On July 22, 2026, Adeia's compensation committee approved changes to severance agreements with its CFO Keith A. Jones, Chief Revenue Officer Dr. Mark Kokes, and Chief Legal Officer Kevin Tanji. The changes add equity vesting acceleration on a qualifying termination, and the amended agreements will be filed with the 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026, so the full terms are not yet public.

  • Qualifying termination now accelerates vesting of equity awards scheduled to vest within 12 months of termination
  • Performance awards vest on actual performance for completed fiscal years and the greater of target or actual performance for other goals
  • Amended agreements to be filed as an exhibit to the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026
