2024 Equity Incentive Plan
At the Annual and Special Meeting of Shareholders on September 30, 2024, the Company’s shareholders approved the Acasti Pharma Inc. 2024 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2024 Plan”) which became effective on the date of the Domestication. The 2024 Plan replaced the Acasti Pharma Inc. Stock Option Plan and the Acasti Pharma Inc. Equity Incentive Plan (the “Prior Plans”). The 2024 Plan provides for the grant of awards of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, deferred stock units, unrestricted stock, dividend equivalent rights, performance-based awards and other equity-based awards to eligible persons as defined under the 2024 Plan. Any of these awards may, but need not, be made as performance incentives to reward the holders of such awards for the achievement of performance goals in accordance with the terms of the 2024 Plan. Stock options granted under the 2024 Plan may be non-qualified stock options or incentive stock options, as provided in the 2024 Plan.
In connection with the Continuance and the Domestication, the Company continues its obligations under the Prior Plans and all of the outstanding equity awards under the Prior Plans. Upon effectiveness of the Continuance, each outstanding option exercisable for and restricted share unit settleable into Common Shares remained exercisable for or able to be settled into an equivalent number of common shares of Acasti British Columbia for the equivalent exercise price per share (if applicable), without any action by the holder. Upon effectiveness of the Domestication, each outstanding option exercisable for and restricted share unit settleable into common shares of Acasti British Columbia remained exercisable for or able to be settled into an equivalent number of shares of Common Stock for the equivalent exercise price per share (if applicable), without any action by the holder.
Following the Effective Date of the 2024 Plan, no awards shall be made under the Prior Plans. However, Common Shares reserved under the Prior Plans to settle awards which were made under the Prior Plans may be issued and delivered following the Effective Date to settle such awards.
The 2024 Plan is administered by a committee designated from time to time, by resolution of the Company’s Board of Directors. The committee will also be responsible for determining, among others, the key terms of the awards including their grant dates, pricing, basis for fair value determination, vesting terms, restrictions, and terminations. The Board has designated its Compensation Committee to administer the 2024 Plan. As of June 30, 2025, there were 1,350,000 shares of Common Stock authorized for issuance under the 2024 Plan and 943,470 shares available for future issuance under the 2024 Plan. The 2024 Plan will terminate automatically ten years after the Effective Date and may be terminated on any earlier date as provided by the 2024 Plan. The following table summarizes information about activities within the 2024 Plan and Prior Plans for the three months ended June 30, 2025:
