EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Amendment No. 2 on Form 10-K/A (this “Amendment No. 2”) to the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Thumzup Media Corporation (the “Company,” “Thumzup,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) for the year ended December 31, 2024, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 11, 2025 (the “Original 10-K”), is being filed solely for the purposes of correcting certain executive compensation information in Item 11 “Executive Compensation”. On April 30, 2025, the Company filed Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) to the Original 10-K, for the purposes of including the information required by Part III (Items 10-14) of Form 10-K.

Further, because the Company is a “smaller reporting company,” as defined in Item 10 of Regulation S-K promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”), the Company has elected to provide in this Amendment No. 2 certain scaled disclosures permitted under the Exchange Act for smaller reporting companies. Except as set forth in this Amendment No. 2, no other changes are made to the Original 10-K. Unless expressly stated, this Amendment No. 2 does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original 10-K, nor does it modify or otherwise update in any way the disclosures contained in the Original 10-K. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 2 should be read in conjunction with the Original 10-K and Amendment No. 1 and with the Company’s filings with the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original 10-K and Amendment No. 1.

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 2 also contains certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which are attached hereto. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 2 and this Amendment No. 2 does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4, and 5 of the certifications have been omitted.

Narrative Summary to Director Compensation.

The director compensation structure is designed to attract and retain experienced, independent Board members and is intended to align the directors’ interests with those of Company shareholders. All compensation arrangements described above supersede any prior agreements.

For fiscal 2024, independent directors of the Company received compensation for Board and committee service, as applicable, consisting of both cash compensation and equity grants, as detailed in the Director Compensation Table. Amounts in the Director Compensation Table reflect compensation earned in the fiscal year, whether paid in cash or equity and all outstanding grants as of December 31, 2024.

Cash Compensation:

Each non-employee director is entitled to receive a cash retainer of $2,500 per month, which includes payment for Board service and for acting as chair on one committee (as noted below). The amount of cash compensation may be subject to review if the Company raises an additional $15 million in financing.

Equity Awards:

On the Effective Date of their appointment (which occurred on October 29, 2024, upon the Company’s listing on a national exchange), each director was granted an option under the Plan (subject to the terms and conditions of the Company’s form of Stock Option Agreement under the Plan) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, as follows (the “Director Options”):

Other Benefits:

Directors are eligible for reimbursement of reasonable, pre-qualified business expenses incurred in the performance of their duties. The Company does not currently offer pension, deferred compensation, or other perquisites to independent directors beyond standard expense reimbursement.

Clawback and Recovery Policy.

All equity awards (including the Steele Option, the Dietrich Option, and the Director Options) are subject to the Company’s clawback policy, in accordance with applicable SEC rules and exchange listing standards, including the Dodd-Frank Act requirements. No clawback or recovery was applied in fiscal 2024.

Disclosure of the Company’s policies and practices related to the grant of certain equity awards close in time to the release of material nonpublic information.

The Company does not have a written policy in place regarding the timing of the grant and issuance of stock options in relation to the release of material non-public information. Historically, the Company has granted stock option awards on an annual basis and as may otherwise be deemed appropriate by our Board or compensation committee from time to time based on the facts and circumstances, as applicable. The Company has not intentionally timed the grant of stock options in anticipation of the release of material nonpublic information, nor have we intentionally timed the release of material nonpublic information based on stock option grant dates. During fiscal year 2024, the Company did not grant stock options (or similar awards) to any of our named executive officers during the period beginning four business days before and ending one business day after the filing of any Company periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of any Company Form 8-K that disclosed any material non-public information.

Our Equity Incentive Plans

The Company maintains the Thumzup Media Corporation 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), which was adopted by the Board of Directors and approved by stockholders. The Plan is intended to promote the interests of the Company and its shareholders by enabling the Company to recruit and retain key employees, directors, and consultants, and to align their interests with those of shareholders through equity participation. Our Stockholders approved the Plan in May 2024, and initially reserved 1,000,000 shares for issuance under the Plan. In July 2024, our Stockholders amended the Plan to increase the number of shares issuable thereunder to 2,000,000.

The Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options, non-statutory stock options, stock bonus awards, restricted stock awards, performance stock awards and other forms of stock compensation to our employees, including officers, consultants and directors. Our Plan also provides that the grant of performance stock awards may be paid out in cash as determined by the Committee (as defined herein).

Summary of the Plan

Authorized Shares

There are currently 682,967 shares of the 2,000,000 reserved shares of our common stock available for issuance pursuant to the 2024 Plan. Shares of common stock issued under our Plan may be authorized but unissued or reacquired shares of our common stock. Shares of common stock subject to stock awards granted under our Plan that expire or terminate without being exercised in full, or that are paid out in cash rather than in shares of common stock, will not reduce the number of shares of common stock available for issuance under our Plan. Additionally, shares of common stock issued pursuant to stock awards under our Plan that we repurchase or that are forfeited, as well as shares of common stock reacquired by us as consideration for the exercise or purchase price of a stock award, will become available for future grant under our Plan.

Administration

Our Board, or a duly authorized committee thereof (collectively, the “Committee”), has the authority to administer our Plan. Our Board may also delegate to one or more of our officers the authority to designate employees other than Directors and officers to receive specified stock, which, in respect to those awards, said officer or officers shall then have all authority that the Committee would have.

Subject to the terms of our Plan, the Committee has the authority to determine the terms of awards, including recipients, the exercise price or strike price of stock awards, if any, the number of shares of common stock subject to each stock award, the fair market value of a share of our common stock, the vesting schedule applicable to the awards, together with any vesting acceleration, the form of consideration, if any, payable upon exercise or settlement of the stock award and the terms and conditions of the award agreements for use under the Plan. The Committee has the power to modify outstanding awards under the Plan, subject to the terms of the Plan and applicable law. Subject to the terms of our Plan, the Committee has the authority to reprice any outstanding option or stock appreciation right, cancel and re-grant any outstanding option or stock appreciation right in exchange for new stock awards, cash or other consideration, or take any other action that is treated as a repricing under generally accepted accounting principles, with the consent of any adversely affected participant.

Stock Options

Stock options may be granted under the Plan. The exercise price of options granted under our Plan must at least be equal to the fair market value of our common stock on the date of grant. The term of an ISO may not exceed 10 years, except that with respect to any participant who owns more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our outstanding stock, the term must not exceed 5 years and the exercise price must equal at least 110% of the fair market value on the grant date. The Committee will determine the methods of payment of the exercise price of an option, which may include cash, shares of common stock or other property acceptable to the Committee, as well as other types of consideration permitted by applicable law. No single participant may receive more than 25% of the total options awarded in any single year. Subject to the provisions of our Plan, the Committee determines the other terms of options.

Performance Shares

Performance shares may be granted under our Plan. Performance shares are awards that will result in a payment to a participant only if performance goals established by the administrator are achieved or the awards otherwise vest. The Committee will establish organizational or individual performance goals or other vesting criteria in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which they are met, will determine the number and/or the value of performance shares to be paid out to participants. After the grant of a performance share, the Committee, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any performance criteria or other vesting provisions for such performance shares. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may pay earned performance units or performance shares in the form of cash, in shares of common stock or in some combination thereof, per the terms of the agreement approved by the Committee and delivered to the participant. Such agreement will state all terms and condition of the agreement.

Restricted Stock

The terms and conditions of any restricted stock awards granted to a participant will be set forth in an award agreement and, subject to the provisions in the Plan, will be determined by the Committee. Under a restricted stock award, we issue shares of our common stock to the recipient of the award, subject to vesting conditions and transfer restrictions that lapse over time or upon achievement of performance conditions. The Committee will determine the vesting schedule and performance objectives, if any, applicable to each restricted stock award. Unless the Committee determines otherwise, the recipient may vote and receive dividends on shares of restricted stock issued under our Plan.

Other Share-Based Awards and Cash Awards

The Committee may make other forms of equity-based awards under our Plan, including, for example, deferred shares, stock bonus awards and dividend equivalent awards. In addition, our Plan authorizes us to make annual and other cash incentive awards based on achieving performance goals that are pre-established by our compensation committee.

Merger, Consolidation or Asset Sale

If the Company is merged or consolidated with another entity or sells or otherwise disposes of substantially all of its assets to another company while awards or options remain outstanding under the Plan, unless provisions are made in connection with such transaction for the continuance of the Plan and/or the assumption or substitution of such awards or options with new options or stock awards covering the stock of the successor company, or parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kind of shares and prices, then all outstanding options and stock awards which have not been continued, assumed or for which a substituted award has not been granted shall, whether or not vested or then exercisable, unless otherwise specified in the relevant agreements, terminate immediately as of the effective date of any such merger, consolidation or sale.

Change in Capitalization

If the Company shall effect a subdivision or consolidation of shares of common stock or other capital readjustment, the payment of a stock dividend, or other increase or reduction of the number of shares of common stock outstanding, without receiving consideration therefore in money, services or property, then awards amounts, type, limitations, and other relevant consideration shall be appropriately and proportionately adjusted. The Committee shall make such adjustments, and its determinations shall be final, binding and conclusive.

Plan Amendment or Termination

Our Board has the authority to amend, suspend, or terminate our Plan, provided that such action does not materially impair the existing rights of any participant without such participant’s written consent. The Plan will terminate ten years after the earlier of (i) the date that the Plan is adopted by the Board, or (ii) the date that the Plan is approved by the stockholders, except that awards that are granted under the Plan prior to its termination will continue to be administered under the terms of the Plan until the awards terminate, expire or are exercised.
