Stock-Based Compensation Stock-Based Compensation
WAHA and SPRE sponsored a stock-based compensation plan known as the 2022 Plan (the “Plan”). The number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the Plan, prior to the corporate roll-up into the Company, was 74,000. Pursuant to the contribution and exchange agreement with the Company, the total number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance are 1,461,307 shares.
The Plan allows the Company to grant incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options. The persons eligible to receive awards are the employees, consultants and directors of the Company and its affiliates. Other than incentive stock options that are granted to a shareholder who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the stock of the Company or of its parent or affiliates (a “Ten Percent Shareholder”), stock options are exercisable for up to ten years from the grant date, at an option price per share not less than the fair market value on the date the option is granted. A Ten Percent Shareholder shall not be granted an incentive stock option unless the option exercise price is at least 110% of the fair market value of the common stock at the grant date and the option is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the grant date. Incentive stock options may be granted to employees of the Company or any subsidiary corporation. Awards other than incentive stock options may be granted to employees, consultants and directors. The option vesting schedule for options granted is determined at the time of the grant. The Plan provides for accelerated vesting of unvested options in the event of a change in control.
Pursuant to the contribution and exchange agreement, the number of options outstanding as of the date of the agreement were converted in accordance with the Company’s conversion ratio. The following is a summary of stock option activity during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and for the year ended December 31, 2025, effective for the conversion:
