This Consulting Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of January 9th, 2026 (the “Effective Date”) by and between RxSight, Inc. (the “Company”), and Shelley Thunen, an individual (“Consultant”) (each herein referred to individually as a “Party,” or collectively as the “Parties”).
The Company desires to retain Consultant as an independent contractor to perform consulting services for the Company, and Consultant is willing to perform such services, on the terms described below. In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, the Parties agree as follows:
1.Services and Compensation
Consultant shall perform the services described in Exhibit A.1 (the “Services”) for the Company (or its designee), and the Company agrees to pay Consultant the compensation described in Exhibit A.1 for Consultant’s performance of the Services.
A.Definition of Confidential Information. “Company Confidential Information” means any information (including any and all combinations of individual items of information) that the Company has or will develop, acquire, create, compile, discover or own, that has value in or to the Company’s business which is not generally known and which the Company wishes to maintain as confidential. Company Confidential Information includes both (i) information created by others that Consultant learns or that becomes available to Consultant through the Company or its agents; and (ii) information that Consultant creates that the Company owns pursuant to Section 3 of this Agreement. By way of example, and without limitation, Company Confidential Information includes any and all non-public information that relates to the actual or anticipated business and/or products, research or development of the Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries, or to the Company’s or its affiliates’ or subsidiaries’ technical data, trade secrets, or know-how, including, but not limited to, research, product plans, or other information regarding the Company’s or its affiliates’ or subsidiaries’ products or services and markets therefor, customer lists and customers (including, but not limited to, customers of the Company on which Consultant called or with which Consultant becomes acquainted during the term of this Agreement), software, developments, inventions, discoveries, ideas, processes, formulas, technology, designs, drawings, engineering, hardware configuration information, marketing, finances, and other business information disclosed by the Company, its affiliates or subsidiaries, either directly or indirectly, in writing, orally or by drawings or inspection of premises, parts, equipment, or other Company property. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Company Confidential Information does not include general knowledge, skill, and experience that Consultant has acquired during the course of or in connection with Consultant’s performance of the Services or from a former employer. Company Confidential Information shall not include any such information which Consultant can establish (i) was publicly known or made generally available prior to the time of disclosure by the Company to Consultant; (ii) becomes publicly known or made generally available after disclosure by the Company to Consultant through no wrongful action or omission by Consultant; or (iii) is in Consultant’s rightful possession, without confidentiality obligations, at the time of disclosure by the Company as shown by Consultant’s then-contemporaneous written records; provided that any combination of individual items of information shall not be deemed to be within any of the foregoing exceptions merely because one or more of the individual items are within such exception, unless the combination as a whole is within such exception.
B.Nonuse and Nondisclosure. During and after the term of this Agreement, Consultant will hold in the strictest confidence, and take all reasonable precautions to prevent any unauthorized use or disclosure of,
Company Confidential Information. Consultant will not (i) use Company Confidential Information for any purpose whatsoever other than as necessary for the performance of the Services on behalf of the Company, or (ii) subject to Consultant’s right to engage in protected conduct (as described in the Protected Activity Not Prohibited section below), disclose Company Confidential Information to any third party without the prior written consent of an authorized representative of the Company, except that Consultant may disclose Confidential Information to the extent compelled by applicable law or as required for purposes of carrying out the Services; provided however, prior to such disclosure, Consultant shall provide prior written notice to the Company and seek a protective order or such similar confidential protection as may be available under applicable law. Consultant agrees that no ownership of Company Confidential Information is conveyed to Consultant. Without limiting the foregoing, Consultant shall not use or disclose any Company property, intellectual property rights, trade secrets or other proprietary know-how of the Company to invent, author, make, develop, design, or otherwise enable others to invent, author, make, develop, or design identical or substantially similar designs as those developed under this Agreement for any third party. Consultant agrees that Consultant’s obligations under this Section 2.B shall continue after the termination of this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement prevents workers from engaging in protected conduct, as described in the Protected Activity Not Prohibited section below.
C.Other Client Confidential Information. Consultant agrees that Consultant will not improperly use, disclose, or induce the Company to use any proprietary information or trade secrets of any former or current employer of Consultant or other person or entity with which Consultant has an obligation to keep such proprietary information or trade secrets in confidence. Consultant further agrees that Consultant will not bring onto the Company’s premises or transfer onto the Company’s technology systems any unpublished document, proprietary information, or trade secrets belonging to any such third party unless disclosure to, and use by, the Company has been consented to, in writing, by such third party and the Company.
D.Third Party Confidential Information. Consultant recognizes that the Company has received, and in the future may receive, from third parties (for example, customers, suppliers, licensors, licensees, partners, and collaborators) as well as its subsidiaries and affiliates (“Associated Third Parties”), information which the Company is required to maintain and treat as confidential or proprietary information of such Associated Third Parties (“Associated Third Party Confidential Information”), and Consultant agrees to use such Associated Third Party Confidential Information only as directed by the Company and to not use or disclose such Associated Third Party Confidential Information in a manner that would violate the Company’s obligations to such Associated Third Parties. By way of example, Associated Third Party Confidential Information may include the habits or practices of Associated Third Parties, the technology of Associated Third Parties, requirements of Associated Third Parties, and information related to the business conducted between the Company and such Associated Third Parties. Consultant agrees that at all times during the term of this Agreement and thereafter, Consultant owes the Company and its Associated Third Parties a duty to hold all such Associated Third Party Confidential Information in the strictest confidence, and not to use it or to disclose it to any person, firm, corporation, or other third party except as necessary in carrying out the Services for the Company consistent with the Company’s agreement with such Associated Third Parties.
A.Assignment of Inventions. As between the Company and Consultant, Consultant agrees that all right, title, and interest in and to any and all copyrightable material, notes, records, drawings, designs, logos, inventions, improvements, developments, discoveries, ideas and trade secrets conceived, discovered, authored, invented, developed or reduced to practice by Consultant, solely or in collaboration with others, during the term of this Agreement and arising out of, or in connection with, performing the Services under this Agreement and any copyrights, patents, trade secrets, mask work rights or other intellectual property rights relating to the foregoing (collectively, “Inventions”), are the sole property of the Company. Consultant also agrees to promptly make full written disclosure to the Company of any Inventions and to deliver and assign (or cause to be assigned) and hereby irrevocably assigns fully to the Company all of Consultant’s right, title and interest in and to the Inventions. Consultant agrees that this assignment includes a present conveyance to the Company of ownership
of Inventions that are not yet in existence. Consultant understands and agrees that the decision whether or not to commercialize or market any Inventions is within the Company’s sole discretion and for the Company’s sole benefit, and that no royalty or other consideration will be due to Consultant as a result of the Company’s efforts to commercialize or market any such Inventions.
B.Pre-Existing Materials. Subject to Section 3.A, Consultant will inform the Company, in writing, before incorporating any inventions, discoveries, ideas, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, trade secrets, and other proprietary information or intellectual property rights owned by Consultant or in which Consultant has an interest, prior to, or separate from, performing the Services under this Agreement (“Prior Inventions”) into any Invention or otherwise utilizing any Prior Invention in the course of performing the Services; and the Company is hereby granted a nonexclusive, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, worldwide license (with the right to grant and authorize sublicenses) to make, have made, use, import, offer for sale, sell, reproduce, distribute, modify, adapt, prepare derivative works of, display, perform, and otherwise exploit such incorporated or utilized Prior Inventions, without restriction, including, without limitation, as part of or in connection with such Invention, and to practice any method related thereto. Consultant will not incorporate any inventions, discoveries, ideas, original works of authorship, developments, improvements, trade secrets, and other proprietary information or intellectual property rights owned by any third party into any Invention without Company’s prior written permission.
C.Moral Rights. Any assignment to the Company of Inventions includes all rights of attribution, paternity, integrity, modification, disclosure and withdrawal, and any other rights throughout the world that may be known as or referred to as “moral rights,” “artist’s rights,” “droit moral,” or the like (collectively, “Moral Rights”). To the extent that Moral Rights cannot be assigned under applicable law, Consultant hereby waives and agrees not to enforce any and all Moral Rights, including, without limitation, any limitation on subsequent modification, to the extent permitted under applicable law.
D.Maintenance of Records. Consultant agrees to keep and maintain adequate, current, accurate, and authentic written records of all Inventions made by Consultant (solely or jointly with others) during the term of this Agreement, and for a period of three (3) years thereafter. The records will be in the form of notes, sketches, drawings, electronic files, reports, or any other format that is customary in the industry and/or otherwise specified by the Company. As between the Company and Consultant, the records are and will be available to and remain the sole property of the Company at all times and upon Company’s request, Consultant shall deliver (or cause to be delivered) the same.
E.Further Assurances. Consultant agrees to assist the Company, or its designee, at the Company’s expense, in every proper way to secure the Company’s rights in the Inventions in any and all countries, including the disclosure to the Company of all pertinent information and data with respect thereto, the execution of all applications, specifications, oaths, assignments and all other instruments that the Company shall deem proper or necessary in order to apply for, register, obtain, maintain, defend, and enforce such rights, and in order to deliver, assign and convey to the Company, its successors, assigns and nominees the sole and exclusive rights, title, and interest in and to all Inventions, and testifying in a suit or other proceeding relating to such Inventions. Consultant further agrees that Consultant’s obligations under this Section 3.E shall continue after the termination of this Agreement.
F.Attorney-in-Fact. Consultant agrees that, if the Company is unable because of Consultant’s unavailability, dissolution, mental or physical incapacity, or for any other reason, to secure Consultant’s signature with respect to any Inventions, including, without limitation, for the purpose of applying for or pursuing any application for any United States or foreign patents or mask work or copyright registrations covering the Inventions assigned to the Company in Section 3.A, then Consultant hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as Consultant’s agent and attorney-in-fact, to act for and on Consultant’s behalf to execute and file any papers and oaths and to do all other lawfully permitted acts with respect to such Inventions to further the prosecution and issuance of patents, copyright and mask work

(THE “FAA”). THE FAA’S SUBSTANTIVE AND PROCEDURAL PROVISIONS SHALL EXCLUSIVELY GOVERN AND APPLY WITH FULL
FORCE AND EFFECT TO THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT, INCLUDING ITS ENFORCEMENT, AND ANY STATE COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION SHALL stay proceedings pending arbitration or COMPEL ARBITRATION IN THE SAME MANNER AS A FEDERAL COURT UNDER THE FAA. CONSULTANT FURTHER AGREES THAT, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CONSULTANT MAY BRING ANY ARBITRATION PROCEEDING ONLY IN CONSULTANT’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR COLLECTIVE ACTION, LAWSUIT OR PROCEEDING. CONSULTANT AGREES THAT ANY CLAIMS THAT CONSULTANT MAY BRING PURSUANT TO THE PRIVATE ATTORNEYS GENERAL ACT (“PAGA”) ON BEHALF OF THE LABOR AND WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT AGENCY MUST BE ARBITRATED ONLY IN CONSULTANT’S INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY WITHOUT ANY JOINDER OR REPRESENTATION OF ANY CALIFORNIA LABOR CODE VIOLATIONS THAT WERE OR COULD BE ASSERTED BY OR ON BEHALF OF ANY OTHER PERSONS.

WITH RESPECT TO ALL SUCH CLAIMS AND DISPUTES THAT CONSULTANT AGREEs TO ARBITRATE, CONSULTANT HEREBY EXPRESSLY AGREES TO WAIVE, AND DOES WAIVE, ANY RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY. Consultant further understands that this Agreement to arbitrate also applies to any disputes that the Company may have with Consultant. CONSULTANT UNDERSTANDS THAT NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT REQUIRES CONSULTANT TO ARBITRATE CLAIMS THAT CANNOT BE ARBITRATED UNDER THE SARBANES-OXLEY ACT or other law that expressly prohibits arbitration of a claim notwithstanding the application of the faa.
B.Administration of Arbitration. Consultant agrees that any arbitration will be administered by JAMS pursuant to its EMPLOYMENT Arbitration Rules & Procedures (the “JAMS employment Rules”), WHICH ARE AVAILABLE AT http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration/.

IN THE EVENT OF ANY CONFLICT BETWEEN THE TERMS OF THIS SECTION AND THE JAMS RULES, THIS SECTION SHALL TAKE PRECEDENCE.

CONSULTANT UNDERSTANDS THAT THE COMPANY WILL PAY FOR ANY ADMINISTRATIVE OR HEARING FEES CHARGED BY THE ARBITRATOR OR JAMS, EXCEPT THAT CONSULTANT SHALL PAY ANY FILING FEES ASSOCIATED WITH ANY ARBITRATION THAT CONSULTANT INITIATES, BUT ONLY SO MUCH OF THE FILING FEES AS CONSULTANT WOULD HAVE INSTEAD PAID HAD CONSULTANT FILED A COMPLAINT IN A COURT OF LAW THAT WOULD HAVE HAD JURISDICTION OVER SUCH COMPLAINT.

D.Administrative Relief. Consultant understands that this Agreement does not prohibit Consultant from pursuing AN Administrative claim with A local, state or federal administrative BODY OR GOVERNMENT AGENCY such as the CALIFORNIA CIVIL RIGHTS DEPARTMENT, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, the National Labor Relations Board, THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION, or the workers’ compensation board. this agreement does, however, preclUde consultant from bringing any alleged wage claims with the Department of labor standards enforcement. Likewise, This Agreement does preclude Consultant from pursuing A court action regarding any SUCH CLAIM, except as permitted by law.

Consultant acknowledges and agrees that CONSULTANT is executing this Agreement voluntarily and without any duress or undue influence by the Company or anyone else.

that Consultant is waiving CONSULTANT’S right to a jury trial.

THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS TO BE ENFORCED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. ACCORDINGLY, consultant AGREEs THAT IF A COURT OR OTHER BODY OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION FINDS THAT ANY PROVISION OR PORTION OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IS INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE, SUCH PROVISION OR PORTION, AS APPLICABLE, SHALL BE ENFORCED TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY APPLICABLE LAW OR, IF NECESSARY, SEVERED, AND THE REMAINDER OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WILL CONTINUE WITH FULL FORCE AND EFFECT.
A.Governing Law; Consent to Personal Jurisdiction.
