Item 9B. Other Information
On March 14, 2024, our Board of Directors unanimously approved, subject to stockholder approval, an amendment to the Company’s 2021 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2021 Plan”), increasing by 4,500,000 shares the number of shares of our common stock that will be available for issuance of awards under the 2021 Plan. The 2021 Plan as adopted and approved by our shareholders originally authorized awards for up to 1,500,000 shares of our common stock. On May 25, 2022, shareholders approved an amendment to the 2021 Plan to increase the shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance thereunder by 3,900,000 shares. On May 25, 2023, shareholders approved an amendment to the 2021 Plan to increase the shares of the Company’s common stock available for issuance thereunder by 2,500,000.
The purpose of the 2021 Plan is to (a) enable the Company and its affiliates to attract and retain the types of employees, directors and consultants who will contribute to the Company’s long range success; (b) provide incentives that align the interests of employees, consultants and directors with those of the stockholders of the Company; and (c) promote the success of the Company’s business, thus enhancing the value of the Company for the benefit of its stockholders.
Administration. The 2021 Plan will be administered by a committee (the “Committee”), or in the Board’s sole discretion by the Board. In case no Committee has been appointed, the Board may appoint one or more members of the Board appointed by the Board to administer the 2021 Plan in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Plan. The Board has appointed the Compensation Committee of the Board to administer the 2021 Plan.
Shares Available for Awards. Subject to shareholder approval of the most recent amendment to the 2021 Plan, and to adjustment in certain circumstances in accordance with the terms of the 2021 Plan, we will reserve for issuance under the 2021 Plan no more than 12,400,000 shares of common stock (subject to adjustment in certain circumstances as provided in the 2021 Plan). Shares of Common Stock available for distribution under the 2021 Plan may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares, treasury shares or shares reacquired by the Company in any manner. Shares of Common Stock subject to an award that expires or is canceled, forfeited, or terminated without issuance of the full number of shares of Common Stock to which the award related, as well as any shares of common stock subject to an award that are (a) tendered in payment of an option, (b) delivered or withheld by the company to satisfy any tax withholding obligation, or (c) covered by a stock-settled stock appreciation right or other awards that were not issued upon the settlement of the award, shall be added back to the shares of common stock available for issuance of awards or delivery under the 2021 Plan.
Available Awards. Awards that may be granted under the 2021 plan include: (a) incentive stock options, (b) non-qualified stock options, (c) stock appreciation rights, (d) restricted awards, (e) performance share awards, (f) cash awards, and (g) other equity-based awards.
Recipients of Grants. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees. Awards other than incentive stock options may be granted to employees, consultants and directors and those individuals whom the Committee or the Board determines are reasonably expected to become employees, consultants and directors following the grant date. Our principal executive officer, principal financial officer and other named executive officers are eligible to participate in and receive awards under the 2021 Plan.
Term.
The 2021 Plan has a term of ten years.
This summary of the 2021 Plan is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the 2021 Plan, which is filed as Exhibit 10.33 to this Report and is incorporated by reference herein.
The proposed amendment to the 2021 Plan will be submitted for the approval of our shareholders at our 2024 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. If the proposed amendment is not approved by the shareholders, the 2021 Plan will remain effective with respect to the number of shares of common stock originally authorized. Options for 4,363,250 shares of commons stock were issued in December 2023 subject to approval by the shareholders of this amendment. If the amendment is not approved, such options will be void, but the recipients thereof will receive identical options for a pro-rata share of any shares available for issuance of awards under the 2021 Plan immediately after the shareholder meeting.
