2006 Stock Incentive Plan

 

The Company’s 2006 Stock Option Plan (“2006 Plan”) was established for granting stock incentive awards to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company.  Upon closing of the Company’s IPO in August 2014, the Company ceased granting stock incentive awards under the 2006 Plan.  The 2006 Plan provided for the grant of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock grants as determined by the Company’s board of directors.  Under the 2006 Plan, stock options were generally granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the fair value of the common stock as determined by the board of directors, expired no later than 10 years from the date of grant, and vest over various periods not exceeding 4 years.

 

2014 Stock Incentive Plan

 

The Company’s 2014 Plan (“2014 Plan”, and together with the 2016 Plan, the “Plans”) provides for the issuance of shares of common stock in the form of stock options, awards of restricted stock, awards of restricted stock units, performance awards, dividend equivalent awards, stock payment awards and stock appreciation rights to directors, officers, employees and consultants of the Company. Since the establishment of the 2014 Plan, the Company has only granted stock options.  Generally, stock options are granted with exercise prices equal to or greater than the fair value of the common stock on the date of grant, expire no later than 10 years from the date of grant, and vest over various periods not exceeding 4 years.

 

The number of shares reserved for future issuance under the 2014 Plan is the sum of (1) 823,529 shares, (2) any shares that were granted under the 2006 Plan which are forfeited, lapsed unexercised or are settled in cash subsequent to the effective date of the 2014 Plan and (3) an annual increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning January 1, 2015 and ending on January 1, 2024, equal to the lesser of (A) 823,529 shares, (B) 4% of the shares outstanding (on an as-converted basis) on the final day of the immediately preceding calendar year, and (C) such smaller number of shares determined by the Company’s board of directors.   As of March 31, 2015 there were 878,282 shares available for future grant under the 2014 Plan.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

 

The Company’s 2014 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “2014 ESPP”) provides initially for granting up to 220,588 shares of the Company’s common stock to eligible employees.  The 2014 ESPP plan period is semi-annual and allows participants to purchase the Company’s common stock at 85% of the lower of (i) the market value per share of common stock on the first day of the offering period or (ii) the market value per share of the common stock on the purchase date.  Each participant can purchase up to a maximum of $25,000 per year in fair market value of such shares of common stock, as determined by the market value per share of common stock at the beginning of the offering period.  The first 2014 ESPP plan period began on August 7, 2014.  Stock-based compensation expense from the 2014 ESPP for the three-months ended March 31, 2015 was $60,000.
