Narrative Disclosure to the Director Compensation Table
The Company has not established a formal compensation arrangement for its non-employee directors but anticipates that they will initially be compensated with periodic grant of options under the 2016 Incentive Stock Plan, in the discretion of the board of directors. Non-employee directors are also reimbursed for travel and lodging expenses in connection with their attendance at in-person meetings of the board. When the Company is sufficiently capitalized, the Company may institute payment of cash directors’ fees to its non-employee directors in amounts to be determined at that time.
2016 Incentive Stock Plan
Our 2016 Incentive Stock Plan (the**“Incentive Stock Plan**”) provides for equity incentives to be granted to our employees, executive officers or directors or to key advisers or consultants. Equity incentives may be in the form of stock options with an exercise price not less than the fair market value of the underlying shares as determined pursuant to the 2016 Plan, restricted stock awards, other stock-based awards, or any combination of the foregoing. In the absence of a compensation committee, the 2016 Plan was administered by the board of directors. However, with the recent constitution of compensation committee, the Plan will henceforth be administered by the compensation committee, 3,000,000 shares of our common stock were originally reserved for issuance pursuant to the exercise of awards under the 2016 Plan. In August 2019, our board of directors and our majority shareholders approved an increase in the number of shares reserved under the 2016 Plan to 10,000,000 shares of our common stock. Our board of directors and majority shareholders in July 2022, approved a subsequent increase in the number of shares of our common stock reserved under the 2016 Plan to 20,000,000 shares of common stock. Our board of directors and majority shareholders in October 2023 mandated to keep 10% of our issued and outstanding common shares reserved under the 2016 Incentive Stock Plan. As of December 31, 2024, we have granted options to purchase 7,767,431 shares under the 2016 Plan, exercisable at $5.00 per share and 4,375,407 shares in stock grants.
