Stock Incentive Plan

 

On February 12, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved our 2019 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”), which had been adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) as of December 10, 2019. The 2019 Plan provides for the issuance of up to 10,000,000 shares of common stock to the Company and its subsidiaries’ employees, officers, directors, consultants and advisors, stock options (non-statutory and incentive), restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and other performance stock awards. Options granted under the 2019 Plan may either be intended to qualify as incentive stock options under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, or may be non-qualified options, and are exercisable over periods not exceeding ten years from date of grant. Unless sooner terminated in accordance with its terms, the Stock Plan will terminate on December 10, 2029.
