(d) Appointment of a New Director
On May 27, 2021, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Monolithic Power Systems, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Carintia Martinez to serve as a member of the Board, effective immediately. Ms. Martinez was appointed as a Class III director whose term will expire at the annual meeting of stockholders to be held in 2022. Ms. Martinez was not appointed to serve on any committees of the Board in connection with her initial appointment as a director.
Ms. Martinez, 55, has served as Vice President, Chief Information Officer of Thales Alenia Space, a European aerospace manufacturer specializing in satellite systems, since January 2018. From February 2008 to December 2017, Ms. Martinez held various senior positions, including Vice President of Renault-Nissan Alliance Quality and Vice President of Information Systems for Marketing and Sales, at Renault Group, a French automobile manufacturer. Prior to 2008, Ms. Martinez held a variety of managerial roles in information systems and other corporate functions under different entities within Renault Group and Nissan Motor Corporation. Ms. Martinez holds a master’s degree in Architecture and City Planning from Pontificia Universidade Catolica do Parana in Brazil, a master’s degree in Project Management from Université de Technologie de Compiègne in France, and a master’s degree in Urban Planning from Université Paris XII - Val de Marne and Ecole Nationale des
Ponts et Chaussées in France.
In connection with her participation in the Company's standard director compensation policies and programs, Ms. Martinez was granted an initial equity award of 583 shares of restricted stock units (“RSUs”), 50% of which will vest on the one-year anniversary of the grant date and the remaining 50% of which will vest on the two-year anniversary of the grant date. In addition, Ms. Martinez will receive a prorated annual Board retainer fee of $70,000 for 2021. If Ms. Martinez is a director of the Company on the date of a change of control that occurs before the two-year anniversary of the grant date, in the event that a successor corporation refuses to assume or substitute the RSUs with an equivalent right, 100% of the shares subject to the RSUs will immediately vest as of the effective
date of such change of control. The Company will also reimburse Ms. Martinez all reasonable expenses in connection with her service to the Company. The foregoing description of Ms. Martinez’s offer letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the offer letter, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report.
Ms. Martinez executed the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.2 to this report. The indemnification agreement requires the Company to indemnify Ms. Martinez to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of her service to the Company, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against her as to which she could be indemnified, among other things.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Ms. Martinez and any other persons pursuant to which Ms. Martinez was selected as a director of the Company, and there are no related party transactions between the Company and Ms. Martinez that would require disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
