From time to time, the Company grants stock options and restricted stock units (“RSUs”) to its employees, including the named executive officers. Historically, the Company has granted new-hire option awards on or soon after a new hire’s employment start date and annual refresh employee option grants in the second quarter of each fiscal year, which refresh grants are typically approved at the regularly scheduled meeting of the Compensation Committee and the Board occurring in such quarter. Also, non-employee directors receive automatic grants of initial and annual stock option awards, at the time of a director’s initial appointment or election to the Board and at the time of each annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders, respectively, pursuant to the non-employee director compensation policy described above. The Company does not otherwise maintain any written policies on the timing of awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, or similar instruments with option-like features. The Compensation Committee and the Board consider whether there is any material nonpublic information about the Company when determining the timing of stock option grants and does not seek to time the award of stock options in relation to the Company’s public disclosure of material nonpublic information. The Company has not timed the release of material nonpublic information for the purpose of affecting the value of executive compensation.
