant of 539,000 RSUs to account for the difference between the grant for his new role as Chief Executive Officer and his former role as Chief Technology Officer. These RSUs will vest on June 6, 2026, only upon satisfactory achievement of specified company financial objectives and individual business objectives. In 2026, the Board, in its discretion, expects to determine a long-term incentive equity structure for Mr. DeVos.

There are no family relationships between Mr. DeVos and any Company director or executive officer, and there are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. DeVos and any other person pursuant to which he was appointed as Chief Executive Officer. Mr. DeVos is not a party to any current or proposed transaction with the Company for which disclosure is required under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

Mr. Sharma’s removal as President and Chief Executive Officer as of the Effective Date constitutes an “involuntary termination” for purposes of the Company’s Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan. Accordingly, subject to execution of a customary release, Mr. Sharma will receive the severance benefits to which he is entitled under such plan.

In connection with this transition, on September 2, 2025, Mr. Sharma resigned from the Board, effective as of the Effective Date. Mr. Sharma’s resignation from the Board was not due to any disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

For additional details on the Key Executive Severance and Change in Control Plan, please refer to the disclosure in the Company’s Form 8-K filed June 10, 2024. For additional details on the 2025 Executive Bonus Plan, please refer to the disclosure in the Company’s Form 8-K filed June 6, 2025.

Appointment of Executive Vice Chair

On September 2, 2025, the Board appointed Simon Biddiscombe, who currently serves as an independent director on the Board, to be the Company’s Executive Vice Chair as of the Effective Date to serve as a resource to Mr. DeVos, at the request of Mr. DeVos, for a temporary period of no more than twelve months.

In connection with his role as Executive Vice Chair, Mr. Biddiscombe will receive the following compensation: (i) a cash salary of $265,000 per annum, (ii) a sign-on equity award in the form of 241,000 RSUs, scheduled to vest in full on October 1, 2026, subject to Mr. Biddiscombe’s continuing provision of services to the Company at such date (whether as Executive Vice Chair, as an independent director, or otherwise), and (iii) full eligibility for Company benefits as a 50%-time or greater employee.

During the period that he serves as Executive Vice Chair, Mr. Biddiscombe will not be deemed an “independent director” pursuant to Nasdaq rules. Accordingly, for so long as he is serving as Executive Vice Chair, Mr. Biddiscombe will not serve as Chair of the Audit Committee and will not be a member of the Audit Committee or the Compensation Committee. The Board has appointed Robert Carlile, the Company’s Board Chair and a designated Audit Committee Financial Expert, to be Audit Committee Chair as of the Effective Date.
