Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
The Registrants certificate of incorporation provides that a director and officer will not be liable to the Registrant
or its stockholders for monetary damages for certain breaches of duty of care to the fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the DGCL). In addition, if the DGCL is amended to authorize the further elimination or
limitation of the liability of directors or officers, then the liability of a director or officer of the Registrant, in addition to the limitation on personal liability provided for in the Registrants certificate of incorporation, will be
limited to the fullest extent permitted by the amended DGCL.
In addition, the Registrants bylaws provide that the
Registrant will indemnify, and advance expenses to, any officer or director to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL.
Specifically, under the Registrants bylaws, in accordance with Section 145 of the DGCL, the Registrants
directors and officers are eligible for indemnification against expenses, including attorneys fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits, and proceedings whether civil, criminal,
administrative, or investigative, other than a derivative action by or in the right of the corporation, if they acted in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with
respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification extends only to expenses, including
attorneys fees, incurred in connection with the defense or settlement of such action and, in accordance with the DGCL, the bylaws requires court approval before there can be any indemnification where the person seeking indemnification has been
found liable to the corporation. The bylaws provide that it is not exclusive of other indemnification that may be granted by a corporations certificate of incorporation, bylaws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement, or
otherwise. In addition, as permitted under the DGCL, the Registrant may provide indemnification and/or advancement to any other employees or agents of the Registrant and its subsidiaries. The Registrants bylaws also provide that the
Registrants is the indemnitor of first resort for directors affiliated with the Registrants controlling stockholder.
The Registrant has entered into written indemnification agreements with its directors and executive officers, which provide
its directors and executive officers with contractual rights to indemnification, and expense advancement and reimbursement, to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL and as summarized above, subject to certain exceptions contained in those
agreements.
Further, the Registrant maintains directors and officers insurance to cover its directors,
officers, and some of its employees for certain liabilities.
The Inducement Awards are granted outside of the Petco
Health and Wellness Company, Inc. 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended from time to time, the 2021 Plan), but are subject to terms and conditions substantially identical to the terms and conditions set forth in the 2021 Plan. The 2021
Plan provides protection for members of the Registrants board or directors or a committee thereof acting under the 2021 Plan for their reliance in good faith upon the advice of counsel, and provides that such individuals shall incur no
liability except for as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of their duties with respect to the 2021 Plan.
