Ms. Moran will cease her employment as the Company’s Chief Legal Officer, General Counsel and Secretary, effective as of August 23, 2024 (the “Transition Date”).
Pursuant to the Separation and Consulting Agreement, subject to, among other things, Ms. Moran’s execution of a release of claims and continued compliance with applicable restrictive covenant obligations, she will be eligible for cash severance and COBRA continuation benefits consistent with the terms of the Company’s previously disclosed Amended and Restated Vroom, Inc.

Additionally, on July 23, 2024, and effective as of the Transition Date, the Board appointed Anna-Lisa Corrales, the Company’s former Chief Compliance Officer, as Chief Legal Officer, Chief Compliance Officer and Secretary.
