2018 Incentive Compensation Plan

Our 2018 Plan was designed to serve as an incentive for attracting and retaining qualified and motivated employees, officers, directors, consultants and other persons who provide services to us. The compensation committee of our board of directors had the authority to administer and interpret the 2018 Plan and was authorized to grant stock options and other equity awards thereunder to all eligible employees of our company, including non-employee consultants to our company and directors.

The 2018 Plan provides for the granting of “incentive stock options” (as defined in Section 422 of the Code), non-statutory stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock, dividend equivalents, bonus stock and awards in lieu of cash compensation, other stock-based awards and performance awards. Options may be granted under the 2018 Plan on such terms and at such prices as determined by the compensation committee of the board, except that the per share exercise price of the stock options cannot be less than the fair market value of our common stock on the date of the grant. Each option will be exercisable after the period or periods specified in the stock option agreement, but all stock options must be exercised within ten years from the date of grant. Options granted under the 2018 Plan are not transferable other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution. The compensation committee of the board has the authority to amend or terminate the 2018 Plan, provided that no amendment shall be made without stockholder approval if such stockholder approval is necessary to comply with any tax or regulatory requirement. Unless terminated sooner, the 2018 Plan will terminate ten years from its effective date. The 2018 Plan also provides that no participant may receive stock options or other awards under the 2018 Plan that in the aggregate equal more than 30% of all options or awards issued over the life of the 2018 Plan. During the term of the 2018 Plan, we did not issue any stock options to officers, directors or employees.

None of the 25,000 shares issuable under the 2018 Plan have been issued, and the Company does not plan to issue these or any additional shares under the 2018 Plan.

The reservation of shares under the Incentive Compensation Plan was cancelled in May 2021. The 2018 Plan was replaced by the 2025 Plan as of March 17, 2025.

2025 Incentive Compensation Plan

On February 13, 2025, our Board and Majority Shareholders approved and ratified the Company’s 2025 Incentive Compensation Plan (the “2025 Plan”), covering up to 2,147,024 shares of common stock. The purpose of the 2025 Plan is to advance the interests of the Company and our related corporations by enhancing the ability of the Company to attract and retain qualified employees, consultants, officers, and directors, by creating incentives and rewards for their contributions to the success of the Company and its related corporations. The 2025 Plan is administered by our Board or by the Compensation Committee. The 2025 Plan was put into effect on March 17, 2025. The following awards may be granted under the 2025 Plan:

Options

Options to purchase common stock may be incentive stock options meeting the requirements of Section 422 of the Code, or nonqualified options which are not eligible for such tax-favored treatment. Up to 20% of our outstanding shares, representing 2,147,024 shares of common stock, may be issued pursuant to incentive stock options under the 2025 Plan. Incentive stock options will conform with the statutory and regulatory requirements specified pursuant to Section 422 of the Code, as in effect on the date such incentive stock option is granted. Incentive stock options may not be granted under the 2025 Plan after February 13, 2035, and may only be granted to employees of the Company or one of its subsidiaries. If options intended to be incentive stock options are granted to a participant in excess of the $100,000 annual limitation set forth in Section 422(d)(1) of the Code, the options will be incentive stock options to the maximum extent allowed and will be nonqualified stock options as to any excess over that limitation. Incentive stock options must expire not more than 10 years from the date of grant. The 2025 Plan does not specify a maximum term for nonqualified options. The exercise price per share must be not less than 100% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted for both incentive stock options and nonqualified options. Incentive stock options granted to a participant holding more than 10% of the common stock must expire not more than five years from the date of grant, and the exercise price per share must be not less than 110% of the fair market value of a share of common stock on the date the option is granted.

Restricted Awards

Restricted Awards may take the form of restricted shares. Restricted shares are shares of common stock which are subject to such limitations as the Board, or Compensation Committee deems appropriate, including, but not limited to, restrictions on sale or transfer. Additionally, restricted shares may be subject to forfeiture in the event the recipient terminates employment or service as a director or consultant during a specified period, or fails to meet designated performance goals, if any. Stock certificates representing restricted shares are issued in the name of the recipient but are held by the Company until the expiration of any restrictions, at which time the restrictive legends are removed from the stock certificates. Beginning with the date of issuance of restricted shares and prior to forfeiture, the recipient is entitled to the rights of a stockholder with respect to such shares, including voting and dividend rights. Shares issued as stock dividends will be subject to the same restrictions as the related restricted shares.

Other Stock-Based Awards

The Board, or Compensation Committee may grant other awards that involve payments or grants of shares of common stock or are measured by or in relation to shares of common stock. The 2025 Plan provides flexibility to design new types of stock-based or stock-related awards to attract and retain employees, directors and consultants in a competitive environment.

The Board had delegated administrative authority with respect to the 2025 Plan to the Compensation Committee. The 2025 Plan will remain in effect until February 13, 2035, or, if earlier, when awards have been granted covering all available shares under the 2025 Plan or the 2025 Plan is otherwise terminated by the Board. The Board may terminate the 2025 Plan at any time, but any such termination will not affect any outstanding awards. The Board may also amend the 2025 Plan from time to time, provided that no amendment may be made without stockholder approval if such approval is required by applicable law or the requirements of an applicable stock exchange or registered securities association.
