Of the unvested restricted stock outstanding and stock options outstanding as of March 31, 2019, 71,875 are performance-based restricted stock units and 213,750 are performance-based stock options. The performance-based restricted stock units and performance-based stock options vest upon obtaining certain scientific and regulatory milestones through 2020.  At March 31, 2019, 71,875 performance-based restricted stock units and 188,750 performance-based options are not included in computing the diluted (loss) earnings per share because the performance criteria had not been met as of the end of the reporting period.
