RESTRICTED STOCK AND WARRANTS

NOTE 6 – RESTRICTED STOCK AND WARRANTS

 

On November 14, 2017, the Executive Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”) which covered the potential issuance of 260,000 shares of common stock. The 2017 Plan provided that directors, officers, employees, and consultants of the Company were eligible to receive equity incentives under the 2017 Plan at the discretion of the Board or the Board’s Compensation Committee.

 

On August 10, 2020, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “2020 Plan”) and on September 30, 2020, the Company’s stockholders approved the 2020 Plan, which authorizes the potential issuance of up to 1,069,110 shares of common stock. Upon effectiveness of the 2020 Plan the 2017 Plan was terminated. Shares of common stock underlying existing awards under the 2017 Plan may become available for issuance pursuant to the terms of the 2020 Plan under certain circumstances. Employees and non-employee directors of the Company or its affiliates, and other individuals who perform services for the Company or any of its affiliates, are eligible to receive awards under the 2020 Plan at the discretion of the Board of Directors or the Board’s Compensation Committee.

 

On March 28, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the First Amendment to the 2020 Plan and on June 9, 2022, the Company’s stockholders approved the First Amendment to the 2020 Plan, which increased the shares authorized for potential issuance under the 2020 Plan to 2,069,100 shares of common stock and extended the term of the 2020 Plan to June 9, 2023. On April 17, 2023, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Second Amendment to the 2020 Plan and on June 6, 2023, the Company’s stockholders approved the Second Amendment to the 2020 Plan, which increased the shares authorized for potential issuance under the 2020 Plan to 3,069,110 shares of common stock and extended the term of the 2020 Plan to June 6, 2033, and increased the annual cap on director compensation by $50 thousand. On March 18, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Third Amendment to the 2020 Plan, which on June 4, 2024, was approved by the Company’s stockholders, which increased the shares authorized for potential issuance under the 2020 Plan to 4,069,100 shares of common stock and extended the term of the 2020 Plan to June 4, 2034. On April 13, 2026, the Company’s Board of Directors adopted the Fourth Amendment to the 2020 Plan, which will not be effected unless it is approved by the Company’s stockholders. If effected, the Fourth Amendment would increase the shares authorized for potential issuance under the 2020 Plan by 16,182,541 shares of common stock and would extend the term of the 2020 Plan to the 10th anniversary of the date stockholder approval is obtained.

 

The 2020 Plan, as amended, is administered by the Compensation Committee which determines the persons to whom awards will be granted, the number of awards to be granted and the specific terms of each grant, including the vesting thereof, subject to the provisions of the plan.

At-the-Market Equity Offering Program

 

On March 6, 2025, the Company entered into a now terminated At-The-Market Sales Agreement (“Sales Agreement”) with Roth Capital Partners, LLC (“Roth”), pursuant to which the Company could issue and sell, from time to time, shares of its common stock up to an aggregate offering price of $15.8 million (“ATM Program”). Roth acted as the Company’s sales agent and was entitled to a 3.0% commission on gross proceeds from sales under the ATM Program.
