11. Stock Incentive Plan

 

The Company's stock-based compensation awards are issued under the Laird Superfood, Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended, the "2020 Plan"). At the Company's Annual Meeting for Stockholders held on June 25, 2026, the Shareholders of the Company approved the 2020 Plan to (i) increase the aggregate number of shares of common stock of the Company available for issuance under the 2020 Plan by 3,876,836 shares, to a total of 6,000,000 shares, (ii) to extend the term of the 2020 Plan to May 22, 2036, and (iii) to modify the 2020 Plan's evergreen provision, by extending such provision an additional two years so that the last increase pursuant to the provision will be made on January 1, 2036, rather than January 1, 2034. 

 

For a description of the 2020 Plan, including the types of awards permitted, share authorization, vesting terms, and the methodologies used to determine the grant-date fair value of stock options and other awards, see Note 10 to the consolidated financial statements in the 2025 Form 10-K.
