On February 24, 2025, Cathy McCarthy notified Rigetti Computing, Inc.

In connection with Ms. McCarthy’s decision to not stand for re-election, the Compensation Committee of the Board and the Board have determined that 73,780 unvested restricted stock units held by Ms. McCarthy shall accelerate and vest effective as of the date immediately prior to the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting.
