NOTE 8: Equity Compensation Plans

Long Term Incentive Plan

On May 18, 2022, our stockholders approved our 2022 Long Term Incentive Plan (the “2022 Incentive Plan”). The 2022 Incentive Plan provides for grants of equity and equity-based awards to our employees, officers, directors, consultants and other service providers, and such awards may take the form of restricted or unrestricted shares of common stock, non-qualified stock options, incentive stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), dividend equivalents and other equity and cash-based awards. A maximum of 8,000,000 shares of our common stock may be issued under the 2022 Incentive Plan (plus up to an additional 702,300 shares of our common stock remain available from our prior incentive plan, to the extent that shares subject to outstanding awards under a prior plan are recycled into the 2022 Incentive Plan), subject to customary adjustment for stock splits, reverse stock splits and similar corporate events or transactions affecting shares of our common stock.

The restricted shares and RSUs granted under the Incentive Plan generally vest or vested over a two- to four-year period. In addition, we have granted unrestricted shares to our non-employee directors. These awards generally vest or vested immediately. A summary of restricted and unrestricted common share awards and RSU activity is presented below.

On February 3, 2026, our compensation committee awarded 194,574 performance share units (“PSUs”) (measured at target) to our executive officers. The number of PSUs earned will be based on attainment of certain performance criteria over a three-year period, with the actual number of shares issuable ranging between 0% and 150% of the target number of PSUs granted. Half of any PSUs earned will vest, and shares will be issued in respect thereof, immediately following the end of the three-year performance period; the remaining half of any PSUs earned will vest, and shares will be issued in respect thereof, after an additional one-year period of service.

During the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, a portion of the RSUs and PSUs granted were issued to employees who are retirement eligible. The fact that the grantees are retirement eligible resulted in immediate recognition of the associated stock-based compensation expense totaling $2,437 and $2,826, respectively.
