Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(e) On July 30, 2022, Volta Inc. (the "Company") and Vincent T. Cubbage, the Company's Interim Chief Executive Officer, entered into an offer letter (the "Offer Letter"). The Offer Letter is dated July 29, 2022 but is effective as of June 13, 2022 (the "Start Date"), which is the commencement date of Mr. Cubbage's service in his capacity as Interim Chief Executive Officer, and provides for, among other things, an annual base salary of $500,000 and 420,000 restricted stock units ("RSUs"). Each RSU represents a contractual right to receive one share of the Company's Class A common stock upon vesting and settlement of the RSU. Of the RSUs, 50% will vest six months after the Start Date and the remaining 50% will vest twelve months after the Start Date. Any unvested RSUs will immediately vest upon a change of control or the hiring of a successor Chief Executive Officer.

During the period that Mr. Cubbage serves as the Interim Chief Executive Officer, he will not be eligible to receive the compensation provided to non-employee directors under the director compensation policy (the "DCP") previously approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board"), except that he will receive the annual grant of RSUs under the DCP related to the most recently completed annual meeting of the Company's stockholders in July 2022, subject to the same terms and conditions applicable to the grants made to the non-employee members of the Board pursuant to the DCP.

The Offer Letter contains certain restrictive covenants that apply during and after Mr. Cubbage's employment, including confidentiality agreements. On July 30, 2022, the Board approved the Offer Letter.

The foregoing summary of the Offer Letter does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Offer Letter, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 5.02.
